Previously..

"Do you miss looking at them?" The tan's shoulder dropped in a relaxed manner as the blonde gently shook his head unknowingly making the said girl gasp.

'How dare you say such t--?!'

'I'm looking at them now, though..' Viktor thought to himself, giggling as he averted his gaze away from the still furious girl.

He never knew that the stars would be a big deal to someone like Estelle De Guzman, the thousand or even billion sparkling stars he used to ignore every night was actually being yearned by someone at the other side of the earth.

. . .

"Estelle is a cheater!"

A voice exclaimed as the blonde foreign boy and the tanned young astronomer quickly whipped their heads towards the direction of the voice to see Aurora and Dylan by the doorway giving them playful glares.

Aurora who's still in her club outfit, a chef's cap, a white apron with a printed name of their club, 'Baking Club' holding a cupcake tray filled with five cupcakes.

Dylan who's still in his swimsuit, his wet bare chest still drenched with pool water, a swimmer cap with blue goggles on display.

"Hey! I'm not a cheater! Plus, Viktor didn't even decide which club to choose yet! He just paid a quick visit." Estelle quickly sprinted towards the blonde fuming girl, reassuringly patting the blondie's shoulder.

"Yeah sure.." Dylan sarcastically cooed, squinting his eyes to the tan who mirrored his look as they exchanged glares.

"Anyways--!" Aurora exclaimed once again, shoving two cupcakes to the raven swimmer and tanned astronomer as they happily devoured the icing of the cupcake. "Since that Viktor is here, let's decide clubs with him!" She inquired, handing the blonde boy a cupcake topped with blue icing.

"I mean.. i don't really mind choosing the Astronomy Club. Estelle seemed pretty lonely by herself here too.." Viktor shrugged his shoulders, caressing the cupcake in his hands at the same time as the blonde femme frowned by this.

"So, you're only joining this club because of pity?" Aurora frowned, placing the cupcake tray on the table before crossing her arms towards the blonde boy who quickly shook his head in denial.

"No! No! I didn't interpret it that wa--!"

"I don't mind either! I mean--.. the president is actually planning on removing this club due to the lack of members.. well, she said three members is the minimum, but i'm only by myself here." Estelle muffled, her cheeks still filled with cupcakes as she heavily sighed, her shoulders dropped while her face showed an upset expression.

"But i thought Ms President said that this club was an exception?" Dylan knitted his brows together, leaning on the table as he looks around the room.

A knock interrupted them as they paused, whipping their heads towards the door to see the certain girl they're currently talking about.

Everyone flinched except the blonde foreign boy as everyone stood straight frozen and stunned by the President's presence as the latter stepped inside the room.

Kierra Crowshoe, The School's Female President.

"Well, this club is indeed an exception." The bob cut haired girl with plump pinkish lips, a flawless face and long eye-catching lashes gave the four a small smile. "Temporarily an exception." She added, her small smile dropped as the raven swimmer snickered.

"Girls with a's on the end of their names are indeed evil.." Dylan murmured as the blonde baker beside him glared at him, he inclined away in realization.

"I mean.. i did realize that i was spoiling this little kitten too much~" Kierra cooed, softly caressing the tan's golden dark brown hair in a flirtatious manner.

"I-I don't think she's evil.." Viktor mumbled, making his way between the two as the three of them stared at the short haired girl who's currently staring at the weirded out tan in admiration. "I think she fancies Estelle..?" He added.

"Fancies?" Dylan raised his brows in confusion as the blonde boy nods.

"Kierra seemed to grow admiration towards Estelle." The blonde explained furthermore as the raven swimmer and the blonde girl 'ooh's in realization.

"Uhm-- Hello?! Lovebirds?! How about snapping out of reality?! That might be better?!" Aurora screeched, catching the two's attention as the bobcut haired girl chuckled horrendously.

