Chapter 6 - Xander Anya
When I was young, the time I was a kindergartener. My family lived in a community that people 40 and older lived. So I was the only kid there for basically my entire childhood. Oh don't get me wrong, they were kids here. I mean we all went to the same school. It's just there were no kids in my large neighborhood. Expect, on one day, the day before I started kindergarten. A new family moved into a different part of the neighborhood. You see, my neighborhood was divided into two sections. One was the one I lived in. It was very beautiful, it looked like the same neighborhood in
"The Lady and the Tramp" movie. It was for people who were 40 years and older. So yeah it was nice. Then there was the other half of the neighborhood. Which were for the filthy rich people. And I mean the REALLY filthy rich people. People who have mansions everywhere, own half the world and do anything they want without the law breathing down their necks. And this family made the rest of those filthy rich people, look like beggars. I mean they were loaded! They had their mansion custom built! And! It was the largest mansion in the entire neighborhood! These people were serious filthy rich!
I was playing with my blue bouncy ball outside when I saw the many moving trucks drive through our part of the neighborhood. I counted 36 moving trucks.
"Wow...that's a lot."
When the all moving trucks were done driving through. I saw a black limousine with the windows down following them. I'm guessing the family moving in, is in that limousine. They weren't driving fast at all, so I was able to see the people inside. I saw in the middle seats, two adults a man and a woman who look like to be in the there mid 20s.
*sigh* "I guess they don't have kids either..."
But, to my surprise, sitting the back seat. I saw a boy who looked to be a teenager! Sure he was older than me, but an older kid is better then none...I think? I looked at the boy as the limousine drove by my house. All I saw was that he had beautiful blonde hair with curls in the bottom, with deep brown eyes. The boy inside the limousine looked at me. I smiled and waved at the boy, happy that there was another child here. He smiled and waved in response. When the limousine drove by my house, I walked onto the road and watched the limousine slowly drive around the corner. The boy turned around and looked through the back window.
He was smiling and waving at me, I smiled and waved back. I watched that jet black limousine as it continued down the street, and around the corner. In my heart, I was hoping that the boy would come to the park and play with me. Older or not. And hopefully, he's friendly and nice. I also hope that I'll meet him in school. I stared awhile at the end of the road, thinking about that boy. Then, I went inside to tell my parents, that I finally had a friend to play with!
The day was finally here! The first day of kindergarten! I was more excited to meet that new boy, then going to school. I kicked off my covers and got dressed. I wore a white short sleeve shirt with a navy blue dress over it, with white socks and black church shoes. When I finished changing, I combed my hair. When I finished, I put a crystal hair band in my hair, and I looked at myself in the mirror to see how I looked. I was quite pleased at what I saw, so, I went downstairs to get ready for school. I saw my mom washing the dishes, and my dad was drinking tea while reading the newspaper.
My mom had beautiful bright pink hair and a perfect pale complexion. And her purple eyes were very alluring. And my dad, he was also a piece of work as well. My dad had gorgeous red eyes and perfect shoulder length tan colored hair, he also had a pale complexion. He was one of those slim gorgeous men, that women go crazy for. Not to mention he's also very smart. I always wondered where I inherited my looks. I mean, I have brown hair with blue eyes, my parents have none of those traits. The only thing I DID inherit from my parents is their pale complexion.
"Hi, mommy! Hi, daddy!"
My mom stops washing the dishes and came over and gave me a big hug.
"Good morning darling. How did you sleep?" My mom asked.
"I slept good mommy, thank you," I replied.
"Hurry up and eat your breakfast." My dad ordered. "It's almost time for school, and we don't want you to miss the bus."
"Ok!" I quickly grabbed a piece of toast and ran out the door.
My parents sighed.
"Sometimes I worry about that girl." My mom shook her head.
The bus was about to leave, but, thankfully I got to the bus stop just in time. I climbed aboard the yellow school bus, and at the end of the bus, I saw a certain strawberry blonde flagging me down.
"Rebecca! Come sit with her, next to me!" The girl excitedly pleaded.
I walk to the end of the bus to where my old friend was sitting. She picked the very last seat on the bus.
