Chapter 27

Time passed by and still no sign of wanting to stop chit-chatting, their little chat made Victoria feel nostalgic, and the moments she basically messed with the both of her 'minions'.

And speaking of which a blonde haired female popped into Victoria's evil mind, curiosity bugged her big time, tilting her head to the side she batted her eyelashes at the man in front of her.

"Lumic darling, you never actually introduced me to your girl, I already met Eddy's. How bout yours? When can I finally- personally; meet her? I do hope she'll pass my stages, I don't want to have another cry baby on the family" she stated eyeing Edward by the end of her statement, raising his shoulder he looked at her mutter a low 'what?'.

"Lisa Heart, that's her name" Lumic answered while slouching on his seat, not liking where the conversation is going.

"Now, now, we all do know her name, what I want to know is, how did you end up with her? Not ill speaking, but" sighing and rubbing her templates, she looked up at the man with pity.

"She's too good for you"

Looking at her like she just gone crazy, both men sighed and face palmed at the end of her sentence, Victoria gazed at the too sighing teen, clearly not fazed of what she just said.

His reaction intrigue Victoria's curiosity even more, she looked at Edward with an eyebrow raised hoping to get an answer from the male who casually sat next to her.

Wiggling her eyebrows at the men beside her he knows what that meant, although sadly, her question was only answered by shrugging his shoulder while making a sorry face.

"Don't ask me, ask the one who's in that mess" Edward answered while messing his hair.

Groaning she is now facing Lumic with a straight face and a wanting-to-know expression, she mentally took note of how grown her minions were, 'God how time pass by so quick' the last time she saw them was when snot were still dripping down on navy head and a drool hanging at the side of night sky's lip, 'ah memories'.

Sighing in defeat he stared at the woman before him, somehow he suddenly felt a small tug on his lip, he was grinning, oh so slightly grinning 'can't really hide things from her' he thought and finally look at her in her hazel nut colored eyes, staring deeply at them somehow he can not seem to look away.

Finally realizing he was staring at her, he finally looked away as his heart was beating so madly in his chest, trying to calm his heart down without giving away any hints he took deep breaths without them noticing.

"It's a long story though" he warned, still not looking at her.

"I've got time" Victoria countered now looking smug, but at the back of her mind she was curious on why he stopped for a moment.

"It's a really big misunderstanding" Lumic started, remembering what they were talking about he was now looking serious and confused at the same time.

"Let me guess, other night sky?" Victoria smirked at her wild guess.

"It's just plain black" Lumic side comment.

As they continued to talk and interrogate Lumic, unbeknownst to the three a duo awaited for them to finally come out. A girl who is anxious to face Victoria's wrath and a chill man, who is still fascinated by her grand entrance, 'She still got guts' he smirked and grinned.

"What are you grinning about?!" she anxiously yelled at the chill guy beside her, who in return just looked at her trembling figure.

"Way to point out the obvious nerd, you're literally pointing it out that you're still sacred of her" he complained, now leaning on the wall with his arms crossed.

"Because I'm literally still- partially; freaking scared of her!" she squeaked and fumed trying to wash the anxiousness away.

It has been quite a while since they last saw each other, the last time she saw her was when Victoria literally tried to help her boosting her confidence and defenses, and by that Victoria literally dragged her to a self-defense class full of strangers.

That was the last time she saw her, after that class she forgot that she had to say good bye it was when she got home when she remembered, and now who knows what will Victoria do to her? A sudden chill run down her spine, just thinking about the brunette woman inside made her pale and eyes grow wide.

"Relax Lev, as if she's really going to hurt you, you two are best buds! Hell if she's going to hurt anyone that would be the two inside this room" he reassured, not really convincing but bearable.

"Not helping! The last time you said that was when she nearly wrestled the life out of me!" she whined facing the man that was leaning on the wall.

Abruptly bending her little knees, and focusing her little might unto her hands she immediately throw a punch on guy's stomach. Not at all knowing what just happened he grunted and groaned clutching his pained stomach, 'Should've shut my trump!' he internally scolded himself.

As he was clutching his stomach and dropping to the floor, it was just in time when the door on Lumic's office suddenly opened, revealing a stunned Victoria and a wide eyed Edward and an unfazed Lumic 'Totally had it in her, since the day she met Victoria' he smirked and looked at the fallen man.

"What are you smirking at shady pig?" he grunted and poised himself as if nothing happened.

"Ho ho, who's this guy?" Victoria questioned looking at her two minions while pointing at the man on the floor.

"That's Stephen, remember? Stephen the cry baby and needs a lot of saving from the playground slide?" Edward answered having an eyebrow raised, in return Victoria did the same then looked back at Stephen then back at Edward.

"Impossible, the Stephen I know would never attend class without his little milk bottle- well that is except when you threaten him, and after bawling his eyes out for a whole one hour" Victoria mumbled loud enough for the group to hear her.

"Ha! As if! I can go to school without that milk bottle and without crying! You're remembering some other Stephen" he boasted triumphantly as well as convincing her that she's remembering some other Stephen than him.

