Counting Shooting Stars (Meteor Rain # 2)

~The Plan~

Xylia's P.O.V.

The moment I woke up I knew someone was already awake, my dog Lily was already licking my face to wake me up in the morning. She's only a one year old Pomeranian puppy that really melts my heart no matter how hard I stare at her, it's almost as if she became the love of my life... well of course when I still haven't met my hopefully good future husband.

I went to the bathroom to take a bath and then dressed in a plain lilac laced blouse matched with short denim shorts, we don't have classes today anyway plus I wouldn't leave the house knowing that all of them will come here soon. A soft noise at the kitchen was heard since the plates were quite noisy and I figured out that my guest is also awake now.

"Good morning Lucille, how was your sleep?" Lucille beamed at me the moment she saw me walking down the stairs, Lily was in my arms as she kept on wagging her tail because a very special visitor is now awake.

"It was nice, good morning Xylia, your house is really nice"

I offered Lucille to spend the night with me since I felt so lonely, aside from that it'll really be hassle for her to come back amd forth from her house, her work place and to my house since they are all almost 3 hundred meters away. Plus even if she and Caesar has a thing going on I will still try my best to protect this woman from falling for this playboy, we never know if he really did stop his playboy antiques or is just fooling us all.

I sat on my usual seat at the dining table and put Lily down, she went to eat on her own bowl and stopped gaining our attention for a while. Ms. Lim and Ms. Ti placed our breakfast before us and as we were about to start eating a booming loud megaphone entered my once peaceful and quiet house.

"Hello everyone!"

"Seems like your house became our secret meeting place nowadays" Caesar commented after slapping Connor's head with the loud noise he made, Lily softly growled at him before finally lying down the floor and watching us.

"If you want both of you can move in as well, but no strange noises inside my house"

I narrowed my eyes at them, hinting about sex, because for one, I have no idea if Caesar and Lucille had already been that intimate... well the blush on Lucille's cheeks means they haven't so that leaves us with the man... who had made me feel quite awkward these past few days...

It all started with the day Darren and Scarlet flew to London, I remember we came to my house and had a small drink when all of a sudden I realized that that's was already dreaming... and the dream was something very impossible to happen...

In my dream I was actually talking to Connor, it wasn't us bickering but it was s having a heart to heart talk regarding my 'like' feeling to Dylan. I am sure I wasn't in love with Dylan because I haven't even known him for long plus I don't really feel like I will fall for Dylan. Sure I like him because he's attractive, everyone finds him attractive even the most stubborn person I know... but I think I couldn't bring myself to fall for Dylan Wang.

Then all of a sudden I realized that Connor had actually asked me if he wanted to be my husband, I remember asking him a question and then he answered me that he will prove to me that I can be happy... Then... The kiss happened...

It was something very unusual for me to dream about because I clearly wasn't even thinking about him the whole day for him to suddenly appear in my dreams. Second if I really did dream about him why does it have to be a kissing scene where it bothered my every glance at Connor whenever he just wanted to talk to me or to look at me? And then what's with the small vow of him going to make me happy?

I guess I was just really drunk that Connor came to my mind, that might be the reason why I suddenly had that weird dream... but the kiss...

Somehow it made me think that it was real... the kiss somehow made me feel... different...
