" And why are you in such a good mood " Dr Michelle asked Cyrus as they sat at the dinner table,since he had been smiling the whole time ever since he got home.
" You won't believe who I met today ".. Cyrus said with a huge smile on his face .
"We are adults Cyrus we can't make us play the guessing game ". Aven sounding pissed off.
" Fine .... I met the girl who saved us the first time we got here on earth ".. Cyrus said sounding ecstatic. While Aven's eyes widened .
"Where?". Aven asked .
" At university,me and her happen to be doing almost the same course , me and her are now friends,and she's pretty ". Cyrus said feeling proud.
" I hope you thanked her, you owe her a lot ". Professor Dean said looking at Cyrus.
" I did dad , I'll repay her kindness , she's really friendly I'll be her personal bodyguard,since me and her are now friends ". Cyrus said rubbing it on Aven's face.
" I'm still going to meet her one day you know "...Aven said while giving Cyrus a bored look." Infact I can....
" Wait ... Cyrus immediately cut off Aven as his phone pinged ..it was a text from Peach ... " Its her " . Cyrus said with a wide smile " mom I have to attend to this". He said as he took his plate while focusing on his phone as headed to his room .
" Mom his talking his food to his room..." . Aven said looking sour .
" Baby just let him be ,his excited to have a friend,you have plenty ". Dr Michelle intoned as she stood up to clear the table ,leaving Aven glancing at professor Dean,who just shrugged his shoulders.

Aven was always the mischievous brother, although his always overprotective of Cyrus ,but wouldn't show it. He was in the campus cafe when he saw ,Cyrus laughing so hard with a beautiful breathtaking girl .
"Aven that's your brother Cyrus, you didn't tell us his now studying here". Soren Aven's best friend,one look at him you might think his a sweet boy but behind the scenes,his at troublesome as they come .
"Yeah . I think I forgot , let's go see who his talking to"....
As Soren and Aven approached Cyrus , Aven's emerald eyes narrowed as he observed Peach. She was radiant, her laughter like sunlight filtering through leaves,she was just perfect.
When they got to where Cyrus was Aven enudged Cyrus ,not even minding his manners."Who's she?" he whispered."Friend or foe?". You wouldn't miss the curiosity in his voice.
Cyrus almost burst,but quickly held it in ,as he knew how Aven was. "This is Peach ,she my friend"he said. "Umm Peach meet my brother, Aven , you saved him too ,his a bit mischievous,but don't worry—he won't bite." Cyrus said which made him regret as he got a slap at the back of his head .
Aven extended his hand -metaphorically, of course."Hi".he said. "Thanks for saving us".Cyrus's a bit clumsy and tends to talk about unnecessary things ,but he's family."Aven said trying not to be awkward.
Peach chuckled. "Nice to meet you, Aven ,and you don't have to thank me for saving you guys .And yes, your coffee brewing skills are legendary." Peach added.
"Oh I see ,someone has been spreading personal things about me " ...Aven said looking at Cyrus.
" Ahem .. Soren said clearing his throat trying to get their attention. "And I'm Soren Aven's best friend"...
Peach laughed a little as she extended her hand "nice to meet you Soren "...
"You've met Peach ,please excuse us ...me and my friend wanna catch up ". Cyrus said quickly dismissing Aven and Soren .
"Why should we go ,there ain't no lessons at this time,so we will just join you guys ... Me and Soren don't mind , Peach do you?".....Aven asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Ummm ....." Peach stammered as she looked at Cyrus , who just signalled for her to say yes ..." Yes I do mind . Me and Cyrus wanna catch up"... She said lying in-between her teeth.
"Ohh ...okay , I'll leave you guys to it". Aven intoned sounding dissapointed. " I'll get you ..." . He mouthed looking at Cyrus ...

After school Cyrus noticed that Aven had left without him ,and their father was not around the campus . Leaving him with no option but to take a bus home. But luckily a car stopped right next to him ..
"Saving you again ? ...Peach asked in a sarcastic tone ..
"Yes . My brother left me" . Cyrus said looking a bit pitiful.
" Hop in ,we will drop you at home ". Peach's mother said , giving a warm smile to Cyrus.
" Thank you ".he said while getting in .

Aven carefully watched as Cyrus got dropped off by a huge expensive car. Getting the shock of his life when he realized Peach was inside the car gently getting out of the car to hug Cyrus while an adult watched them.
Making Aven lose his cool . He was about to walk out the door when he quickly pulled himself together. Asking himself why his so worked up.... He had just met Peach his not supposed to act like a love sick puppy.
Wait..... does this mean he has developed a crush on Peach in just a few minutes of meeting her....
