Vaati P.O.V.
We were now at school, in our French lesson. Learning the language is pretty easy. I seriously don't know how people find it difficult. Or I'm probably just good at learning different languages. An hour passed when the lesson finished and me and Kaia were in the lunch hall. It was 20 seconds after when Kaia's three other friends joined us at the table. "Hi Kaia~ Hi Vatni~", Bebe greeted as she sat down. Galaxy and Luella joined soon after. "Hi guys", I hear Kaia reply. I then saw Galaxy take out a manga book from her bag: Legend of Zelda: Minish cap. So Kaia isn't the only one who read those books. And what's best is that I'm in that book. Ha! I'm the best.
Kaia P.O.V.
I watch as Galaxy reads the book. Vaati must feel so proud now that someone's reading a book that has him in it. I see Luella look over Galaxy's shoulder as she also reads the book as well. She then put on a confused look. She looks from the book to Vaati then repeats the process a couple of times. Oh no! Luella's seeing the similar appearance between the picture of Vaati and the real thing. This isn't good! She's going to find out the truth about how Vaati actually exists! "Vaati, I think we should go", I whisper to him. He looks puzzled. "Why? We've got 8 minutes left until the bell goes."
"I know, but Luella's catching on to who you really are."
Vaati looked from confused to shocked. "Drat!" he hissed. He then stood up and grabbed by hand. "Let's go quickly", he says as he drags me out of the hall. "Hey! Where are you two going?" Bebe asked as she ran up to us. "It's none of your business!" I hear Vaati rudely reply. He could of said that more nicely, because Bebe ran off crying.
"You could have said that a bit nicely", I say. "She was being nosy", was his only reply as he drags me to next lesson.
Luella P.O.V. (Only time this is happening, I promise)
I see Bebe come back crying to us. "Bebe, what happened?" Galaxy asked. "V-Vatni w-was being m-mean!" Bebe said between sobs. So he's snappy is he? Hm, he looks like Vaati and he acts like Vaati too. Hm, could he actually be...? I shake my head. I have to find more information first. But I need some information about him. I then look at Galaxy's book. "Hey Galaxy, can I borrow that book for the day?" I ask. She nods. "Sure." She hands me the book and I walk off with it. Now let's see...
The bell had eventually rung for next lesson which was History. I was in the same history as Kaia so I would be able to keep an eye on Vatni as well because weirdly enough Vatni's in all of Kaia's classes. I watched Vatni the entire time. I see him flirt with a nearby girl. I sweat drop. Vaati does the same thing in the four swords game. Hm, he acts a lot like Vaati.
When it was lunch, I kept an eye on Vatni from a distance. He was eagerly angered, he flirted with pretty girls and he laughs like a complete maniac. Oh yeah, and he looks like Vaati too. Hm, I have to search up more about this. There's just no way that Vaati exists. But all the things he does, it's just like...
Meanwhile back at Kaia and Vaati's table. (Normal P.O.V.)
"Kaia, Luella's been looking at me all day", Vaati says. Kaia just drinks her juice. "Just ignore her", Kaia answered and drunk more of her juice. Vaati thought for a moment. "I wonder if she has a crush on me", he says while smiling.
Kaia on the other hand just spits out her drink.
It was now end of day and Kaia and Vaati were walking home. "Hey guys, wait up!" Luella shouted as she ran up to them. "Kaia, you mind if I come to your house today?" she asked once she finally caught up to them. 'This is rare', Kaia thought. "Yeah, sure", Kaia answers.
Vaati P.O.V.
Oh this is just great. Luella's coming to Kaia's house which means I have to keep the name 'Vatni' for the entire day. Wait a minute, Mum doesn't know about the fact that we're keeping my identity a secret! This isn't good! Not good one bit! Drat, drat, drat! We continue walking along the path and I speak quietly enough that Luella wouldn't be able to hear but loud enough for Kaia. "Kaia, what are we going to do about Mum?" I ask. She looks confused for a minute but then understands the situation as she realises that Mum doesn't know about my hidden identity at school. "I'll think of something", was her answer. That sure is helpful isn't it, but I don't have anything up my sleeve either.
The entire walk was silent but I didn't exactly care. It's nice to have a quiet walk once in a while. Usually me and Kaia would talk on our way home but seeing as Luella is here, it's kind of hard to talk about something that might give me away. And I don't want to give myself away to someone who hates my guts for no clear reason. We eventually get home and when we got up the stairs Kaia turns to me. "Vatni, keep Luella occupied for me for a minute will you? I need to speak to Mum", Kaia says as she walks into the kitchen. I clap my hands together. "Okay then, Luella come with me then", I say as we walk into the bedroom. She doesn't say anything but just glares. I hate the way she looks at me. "What are you glaring for!?" I angrily ask. She looks shocked for a minute then she goes back to her usual look and looks away. "It's nothing. It's just that you act like that stupid sorcerer from the Zelda series. I feel my eye twitch. "Why do you hate him so much?" I ask, remembering that I have to play the role of Vatni instead of Vaati. "Because he looks so gay", she answers. I'm not gay! Just because I like purple doesn't mean I'm gay! I was going to snap but Kaia came in with perfect timing.
