"Luna, are you day dreaming again?"
"You've been like that since Sunday, are you sure you're alright?"
Luna was just getting out of school with her friends, but they kept bothering her about spacing out all the time. They hit the mark of course. It had started after Sunday; the young man who saved her was still ruling her mind not of love, but of curiosity. But Emily and Lucy knew no boundaries when it came to an interesting topic, Luna knew she could barely get them off if they knew something was wrong and sounded interesting.
"Did you meet someone special?" – Emily asked while playing with her brown hair, Luna just ignored her.
"Lu, you never told us you left and we got worried, so don't go blaming it on us if we are curious about what happened to you."
"Nothing happened, if something had I would have told you" – she mentally agreed with herself that Sunday night had been too crazy for her, especially when she didn't even say thank you to the blonde.
"Oh Lu, it's your dear baby brother" – Lucy said with a smirk. She had a crush on Ben ever since he tutored her. Unfortunately, he was never interested in dating, he had had a girlfriend before but it ended so badly that he just wanted to stay single for a while. Luna turned her head in his direction, seeing his mess of brown hair that almost covered his classes.
"Hey Luni, let's go home" – Luna gave him her best glare, she hated when he called her Luni – "Oh the scary eyes, give me a moment while I go tremble in a corner"- if Luna liked making sarcastic comments her brother rivaled it by loving it and making it worse if he could. He could match her attitude easily.
"Don't forget to change your diapers, little bro" - Luna turned to her friends and smiling said good-bye as she went out of the classroom. Ben walked next to her and even though he was a year younger he was taller than Luna, not only that, but he was the mature type who kept to themselves. He was well-known in school not for his skills, but for the fight he finished last year when a boy in Luna's class tried to get her to date him, he had somehow heard about it and rushed to her class only to knock the boy out with a punch in the face.
"Why so quiet? You're usually babbling about your day. Oh, wait let me correct that, complaining is the better word for it." – Luna said smiling at him she liked teasing him.
"I'm just tired; did you get your grades?
"Yep, 3 A's and 2 B's and I'm not even trying this year."
"Oh, you have to try? – Ben smirk
"No, I don't. I just get bored and love to fail and repeat a grade just to be with you, that's how much I love you." – Luna made her tone of voice so sweet it made Ben stop and give her a disgusted look.
"I'll happily change schools thank you very much"
"Omg! Are you breaking up with me!? – Luna acted shock stopping in front of Ben as he rolled his eyes smiling.
"I could, but then I remember I live next to your room so it would be pointless" Luna laughed.
Luna continued to her house laughing with her brother on the way. They had a good relationship as siblings mostly because they had stayed alone most of the time since their parents work overseas and they would stay with their aunt. Now they were staying for the week, a rare occasion. Luna and Ben entered their house as their aunt yelled to get ready for dinner. Luna ran to her room leaving her bags and books on her bed, she was going to go downstairs when she saw a silver light in her window. She almost swore it look like a star as she got closer to her window, but the light then moved so fast Luna lost track of it. Curious she went downstairs saying to her aunt she was going to pick something up in the mailbox. Luna searched everywhere, but the silver light was nowhere to be seen and it was already night inside she sat in the table next to her brother.
"So what was so important that you went outside?" – Ben whisper as he took a piece of meat.
"None of your damn business"
"Are you meeting with someone behind my back, sis?" – Luna glanced at Ben, his tone was relaxed, but the meaning behind it meant he knew something and it worried her. Ben was a strategist and he liked playing games with Luna.
"Who would I meet? Besides, are you referring to something in specific?"
"No. just asking nothing more" – he said smiling.
"Benedict, you should show more respect to your older sister" – Ben and Luna glanced at their aunt, she was in her 40's with blonde hair tied in a donut and dashing cloths. She worked as a designer and was old-fashioned. "Luna, is there someone you're interested in?" She asked.
" 's just Ben trying to play games. I am not looking for romance at the moment, I want to focus on my studies" – Luna replied smiling as Ben rolled his eyes.
"Your parents should arrive tomorrow so I want both of you here early. Understand?
"Aunt, I have after school activities and I need to attend, its important" – Ben said finishing his glass of soda'.
"Very well."
"I'm done. I'll go take a shower" – Luna said as she stormed upstairs to the bathroom, she had to or Ben would have wrestle her for it. When she finished she went to her room with her short pants and sleeveless shirt ready for bed. She had no homework and she was glad about it since she wanted to have a good night sleep. She looked up to the night sky noticing how the bright stars were making the sky look so beautiful. Slowly she got on her bed and rested on her soft covers almost drifting to sleep, when she heard a flute playing in the background. Luna remained with her eyes closed thinking it was the neighbors, then she recognized the melody and smiled unconsciously. It was Silver bells, she opened her eyes curious at why someone would be playing a Christmas song so early, but amused it was her favorite song. She fell asleep feeling happy noticing she had been upset or preoccupied in her mind and the melody soothed her as she continue to sing the song in her mind.
