I closed my eyes feeling the sun going through my wet clothes.

It's been some hours since we ate ice cream, and we were hungry. Elden was even more hungry because he didn't have any ice cream.

We were completely dried off and got up and walked back on the side walk. deciding on where should we go next to eat.

"Neophyte you pick!" Nico said jumping up. "What do you want to eat?"

"Umm..." I wasen't really sure. But an idea popped in my head. "How about we go to Ashida's favorite cheese cake shop?" I said pointing out my finger.

"That sounds great!" Nico shouted clapping her hands. "What do ya' say Elden."

"I don't care, as long as it's food." Elden said with drool coming out his mouth like he was a creep.

"Ew." I said stepping away from him.

Nico sweat dropped.

"Off to the cheese cake shop we go!"

I looked on Elden's watch. It was about four thirty, Ashida told us to get home safe around dark time. We had plenty of time left.

We walked to our destination, while Nico skipped there. We pointed out some more cool things. Like fountain statues and cool paintings for sale. We finger painted some paintings, but we got kicked out as it turned into a pain fight. Which I thought was funny, everything with Nico and Elden is funny.

Then we finally arrived there.

When we walked in cool air hit my face, it felt so good. Then a wonderful scent went up my nose. Cheese cake. It smelled like those good lotions people would get, but it was real and edible.

A man with a chubby cheeks, and a large bakery hat spoke to us.

"Hello Nicolsa and Elden, what will I get you today?" He had a cheery warm smile.

Nico waved and yelled. "Hi Chef Innie!"

Elden just drooled through the glass separating him from the cheese cake.

"Where is Ashida? He always comes here with you to the shop!" Chef Innie asked.

"He's at home, we were showing Neophyte around!" Nico said pointing towards me.

The chef drifted his pearly eyes to me. "Ah, the new comer in town? I see."

I bowed saying 'Hello' and 'Nice to meet you'.

"Get whatever cheesecake you want darling, and I'll give you a discount!" He blinked his pearly eyes and smiled at me.

I looked around. They all looked so good.

"I can't choose, there are too many." I said laughing softly while scratching my head.

"That's fine, I'll make you my special cheese cake!" He said writing it down.

"Really?" I asked smiling. "Thanks!"

Chef Innie.

Another friend on my list.

The old man at the shop is my friend too! Urm... but I don't know his name.

"Elden I'm suggesting you want your favorite Pineapple Upside-down cheese cake you orded last time?"

"Yeshh." Elden said as his tounge was on the glass.

Me and Nico sweat dropped.

"Nico I'm suggesting you want your favorite toasted marshmallow S'mores galore?" Chef Innie asked politely as he wrote it down on his list.

"YESS!" And soon Nico was drooling every where too.

"Gross..." I scooted away from there while sitting down.

We all waited awhile till cheff Innie came back out with miny bags with cheese cake in them.

He handed us four bags.

"The fourth one is free for Ashida! It's his favorite one! Have a wonderful day!" Chef Innie yelled, as Elden payed for us again.

"Thanks Elden." Me and Nico said.

"It's nothing." We all sat down at a nearby table outside the shop and had our cheese cake.

"So which cheese cake did you get?" Nico said as her cheese cake was completely gone.

"Umm... I don't know." I said starring at it. It was white cheese cake with whipped cream on top, dashed with blue berry syrup and three blue berries on top.

"Looks yummy..." Elden said starring at it, while his cheese cake was gone too.

"Lay off!" I said threatening him with my fork.

"I don't know that one, but mine was yummy!" Nico said licking her lips.

I soon finished mine without it being token by Elden and we walked around again, visiting booths, laughing and smiling.

We were walking all the way back home again as it was getting sunset. Passing the Magical Gift shop, and Ice cream stand.

"Alright, I guess I'll take you two home." Elden said stretching.

"Aren't w going to see your house?" I asked concerned.

"Why do you wan't to see where I live?" Elden replied back bluntly.

"Because I wan't to know!" I said folding my arms.

"Stalker." Elden mumbled under his breath.

"I heard that!" I yelled at him. "At least I asked and not followed you home, like those creeps do to find your location."

"Neophyte has a point there!" Nico said laughing her butt off.

"Alright then... Let's go." Elden said rubbing his neck as we followed him.

Instead of going to Ashida's house we turned a corner going in a different direction.

We stopped at a two story house, with a wooden porch. There was an outside patio on the second floor.

Elden wasen't that far from Nico.

Elden pulled out a silver key from his pockets and unlocked the door.

We went in a very neat and clean home, and took off our shoes.

"I'm home pops!" Elden screamed scaring me in the process.

A guy in his late 30's came out looking related to Elden.

"Welcome back!" He said while patting Elden's head while Elden got annoyed fast.

"This is your pops?" I asked concerned that he looked young for his age.

"No, he's my uncle. I just call him that because he's old and he stinks." Elden said crossing his arms.

"WHAT?" His uncle yelled out fake crying. "I'm only thirty five, and I don't stink! How dare you say that Elden!"

"Yeah, if you want to believe that, I'll let you just so you can sleep at night." Elden said annoyed.