Kaia P.O.V.
I see Vaati glare at Luella and Luella's just looking away from him. I sigh. "What's happened?" I asked. "It's nothing", I hear Vaati bitterly reply. Knowing Luella, she's probably offended him without knowing it. I walk over to the bed Vaati's on and sit down on it. "Vaati, I've told Mum about how we're keeping your true identity secret from Luella", I whisper to him. "Good", he replies. I then clap my hands together. "Okay then. So, Luella, why did you decide to come here?" I ask. Luella looks over at me. "It's just been a long time since I came over to yours and, I want to know about Vatni a bit more as well", Luella answers as she looks over at Vatni. So in other words, your just here to know about Vaati? *Sigh* Of course, I'm not important to you, it's just people like Vaati you only come to my house for. That's very understandable.
I feel Vaati put a comforting hand on my shoulder. I look up at him and smile. He smiles a little as well. I then look back to Luella. "Okay, just ask away then", Vaati says. "Well, how did you two meet?" was Luella's first question. "We met at an alley. I was abandoned by my parents so I was homeless, then I met Kaia and she took me in", Vaati lied. Well that's not exactly a lie. I mean, we did meet in an alley and Vaati doesn't have any parents. Luella didn't look like she bought it, but she let it go and asked another question. "Did you have an old master when you were younger?" That doesn't make sense. Vaati lied saying he was homeless, so why did Luella asked if he had a master. Oh no. She's asking questions about Vaati's past life. Luella knows a bit Vaati's life, but not as well as me. But she's asking questions that will not go down well with Vaati. I saw him gulp before answering no. Luella asked more questions about 'Vaati's' life which made Vaati really uncomfortable but not as uncomfortable as this one. "Vatni, have you ever stolen a hat before?" Vaati looked down. This isn't good. But before Vaati could say anything, Mum shouted from the kitchen,"Tea is ready~!" Vaati literally dashes out the room and I see Luella put on a thinking look. She's thinking about if he's actually Vaati or not. Well, I don't think any of Vaati's answers gave him away, but Luella is good when it comes to telling lies apart from truth. I just hope she doesn't find out.
Vaati P.O.V.
Drat. Those questions were very uncomfortable. Thank the goddesses that tea's ready (not tea as in a cup of tea, but rather dinner). We all sit down at the kitchen table and have our dinner. It was eerily silent. Luella looked lost in thought and Kaia was looking at Luella with a worried expression. Is Luella catching onto me? I hope not. Mum then gave us our drinks. "Here you go Luella. Here you are Kaia and here's one for you Vaat-" Me and Kaia cut her off by doing a fake cough. She then realised her mistake. "Vatni", she said correctly and gave me my drink. "Thanks", I say before bringing the drink to my lips. I saw Luella give a suspicious look but she never said anything of it.
Normal P.O.V.
It was now 15:32 and Luella left to go. As soon as Kaia closed the door, Luella said to herself, "Hm, very suspicious indeed. He looked like he was lying when he was answering me. He glared at me whenever I said something rude about Vaati and how he cut off Kaia's mum when she was going to say his name. I wonder..." she then walked back home.
Kaia and Vaati were in the bedroom and Vaati looked so exhausted. "That was so tiring! Never again! Well it's over now. I thought it would never end. It was just one thing after another", Vaati said as he laid on the bed. "I just hope Luella believed your words. Who knows what happens if she finds out", Kaia says. Vaati nodded. "Well, I'm very tired. I'm going to go to sleep early tonight," Vaati said as he got under the duvet. "Hey! You can't sleep in my bed!" Kaia frantically said. Vaati on the other hand just tiredly said, "Who cares. We slept in the same bed together before. Will it make any difference now?"
"Of course! Mum's here! What if she sees us sleeping in the same bed!?" Kaia exclaimed (Kaia knows nothing about Mum seeing them both in the same bed before). Vaati just shrugged. Kaia just sighed. "Fine, but don't go near me. Last time you were hugging me."
'She knew!?' Vaati thought. Kaia got under the duvet and the two fell asleep.
This is by far the longest chapter I've written so far. So then, will Luella find out Vaati's identity? We'll find out in three chapters time. A.K.A, chapter 14. How I know, it's because I have it written down. Bwa ha ha!
