Shades of Moonlight

Chapter 11

Keefe POV

It's been a couple weeks since Luna and Felix moved in with me. I've been leaping over to Everglen almost every day to see Biana and Fitz, they have been teaching me how to braid hair, with Della popping in occasionally.

I really want to surprise Luna. We have been getting closer and have a real bond like real siblings, no we are real siblings. It still doesn't feel like it. I mean we met 4 weeks ago.

"KEEFE! Are you listening" Biana screamed "Yeah." I replied "Okay then what did I say."When I had no response. She said "I said I think you're ready to braid Luna's hair now."

I yell bye to everyone, before light leaping back home. I couldn't wait to braid Luna's hair. "LUNA, LUNA, LUNA! I have a surprise for you!" I yell excitedly, running towards her.

"What is it?" she asks, laughing. "I'm going to braid your hair!" I say happily "Really?" she curiously as she's sitting down. "Hey! I can braid hair." "Okay. I want to see how this turns out."

I start braiding her hair. I separate her hair into 3 pieces and start crossing them in the pattern Bianna taught me. I realise that this is my time to ask Luna for advice.

"Can I ask you something?" "Sure!" "I kind of have a crush on someone... A guy..." I say "And you don't know what to do?" Luna nods sagely. "First, find out if he -. Wait a minute!"

Luna's eyes widen and she starts screeching.

Felix bursts in. "What happened!" "It's nothing, Felix. Keefe just pulled my hair a little too hard." Felix raises an eyebrow but backs out.

"What was that about?" I ask. "You like Felix, don't you." "I have no idea what you're talking about..." I trail off, blushing. "Yes you do." Luna smiles.

"Anyways, I'm done with your hair" I abruptly change the subject. "I love it!" Luna exclaims, a bright smile widening.

Her blonde hair is in a simple braid, but I've added small flowers throughout, as well as some glitter.

Luna POV

Later, Felix enters my room without knocking and groans, flopping down on my bed.

"Well thanks for knocking." I say sarcastically, still admiring my braid.

"I can't do this." He says. "Do what?" This probably has something to do with Keefe.

Speaking of the devil, he's right outside my door listening to every word we say. He's not slick and his shadow kinda gives him away.

"Luna, what do I do? It's torture living with Keefe. I have to see him everyday without him knowing about my crush."

Out of the corner of my eye, I see Keefe's eyes widen and he smirks. I wink at Keefe, knowing that he's going to be flirting with Felix, nonstop, until Felix asks him out.

Felix looks over to where I'm looking, and Keefe ducks out of his sight.

"What are you looking at?" he asked me. "Nothing." "What should I do?" I lean over and whisper to him. "Talk to him." I say with a smile.

Timeskip - The next day

Keefe wanted to try a different braid today, he seems really happy when braiding and he has gotten quite good.

"When did you dye your hair?" he asked. "Huh?" I replied confused. Then I realised my blue streaks! The blond dye must have worn out!

"Oh, this morning." I said quickly. "You can't lie to me, remember. Empath." he said, motioning to himself.

"Oh wait, it happened when you first saw a full moon, right?" "You remember that night?" I asked shocked. I thought she erased everything.

"A bit. Yeah" he said softly. "But I should have remembered these kinds of things. I mean come on you're my twin. I should know you better." "Hey, it's not your fault." I comfort him.

"Now stop pouting before you make me sad, and help me dye it."
