(ATTICUS / NIGHT SHROUD)
While Alexis combed her long blonde locks, she thought about what Zane said when he'd come to her door that morning.
"Lex, I want to apologize, for last night. Syrus is such a goof sometimes. Kind of like Atticus."
She smiled at that comment. Zane was funny when he wanted to be.
"No big deal Zane, I can just wash it out. She then noticed the box he was holding.
"I got this for you, it's like a, "forgive me for being related to him present".
She took the box from him. The next thing he did really shocked her.
"Zane thanks. But…you really didn't have to………….
He kissed her! Sure, it was on the cheek, but it was still a………….kiss!
Zane mumbled something she couldn't hear and took of after that.
"I can't believe it, he really does like me! But, do I like him back?"
Alexis grabbed her deck, disc, and backpack, when she opened the door, she almost stepped on Syrus.
He jumped up, holding an envelope with her name on it. Alexis looked down at him curiously.
"Syrus, what are you doing here?" she asked. He looked at her tall figure standing above him.
"No wonder Zane likes her so much! Big Bro has good taste!"
"Alexis, hi I just wanted to….say sorry for last nights, uh you know, incident….."
She looked down at him squirming underneath her gaze.
"He looks absolutely nothing like Zane. I can't believe they're brothers!
"It's ok Syrus. But listen, next time, don't dance while you drink, ok?"
Syrus handed her the envelope. She took from him and turned it over slightly.
"Thanks, But I think your about to miss your first lecture today."
"Oh, I have to go. Dr. Crowler got into some kind of argument with Jaden on our way here anyway. Bye!"
"Glad that's over!"
" Now, I need to go help Jaden! Aww man………"
Alexis watched Syrus half run have fall to the Slifer red dormitory. She stepped out side smiling happily. "Today will be full of surprises!"
