DYLAN

I woke up precisely 3 hours to class. Managing to get my ass up, I filled the closet, took a quick shower and changed outfits. I decided to do without glasses. I was hungry and got out my room to whip myself something when I saw a post on Ryan's door. Our rooms are quite close, only divided by a wall. Apparently, he'd; prepared lunch which was on the table, booked a reservation at the club. I was not to be late for class and the event. In regards to the event, I had to be there before them.

Living with him would save me money in respect to food . The food was warm. It meant he hadn't been gone for long. I hurried to class after the meal. People kept staring. Very abnormal. We had English, a joint class.

" I've missed you so much " Dyllis cried out, kissing my cheeks. It was embarrassing.

" It's only been a few hours. Now, stop it " I spoke , prying her off me. She quit and took her seat by me. Olivia entered the class . She neared us, taking her seat by my side as I waved her.

" You appear more sophisticated without the glasses" she commented whilst she sat, removing her backpack from her arm.

" Where's your brother ?"

" Home " she answered , taking a notepad out her bag.

" Man. I hope we have no class tomorrow " I sighed .

" Same here. Some of us need a beauty sleep " she sighed heavily.

" What's cooking?" Dyllis wanted answers.

" Nothing deserving of your attention " I replied. Things like these don't interest her.

" All members of the Moon and Star have meeting scheduled after class" Dyllis announced. Liv nodded.

" When do you think this year's Moon competition will be held ?" I asked.

" The end of this month . All faculties should have their males ready by then " Liv explained. I nodded. The class burst with noise. Noice which reeked, MOON.

As expected, Brandon Roosevelt, Invisible Moon waltzed into the class. What was he doing in our class?. Isn't he supposed to be invisible?. That is the logic of his name.

He gave me a glance and the hair on my skin stood. A memory of the scene at the cafeteria popped up. My name sounded in that conversation.

Girls rushed to him , asking for autographs and photographs. I wondered where those minions were. After some time of attending to them, he walked straight up to me, took a pen and literally signed on my white shirt .

The audacity. Does he think washing white is easy?. More screams filled the class due to his actions. Cussing from either gender could be heard. Way to get me more enemies . Brandon is one hella trouble. He waved me and disappeared as if we were close . The girls looked at me. I had no clue what it was all about either.

Shortly after Invisible Moons departure, I informed Alton about the night's plan. My phone pinged. He replied, asking me to wait for him after class. He had a meeting and would accompany me home once he was done. I decided to tell him I'd moved in later. Class stretched, eating into our time .

.......

We stood at the front of faculty. People were gathered in small groups, talking. Females burst out screaming . You won't have to be told twice to know that somebody good looking was around . Typically , Moon. Honestly , these ladies will scream at anything with good build and in pants .

I looked up from my phone.Sure enough, it was a Moon . 3 to be precise. Silver Moon, Bright Moon and Cold Moon . The irony. They walked to our direction - Dyllis ,Liv and I. The girls missed the meeting. Class cut into that time.

More screams . These girls need to be awarded . The screams hushed into giggles and pure envy when Alton played with my hair. I smiled, playfully hitting him. Greene gave us a hard glare. He was distracted as Dyllis hugged him. He managed a smile. And I have to admit . He looks very good when he smiles. It all came down to what Silver Moon moon was doing there.

" Oh, he hasn't told you?" he asked Alton . It was then I informed him about my moving out. And he was more than happy as his lips curved into a smile . He gave me a hug. From that angle, I noticed Ezzard giving a stony expression . He cleared his throat, announcing his leave. By that time, the faculty was almost empty. Dyllis locked arms with him and hey walked away.

" Well, time for us to leave " . That was Ryan . I was confused. " Why do you think I'm here?. I need a free ride. Mine's parked at the hostel's lot" he chuckled.

" Is that a customized shirt?" . I shook my head. In seconds , Alton hand his hand on my neck, pulling me in. He traced the pattern on the shirt ever so slowly. Besides my heart picking, butterflies were at work. I'll be needing some shots to bury them. He tilted his head, his perfect face creasing with a frown.

" Brandon was here?" he asked.

" Shit " Ryan cussed. The tension could not be mistaken. How did he figure it was him?. Liv saved me the trouble of explanation.

" He appeared out of the thin air and decided Dylan was the only visible person he could sign on" . Alton's frown grew deeper. I could not stand it.

" I'll see you at the club. Ryan's been waiting long " I spoke up. He smiled and ruffled my hair.

" Sure thing. I'll meet you guys after dropping Olive off. 9: 30 right?". Ryan affirmed.

He gave me a hug before we parted ways.
