CHAPTER 1: Two New students

Today is the first day of Ember in Grade 12 in the School of Flower Bloom academy. She got sick yesterday, which is the first day of school. It's just a slight fever but her mother said to take a rest. Thank God! that her classmate last year is still her classmate in this school year.

"EMBER!!!" Luna shouts and she hugs Ember. Luna is Ember’s friend in grade 11. Luna was so excited to meet her friend, Luna and Ember didn’t meet this summer vacation. "I miss you so much... how's your vacation at your grandparent's house?" Luna asked she is someone who wants to talk about what is happening around her.

Unlike Luna who loves to talk. Ember was the complete opposite of her. "Me too Luna I miss you... my vacation is great but there is no signal in the area so I can't communicate with you" Ember said while looking at Luna with a puppy eye.

"I miss you... I miss that look... like you're a dog that knows her mistake" Luna said while smiling and pinching Ember’s cheeks. "It hurts you know!" I said as I stopped her from pinching me.

...

A few minutes later the teacher came and the students sat down on their seats. Ember and Luna are far from each other, but luckily Ember is beside the window which she likes.

Ember sits down, she is beside the window at the back. Beside her is a mysterious guy who wears a black jacket with a hood on it, Ember couldn't see his face.

She looked below her desk and saw a Lavender rose. The tears just flowed down in her eyes without knowing... she immediately wiped it.

The teacher went inside the room, "class we have two transfer students". "I wish it wasn't some creepy guy like yesterday... " some students said.

"Two of you come in..." the teacher said. As the two guys set foot in the door the student of the class was mesmerized because of the beauty they saw.

As Ember saw the one transfer student, her spine shivered, just like she saw a ghost. The tears in her eyes flow and she can not stop it.

The guy beside her gave a handkerchief “I think you need this…” the mysterious guy said... She accepts the handkerchief and wipes her tears “Thank you!” She forced a smile and she just bowed her head.

"Introduce yourself," the teacher in front said. The teacher in front was the homeroom teacher named Eve, she was also their science teacher.

"Hi guys I am Bleu Lafrancois 16 years old," the guy on the right said, he has bright yellow hair and blue eyes.

"And I am Alexis Cain Scott, also 16 years old and you can call me Cain..." the guy on the left said, he was smiling and looked playful and friendly.

Cain's hair is also yellow but not as bright as the color of the hair of Bleu, his eyes were color brown.

"Mister Lafrancois you can take the sit in front of miss... miss Lawson are you alright?" The teacher asked Ember. Eve noticed Ember, she was pale and shivering.

"Ma'am she has a stomach ache and can't tell you immediately because of the introduction of the student," the mysterious guys said to the teacher.

"Then please accompany Miss Lawson to the infirmary," the teacher said. "Okay ma'am" the mysterious guy replied to the teacher. the guy pat Ember.

Ember was shocked and looked at the mysterious guy, "looked down and held your tummy like it really hurts" the mysterious guy whispered toward her ear as if he was helping Ember to stand up.

"Lafrancois in front of Miss Lawson and Scott sit next beside the guy who helped Miss Lawson..." the teacher said while Ember and the mysterious guy are leaving the classroom.

In the hallway, both of them are still acting, rather Ember is still acting, that her stomach hurts. Her skills in acting are being used.

When she was an Elementary student, and they have activity and its roleplay my classmate always picks me to act the leading role. There is that time when they have a theater play she played Juliet. She clearly remembers the happy days of her Elementary years.

"Thank you for helping me!" Ember said to the mysterious guy, she smiled at him. "It's nothing really..." he said as they walk towards the infirmary room….

When they were in the infirmary room the mysterious guy planned to leave when Ember asked him "What is your name".

"Just call me Lan..." he said and left the room… ‘What a strange name he has’ Ember thought.

...

The nurse came in... She was not in the room when Ember and Lan came in, maybe she was busy doing something. "Are you hurt?" the nurse asked me while holding her cup of coffee.

"Yes ma'am" I replied with a face that looks hurt. "Where?" she asked again.

Ember would like to tell her that her heart hurts, but she thought ‘what if she calls my parents... I don't have any heart disease, it is just... I think Heart is broken…’ Ember remembers that she is just acting " My tummy hurts!" Ember said.

"Maybe nature is calling you?" the nurse said without looking at me. Ember was a bit embarrassed "No ma'am! it suddenly hurt and I-I don't feel that way!" she explained.

"You can lay down in the bed until you feel better..." the nurse said while sipping her drink and looking at some documents.

...

Few hours had passed, it's break time... Ember fell asleep… she heard the voice of Luna talking to someone. Ember looked at where she was, she saw her with Bleu and his friend... Luna saw Ember looking at her, she immediately went beside her.

"Ember are you alright, how's your stomach? " Luna asked, sounding like she is so worried.

"Luna I am fine... I just need some rest" Ember said to her with guilt. Ember could not tell her the truth, Luna is a bit nosy, if she is interested.

"Hi, Ember how are you?" Bleu said he sounded worried. "I-I am fine" Ember responded with a smile "It's been a while... I guess one year has passed?" She added.

"Yeah, one-year" Bleu said as if he was a little awkward. "ab-about my brother..." Ember interrupted him "your brother and I are good friends in the past".

Ember feels uncomfortable whenever Bleu is there. She knows it is not his fault and everything, it’s just that... she doesn't want to hear his brother's name and explanation about that time. Whenever Ember sees Bleu's face, she remembers his brother, and it somewhat irritates her and she feels so sad...
