Aurora's POV
It was the last class that I have to go through before the day ends, there was a seat at the very corner of the room and I took it for myself. The only person who has the same class as me right now is Archer.

The room has all the lights open and the sun is beginning to set from the windows, everybody was dead tired from today. I would expect myself be looking like the walking dead if I have to go straight to the studio after classes, Archer was nowhere to be found until class starts because he came barging into the room and apologized because he went to the clinic.

Coincidentally the open seat is next to mine so he took it and now we are seated side by side for this class, I glanced at him using the corner of my eye and it seems like he has healed slowly from the breakup. His eyes are back to being bright again and he has a lot of energy even though the training today for the soccer team was very brutal

I shifted my attention back to class and focused on listening to the lecture, Archer tapped on my table and out a small piece of paper stating "Can I borrow your pen?" I nodded and let him borrow my pen

He gladly accepted it and went back to his study, after a few minutes he disturbed me again but this time he was asking if I have any candy. Archer mouthed to me "I'm bored and hungry" so he patted his stomach.

I shrugged at him and gave him a sheepish smile because I don't have candy, he made a pouty face and went back to listening to the lecture again. This went on until class ended, he kept bothering me that I know only a few of what the professor was teaching us.

It was so annoying that I shove him after class "Dude what is wrong with you!? I didn't even understand what Professor Blake was trying to lecture to us!"

Archer was only smiling "I was only trying to keep you awake you doofus, you look like you're gonna fall asleep any minute now" he pinched both of my cheeks that it hurts, I have never seen this side of Archer before. He would usually take studying so seriously that we don't even disturb each other during class. What is going on?

We walked out of school together and before we separate ways I hit him with my notebook "If I fail that class I'm going to blame it on you Redwood" I pointed my finger at him.

He rolled his eyes "Nice threat Wizard, see ya!" He waved goodbye to me before joining his buddies to go somewhere, the sun has already set and it was a bit dark outside because the street lamps that the university uses are not enough to cover the enormous campus area so I have to open my phone flashlight to go to the gate.

At a far distance, I could see Andrea walking beside Milly that has their phone flashlights open "Rora!" Milly said loudly and did that small run to me

We met up with Blaire and Skye at the computer laboratory due to Skye's assignment, coincidentally Milo was also there because he was in charge of locking the computer lab and leaving it in the teacher's faculty. I waited beside Milo while Blaire and Milly help Skye

Milo was focused on his phone with his brows furrowed "So your meeting with Max is tomorrow again right?"

I nodded "Yeah"

His brows are still furrowed ang he was glaring at his phone, I put my finger between his brows and he stopped being angry then he raised his head to look at me "Hm?"

"You look angry, did something happen?" I asked him worriedly because I fear he might redo his old habit of having no control again, the articles about his temper were scary because there was one guy who was almost beaten to death if no one intervened to stop Milo from hitting him. It was said that the man was offending Milo's family and I don't want to be mean but that guy deserved his beating

Milo's POV
A small chuckle erupted from my chest "Why? Are you scared I might do my old habits again?" I leaned close to her and a small blush formed on her cheeks

She was forcing herself to not be obvious that she was freaking out I was too close that it was cute, the moment she realized what I told her she looks at me with shock "Wait, how did you know I was thinking about that?"

"The moment you knew my identity, I would assume you have made a lot of research about me on the internet"

She cleared her throat "Not that many though" she mumbled to herself while looking out of the window, I looked down on my phone again because Devan message me that Patrick was sending kidnapping threats and it looks like he was not holding back because this time he was sending pictures of all the things he will use for the kidnapping

"Did he already get the news about Rora?" I thought to myself as I watch the three dots in the message from Devan move as he kept sending more

The last picture was taking too long to be sent to me so I closed my phone and put it in my pants, Skye was having a hard time with the specific code in her programming that she was this close to going into a fit of rage. Rora, Milly, and Andrea are doing their best to calm her down and help her finish it

Since it was taking too long I decided to help Skye and teach her how to deal with it, Skye squealed with happiness once she found out what was missing from her code it turns out she was missing a semicolon and a few numbers

I heard my phone ring from the notification and I opened the message, my eyes widened once I saw what was in the last picture that Patrick ent to us as a threat

It was a knife
