We all go back to our dorms.

"She was a bit violent," Ivy says.

"She has a close bond with her cousin," I say defending Eliza.

"I guess," she sighs.

I decide to change the subject, "What do you want to do?"

"I know Sunny is going to see Luna. Want to go there?"

"Sure," we head to the forest.

When we get there Sunny and Luna are sitting on the floor with a box next to them.

"Hey, what's with the box?" I ask.

"They cleaned out Sebastian's dorm and his stuff is in it," Luna answers.

Sunny pulls something out of the box. "No way!" She pulls out a light grey t-shirt. "This is the shirt he wore when I first met him. When he asked me to the dance. That seems so long ago. It's only been a few months."

"What's this?" Luna says pulling something out of the box. There is a small wooden box in her hands. "Should I open it?"

We all nod and Luna opens it. Inside are many precious looking jewels and rocks.

Sunny smiles, "That's the rock collection he told me about. He found all of the stones when he was little. Before he learned about his powers."

Sunny grabs something from the box. It's another picture. This one is of Sebastian making an extremely stupid face and Sunny laughing in the background.

"You are so sweet together," Ivy says.

Sunny corrects her, "Were."

"Don't think like that," I say.

"I know," she answers, "I shouldn't think like that it just creeps into the back of my mind sometimes. I still can't comprehend he's actually gone."

"None of us can," Luna says with a sad tone in her voice.

"We have to get going," I say.

"What time is it?" Sunny asks?

"Almost 6:00," Ivy answers checking her phone.

We all go back to dorm #4.
