CREASE!
The door opens, with a man entering wearing a silky white overcoat, closing the door with his another arm subconsciously as his another arm was occupied with a bag. He turned around to saw the whole hall out. No signs of people around.. He sighs..
~ Well I guess I came late?..
As he unconsciously lifted his left hand over his sight. The hour was 12:43 AM.
~ Well.. Too early I guess..
– I'm starving..
Ender scratches his chin before the started ambling together, he sensed something and glance at his corner sight. To saw Lisa standing there, curious expression, arms crossed. Wearing her usual house dress.
"Too early."
He mumbled with a smile.
"Yeah.. Just was bored there. But I do bought some things for myself."
She muttered to herself, her cheeks curving to a teasing smirked. Stretching her arms up, as Ender turned around and was about to go.. Until.. He noticed something.. Something that made him turned back..
Glaring straight on her eyes, glaring at her, lost at himself, she was surprised,
~ Is he a pervert or what?.
She wondered.. Until she remembered. Instinctively her powers activates as she peeked through his mind.. This time she can.. See through the surface..
A illustration of a lady wearing a red yukata with crimson eyes, her hands lifting the head of Ender who was kneel down towards her, she was just mumbling, keep mumbling..
"It's okay."
"It's okay."
"It's okay."
"Hold yourself."
"Hold yourself."
Suddenly water brushed down as it ended. Back to present, Lisa was fazed. She understand that he still hadn't completely gone from her trauma. Her eyes had act as a trigger for it to blown again. She looked towards him who was standing still, his palm over his eye before brushing off his forehead slightly.
"Don't.. Pry to my life.."
He said in a darkened tone, tone curled in dread. Glaring at her intensely as he turns around, before walking.. Lisa stand there, quite, still. At surface, she had her mused look, yet deep down she was guilty.. Maybe because she did it without his consent. While she didn't have any bad intentions or anything. In the end she was just curious, wanted to help. She sighed..
as the door aside her opened. With brute force..
BAM!
"We're here!."
It was Ruis with Zack, weridly energetic than usual. Zack waved his hand over her, which she responded with a wave; warm smile.
"Dude. I have no intentions of sleeping today. What should we do?."
Ruis asked, his eyes were really on a mood today.
"Walk around the whole mansion."
Zack replied with teasing smirked as Ruis tightly wrapped him around his arm, scrubbing his hair with a fist while Zack was trying his best to ran away.
Suddenly a small space aside them shifted, twisting its shape as it shifted to a portal. Two people came out of it, everyone attention was already drawned towards them.
"Is this a flex?."
Lisa asked with her usual smirked. The portal disappeared behind them as one of them stated.
"Just saw a banter here, so decided to shun from the scene. Anyways.. I'm going to hit the sack, do whatever you want.."
It was Misha with her usual polite tone. Not looking at anyone as her glaze was facing down earth, she scratches her forehead before getting along alone, Ruis and Zack noticed something on her collar, Ruis decided to stay silent but Zack exclaimed.
"Misha!. Is that blood!?. Over your neck!."
His words made her froze, stunned, not even flinching any movement. Pale.. As Zack started strolling towards her, Sara try to stop him by mumbling something, but words couldn't came out from her mouth. He stand aside her, place his palm over her shoulder.
He can feel the uneasiness over her entire body. Weridly, something was off.. No signs of Heartbeat.. No signs of Life..
His glaze went over the blood stains on her neck, shrouded by her thick, dark brown hairs.
"What's wrong?."
He asked with a gentle expression. In back, Lisa was still unaware of the situation, she whispers to Ruis's ear.
"What did I miss?."
As Ruis told him everything he had seen in whispers, Sara trying herself not to dragged in their chat, before they turned over her. Glaring at her, Ruis sighs but Lisa was still glaring furiously.
"What happened between you two?. Or was it just her?."
Ruis asked, Lisa lowered her glaze as she crossed her arms, leaning to wall. Sara gulped her throat.. On the other side, Misha was still silent, no flinching, seeing her Zack was puzzled.. Until..
"–I!."
She wanted to say something, her whole body was trembling, seeing her spoke drawned attention of others towards her, even Zack was eager to know what'll she say.
"I–!."
She exclaimed but words couldn't came out from her mouth. Zack patted her shoulder gently..
"If you don't want to say, don't say it."
He said with a warm smile, hearing this, a weird feeling emerged in her, now she wanted to tell them. As she makes a word.
"I– I wanted to t –"
Suddenly they heard footsteps approaching from the door aside the empty counter.
THUD!
THUD!
Steady yet heavy, someone opens the door.
CREAK!
A figure of a tall man wearing a white t-shirt with grey trousers entered the room. One of his hand occupied with a packet of apple juice. He was slurping it quite vigorously, looking at them with blank expression.
Seeing Zack closer to Misha was normal but seeing her so nervous made him have thoughts.
"Hey!."
He yelled, straw still hanging over his lips. Zack baffled as he went towards him, whispering in his ear.
"It's not that.. Just we have a matter here."
Zack mumbled in his ear as he give him the packet of juice, who he drinks, of course removing the straw.. He asked, still puzzled.
"What matter?."
As Zack started telling him everything in detail of what he only saw in his ear, whom Ender listened very carefully like he was examining the scene here. In the end, he sighs..
CLAP!
CLAP!
He clapped his hands, drawing everyone's gaze. A smile appeared over his cheeks. He declared.
"It seems like we all don't have a mood to sleep tonight. Let's drunk together!."
"Seriously.."
Ruis muttered to himself, it was obvious for him that he was doing this to distract them. Lisa didn't mind much of this idea, just that of the drunk part.. Sara wasn't interested, Misha went aside those two and slam the door opened.
~ God damn neither of them work..