"Hi, Des," I said, sitting down next to her. "I'm glad we're going to the same school together."
"Yeah me too! Now we get to see each other every day! This will be great!" Destinee cheered.
Destinee and I talked about this exciting new year, and, what new things were going to learn. But I was interrupted when a certain young boy with blonde hair with curls came onto the bus. But he wasn't alone. Behind him, there was the girl who looks to be around the blonde boy's age. She had lavishing lavender hair with purple eyes to match. And behind here was a younger boy who had straight blonde hair who look to be a little younger than me.
"Ooooh, that older blonde with the curly hair is cute," Destinee whispered. "But I think he's a bit too old for us."
"Yeah I agree." I sighed. I couldn't help but wish I was older, or if he was younger.
Those three kids sat down to the seat next to us. The lavender hair girl sat by the window, the younger blonde boy sat in the middle and the older blonde with curls sat at the end.
"I wonder if those three are related? Maybe sibling?" Destinee wondered.
"Maybe?" I said. I looked at the boy with golden curls. He looked at me, and I immediately turned away. I could feel my face turn warm. I turned around to take a quick peek at the golden hair boy with curls. When I turned around, I saw him looking at me, our eyes met. His deep brown eyes met my light blue eyes. He smiled and waved at me just like he did on the limousine. I waved, and kinda smiled. My face was so red I didn't know what I was doing.
When we arrived at school the older boy and girl left to go to another class while the younger one went to our class. He was soon announced by the teacher.
"Alright class, this is Leo Anya. He is from the Anya family, and as you know they are the rulers or royals of Nohr. So show Leo some respect please."
Everyone in the class nodded.
"Now Leo, why don't you tell everyone about yourself." Mrs. Higginson.
Leo nodded. "I am Leo Anya, and like Mrs. Higginson said. I am the second son of the prominent Anya family. My parents are Garon and Katerina Anya, and I have two older siblings, a brother and a sister. My older brother who is the eldest of siblings, a name is Xander Anya. Xander is 11 years old. And my older sister who is the second oldest, her name is Camilla Anya. She is 8 years old. Then there's me, I'm 4 but since I'm so smart." He said with pride. "I get to go to school early. And after me, we have the last of my siblings. My younger sister Elise Anya. Elise is newly born, she was born last month."
"Alright class, there you go. And thank you, Leo, for your wonderful background." Mrs. Higginson said. "Now please sit down, there's a free seat next to Abigail over there by the window."
Leo nodded politely and went to go take his seat.
"Hey," Destinee whispered. "That Leon kid is kinda cute don't you think."
"Forgot Des, that boy is out of your league." I whispered, "Waaaaaay out of your league."
Des and I laughed, then we turned our attention to Mrs. Higginson, and enjoyed our first day of Kindergarten.
(17 years later)
"Rebecca do you have those papers I asked for?" A woman with blonde hair tied in a ponytail asked.
"Yes, Catherine," I answered. "I have them right here."
I walked over to my blonde friend who was wearing a Hyatt White Lace Jumpsuit with white sandals. Her name was Catherine. Catherine S. Janeway. She was a tough, stern, strict woman who was a natural leader. Not to mention one of my best friends.
I handed her the papers that she requested.
"Good. This is just what I needed." Catherine nodded. "Thank you very much, Rebecca. Say are you free tonight? I'm taking Suzanne and the girls out to lunch tonight, and I was wondering if you could come?"
"No, I'm sorry Cat. I have to babysit tonight." I answered.
"Oh ok. Well, maybe next time." Catherine got her purse. "Make sure you lock up for tonight. Bye."
"Bye."
Then Catherine walked out the door and left for the rest of the day. I got my purse and my car keys and locked up for the night. I started my car, then drove off.
I pulled up into a beautiful driveway, it was inlined with black roses on both sides. I drove up to a beautiful, magnificent mansion. There were black rose bushes along the sides of this massive mansion, this place was practically a palace. I parked my car in the driveway and walked up to the coal colored door and rang the doorbell. A silver hair butler opened the door to let me in.
"Ah, Miss Rebecca. Late as usual. Where the devil have you been?" He scolded.
