Fortune phoenix- Hiatus

Chapter 13

Me and Gwindor spent the rest of the day together. Turns out we had every class together. At the end of the morning rotations, he was nice enough to buy me some lunch at the cafeteria. He had bought me some sushi and him some chow-mein. He was such the gentleman. We ate lunch inside the place and had a really fun time.

After lunch, we had about an hour before our next class started because we had a free period. Both of us decided to head back to his house and do our homework for the other classes. We had gotten our homework done just in time to make it to our next classes.

When all of our classes were over he walked me back to my house and we both said good night. When I went inside, can you guess what I was greeted with? I was greeted with a very pissed off Ethan.

“What were you doing hanging out with that elf?”

“Excuse me, but he has a name. It’s Gwindor. If you don’t know we just happen to be in the same classes, so that’s why. Sheesh, why are you so mad about it?”

“None of your business. I just don’t want you too hanging out any more than is needed.”

“Well, last time I checked it wasn’t your business who I do and don’t hang out with so screw off will you!”

I was so angry that I couldn’t even put it into words at that moment. I just left the conversation at that and left the room. I headed upstairs and slammed the door, telling everyone that I was not in the mood to talk. I threw myself on my bed and grabbed my pillow. I squeezed it tightly to my chest and stared at the ceiling wondering why Ethan was so mad about that. My phone started to vibrate in my back pocket. I pulled it out to see who had texted me.

◘ (Gwindor) Hey, how are you?

◙(Me) Crappy, just had a fight and not really feeling good.

◘(Gwindor) You want to talk about it over some dinner? We could go to this nice French restaurant on campass. I know the head chef there and if I recall correctly.

◙(Me) I would love that. When should we meet?

◘(Gwindor) It’s about 4:30 right now, so how about 5-ish?

◙(Me) Sounds good. This sounds more like a date then anything else. You taking me to a French restaurant.

◘(Gwindor) Sorry! Is that okay with you? I don’t want you to be weirded out or anything.

◙(Me) Don’t sweat it. Meet me outside my dorm at 5?

◘(Gwindor) Ok, see you there Victoria.

I was so happy! I was going on my first real date! I instantly sprang from my bed and into the closet. I knew exactly what to wear. I wore a short dress that matched the one I had worn to the ball. This one was white and was about knee length though. I paired it with some nude flats that were really comfy. I tried a natural look and avoided makeup and just went with some small clear crystal studs. When I looked in the mirror, I looked stunning. My final accessory was a small white clutch. My outfit was completely amazing, it didn’t scream date or party, but didn’t say too laid back. Just as I was about to leave I noticed my hair, it was a mess from my bed and me getting ready. In a panic I yelled for Ella and Akira for help. When they came, I explained the situation as fast as I could. Thankfully they understood. In the end, I had a simple half up, half down look with a couple of stray hairs that were curled in the front. It looked effortless and beautiful. I was so excited I could hardly breath. Then I remember Ethan and our argument.

I explained to the two of them the issue and they said they would take care of it. They just wanted me to have a good time tonight with Gwindor. I blushed really deep as they said that. I thanked them and headed down the stairs. When I opened the door, I see Gwindor in the distance. He was dressed in a nice shirt and pants. His shoes were the only casual thing in his outfit. Together we didn’t stick out a lot. He notices that I've opened the door and walks closer,