– Your dumb ass will never work..
As Ender sighs and extended his arm in mid air, waving it.. Suddenly the space shifted around all of them. Now they all were standing in a living room. More like, they all had been teleported by him here.
WHACK!
A punch in the face sent him flying collapsing with onto the wall. It was Sara who did it. Looking at him with annoyed glaze. Lisa put her palm over her fist, relaxing it down. Misha was standing still there, Ruis sat along with Zack in couch as Ender was unconscious resting on the floor.
The girls sat on another couch, as some winds began to revolve around Ender, lifting him up as he sat unconsciously at the corner of sofa with his fellows. No one spoke about it. The room was silent. Until a bag appeared over Sara's lap.
"Hey!. Wanna see what I have bought."
Instantly the energy of the room shifted, the girls take out their bags from nowhere before their chatter started. They started comparison between the things they had bought. Ruis sighs as he started looking at the surroundings while Zack was looking quite sleepy.
The room had a ceiling fan moving nonstop, a yellow carpet on the floor, it was quite old fashioned but cozy warm. As before them was a coffee table which was aside the girls couch. In sense, both longue were just beside each other with the coffee table amidst the carpet.
The room had many more things like book shelves with alive flower pots in it. Two big lamps as one was aside the girls couch, with other being at the corner. Overall, the room was perfect for relaxation and forgetting about the past. Quite really..
"Wow!. Amazing."
One of the them exclaimed, distracting Ruis who glance over what they're doing, to saw a brush and sponge levitating in the air by Misha and Lisa cheeks, scrubbing them with some blush, nevertheless he turned his glaze from them. Sighing..
Zack was quite sleepy at the other corner but then for a moment he opens his eyes, dizzy to saw the girls sitting on their couch, it was blurred and distorted, he couldn't see it properly as he scrubs his eyes and blink. As soon as he blinked, he was astonished.
Now they're wearing their causal home dress as if they always were, he turned on him that he was still wearing his suit as he turned around Ruis who was wearing t-shirt and trousers. Nevertheless, Zack scratches his hair as he pushed the coffee table with his leg, others were unfazed about it, as before he lays down on the floor, leaning his back onto the sofa. He closed his eyes. Again..
Finally Ender opened his eyes as he for few seconds was blank, not knowing of his surroundings, but gradually after scratching his messy hair and scrubbing his eyes. He became aware of the world. Ruis aside them with bored hanging face.
As Zack dozing off while sitting on floor, he felt down subconsciously. Before his head could touch the floor, a pillow magically appeared as he fell asleep on the carpet. It was Sara who had done it.. Maybe because for a moment, her glaze went over him..
Gradually Misha started disconnecting with them as she dozed off too. Sara and Lisa then go quite for a while, the whole room shut down. As Lisa gaze went over Zack. A smirked appeared over her cheeks. Zack was mumbling something in his nap.
"Aww!. Our bummy sleepyhead is off his work."
She stated, Sara giggled as the boys noticed a chance. Zack mumbled something.
"Nah.. The dragon is still thriving. We must charge!."
He extended his arm mid air before falling asleep like a mummy. He roll to other side.
"Hey Zack!. Come on!. Say to her that you're not a sleepyhead."
Ender replied. A small smirked over his cheeks. Pointing towards him who had rolled towards his side, Ruis sitting at center, observing the situation with a straight expression.
"What's with you?. Are you a sleepyhead?."
Ruis asked him with a straight face, whom Ender replied.
"No."
"Then are you a egghead?."
As soon as words came from Ruis's mouth, the girls burst into laughter for some seconds.
"Bwahahaha!."
Ender glared at him with a dead serious expression, while Ruis started whistling, looking everywhere beside him. As Ender sighs..
"Well.. At least we cracked. Not get cracked."
Ender shrugged, his humor was quite a level that Ruis eyes widened when he understand after few seconds, while Sara immediately understands it and choked, Lisa was baffled.
"What?."
She muttered to herself. It seems like Sara wasn't going to tell her what it meant. Suddenly Zack wakes up instantly. On his back. He wake up so fast, so instant that everyone was processing what had just happened.
"Bummers!."
He exclaimed, even Ender and Ruis were puzzled. As he gets up, stretches his arms as if he had taken a good nap, now looking at the room, Misha on her sleeping trail, Zack cross his arms, thinking.
"Should we play a game?."
He suggested everyone, as they looked at each other.
"Nah!. Why would we?. And you know what?. I'm already tired.."
Ender replied before he wakes up, yawning.
"You guys do anything here."
He said with a smile as he make his steps towards the door, as soon as he was about to a step.
BAM!
He got sent flying to the wall where book shelves were resting, some books fell on him as he felt down the floor. It was Sara who had done it again. Her fist still intact as she was quite.. Enraged.. More like pretend to be..
"You had invited us here, don't you?."
She said to the collapsed Ender on the floor who nods to her words like a puppet.
"Then you'll go with us."
He nods, still on floor, off balance.. She sighs, looking at Lisa who was checking her nails while Zack was standing beside her. Lisa had made a guess as she declared.
"We will play truth and dare."
She stated with a smile, Ruis rolls his eyes but no one seems to catch him. Zack got excited as he try to palm slap Sara which she did with him, gracefully. The room grew vibey, as Misha scrubs her eyes, removing the hair scattered over her forehead.
"Where am I?."
She murmured, still lost in herself, Ender was getting up from the floor, his jaw was hurting badly, not that much but still, enough. As he adjusted himself and sat on the couch like nothing happened. Nothing had happened. Ruis glared at him while he wasn't making a contact with him. Trying his best not to..
As Zack sat on his place, looking at both like as if something had happened between them. Baffled.. The girls discussing some important things regarding the game while Misha trying to get in between them.
