Chapter 2

NIGHT'S POV:

Upon arriving at the canteen, we encounter a large number of students. This canteen was huge, when I say huge, it was literally ten storey building just for a canteen. It also has five large elevators that can be used to go up or down here.

"Where are they?" I asked Light.  He looked at his cellphone and type something on it. All of a sudden, he lifted his head and looked at us.

"They were on the second floor."  He answered. We were about to walk when suddenly, someone grabbed my shoulder as I stopped walking and the two did the same.

I looked at its owner and saw P'Sun who was smiling at us and P'Arrow was behind him with a serious face.

I smiled. "P'Sun! P'Arrow!"  I exclaimed happily.

"Why are you still here?" P'Sun asked as he smiled again at us. P'Arrow just ruffled my hair as I chuckled and he did the same to both Fighter and Light also.

"P'Arrow, my hair is becoming messy!" Light frown and complain on him and then he fix his messy hair.

Fighter just shake his head and did the same. P'Arrow grinned as if he were still teasing while looking at us.

"We were just coming in, P'."  Fighter answered him and then he fixes my hair also.

"Let's all go together." P'Arrow said coldly. "Which floor?" He asked and put his hand around my shoulder when Fighter finished fixing my hair.

"Second floor, P'." Light answered in an annoyed tone.  P'Sun just chuckled and we all went inside. We got into the elevator with a few students with us as well.

"Which floor are you going?" A man asked. We looked at him and saw that it was Soirée Thexton Rawlins. He smiled as we looked at him, so I smiled back.

My comrades did not respond so I did it myself. "Second floor P'."  I respectfully reply to him. He nodded before pressing the number of the second floor.

Upon arriving, Fighter, Light, P'Arrow and P'Sun immediately come out but I paused for a moment because P'Soirée also came out of the elevator. I immediately looked at him and smiled, he looked at me as if asking why I am still standing in front of him.

"Thank you P'." I told him.

He smiled. "You're welcome." He responds and just wave his hand on me. I just followed my friends after that.

We approached a table with two men seating on it. One of them is reading a book while the other one I think is playing on his cellphone, as always.

Many students were eating here and they all seem to be staring right now at our table. Some of them staring like they aren't care about us at all while others are full of disgusted expressions.

"Why are we always getting too much attention?" Light asked in an annoyed tone then he sat next to P'Ocean. Both of the olders looked at the us and then they put aside what they were doing.

P'Air immediately smiled when he noticed my presence and pull me into a bone crashing hug.

"C-can't b-breath!" I complain while having a hard time. He chuckled and released me eventually. Damn this guy!

As soon as I wasn't in his gripped anymore, I immediately saw them all shaking their heads. They are already used to that action of P'Air towards me.

"That's because, we are a bunch of nerds. Take note, not just one but seven people." Fighter answered to him and he even rolled his eyes.

"What's wrong with that?" Light asked in an annoyed tone again.

"It's between the ideas of stereotyping and understanding, Light." I just answered briefly and wondered where I was going to sit.

"Sit down next to me, baby Night." P'Air said and I pouted hearing what he just called me.

"I'm not a baby, P'Air." I'm complaining but I still sat next to him with Fighter. On the other side of the table, P'Sun, P'Arrow, Light and P'Ocean sat there.

"But you are our only baby who needs us to protect." P'Sun said sweetly and smiled as the others nodded in agreement.

I huffed. "I'm still older than Light and Fighter." I complained while pouting at them. Among all of us, Fighter is the youngest, next to him is Light which makes me the oldest among us three.

"But you act like a child than us."  Fighter said in a sarcastic tone. I just pouted again.

They smiled at me. P'Ocean looks at me and then pinch my cheeks softly.

"What do you wanna eat, baby?"  He asked sweetly. As usual, he was the calmest and composed person I ever encountered.

"He wants pizza, orange juice and leche flan." Fighter reply instead of me. Well, he asked me the same thing earlier. I fix my glasses and nod at what he said.  "Who will going to order this time?" He then asked.