"Reality might be better? Reality isn't even good to begin with! I would rather be stuck in my thoughts, imagining fake scenarios being with the person i like." The latter purred, grazing her fingers on the tan's delicate ones, intertwining them afterwards.

"That's fruity.. but maybe scary at the same time." Dylan shrugged his shoulders, curling his lips downwards as Viktor gave him a confused look.

"Fruity?"

"Yup, it's a term people use when two girls are acting like.. that." The raven points towards the two said girls, the blonde boy nods pinning that thought on his head.

"We're barely 30 minutes on this and these two are almost making out while you two are discussing gen-z lessons, for the love of god." Aurora groans in annoyance as she grabs the empty cupcake tray, placing the last cupcake on the table. "And Viktor." She added as the blonde boy sprinted towards her.

"Yes?" He blinked a few times, questioningly.

"Do me a favor and help Estelle." Aurora whispered, patting the blonde boy's shoulder as Viktor confusingly stared at the blonde girl who quickly sauntered out the room.

"Wait! Help her with Kierra or the club..?"

. . .

"Ms President is literally whipped for you, no doubt." Dylan snorted, holding his stomach.

They've been laughing for hours now since the club period and now they're on their way home. Time does flies by when you're having fun.

The four's laughter then toned down as they arrived outside the building, they looked around seeing different circles of friends laughing and bidding goodbye outside the gate.

"Well, i'll be heading off first! Goodbye!" Estelle giggled, waving bye to the three who waved back as she jogged out the campus.

"Aren't we going to discuss about the Astronomy Club first?" Viktor cleared his throat as the two looked at each other then back at the foreign boy.

"We'll be talking about it tomorrow morning. Estelle went off quickly anyway before we can even say anything." Dylan cackled as Aurora nods in agreement.

"Well, me and Dylan's house are only a few blocks away so, we'll be heading off now. Bye Viktor!" The blonde latter runs off, grabbing the raven's wrist, pulling the swimmer with her out the campus leaving the blonde foreign boy alone.

Viktor hummed, walking towards the parking lot of the school where his bike is parked.

He gripped on the handlebars of the bike before dragging it outside, deciding on walking down the sidewalk first to admire the scenery of the Winter Islands since there were no sunsets sadly.

He took a deep breath before jumping onto the seat of his bicycle as he started peddaling down the street. The cold winter breeze made him shiver on his bike as he shook it off, peddaling faster and faster.

His eyes darted upwards, seeing every streetlight open as he pass by suddenly on sync as this made a small smile crawled up to his lips, his gaze moved towards the teenagers with the same uniform as his walking down the sidewalk, walking home.

His neck whipped towards the other side of the street to see men and women wearing business suits, others are on their way to work while others are on their way home or either towards bars and restaurants nearby.

Birds flew in a certain direction towards their nests for bedtime, stray cats who are seemingly huddled in groups cleaning themselves by the street.

He turned right as his bike sped up, he blinked as the time suddenly slowed down again.

So gracefully, his head slowly turned towards the sidewalk by his right, his soft wavy blonde hair dancing with the cold winter breeze as his eyes widened as his pupils dilated seeing a certain girl jogging down the side of the street while firmly holding onto the strap of her shoulder bag.

Her golden dark brown hair now tied up in a white scrunchie, her bright sweat beads complemented the shade of her skin very well.

The latter instinctively and so suddenly whipped her head towards her left as the two locked eye contact, both their eyes widened in sync.

The time once again went back to its normal pace.

The blonde foreign boy jolts, suddenly losing his balance on his bike as he silently shrieked, slamming both of his feet down the ground as he pulls the brakes.

He sighed in relief, looking back to the tanned girl who's not there anymore, he hummed confusingly, darting his eyes everywhere as he looks for the latter, but decided not to as he then shakes his head, shaking the thought off.

He lifted one foot off the ground as he started paddling down the road again.

His first day of school was a very long day, though many things happened, he'll surely remember every moment.
