Forbidden Secret - Chapter Three Ceilo POV I managed to get ready just in time. That was because I was rushing. You ask why was I rushing? It was because I have been daydreaming of Tristan. I couldn't help it, the guy looked like as if he was a mirror copy of Adonis! But anyway, done daydreaming of his se-- Ugh! No! I stood in front of the mirror and quickly scanned myself. My hair was tied in a messy bun, since I cannot really be bothered to fix it up. Face, check. Just hope my eye bags aren't that visible. Favourite scarf on, check. I've packed all my stuff last night, so check. Well, I am ready to go. I grabbed my wooly jacket from the coat hanger and wore it, quickly putting the buttons properly. I immediately snatched my side bag from the couch and sprinted out the door then hurriedly locked it. I walked up till I reach the main road and waited at the bus stop. Thank God, this college isn't too far from my place. Two minutes walk, one bus ride and just five stops. Amazing! I smiled to myself. It's my first day at this college called Trinity College. I am really not looking forward to this. Adjusting isn't going to be that hard, since I do not need to try and fit in. I never befriended anyone at my past schools. I know how to deal with this stuff since I have been doing this for like two years now ever since that day...I suddenly felt nauseous and felt my head throbbing. Ugh! Come on, not today. I sat down at the bus stop bench and started to feel better. What are those thoughts? Every time those thoughts pass through my mind I start to feel ill. Few minutes later, the bus came. I took out my bus pass and got on. It only took about ten minutes until I reach the college's stop. Now here I am, sitting on a black leather couch at the reception since I was told to wait, along with the other new students, until the person who will give us the quick tour of the campus comes. The reception was modern in style making it pleasant and it was pretty quiet. At the right side, there's a double glass door which leads to the main building of the campus, in front of me is the reception desk and you can see the receptionists around her thirties busy typing, scanning though documents and answering phone calls. Wow, though job. Five minutes later, the person came and he looked about his in his mid-twenties. He had a clipboard with him and he started calling off our names. I was first one on the list and he ticked my name off, I didn't pay any attention to the other new students. Not too soon though, I heard him say "Tristan Garcia" and I immediately looked back to where the person is standing and then seconds later Adonis - I mean Tristan came running towards us. "That would be me Sir. Sorry, I'm late." he said smiling apologetically. Every girl in the group, including me, was paying attention to him as if he's an idol or something. Wow his charm. This guy would be a definite player. Then, I quickly shook my head and turn my attention to the guide. "You are right on time, Tristan. Ok, I would be your tour guide, My name is Louis, if you guys have got any questions at all feel free to ask me." Then he started walking towards the double glass doors and he started with the tour. He first showed us the library, infirmary, lunch hall and the dance studio as it was on the building we are in now. We went out through a wooden door and Louis showed us the rest of the main facilities. We finished with the tour after half an hour. Wow that was long. This campus is seriously huge. He gave us our timetable. We were told to stay in the library until the next lesson starts. I went to sit at the corner of the library reading a book. "Why the corner?" I looked up at his smiling face. Oh Tristan... "Uhh, oh hi. Nothing, I just like being here. Do you need anything?" I asked quite nervous. No idea why. "Nothing really, mind if I sit with you? I mean you're the only one I partially know. So, maybe we can get to know each other?" he asked friendly. I don't know what to say. What does this guy want from me? Ugh. "Uhhh, Sure." I said. "So, what subjects have you got?" he asked me. "Uhh, I took Art, DT and Chemistry, how about you?" not that I don't like talking with Tristan, I am just really not good at talking with people. "Wow, we got the same! Huh, we have same interest. Looks like we are going to be together most of the time." he said happily. What?! I said to myself. What did he mean together most of the time? I don't like company, Ugh. "Tristan, sorry to burst your bubble, but I am not exactly the type of person who likes hanging out with people. Sorry," I said apologetically. The bell went. Yay, save by the bell. I quickly stood up and headed towards the DT department. Tristan POV Looks like it is going to take some time to actually get close to Ceilo. Well, that doesn't matter; I know I will accomplish this mission. I never back down. It seems the effect of my ability had started to wear off. I guess, I shouldn't be surprised. As soon as she walked off, I quickly trailed behind her. It's not stalking, I have the same lesson as her, so. I am only interested with DT, but Art and Chemistry isn't my type. But like Axel said, I have to make sure I have the same classes as her. So, that I can look after her more easily. Yes, I have to protect her. It's part of my job. When I reached the DT department, I walked straight to the room I am designated to, room DT - 1.1. Our professor was waiting until all his students settled down to their sits. Ceilo was sitting at the far left of the room. I decided to sit at the back. Then our professor started his lesson about softwares used in designing 3D stuff. I didn't really want to listen since I can easily learn this off later. So, I stared at Ceilo throughout the lesson wondering when will she regain her memory. Everyone is waiting for her. Five hours later... Finally! I can get out of this place. The day is so boring. Luckily, today was peaceful. Glad there was no attack while Ceilo's memories are still out. I was walking down the corridor, while following Ceilo of course and hopefully she hasn't noticed, a brunette girl came up to me while batting her eyelashes at me. Oh no, not this thing again. I smiled politely. "Hi, may I help you?" I asked. "Hi, my name is Charmaine. Wanna hang out?" she asked then winked. Slut. I said to myself. "Sorry, not interested." I said and then walked off. I heard her groan loudly and her friends were trying to comfort her. Annoying. I quickly looked for Ceilo which I cannot find anywhere. Well, crap. I only turned my back for a little bit then she disappears! I quickly run off out of the campus to the main road. There at the bus stop I saw her. Thank God. I walked towards the bus stop and sat at the end of the bench. She looked at me and was startled. I smiled at her and said "I am not stalking you. I live at the same area as you remember?" I saw her nod. It didn't take long to wait for the bus. I let her go in first. Few minutes later, we got off our stop and she started walking without even waiting for me! But I caught up. "Hey, are you mad at me?!" I asked. "No." she said. We reached our street and she went quickly to her house and I did the same. Oh man, this is harder than I thought. I dialled Axel. He picked up instantly. "Axel, she doesn't want anyone being close to her. What do I do now?" I asked frustrated, "Well, she's only known you few hours. Obviously she won't. Calm down. You are so impatient." he said and I nodded. It was silent for a few minute then Axel spoke quietly, "But you better hurry up. Gio just contacted me and he said they're gathering soon." "I understand..." is all I said. Then, I hung up. I just hope there will be no bloodshed. But that is impossible... Ceilo...come back please.