"I will." P'Arrow insisted and look at the direction of P'Ocean. "You will come with me, P'." He also added and the latter nod in agreement.

They gave everything they wanted to eat so both of them stood up from their seats to buy.

"So, are you ready on your exam?" P'Air asked as the two left.

Light groaned a little. "I'm too lazy to study." He said. "I don't have any notes either." He complained also which became a reason for him to receive death glares from the olders.

I chuckled when I saw him swallowed his own saliva. "Lazy male check!" I teased him and then I laugh. The look of horror is very visible on his face while looking at the males in front of him.

"What did Light do again this again?" The person who suddenly arrived asked this question. He put the tray he was holding on the table and then another man also gave us the foods he bought.

P'Air scoffed. "I think, we have to do something to this little brother of ours." He seriously answered which became the reason why Light swallowed again. He was already sweating and I knew that his supposed to be study session will never be easy.

"Good luck to you, Light."  Fighter said boredly and ate the food he bought. I did the same and then I patted Light's shoulder softly.

"Even if you're lazy, you still have to study and I think you're going to experience a lot of hardship when you study this time." I said while shaking my head. Whenever he was not studying when we were still in Senior high school, he was always taught by P'Sun, P'Ocean, P'Arrow and P'Air. They will not let him stop until he completes the tasks assigned to him.

"Ahmm, I c-can s-still m-manage." He said while stuttering.  He doesn't really want to. Well, I can't really blame him though.

"No!" P'Arrow protests in a serious tone. "We knew that you could even beat your department's top one but we knew better too, you're just going to spend your time into waste again, Light." He added that P'Ocean immediately nodded.

"So, let's put this way." I said and smirked.

They all stopped eating then turned their heads on my direction. "Oh no, I smell something bad is going to happen." P'Sun said while shaking his head.

"What is it, baby?" P'Arrow asked.

I smirked because of it. "Let's make a bet." I answered excitedly.

"What is the bet about?" Fighter asked who seems to be interested now in what I am going to say. They all looked up to me and waited for me to speak.

I smiled innocently. "If Light beat their top one, we will go to let him travel in whenever he wants for three days alone. We will going to pay everything he needs from his ticket to a place he will be going to stay in." I started.  Light's face lit up a little and then he smiled when he heard about it. "But, if he fails, he will go to do everything we want." I added.

His smile suddenly vanished. "It seems like I don't want to make this bet anymore." He said hesitantly.

"No!" I stopped him. "If you back out, P'Arrow, P'Sun and P'Air will tutor you." I threatened him.

"F-fine!" He replied while frowning." I will study starting tonight. I will beat her and you were all going to give me my vacation for free." He said while smirking.

I laughed a little until I felt a sense of silence all around us. We immediately looked at each other and turned our heads in the direction of the elevator.

Six men stood there and one of them released a frigid presence.  I roam my eyes around and realize that everyone stays quiet but amazement were still at everyone's eyes.

I shake my head and continued eating quietly. My friends did the same thing until we were already done.

It was still quiet, its as if everyone is eyeing every move of the newcomers like they are all a predator that is ready to jump on their preys. They just bought their foods and proceed to the table away from us from us.

"Are you finished?" P'Sun asked us gently.

We nodded one by one and stood up. It was still so silent as we walked to the elevator and entered on it. I was halfway between P'Arrow and P'Air so I was really in the center of the elevator. As I lifted my gaze out of the elevator, I immediately froze on my spot and my eyes widened in surprise. Before the Elevator's door closed, the eyes of the coldest man in the whole school and I locked with each other.

His stares were cold but it sent a feeling of something in my chest.  We just looked at each other, no one was blinking until the door really closed.

That's the time I realize something. What was that? Did I just stared back to Ethereal Equinox Zander? To the most popular male in this school? To the most intelligent human being in this prestigious school? Oh, shit. Am I going to die now?