"Yup that's milk boy alright, still doing his 'persuade and convince someone' man do you not ever get bored with that?" Victoria concluded and asked, turning her head, she smirked and now her attention was on the other girl.

"Ho, still hasn't grown now ha?" she said while eyeing their breast part, as if she knows what she's talking about the girl immediately covered her breast with her small hands, she furrow her eyebrows and pouted at Victoria.

"Hey! Just cause they're small doesn't mean you can brag about YOURS!" she countered emphasizing the word ＹＯＵ���Ｓ and eyed her large breast.

"Ah, I see she still hasn't change much, but no worries, I can change that" Victoria eyed her deviously, and knowing her it meant that either a broken bone or a broken BONES.

"Venus Victoria Lumier, don't you dare" she glared still covering her small B cupped breast.

"Oh finally standing up to me now ey', Levy Stien?" Victoria stated, making Levy smirk a little, she had her chance now but she knows when a Lumier does shit she will really do shit.

Finally composing themselves, Victoria eyed the duo intently, as if something was going on between the two. As if a light bulb suddenly light up her mind finally concluded, smirking darkly as she- what others might say for her it's what she'd always wear when she gets something good.

Levy or 'Bee' as some people- her close friends; would call her noticed the dark glint in her eyes, 'Oh uh' she internally screamed for help 'Oh dear God, let her not think what I thought she is thinking' Levy pleaded hoping her cries would be heard.

"Don't tell me, you two finally confessed, didn't you?" wiggling her eyebrows she grinned at the two.

"So! Who confessed? Was it bee here or did milk boy finally got the balls to do so?" she smirked liking the way of how the two reacted, all bashful and red.

"What? No it's- it's not what you're thinking!!!" Levy shouted all defensive, shaking her head from right to left, flustered from the sudden question, while Stephen on the other hand just covered his face with his hand and not looking at anyone just glancing from here to there.

"Oh shush! I remember when we we're all younger on how you'd praise and stick with Stephen, and don't get me started about this guy!" she exclaimed pointing her thumb at the fidgeting man.

"I once even heard him muttering at a tree about how cute Levy was ha! And you all thought I was the crazy one"

"Shut up!" both yelled simultaneously making Victoria's smirk widen.

"Say, what time is it?" Edward finally spoke breaking the moment of the two flustered pair.

"I nearly forgot you were there" she pointed out making Edward and Lumic sweat drop.

"Sorry to burst the reunion but it's already lunch time, how about we continue this- whatever this is; at the cafeteria, no?" Lumic interrupted.

While they were on their way towards the cafeteria, Victoria suddenly caught a glimpse of night sky, following them. Smirking as she suddenly come into a halt, she didn't waste a single speck and run towards the dark haired man who she suddenly grew interested in.

Popping his head out to see where his brother and friends were going he suddenly saw a flash of brown, and the next thing he knows was that he was being dragged by his girl friend- apparently he still doesn't get the meaning of girlfriend and a girl friend; look a like named Venus Victoria.

Looking at the dragged night sky she just stole, she found him dazed at her. Grinning her signature grin at him he suddenly found himself returning the gesture, running together to who knows where.

Meanwhile . . . . . . .

"Isn't that Ven- I mean Victoria?" a girl pointed at the pair who was making a run for it.

A blonde haired woman heard what the girl said and immediately turned her head towards the said pair, stunned and jealous she quickly walked out, trying to hold the tears that was brimming to come down.

~'~'~'~'

Panting and gasping, they finally stopped running, although unbeknownst to the two that their fingers were still locked together.

"Now that was a good run" Victoria commented trying to regain her composure and breathing,

"Indeed, but, where are we?" Lumic panted asking.

Looking around they finally noticed they were nowhere they have been to, all they know was that they were surrounded with cherry blossoms. Blooming and having a a pink and white colored petals hanging and dropping.

"Hey look! It's of the same color as your shirt!" she beamed at Lumic making his cheeks flushed and pout, sinking unto his ground he muttered.

"It's not pink"

After a minute of wandering they finally saw a bench and sat under the cherry blossom, petals suddenly started to fall as the wind blows. Turning her head at her companion she eyed him, studying every feature he has.

"I never really got the chance to meet you" she muttered lowly, hoping he didn't hear her mumble, but of course the Neel brother's has a high sense of hearing, not bothering to ask why when she suddenly spoke.

"I never actually got to introduce myself" she grinned and stood up extending her arms towards the pinkie.

"Hi, the name's Venus Victoria Lumier, nice to finally meet you" Victoria introduced emphasizing the name Victoria.

Lumician nodded and stared at her processing every word she said, a moment later maybe around thrity seconds he finally understood and stood up rubbing both of his hands unto his side to rub the sweats away.

He placed his hand unto hers, liking the way how her hand fits in his, he looked at Victoria and smiled at her. Making the brunette blush in a way that can't be seen, a small tint of pink was painted on her cheeks.

"I'm Lumician, Lumician Neel, nice to meet you too, Victoria" he beamed and shook hands, after one shake Victoria immediately took her hand away and face the opposite way.

"Whatever" she muttered making the boy next to her chuckle.