"Oooh, I've seen you have brang some ladies tonight!" The emotional man came over to us shaking our hands.

Me and Nico, and Elden sweat dropped.

"Hello, ladies, my name is Uncle Tim, and come over wheneverrr you like!" Uncle Tim said with hearts in his eyes.

"Eww, gross!" Elden exclaimed. "They are kids, lay off!" He said waving his hands in the air, and then hitting him in the head with a text book. "That'll do him for the night." Elden said smirking.

"Uncle Tim!" Nico shouted worried.

I sweat dropped. He just knocked out his Uncle.

With a text book.

They must have a good relationship.

"Don't worry about him, he will be just fine." Elden said going upstairs as we followed him.

"Nico has been here several times, but I'll still show you around."

We went through a hall way and he opened door showing us bathrooms, storage rooms, and closets.

"Last but not least, my room." He opened up a large boyish room.

He had black walls and dark blue carpet.

We all walked in, and a puppy runs up to me and Nico and licks us.

"RUFUS!" Nico screamed.

"Why didn't you tell me you had a dog?" I asked him petting it gently.

"I don't know, why would I?" Elden asked making it complicated.

I sat on his twin sized bed and looked around.

"Finally some sitting down time!" I said sighing and stretching.

"Don't sit on my bed!" Elden exclaimed while I pulled my socks off.

"Why not?" I asked getting comfy.

"Because, your a girl your not suspose to like my room." He said stating the obvious.

"Fine instead of sitting, I'll just lay on it." I said smirking while stretching some more.

"Don't lay on it either!" Elden said, raising a fist.

I observed his boyish room some more, he had a desk with school work on it, with books and note book paper. On his desk he had half eaten candy and a cup of pencils and pens.

"So school starts Monday right?" I asked.

Nico and Elden nodded.

While Nico was playing with Elden's puppy.

"Don't worry, you will get caught up soon. We are not working on any projects right now." Elden said while spinning in his desk chair.

"Good." I said having a sigh of relief happy that it didn't seem hard.

"Usually when we are on a project we have partners so we won't be confused. You can me my partner, since we live closer, for now on." Elden said while throwing me a heavy text book, so I wouldn't have to rub in his kindness.

"Ow!" I said as he through it at my lap. "What's this?" It was a thick red text book. I'll say more than one thousand pages.

"That's a book you'll be carrying around most of the time." Said calmly, like it was not big deal.

" Yeah right. This heavy thing?" I said struggling to lift it up.

"Yup, It's a book where we study on, and learn new topics." He said tossing another book over my lap.

I jumped as the huge thing landed on my lap. "Would you stop doing that?!" I asked holding up a fist.

It was a blue book, the same weight as the red one.

"That one is the one you always take to training hours." He said simply.

"I thought you trained in training hours." I blurted out confused.

"You learn too."

I struggled as I tried to throw the heavy books back to him, as they landed on the middle of the floor, with a loud 'thump' scaring the puppy.

"Anyway..." I spoke changing the subject ignoring my weakness that I couldn't throw a book properly. "Why is your dog, locked up in here?" I asked.

"He chose to stay in here, because he's scared of my Uncle."

Me and Nico sweat dropped.

"Plus his food and water is in here." He said pointing to, two bowls.

"I'm suggesting you found out you had a Uncle here in Choro Enyi, when you came here?" I suggested.

"Yeah, long story, short. I found out he had the same last name, and he was my mom's brother. So I lived with him" Elden said while getting up. "Alright it's getting dark, time to go."

"Wait, let me see something." I said getting off his bed , and running over to his curtains, and sliding open a door behind them.

I stepped out on to his outside patio. It was a good few of everything. I could see the sun setting all the way down, while I looked to the other side, and the moon was out.

"What are you doi-" Elden peeked through the curtains to his patio.

"You have a patio and didn't tell me?" I said looking at him.

"Yeah, so what it's just a stupid patio..." Elden said looking away.

"You come out here every night don't you?" I asked sadly, knowing he was probably thinking about his mom.

"What are you blabbering about, let's go." He said going back in his room from the curtains. I slid the door back as I walked back in, and put my socks back on.

We all walked downstairs while the puppy stayed in Elden's room, and slipped our shoes on. We opened the door and walked out, while Nico was on Elden's back sleeping.

She was really tired, we had a long day today.

We turned some corners and finally arrived at our home, and slid the door open, and being welcomed by Ashida, and Bengal.

"Welcome back!" He greeted us. "He seen Nico on Elden's back and took Nico to her room.

"Today was exhausting, I'm wore out." Elden said petting Bengal.

"Me too, but I hope we can hang out like that again." I said yawning.

I sat down the cheese cake on the table putting a note saying 'To Ashida' on it.

As Bengal and me was walking up the steps, Elden told me goodnight.

I stopped and looked back.

"Goodnight Elden." I smiled, he smiled back.

And then he left and went home.

I picked out some pajamas, and took a shower. I was really sleepy till the shower woke me up again.

When I was clean, I threw on my pajamas and, when I lied down in my bed with Bengal, I got sleepy again, as I pulled the covers over my face.

I looked at Bengal as he yawned. I smiled and pet him.

"Goodnight."