"Sorry I'm late Jakob, but I had finished a few things at work first," I answered. "May I come in now?"
Jakob grunted and let me in. They were maids and butlers running all over the place, fixing things, cleaning that, doing butlery and maiderly things. I was just a babysitter who babysitter the younger child here every day all week, every month and all year.
"REBECCA!" A young girl with long blond pigtails with purple highlights came running towards me. With no signs of stopping or slowing down.
"AH!" The younger girl tackled me to the ground.
"You're here! You're finally here! I waited all day for this! I planned out our weekend!" She smiled.
"You did. Now I'm really excited!" I smiled. "But, could you please get off me Elise...you're very heavy."
For the past 12 years, I was the babysitter for Elise Anya of the Anya family in Nohr. I met her on the playground where she ran away from her original caretakers. She apparently loved me so much that she wouldn't have anyone else babysit her except me. So her parents asked me to babysit their youngest child. And who was I to say no to the Anya family? So ever since then, I've been babysitting little Elise who was now sweet sixteen years old. Why she still needed a babysitter was beyond me. But, I still love hanging out with her, because she was like the little sister I never had.
"Oh m darling Rebecca, are you finally here. I was so worried something bad happened to you." A beautiful woman with long lavender hair and a great figure came up to me and Elise.
"Hello Camilla, sorry I was late." I laughed.
Camilla smiled. "Well glad you're here. Elise has the whole weekend planned out."
"My parents don't pay Rebecca for slacking off and just playing around. We pay her for babysitting Elise." A young boy with blond hair came walking in.
"Always the critic Leo. But I know you enjoy my visits." I smirked.
Leo grunted. "Just make sure you don't slack off too much. You still have a job to do."
"Yes, I know Leo. I know." I smiled. "So what do you have planned for us this weekend Elise? It's a long weekend and I got a few days off to."
Elise giggled. "Well. We're going to...CYRKENSIA IN NESTRA!" She cheered. "Father said because we all were so good, we could go wherever we wanted AND we could bring a friend! Hence you."
"Tell me, do you just want me to come because I have too, or just because you want me too?" I asked.
Elise just smiled. "Don't worry. It'll be fun."
"...That's not what I asked."
Elise just trotted away laughing. "Now go get ready Rebecca, we'll pick up at 5. Our plane leaves a 6 so you better hurry." Leo sighed and followed her.
"Rebecca, can you go tell Xander that we're almost ready to leave. He should be in the training room." Camilla asked, then she followed after Leo.
I let out a sigh, then I accepted my predicament and went to go find Xander. Now, Xander, he was a piece of work. He was the most popular person in middle school, high school, and college. He was the captain of the football team, student body president, and a valedictorian. So basically, if you had a guy who was the richest, cutest, smartest, strongest and times that by ten, THAT would be Xander. Not only was Xander smart and cute, but also a very strong person and fighter. Xander is known at the "Demon Prince" in Nohr. For he is like a prince and he fights like a demon. He is the strongest fighter in all of Nohr, there is no one in Nohr that can rival him. Well...except for his father, but his father is a retired fighter. But not only is Xander a strong fighter, but he's also an excellent gunman, and he's quite skilled with a sword as well. I always felt so safe when I was with Xander.
The sound of breaking rocks brought me back to reality. I found myself at the entrance of the training room. And there was Mr. Golden Boy training...by punching concrete blocks 2 feet thick. Sometimes I think that man is not human.
Xander was shirtless and wearing black fighting shorts with black weightlifting gloves. Xander was a blonde with broad shoulders, chiseled chest, toned abs, and bulging biceps. Every girl dream boy.
"Xander," I called.
Xander stopped training and smiled when he saw me. "Rebecca. It's a pleasure to see you again. Tell me, did Elise inform you about her trip she planned."
"Well, kind of. All I know is that we're going to Cyrkensia. Other than that, nothing." I shrugged.
Xander smirked. "Well then, I think I'll drive you to your house. After I take a quick shower."
Xander left. But I saw a slight blush on his face. I blushed as well. Yes. I had a slight SLIGHT crush on Xander. But he was out of my league. But, Xander will always be my first crush...even if it's a small one.
