'It's been a week since Lucielle and I started life at the Academy…'
As Rey sat in his seat, staring blankly in front of him as the Instructor entered the classroom, his thoughts began to slightly trail.
'So far, I can say we've adjusted to life here pretty well.' He glanced towards Lucielle's position, and their eyes met at that very moment.
'Ah, yikes!'
He quickly looked away, but not before catching her smiling at him.
'Lucielle and I spend hours communicating through [Link], so in a way… I can say we've grown closer. Still, memories of that kiss sometimes flash in my mind, and that makes things very awkward for me.'
At the very least, Rey was thankful that he was the only one who remembered it.
'In any case, a lot of buzz has been going on lately.' Rey looked around him and he could see the overt expressions of excitement on the faces of his classmates.
He knew why they were all like this.
