It was finally the end of the school year and Violet was very happy. Her year as been hard for more reasons than one and she was glad she would finally be able to have a break. But first she had to make it out of the school safely. She was one to always be bothered by boys or bullied by girl, but thankfully she had someone who helped her through it. This person was her first and best friend Melody.
Violet began to walk towards the exit of the school when suddenly a few of the older boys came up to her. "Hey Violet, want to get together this summer."
Violet was still extremely shy and was not able to answer them. Instead she began to back away from them. The boys just laughed and said, "How cute. Come on we will not hurt you. We just want…" But they were interrupted.
"Can't you see you are bothering her?" Said Violet's friend Melody who came out suddenly to stop them.
"Hey we were talking to…" but before he could finish Melody interrupted again.
"Talking? No you were leaving and so are we." With that Melody took Violet's hand and they both walked away leaving the boys stunned and confused.
Violet looked back then gave a big sigh of relief. "Thanks Melody." She said smiling.
"You really need to learn to defend yourself." She said sounding a little annoyed.
Violet got sad, "sorry." She was very sincerely.
Melody looked back and saw her sad face and she just couldn't help but not be mad at her. "It's fine bestie." She said giving Violet a hug much to Violet's surprise. "Tell you what let's forget what happened and get something to eat."
Violet instantly brightened up and smiling. "Ok. You paying?" She said in a joking manner.
Melody looked at her and gave her a huge playful grin. "You wish. Pay for yours yourself."
Violet laughed, "OK." With that they walked away to the nearest fast food place.
Meanwhile over in Benham City Ceylan just got some exciting news.
"Ceylan were are going on vacation this summer." His mother said super excited about the trip.
"Really?! Awesome! Where are we going?" Ceylan said just as excited.
"That is a surprise Ceylan." Said his dad who was packing up.
"When do we leave?" Ceylan asked.
"Next week. So you better start packing." He mother said.
Ceylan didn't answer but he did run to his room to pack as well as to call Guren and the others to tell them the news. When he was about to call them he realized something. If he goes on vacation he would not be able to help the knights when they were summoned. Due to the thought he also called Gen to see if he could take over for him if it was needed.
After Ceylan told them the news, and Gen agreed to be his replacement, Ceylan began to pack. He was so looking forward to this trip that he was actually going wild in his imagination on where they were going.
Back over to Violet and Melody. They just ordered their food and were sitting down eating. Melody was finished first and when she did she took out one of Violet's pictures that was in Violet's bag.
"Hey!" Violet said at the sudden action.
"Sorry." She looked at the picture and said, "I just can't believe you like this type of guy." She was looking at the picture Violet and Ceylan took at the amusement park.
Violet was embarrassed about the photo but she liked it so she carried it with her. "I never that I would either. It just happened."
Melody took a good long look at the goofy-ball with doodles on his face. "Still… why this guy? He looks like a complete goof."
"He was nice." Violet said not really knowing how to explain how she came to like him.
"In my opinion nice guys are the ones you really need to watch out for. You never know if they are nice because they are nice or because they want something." Melody said obviously not liking the guy in the picture.
"I think he is nice because he is. He even helped me when I was in trouble." Violet said in protest.
"He still could want something." Melody said.
"If he did he would have asked or tried to get it when I left." Violet argued. "After all we didn't know if we'll ever meet again." After Violet said that she got really sad by the thought.
Melody saw her change in expression and smiled. "Ok fine. I will trust your judgment. Not like you have been wrong before."
Violet lighten up and gave a small smile. "Thanks. Melody."
Melody looked back at the picture and asked, "But do you think you will ever see him again?"
Violet went into deep thought. "I don't know…" she paused to think. "…but I hope so."
"If you do remember to introduce us." Melody said really wanting to meet this nice guy Violet had feelings for.
"Sure. As long as you don't scare him off." Violet said giggling.
Melody was stunned. "I won't. I am not that mean. Am I?"
"No but you can be a little intimidating." Violet answered.
Melody thought about her being intimidating. "You know what. I am ok with that."
After that they laughed and Violet finished her meal. Once all was done they all went home with Melody escorting Violet like she always did. Melody always worried about Violet so she would often walk her home. Especially when it was night time. Once Violet was home Melody said her good-byes and also went home. The minute Melody was gone Violet went inside and looked at her picture again. She laughed at the memory but she also got sad when she thought about how long it would be before they could meet again.
"I hope I can see you again soon." She said to herself.
Over to Ceylan he was in bed when he suddenly sneeze. "Oh great. I hope I am not getting a cold." He said but after that he went right back to bed not really wanting to wait a week for the trip. He even smiled at the things him and his family might do once they got there. "Can't wait." He said before finally going to sleep.
