~ Luxus's POV ~
I'm walking my way through the Dining Hall with my brother, Lass. Why does he need to ask me about 'him'? I don't care about him at all. And then, this girl again, I first saw her in the lobby when I was waiting for Lass to go practice for while. She has lavender hair and sapphire eyes. I guess she's that newcomer from the continent of Île de Frost or Frostland.
"Okay, I'm sorry; I brought out that topic again." said Lass. That's one of the things I like about him, he's not that stubborn when he want to ask something. I didn't reply. I'm not that mad, I'm just irritated when he brought out that man in the trail of our conversation.
"I better get our food then…" said Lass. I wonder why this girl is here, I heard some gossips around, that the continent of Frostland has been badly attacked. I guess she's here to prepare herself in battle…
Lass finally arrived with our meals. "Come on, let's eat." I said.
"By the way brother, are you scheduled to go on a mission tomorrow?"
"Yeah, I guess it's in Xenia border." I replied. I need to hunt the bastard Octus and Lenasien.
"Can I come? I wanna try some of my new weapons."
"Sure…" I replied after that we talked more about classes and other scheduled missions where we can partner up together. In the corner of eye, I saw Mari, approached this girl with lavender hair and sapphire eyes. I didn't expect her to talk and accompany the newcomer.
"Hey brother, let's go spar for a little bit." Said Lass, I don't mind it. I like using my eyetooth.
"Come on." I said and stood up. We walked our way outside. Then something, rather someone bumped to me, and there she is again, the girl I've been seeing so many times today. And right now, she looked hurt and she covers her right eye. I think her right eye is now bleeding. What the hell?! Where the hell did she get that? Was the force of that bump caused her to be like that? Panicked got into me, and I don't even know why I'm worried for her right now.
"It's bleeding! Lass, get the nurse!" I said. I guess he doesn't need my order, he directly run to the infirmary to find the nurse while I carry this girl in my arms and go to the infirmary.
"She's not here." Lass commented.
"Find her." I said then lay this girl in the bed. Stupid nurse! Not in the infirmary when you need her.
Finally, Lass got the nurse (The nurse at that moment is having a dinner somewhere.).
"What's the problem?" The nurse asked. "Her right eye is bleeding." I pointed out the obvious. Seriously, does she need to ask it when she can fucking see it? Ugh, this nurse is seriously getting in my nerves.
She then goes to check on the patient. "So what happened when she got this?" the nurse asked. "I don't know, she just bumped into me, she covers her right eye, it suddenly bleeds and then she loses consciousness." I explained. "So, do you know what's the cause of this? I mean, a bump like that wouldn't cause a bleed that bad." asked Lass. "I'm not sure yet. Is she the new girl from Frostland?" She asked while cleaning and patching up the bleed.
"I guess so… why?" I asked. Lass looked sad, what's with him. "Hey Lass, you okay?" "Yeah, it's just… I think she's the only survivor in the Frost Family."
"What?! You mean, the arachne attack actually wiped them out?" I asked. I didn't know, that spider successfully take over that continent.
"I'm not sure, but it seems like it."
"Poor girl, I think she has that curse." Nurse said.
"What curse?" I asked.
"I don't know the full detail about it, but they say that the Frost Family has been cursed." she said. She's now done patching up her eye. "Oh, sorry to bother you, but I'm scheduled tonight in the other building to take care of the other patients from the missions. But for the mean time, could you please look out for her tonight?" asked the nurse. Well, I have a mission tomorrow, Lass and I planned to have a spar tonight, but… *sigh* Oh well…
"Yeah, sure…" I said. Lass just looked puzzled. And then the nurse exited the room.
"But you have mission tomorrow right? That's weird, you always think about mission than other people." said Lass.
"Harsh, you think about me that way. Anyway, I'll reschedule it tomorrow. More importantly, you have exam tomorrow." I said. Acting hurt. He looks comically shocked. Ah, he forgot about it. (By the way, Edel is a transferee in the middle of semester. That's why the exams are already up.)
"I-I forgot about it! Arme will kill me if I got late in the exam." He said. He looked doomed when he thought of his girlfriend's rage.
