On the other hand, Luna was utterly shocked where as Valerius was cool as always like he knew what was going to happen.
"Now, start putting up your camps. You will help each other in every task. " Saying that the teacher went to her camp which was already settled. Luna was still processing the fact that she has to share her tent with that scary guy, that's when someone snapped his fingers in front of his face. When she turned to see who it was, she found a familiar figure. Standing infront of her was Daniel ruffling his hair with his hands. "Too bad. I don't get to share the tent with you. I hoped to getting to know you better." Daniel winked and made a innocent face which made Luna burst into laugh.
"Hey, hey! Why are you laughing? Don't you care about my feelings?" He again said with a bit of sadness in his voice.
"Oh, no it's not that. The look on your face was just a bit funny." Luna tried to supress her laugh as she wanted to laugh even more at his pouted face.
"It's ok. I guess, I'll get to know you after this so-called camping." Daniel winked as he leaned in to whisper something in Luna's ear. "Will you go on a date with me next Friday?" Daniel asked on which Luna stammered, "Huh?..wh.... what....d.did.."
"Don't answer now. Take your time but give me your answer after this camp. I'll wait." Daniel said by maintaining the gap between them as he realised that he was standing too close and right after that he left. Kiara who was standing just behind her was watching all this with her jaw drop.
*********************
From outside Valerius seemed to be very calm but from inside he was fuming, his blood was boiling with anger. Yes, he had listened every single word of their conversation, he had seen every little action of that Daniel guy. He just wanted to go there and rip him into pieces. Raymond on the other hand was watching everything calmly. He even stopped Valerius from going there cause he knew that it will do nothing except creating a scene.
"What. The. Hell. Just. Happened?????" Kiara exclaimed not hiding how shocked she was. "I don't know. I am also just surprised as you are." Luna replied.
"Are you gonna say yes to him?" Kiara asked her with a huge grin on her face as if she had been asked on a date and not Luna. "I ..." Just when Luna was going to complete her sentence, a pair of big hands pulled her and started dragging her. "Hey, mister! you are hurting me and who the hell are you?" Luna shouted at the huge figure who was still dragging her continuously without looking back or even sparing a glance at her.
Suddenly he stopped at his pace and Luna fell on the ground. Then, he turned around to face the girl who was lying in front of him on her knees.Luna wanted to slap to whoever he was. But when she brought her face up to see who it was, her jaw dropped in a awe.
"Were you planning to stand there all day and talk?" He spoke.
It was Valerius.
There was something in him. His eyes were so dark but with so much light in them, His voice was so deep yet so calm and soothing that was making her listen him.
She was going to protest about the way he dragged her but looking at him, she couldn't, but just stared at his face.
"Ahem, you know, it's bad to stare." He coughed. Only then she realised that she was staring too much and now she was red like riped tomato.
She got up from the ground. "I think we should get started with the work. It's getting late." She hurriedly replied and went to the place where they had to put their tent. Valerius silently followed her.
After setting up the tent, they both went to have their dinner. Valerius wanted to know about her. There must be something through which he can confirm if she is her or not. "So, What your parents do?" He asked on which Luna choked. "Hey, take some water!" Luna took the glass from his hands and drank the water.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to startled you." He said, his face showing millions of emotions.
"It's ok. Actually, I don't talk about them." Her face remained expressionless as she told him.
Just when Valerius was going to say something, she continued.
"I never saw them. As much as I remember, I was in a orphanage. The orphan keeper told me that he found me lying on a bench. When I was seven, a family adopted me but never treated me like their own child. And then when I was fifteen, they kicked me out of the house cause i wanted to study."
Valerius was left speechless. He didn't know what to say, so he can comfort her. He couldn't find words so he just hugged her from behind.
Luna gasped.
