Right as class was about to begin, she couldn't shake off the feeling of uneasiness lingering in her, as she dreaded the day ahead. The day she stretched out before her, seemed endless, filled with lectures that seemed to bear Starfania's mind. With a pondering sigh, she wondered if anything entertaining could happen. The lecture centered around the history of the Fire Nation. Yet, a certain golden lock caught her attention as she slowly turned her head. To spot Daniel Gold he was alluding to her, his popularity reigning supreme. He stood out as one of the most sought-after guys in their school, his presence commanding attention. With his golden hair and piercing blue eyes, he possessed a magnetic charm. Wearing his signature attire- a striking combination of red and black sweater layered over a pristine white T-shirt, paired with his blue jeans and sleek black boots. Beyond his captivating appearance, Daniel's role as the team captain only added to that appeal.
Becka also happens to be one of the many girls who find themselves under Daniel's captivating spells. She would openly admire him and would even tell others that they were a romantic couple. Rumors of their supposed relationship quickly spread, just only fueled her fantasy. However, Daniel dismissed these speculations, maintaining that they were simply friends. Despite her relentless infatuation, he did not reciprocate her feelings. Instead, he remained focused on his academics and athletic pursuits. Even with Becka constantly flirting he still maintained a respected distance.Starfania felt as though Daniel existed in a realm far beyond her reach, reminding her of a radiant star in the night- captivating from afar, yet always out of grasp. She had come to terms with this reality long ago, knowing well their path would never cross. Lost in these thoughts she failed to notice the sound of her name echoing through the classroom: " Starfania! "Her cheeks flushed from embarrassment as Professor Shadow's firm voice filled the room, commenting on her lack of participation. As she glanced up at him in silence, she couldn't help but feel self-conscious, especially with Daniel, she already felt like an outcast and buried herself into a deeper hole. Then she thought, "Welp there goes any chance of him noticing me romantically. "And it only seemed to worsen for our poor little Starry as he declared the consequence of her action. She must complete chapters ten through twenty to prevent herself from getting into more trouble.With a heavy heart, Starfania silently nodded, unable to speak her mind so she simply decided to deal with the consequences. Embarrassment surged through her, staining her cheeks in a fiery blush. To add to the insult, Becka and her gang started to mock Starfania, their laughter pierced the air like a shard of glass. Becka's taunts only plagued her mind long after they were spoken. The teacher reprimanded, " That will be enough, Miss Scalia, " this had managed to calm them momentarily. Even though they quieted down their laughter still lingered in the air reminding her of the scenario that played out not too long. Despite the chaos, Professor Shadow persisted in continuing the lesson.As Starfania glanced around the classroom, her curiosity was piqued, and her eyes landed on Aeron, whose intense gaze slightly portrayed a conversation after class. With a subtle nod, she agreed to speak with him after class. However, before she could fully advert her attention, her eyes inadvertently met another pair of captivating eyes. Daniel's mesmerizing stare made this moment magical his caring gaze and tender smile enveloped her, causing a whirlwind of emotion inside her. Her heart danced widely, checked and flushed in response. She was caught off guard and had to put her eyes away from him, but the lingering warmth still reminded her that she had fallen for Daniel's charms. Unbeknownst to her, as she grappled with her feelings for Daniel, Aeron's gaze shifted in their direction, sensing the unspoken connection between them.
