IKOSI TESSERA (είκοσι τέσσερα)

Nixie's Point of View

We had so much fun. There was a cave located on top of the mountain we climbed. There were plenty of flowers, diamonds and stuffs inside. It was very beautiful. There was also a dinner table set up for all of us. After eating dinner Madison told us to dig on the ground she pointed to us.

She buried small treasure chests in there and inside it was our presents. Serafina got a red cocktail dress decorated with shimmering diamonds on it. Tyler got a black cloak and witch stuffs. Levi got a denim jacket and I got a navy blue dress with sequins on its hem. I love it. Madison told us that everyday we will have a trip and each one of us will be given the chance to be the host of the trip. Tomorrow Serafina will be the one preparing everything.

I went to my bed and drifted of to sleep. This is a tiring night.

The next day, I woke up early for our second trip. I was fully dressed and ready to go when Elisha stopped me on the doorsteps.

"Didn't Serafina told you to bring an extra clothes?" Elisha said and looked at me.

"I'm bringing the magic bag. No worries I can have everything I want." I told her.

"Okay. By the way, did you have fun yesterday?" she asked and I couldn't contain the smile.

"Yeah. It was tiring but worth it. I got to go Elisha, bye!" I exclaimed and shut the door behind me.

I walked towards the hallway leading to Serafina's room. We decided to meet up on the hallway near Serafina's room. I saw them there except for Serafina.

"Nixie!" Madison shouted at me and waved her hand signalling me to come over there quickly.

"Where is Serafina?" I asked her silently.

"She's at the meeting place. She wants me to accommodate you all to go there." she said.

"Where are we going?" I asked Tyler who is beside me

"Who knows." he said and left me behind to catch up with Madison.

"Beach." I heard Levi said.

"What did you say? You called me a bitch?" I asked him in an offended tone.

"You have bad ears. Can't you hear well?" he asked me.

I glared at him and he laughed at me.

"I said beach. B-E-A-C-H. Beach." he repeated which made me flush in embarassment.

I thought he called me a bitch.I just ignored him and walked fast. I was walking fast so that he could not catch up with me but he has long legs so it is not a problem for him. Darn. Why is that every time we go out I keep on being left behind with this guy?

"You can't escape me Nix." he said

I froze. He called me Nix. No one ever called me that after my best friend left for abroad. He was the only one who calls me Nix. I didn't have any news from him anymore until now. I felt my tears rolling down from my eyes to my cheeks.

Why am I crying?

"Hey. Hey. What did I do? Whatever it is. I'm sorry." Levi said and stood beside me

I can't help it but cry. I missed him so much. I used to call him Nix too. I don't even know his name but he told me to call him Nix and he will also call me Nix. My eyes were blurry and I can't see anything. After minutes I started sobbing. I was crying out loud.

Then all of a sudden I felt two warm arms draped around me. I lifted my head and saw Levi. He was hugging me. I buried my face on his chest and there I cried. I didn't know how long I cried but I felt comfortable on Levi's arms.
