Unexpected Changes

...****************...

...[ Someone entered the class with a black hat and the school hoodie, hanging his bag on his right shoulder. It was a very familiar image to Luna. Suddenly, her jaw dropped seeing the person in front there. ]...

...****************...

...Yeah, it was none other than Joe's brother Jake. Luna was so stunned. She couldn't think of anything but what would happen next....

...The teacher asked Jake to introduce himself to his new classmates....

..." Hello, am Jake Carter, younger brother of Joe. We wish we get friendly soon. "...

...Luna was hearing him speak for the first time. His voice was kinda deep for his age it made her get chills. And yeah, it was love at first sight for both of them....

...After introducing himself Jake's eyes got on Luna. Seeing her reaction his smile turned to a smirk. Luna suddenly realised she was staring at him way more than sensibility. She suddenly turned away and started looking outside the window....

..." Oh, nice! it's a type of a surprise that you both brothers are of the same age. " the teacher asked Jake with curiosity. " We both are twins. It's just he was born 5 minutes earlier than me." Jake replied with a warm smile. " Hmmm, nice. Then, you can sit next to your brother. " Jake smiled at the teacher a searched for his place. Jake's smile turned to a smirk again. Because unfortunately, the seat was behind Luna 😆. But, Luna was busy daydreaming seeing out of the window....

...The class finished and the teacher went out of the classroom. Grace suddenly turned towards Luna and started whispering. " Luna. Luna, hey what are you dreaming about? " Luna got conscious and started peeping in search of Jake. " What are you looking for? " Grace asked with confusion. " Where did that guy go? He was here right? " Luna whispered. " Ayyyyy... idiot. He is sitting behind you. I was right, you were dreaming. " Grace mumbled with angriness. Luna got alarmed. She slowly tried to turn back and see him. But she couldn't do so. Finally, she turned and saw him. Jake's heart skipped a beat when Luna suddenly turned towards him....

...Jake waved his palm and passed a warm smile. Luna turned back and asked Grace why she called her. Grace whispered " I was thinking about letting these 2 brothers in our group. Let's join them. " Luna sat straight and started thinking of what she should tell. Grace patted her shoulders and asked her again. Luna said her to do what feels right for her....

...Grace cleared her throat and called Joe. " A... Hi Joe, am Grace. " Joe said it was his pleasure to meet her. Grace continued " Are you part of any friend group if not would you like to join our group. " Joe asked how many members are there in her group and she said all the members' names including Luna. As Joe was very friendly and comfortable around Luna he accepted the request. Grace hinted Joe asking Jake. Jake was in his world listening to music and completing his assignments. Joe called Jake. Jake removed his headphones and asked what. Joe showed Grace and introduced her ' Jake, Grace has invited us to join their friend's group where the members are Jonas, Grace, Leo and Luna. As we are not into any type of friend groups, I thought of joining them.' Jake didn't even think for a second and accepted the proposal. Luna's face was bloomed with happiness but also with embarrassment. Luna turned towards the front and slept on her hands. It was free time and all were doing their particular acts. Luna started thinking about why she is so scared or embarrassed or so overwhelmed when Jake is around her....

...Time passed, it was lunch break. Grace awakened Luna and called her to have food. Luna said ok in a sleepy tone. All students left for the canteen to have food. After some time of stretching and yawning, Luna also moved towards the canteen. Jake, Joe, Grace, Leo and Jonas were already sitting and having their food. All 5 were laughing, making jokes and enjoying the moment. Somewhat, seeing this Luna became happy. Luna joined them. After having their food Luna was still not enough with her food. She thought of getting some additional food, while others went to let out their plates. Surprisingly, Joe, Jonas, Leo and Grace started talking near the dustbin too. Jake was feeling uneasy after eating peameal soup. He went near the centre of the Cool drink and had a soda. It made him feel better. After some irrelevant deep thinking, Jake turned back....

...He saw something which unknowingly made his heartache deep down by grief....

...Luna was being tormented by a gang of bullies. They were thrashing food at her and enjoying that. But Luna, she wasn't even flinching. Luna tightened her fist. But ended up doing nothing. Their bullying was going extremely far in the sight of Jake. He ran towards Luna and knelt next to her. He safeguarded her head with one hand and stopped the bullies with another. Luna was so stunned by what Jake did. She looked at him, but he was already looking at her with a worried expression. He cupped her cheeks " Are you alright? ". Luna nodded as yes. At that moment Joe, Jonas, Grace and Leo came there in search of these two. They all moved towards Jake. Luna and Jake stood up. Grace hugged Luna and started cleaning her clothes. Jake and Leo were so angry, but these bullies were rippling patrol on the flame. The gang of bullies started laughing and poking fun at Luna again. Jake's tolerance level busted. He shouted aloud which made everyone flinch. " You, you and you, just shut your bloody sass. Let us live peacefully. How had we even harmed you? Get away from my sight before I let my hand swat your cheeks. " Everyone's jaw dropped. Jake, Joe, Jonas, Leo and Grace came out with Luna to let her have a gentle breeze. Leo was breathing heavily. Grace was worried about him and laid her hands on his shoulders. " What happened? Why are you being like this? " hearing this Leo started uttering fastly which was harder to understand. Everyone widened their eyes and looked at Leo with a confused expression. Leo stuttered " I-hhh won't know what a..am doing wh..when am angry. " seeing his response everyone started laughing. Gradually looking at their happiness Leo also laughed. But Jake....., Something was bothering him. Joe laid his hands on his shoulders and gestured mentioning what happened. Jake stood in front of Luna. Luna couldn't see in his eyes, she looked down. Jake asked, " What happened there before I came. Why were they acting like that with you. What did you even do that they did this. "...
