Chapter 48 - (Part 4)

Alan eyeing him surprised gazed at him with his expression blackened. "There it is… that kind Kazuna." Senri sighed relieved. Alan leaving Kazuna's clothes walked towards Senri hugging him. "Whoops…" Senri called patting his back. "I hate him. I don't know this person anymore…" Alan moaned referring to Kazuna.

"Haha… serves him right." Senri endorsed laughing. Kazuna shaking his head walked forward, "Hurry up, if you don't want to be left behind." Senri and Alan eyed him speechless.

"Don't worry Alan… he won't change." Senri assured, "That's just the way he is." Alan sighed deeply. Kazuna walking ahead rubbed his arms instantly twitching.

"That little…! It hurts like hell…" he grunted.

"Ah~ we're finally back!" exclaimed Azazel pushing the dorms door open. "I'm tired…" Ezekiel yawned, sitting before the doorsteps untying his shoelaces. "I really want to take a bath." Helios said heading inside. Poseidon smiled, "Drink a glass of water first." He told.

"That was one hell of a practice! We are surely going to Ace it tomorrow!!" cheered Heber stretching his arms. Seraph gazing at Cassiel nodded.

"Since, we are so satisfied. We will surely be able to get a good rest tonight for a big victory tomorrow. Right Adam?" he asked Adam who was nowhere to be found.

'Hun? Where is…" Seraph asked however a playful shriek had already given an answer. 'Xavi! Xavi!" Adam called rushing towards Xavier who was grabbing his slippers, he suddenly jumped over his back squeezing him.

"Ah!" Xavier uttered surprised, soon balancing himself, not to let Adam fall. Ryan and Feng eyed him astonished. "What is he up to now?" they asked speechless. "What's the matter?" Xavier asked Adam.

"Hey, hey! Did you know you were smiling in your sleep? Tell me! Tell me! What were you dreaming about? Was it Hawaii? Or a big watermelon or a giant parfait or were you riding a roller coaster?" Adam asked with stars in his eyes. Upon his words Xavier eyed him blank.

"Hun?" asked Seraph, Cassiel, Feng and Ryan stunned. "Is he seriously still stuck up on that?!" the four of them asked together. "Really… that boy." sighed Seraph. "Don't worry. Xavier will handle it." Poseidon assured. "Tell me! Tell me!!" Adam urged curiously.

Smiling over his innocence Xavier patted his head. "What in the world is going on? Creating a ruckus the moment we arrive. And, why are you all crowding the doorstep? Get going in!!" Kenzo angered slightly agitated moving Azazel aside. Gabriel sighing went inside his room not sparing a glance.

"A bunch of kids…" he whispered. Feng hearing his words whispered in disbelief, "You're one too…" Gabriel glanced back him annoyed. "Shut up!" he growled.

"Hm… let me see. I saw that I was riding a big dolphin in between a sea. I was enjoying myself quite a lot. Maybe that's why I smiled." Told Xavier making things up. Hearing him the middle schoolers excluding Adam stood speechless staring at him as white as paper. "What?" they asked together.

"What the heck of a lie is that?" Azazel said a whisper. "Oh my god!! Is that so?? HAHA! I knew it you saw something good and you even saw a dolphin!! Tell me! Tell me! What else did you see? Was I there as well? Was Ryan there as well?" Adam asked twice more joyful and curious than before.

"See Seraph! I told you he did see a dolphin in his dream!!" he continued to cheer beside him.

Seraph with embarrassment covering his head replied, "Yeah…" 'Unbelievable… I can't believe vice-captain said something so… embarrassing." said Feng shocked while Ryan nodded.

Seraph sighed, "I will apologize to Xavier for pushing himself so far." "No need." Xavier smiled. "Come on, tell me some more." Asked Adam. "Alright… I will. Let's go inside first." Xavier replied. "Hm! Come on Ryan!!" Adam pulled Ryan too.

"Why am I being pulled in out of nowhere?" Ryan asked while being dragged by Adam inside. Azazel, Heber and Poseidon too followed behind with Seraph and Cassiel. "Cassiel, will you teach me some mathematics before we sleep?" asked Heber.

Cassiel nodded, "you should join in as well, Azazel.' Azazel rolling his eyes replied. "Why do you keep asking me to come over? I don't want to." He replied heading towards the restroom. Heber sighed as Ezekiel stood beside him. "I'm sure he will fail the exams this time as well…"

"I think… I will have to prepare a perfect plan for him." Cassiel replied mischievously. Ezekiel and Heber upon his sight gulped. "Farewell Azazel!!" the two of them thought together. Kenzo sighed, "Poseidon, my boy. Are you free?"

Poseidon looking at him replied, "Yeah. What is it Kenzo?" "If you aren't tired, how about you brew us some hot chocolate. This king is carving for it." Kenzo asked. Poseidon eyeing Helios smiled. "Hm… it's been days. Since, today is a little bit chilly. I'll make it." he replied.

"Good." Kenzo replied. Suddenly his gaze shifted towards the door which was still open. "Hun? Why aren't they coming inside?" he asked. Helios and Seraph too looked at the high schoolers who stood outside the dorms. "No wonder, it felt so quiet." Kenzo realized.

"Yeah… others are already asleep. And, they haven't come in. No wonder it felt a little off." Replied Helios. "Hey, aren't you coming in?" Ryan asked the middleschoolers at the door. Aaron who stood closest turned around, "Ah… we are waiting for Kazuna and the other two. You can close the door if you want to. We'll be back later." Kenzo and Xavier eyed them wondering.

"Sheesh, they might act like total hooligans but, they still care about each other." said Ezekiel while. "Yes… they are just like us." Xavier replied.

Standing up he went to Poseidon, 'Should I help you?" "Ah. If it's fine with you since, you were caught up with Adam." Replied Poseidon. Xavier pointing his finger towards Adam smiled. To think that, Xavier had already made him involved into a dessert magazine as he talked about it with Ryan and Seraph. "Seriously…?" Poseidon asked surprised.

"Can't expect anything less from you." he commented. "

Helios come with me. I don't know that hot water tap. I might freeze to death if I shower inside cold water another time." Kenzo ordered him.

Helios eyed him annoyed leaving, "Don't go on ordering me around. You should better learn to open it yourself." Poseidon and Xavier smiled at each other.

The highschoolers waiting outside sighed. "They sure are taking their sweet time hun…" said Orion, standing with his back on the tree. "Don't stand so close to the tree at night. Moreover, your hairs are open as well!" called Nagi pulling him away from it.

"What the?! Why the hell do you always stop me from doing everything? Geez, what's wrong about standing under a tree at night and what problem do you have with my hairs now?" Orion asked annoyed.

Ren shaking his head spoke up, "You should really increase your general knowledge, Orion." Orion eyed him puzzled. "Don't stand near tress at night since, they emit carbon dioxide which is bad for health and sometimes even fatal if taken in plenty and tie your hairs and stay away from the tree because at night tiny insects like ants and beetles climb over them. You don't want them to climb over your hairs or your body right?" explained Noah sighing.

"Really now Orion, don't make Nagi worried about you over every little thing." said Elias.

"And, don't snap on him every time either." added Isa.

Orion blinking his eyes, eyed Nagi who evaded his gaze. "Alright…" he whispered back. Walking away he stood leaning against Zach who eyed him carelessly.

"Sorry big guy… let me lean against you." Orion asked politely. Zach response less agreed. "When will they come~" cried Aigou as Noah patted his head. "Look! There they are." Aaron pointed at three silhouette coming closer towards them.

"Really… made us, wait long enough." said Isa.
