Stars Are Falling

Edward was quieter than usual. He tried his best to compose his inner self when he heard that Alicia wanted to invite that cute junior over to join them for lunch. The madwoman mentioned that Scarlet had a shy streak and warned Mike to watch his mouth.

On the surface, Edward looked like he was having a bad day. On the inside, he was full of many emotions. One side of him was thrilled to finally meet his texting pal and secret crush. A small part of him still wasn't keeping up with reality. The spy side of him knew that this would be the perfect opportunity to get closer to Scarlet so that he could watch over her better. Then again, the wolfish side of him wanted to use his mission as an excuse to get closer to Scarlet. He wanted to flirt with her just to watch her reactions and pretend to be a different person just so that he can protect both his texting buddy identity and his spy identity by hiding behind the new identity he had as Alicia's friend.
