"Uhh, Coach? Could we have a bonfire tonight?" Zaire asked suddenly and all eyes turned to him.A bonfire?Quinnel with a satisfied smirk, leaned back as he continued eating the pasta in his mouth."A bonfire?" Navaeh asked and Quinnel immediately turned his head to her."A bonfire sounds nice! Let's do it." Jake agreed and Quinnel looked at him and smiled.His mind drifted to thier boys conversation some hours ago after he had dropped Navaeh at her floor.***He was going to his room when he paused upon remembering what caused his fight between Navaeh and himself.As much as he would not like to do it, he sighed and turned walking to where he recollected to be Jake's room.He stopped in front of it and glared at the number "66" that was engraved in black colour on the gold plated plate right on the door.He moved his hand up to press the doorbell when the door opened and his hand froze in air.Jake and Zaire were staring at him while he simply blinked at them."What are you doing her

"Hemple, put that stick under the pile! Not on stop! You're going to kill the whole fire before it even starts!" Coach yelled."I'm not going to kill the fire. See it's starting..." Zaire replied with a grin as he pushed the stick into the pile again."Oh it's dead." He mumbled. The stick he had pushed in had snuffed out the fire that was just starting."Oh my God! And you were the one that made the suggestion!" Quinnel replied rolling his eyes.They were trying to start the fire pit and Zaire was in no way skilled in doing it. He kept pushing the sticks, that the hotel had provided, in different directions that it snuffed out the fire the others were managing to start.The night was dark and a thick blanket of darkness had enveloped the sky only lit up by stars that looked tiny. The moon was peeking out behind a dark cloud so the ground wasn't that bright but fortunately, the hotel had given them a torch light as well."You know what? Zaire, just step back. I'm about to kill myself j

"It's one question per person! And you're not the next person." Navaeh said and the guy pouted."I guess so." He replied with a shrug."How do you relax and cool off?" I asked Quinnel before someone else could even say anything else."A chat with my favourite person in the world." He replied with a shrug and I grinned."Hn, who is that favorite person in the world?" Zaire asked with a smirk."My Mum," Quinnel replied not minding that he was asked a question."Aww.""That's dope.""Cute.""Gosh, I like him even more." "Thanks." Quinnel replied with a wink and the girls started arguing on who the wink was directed at."Okay, Zaire... The coordinator... What never fails to make you happy?" "Uh, my sister... Duh." Zaire replied with an eye roll and everyone chuckled."Jake, what is one fact about you that people would never have guessed?" Zaire asked and Jake tensed which no one realized.Everyone eyes was on him as he gulped harshly. His fingers became clammy and sweaty and his eyes da

"Tch... I thought we were playing a game of asking any questions you want. You don't have to necessarily answer the question, Connie," Amelia said with a shrug and Ashley scoffed at her "sympathy.""What exactly is her problem?" Ashley asked leaning to Navaeh who shook her head in return.She wasn't close to Amelia so she didn't know maybe she had mood swings or something is just wrong with her.She shrugged and continued the game which everyone also participated in.The game continued but someone's mind wasn't there anymore. In the middle of the row opposite Navaeh, a figure was looking at Navaeh's smiling face before the person released a discreet smirk.All that smile would vanish in a few days... When the person releases their hidden trump card... Ah, how her face would look and how much fun they would have watching!The dark figure snickered and looked away once Quinnel turned his head to the side where they were seated. When Quinnel had looked away, the person turned to him look

"What? You both look like you've just seen a ghost." He said pointing at each of their pale faces."What?" Navaeh croaked out before she froze and cleared her throat."I said, oh God! So stressful. Both schools are good, NYU and Stanford, so why fight over which one to go?" He replied lazily.Navaeh looked to Quinnel to see him not even paying them any attention."And oh yeah, I heard literally everything. And I would say, you should follow your dream, if you want to, that is." He replied with a shrug sitting up.His hand moved to the back to support his whole weight as he looked up at the sky."The night is beautiful tonight." He mumbled and Navaeh looked away from him and up at the sky."Yeah, it is." She replied."Do you know about the superstition that dead people become stars?" He inquired after a few minutes of uncomfortable silence."Yeah, I don't think it's true though." Navaeh replied with a shrug and Quinnel let out a small scoff. She turned her head to him to see he was loo

"You're back." Zaire said once he stepped out of the bathroom to see Quinnel with his face pressed to the bed."Hn." Came his muffled reply.Zaire shrugged and walked to their wardrobe pulling his nightwear out. He wore it and turned around to see Quinnel's face was still pressed to the bed.He was about to take a step forward when he heard his phone chime and then followed by Quinnel's as well. Then the whole room was filled with chimes before he could reach his phone.He took his iPhone off the night stand to see 50 notifications from Instagram. He raised a brow and opened it anyways. Then his mouth fell open at the post. "What I saw while returning to my room. Love..." He scrolled down immediately to check the 20 comments.'Woah! Is that Quinnel?''Oh shit! Caught unfresh!''We will talk about Quinnel later. That's room 53! Who knows what that means?''That's the girls floor!''Wait, who stays at room 53?''I'm at 52.' 'Navaeh and Ashley.''Woah! This is hot news!''So what was h

Navaeh stared at the twins for a few minutes before she let out a nervous chuckle."What do you guys mean? There's nothing going on. Right, Quin?" She questioned nudging the latter with her elbow."We can literally see you nudging him to go along, Neve." Zaire said rolling his eyes.Navaeh looked up at Quinnel's indifferent face and she frowned. Oh, he wasn't going to help her out? Nice one, Quinnel."Nothing is going on. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to sleep." She said with a grim smile and started walking to the room only to be pulled back by Ashley."Not so fast, missy.""You're obviously hiding something! Geez, what the hell exactly is the so called secret that you're both hiding from us?""And it can't be that you're dating, cause if you were, Quinnel wouldn't waste one second in plastering it on his forehead. Hell, he can even print it on a t-shirt and wear it all around." Zaire added crossing his arm."Hey!" Quinnel protested his face pink."Don't even try. You know it's t

Connie froze suddenly her hand falling to her side as she turned her head so she was looking upside down.She saw Ashley's face and she gasped. She immediately pushed herself up and tried to arrange her uniform."It's a misunderstanding. It isn't what it looks like." She rushed out all while trying to button up her shirt."It's not what it looks like?" Ashley repeated blinking away the tears that was trying to reach her eyes.Connie nodded her head rapidly."So tell me, Cornelia... What does it look it like then? You're practically just arranging your freaking shirt!" Connie opened her mouth and then closed it a few times before she looked to the ground suddenly. She had nothing to say. It was pretty obvious what was going on."Cause to me, it's pretty much obvious what's going on here. And you can't say it's not, cause my glasses is on." Ashley spat.The girl whose head was bowed looked up from the floor before she shook her head and her hand having found something to say."He's jus
