Orion's smile completely faded and it was April's turn to smile.

"Look at your face," she laughed hard and Iver joined in.

"I'm going to kill you if you say that one more time," Orion said with a serious face.

"I didn't say anything when you two were laughing at me," April rolled her eyes.

"Why so serious? It's just a joke, brother," Iver chuckled.

"That's an expensive joke," Orion said, going back to eat food.

"Upset already? Now, you are the one behaving like a pregnant woman," Iver said and together with April, they laughed at Orion.

"It's a crime for pregnant women to express their emotions now? How about you get pregnant and see if it's easy?" Mrs Caddel said.

"Mom, are you pregnant?" Iver asked jokingly.

Orion took a prawn from his plate and threw it at Iver but he dodged it and the prawn landed perfectly inside Mr Caddel's glass of water. Their eyes widened and the whole table became silent.

"Sorry, Dad," Iver and Orion said at the same time.

Mr Caddel dipped his fork into the

    "April!" Iver yelled.She didn't fall however, Orion was there to catch her. April slowly opened her eyes that has been closed shut in fear. Orion's hand was stil around her waist, holding her up. He slowly withdrew while April balanced herself."Thanks," she murmured."I really didn't foresee that. Sorry, April," Iver apologized.Orion snatched the paper from Iver and looked at it. Then, his head raised towards both of them."Childish," he said and walked down the stairs with the paper in his hands.April looked towards Iver and he shrugged."He just stole my sketch!" April whisper-yelled."Then go get it. It's yours, not his," Iver said with arched brows.April hurried down the stairs and Iver followed. He really doesn't want any other person seeing that drawing and he knew if he left it with April, she will continue teasing him with it.However, he knows it's easier for April to get it from Orion than for him to get it, that's why he had persuaded April to go get it. It's easier fo

    They've gotten situated and everything still seemed like a dream to April. While their parents occupied the new building, April and Iver's room are in the main building. It was on the second floor as well but totally away from the area she had explored the last time she was there.The part she saw was where Orion's room is but there is another way that led to another set of rooms and that was where she and Iver's room were. April was quite fascinated by the layout of her room, everything was to her preference and she knew it was all arranged by Orion. The room is large and all furniture are completely to her taste. The sight of her comfortable and large bed makes her excited. From the ceiling to the walls to the flooring, she really loved everything.She decided that even though she is still upset with him, she would be appreciative and so she went to his home office where she was told he was. When she got there and was about to knock, however, she heard her name and paused by the

    "Something for something," Orion translated.And just like last time when she had kissed him, Orion wasn't even surprised or shocked by her words like she had expected. He was very calm while she on the other hand, was getting anxious, her confidence blowing away little by little."You always look at me as if you are memorizing me," Orion said."Maybe I am," April said quietly.His palm held the right side of her face and she swallowed nervously when his face started moving closer to hers slowly. April closed her eyes, expecting to feel his lips on hers but she felt it somewhere else instead.He kissed her forehead and drew back to face her. April opened her eyes, still expecting something, anything."Do we have a deal now?" Orion asked."No, you cheated," April said with dissatisfaction."I didn't, you didn't specify," Orion said."You know what you did wasn't what I wanted," "What could you possibly want, April? Perhaps, a kiss on the lips? You want your brother to kiss you on the

    April finally resumes school and contrary to what her family had thought, she was coping well. Her initial disinterest had made them think that she won't be able to adapt assuming she won't find it fun but they were totally wrong.April seemed determined on making the most out of it and she's making it enjoyable for herself even when it seems hard. Orion was proud of her and so was Blue and her family.She paints and sketches a more frequently and had improved a whole lot. She even started uploading pictures of her work on her social media handles and often got positive comments.She has a small circle of friends now even though she tried a lot to just be by herself, judging by the fact that during high school, all the so-called friends she had thought she had, betrayed her, except for Blue.Their names are Vaughn and Rita and they are a couple. They went to the same high school and have been friends for years before they started dating. April met them on her first week of school and

    "What are you doing?" Orion breathed out, internally fighting hard to hold on to his control."Warming you up," she replied, her voice dropping several octaves.Orion lowered his head, his stubble brushing the side of April's face as he sniffed her in. April let out an unstable exhale, her hands tightening around him as if they could get any more closer."You always smell like trouble," Orion whispered in her ear.The warmth from his mouth entering through her ear made her lightheaded and her breathing picked up, the rising goosebumps on her body long eliminated as they were now replaced by a flickering spark, which has not yet developed a flame."And right now, you are smelling like heartbreak and responsibility coupled together," April whispered into his chest and this time he was the one who felt a flicker of spark from the warmth that escaped her mouth right against his body.That seems to bring Orion back to reality and he got a hold of his control once more.