"You should go now, you might get late for the exam tomorrow." I said and chuckled on the look of his face. He obeyed and exited the room.
*Sigh* funny I didn't feel irritated at all. I mean, I should be mad, because of this girl, my mission tomorrow will be postponed, but no, I feel relaxed and relieved in which, I don't know why. I mean, I shouldn't be feeling guilty earlier cause' I didn't even do anything to her.
I think I'll sleep in the chair beside her bed, no choice. The bandage supplies are all placed in the sofa, they just arrived today, and the other bed has also have the other medicine supplies placed on it, they have a hard time placing it on the cabinet cause' of going in the second building to treat the other injured students from their mission.
=== Morning in the Infirmary ===
~ Edel's POV ~
Ugh, what happened last night? I asked myself, I touched my right eye with my right hand, it was fully bandage. Now that I'm finally awaked, I am in the infirmary. Now that I think about it, my left hand is being hold by this man. The man I saw in the lobby and Dining Hall yesterday. For sure, he's sleeping right now. I think about trying to get my hand out of his grip, but thinking about it, he would wake up for sure, and I don't want to wake him up. I practically know that I caused trouble to him last night. Ugh, what should I do? I don't plan on waking him up yet, I want to go in the comfort room to detached the bandage and wash my face.
Oh, he's beginning to move, I think he'll wake up now. And I was right; he woke up, yawned and then looked at me blink a few times.
"Good morning." I greeted to start the conversation, I think he's not in his full self yet.
"G'morning…" he replied then yawned and planned to go back to sleep. Then he suddenly bolted up and asked "Uh, hey, are you okay now? how's the bleeding, did it stop already?"
"I guess so, this usually happen, and also thank you for bringing me here." I said. And then in the corner of my eye I saw the clock beside him. And it's already 7am. Crap! I'm late on my first day!
"Sorry um, sir-" I said then he suddenly cut me off. "Luxus, Luxus Wilde."
"Sorry uh, Luxus, but could you please let go of my hand?" I asked, well, for a while he didn't let go of it.
"O-oh…" he replied and then let go of my hand. I got off of the bed and goes to the comfort room to fix the bandage and wash my face. Luxus just sat there and still looked sleepy. After a little while, I finally got out of the comfort room then walk to the exit when "Where are you going, um…" he asked.
"Edel, Edel Frost. I'm going to class, I'm already late for my first subject." I said.
"What class?" he asked.
"A-X2"
"Don't rush yourself out; the professor of that class is always late or sometimes not there."
"Are you from that class?"
"Well, yeah… Anyway, let's go to the Dining Hall and eat breakfast." He suggests. Oh well, might as well go with him, since I don't really know anything about my class.
=== Dining Hall ===
~ Normal POV ~
At the time of 7am, many people are gathered around in dining hall to eat breakfast. The two made their way inside. For a moment, almost everyone looked at them and started whispering.
"Hey, isn't that Luxus?" "Yeah, and who's that girl?" and other random questions about them. Luxus didn't mind it at all. Edel in the other hand looked nervous.
They walked till they got to a table for two. "I'll get our food." Luxus said. Edel just nodded. After a minute or two he got back with their food.
"Um, I don't know what do you like but, I've brought you a spaghetti, sandwich and strawberry juice, just like mine." said Luxus.
"It's alright, thank you…" said Edel and smiled. Luxus just nodded smiled and then they began eating.
"Brother!" Lass called out. Luxus turned to him.
"What're you doing here? I thought, you'll be with Arme?" Luxus asked. Edel just looked at them and Lass is also looking at Edel at some point.
"I am with her earlier and then I said I'll get us something to eat. So, what's with you today? I mean, you didn't eat with other girls before, yet…" asked Lass, Edel heard this, she just doesn't mind, she thought it's because they're just both hungry that's why he let her join him in breakfast.
"What's with that? I can't eat with her?" said Luxus and Lass just shrugged.
"Um, hi, I'm Lass Isolet." He introduced himself to Edel.
"Edel, Edel Frost… nice to meet you." She said, and finished her sandwich and strawberry juice.
"Let's go to class, Edel." said Luxus, and Edel just nodded.
