Upon listening to the teacher discuss, walk back and forth in the room, I drifted off to who knows where with my head above my chair's desk, in the middle of everyone but unlikely to be noticed for my serenity.

A thought kept dancing in my mind... Rather a dream that I travailed to decipher whether fiction or to be truth.

A thought where I felt something unreal to be facing me, hands reaching to each other, until everything became shattered into a thousand pieces, vanishing in the thin air.

My heart pounded in disbelief, hearing it pulse in my ears, tears in my eyes tried to cascade to my cheeks, a banging sound echoing around me.

*bang*

*bang*

*bang*

"Ms. Veneziano, do pay attention."

But that is what not a thought is.

A small smile then tugged my lips.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Oh, here's nice..." I thought to
Myself as I slightly crouched
My legs holding a camera with
My hands looking at the school
Building where I study, observing every detail and angle of the image at the screen.

I captured the view with a small smile and looked at the image checking if it's fine enough and to my surprise, my eyes widen seeing someone standing at the edge of the image, a little blurred at that part.

"How the heck did he got there?"
I muttered to myself and looked back at the faculty and searched for the man that stood at the photograph though saw no one. I looked at the image again seeing a guy with mid length blond hair that wore a white shirt and shorts and took a deep shaky breath out of fright.

I got home after school only to Be greeted by my mother that is On a day off from work in the Hospital. "Hi, Mom." I greeted and Stretched my arms exhaling air from my lungs, as if sighing loudly. "So how's school?" She asked and I gave her a usual expression.

"Same as always." I said and
My mother clasped her hands
Together knowing that I did
Survived it again. My mother probably thinks I always thinks that, 'Yosh! Education! And famiry first.' Probably when I'm active, but whatever.

I climbed up to the stairs and
Did works and stuff like a hardworking 'normal student' will.

On the following day, I saw
The guy that stood at the image
The previous day and I was
Surprised that he was following me but is not even speaking a Single word, his gaze following wherever I went.

"Sorry for capturing you yesterday without your permission." I said apologetically, turning around to face him and he gave me a
Toothy grin,nodding in approval
To my apology, a fang visible
At the edge of his lips.

A student looked at me weirdly and asked me, apparently confused. "Uh miss... Who are you talking to?" She asked and I gave her a confused
Expression, slightly furrowing my eyebrows. "Him." I said pointing at the blond that stood at my side, naturally.

The student gave me a face
Looking at my side before speaking. "Er... Who are you pointing at? I'm pretty sure not her." She said and looked at the student that conversed with another student, standing beside the blond.

I just shrugged and waved goodbye to the student awkwardly, walking through my classroom. The blond seemingly to be out of sight.

After class I went at the
School garden to eat there like
I always did to have a little rest and some fresh air though it doesn't really mean I don't have any friends to accompany me not to mention nor being a loner, just being a little unsociable, I guess..?

"What are you eating?" The blond asked as he sat beside me.
I glanced at him, trying to study his features and then swallowed my food. "Jelly. My sister made it for me." I said and took another spoonful of it.

"You like?" I said and raised
My spoon to him and he widen His eyes and shook his head. "Fine" I said and continued on Eating.

I thought about still not knowing a single detail about him at all and stretched out my hand to him, offering a hand shake. He stuck out his as well; "I am—" I suddenly piped down when my hand suddenly slipped passed his, that my breathing got caught up in my throat, but whilst that;

I heard a rustle in the bushes
And disregarded the sudden shock cocking my head to the direction of the noise. My attention was then paid towards that direction until somebody popped out from there.

"Hey, Issy. You eating alone there
Again?" He asked and dusted himself. Of course how can I forget Arthur. My senior.

I just nodded and the blond has
A disbelieved expression written
On his face, even if the whole
Time he didn't know me, nor
Did I.

"Ya like to eat with me?" He
Asked cheerily like a good father
To me, giving a little smile. "Why?" I asked and he gave a grin wrapping an arm around my shoulder giving me a side hug.

"For you not to be alone! I'm your bro anyway, and to ensure your safety." He said and I sighed before nodding, rolling my eyes mentally. "Okay, I'll agree with my fearless sempai." I said and stood up and remembered a certain blond.

I looked beside me only to see
Him sitting beside my lunch box.
"Can he come?" I asked Arthur looking at the blond and He looked at me in confusion before laughing, hideously at most.

"Don't be silly! Let's go." He said
And took my lunch box, pulling
Me inside the cafeteria, leaving
Me clueless as to why he didn't took
Notice? Of he blond.

As time flowed by I haven't had the chance to ask who he was for I always missed the opportunity to do so. Neither did we know each other's name.

It confuses me as well that he doesn't get caught or something for being here? I mean he doesn't look like a freshman or something and he seemed to just roam around and follow me?

I tried to tell others about him but none of them responded the way I would find fine and enough, it's like they can't see him or something.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"It's so confusing... Why do people always say 'who' or
Something every time I talk about you?" I asked the blond
And he shrugged his shoulders
Not knowing what to answer.

Questions then bombarded every time I think of him. Why was he with me? Is there something he needed? Is there something with him that others cannot see? Am I the only one able to interact with him?

My head ached from the questions that almost disturbed me even in my sleep. Trying to clear my mind for a little, I just tolerated neither of my questions and interacted with him.

I was a little hurt but ignored it when they said I was talking to nobody? When he's like, always beside me.

They said I was crazy but I chose not to believe it, they just don't understand me, from the fact they think I'm cold and lonely....

I didn't thought about having myself talking to nobody, I am aware. I am talking to a presence though I'm confused on what's with the appearance.

I tried to to prove it to others that there he was, standing right beside me. To say hi to him, to meet him, to talk to him but only got them to repel from me.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I found myself squatted on my chair releasing an exhausted sigh, staring outside the door to find him standing right there, as if watching me intently.

Something at the back of my head told me to ignore him and as that so, I tried to bring myself to do so. Maybe he was just some illusion of mine but I can't get myself to believe that when I can see him... To see is to believe, wasn't it?

As the class went by, I on the other hand, glanced at him every almost minute checking if he's still there, losing my focus on the class.

"Ms. Veneziano, is there something so entertaining on the doorway?" My stern teacher asked with a small frown and I 'Retorted' with a fake smile, feeling irritated about the professor. "Oh, no sir. I was just
Checking if there'd be a horse
That will be pulling you outside
The halls by a greatly pathetic
Prank." I said, cursing at my
Mind as I smiled meekly but
Falsely, making the students at
The room laugh.

He gave me a nod before going
Back on discussing nothings whilst I cheered mentally to myself like a lunatic.

After school I saw the blond
Again that seemed nothing to other's sight. I peeked behind my
Back quickly only to see him
Looking at me, following me as
I walked down the streets.

Should I get scared?

I thought to myself buy so far, he never has caused me anything aside from the voices that starts to whisper whatnot about him in my head.

My features was plastered with
Terror as I continued walking,
Ignoring the presence behind me that follows me wherever I go, trying to probably keep myself calm.

The next day at school, I saw him again and it terrified me at the least why he was always a tail of mine, following me wherever I'd go. I couldn't help myself to calm down as I was stuck on my standing, frozen on my tracks, staring at his figure that gazed back at me

Everybody around us didn't took notice of him and only passed by, even when getting 'contact' with him didn't caused any reaction to them, like he was the thin air itself.

He then tilted his head a little, strands of his hair falling on his face and then showed a toothy closed eyed grin. I, with my breath held for long,

didn't noticed the dots that have blinded me until everything went black...
