This is my new account where I plan to be active, thank you for your understanding and have a good day/evening !
It was a rainy afternoon, it was pouring rain, and it was better to be home than out then. Astrée had been at Carlos's for a while now, she had her own room there and was reading a book when she heard a knock at the door. It was Carlos.He came to offer her to play video games on his console, she accepted but decided to finish the page of the book she was reading first.
" Would you like to play a game ? ", he said, shaking the console in his hands.
" Yeah, just let me finish this page ! ", Astrée exclaimed without taking her eyes off her book.
" Okay, I’ll wait for you in my room ", Carlos replied straight away. He started walking towards his room, leaving the little brunette alone. She had just finished her page. Astrée got up and took the time to put away her book, then followed the boy to his room. Carlos was sitting on the ground with the console in his hands. She came to join him, sitting next to him. They started to play one game, then two, and so on. The games followed one another until, suddenly, Carlos called out to her, " Astrée ? ".
She just answered, " Hm ? ", always watching the console, concentrated.
He turned, the brunette having, even though she was playing video games, one eye on him, and so she did the same, resulting in them being face-to-face. The boy then took the face of the young girl between his two hands, he looked at her straight in the eyes, and she held his gaze despite the difficulty she was experiencing.
" Close your eyes… ", he whispered, his face now very close to Astrée's.
" Why ? ", she replied.
" Don't ask questions and close your eyes. ", His tone had become more authoritative. In response, she just let out a sigh and closed her eyes. He had been planning it for a while now, he couldn't back down, and he consumed the last centimeters that took him away from the one he loved. At first, he kissed her with uncertainty and softness, but then he became more confident and the kiss became deeper. Astrée surprisingly let himself go, and as soon as he was out of breath, they separated. Astrée remained in shock, she hadn't expected that. It wasn't until her eyes went to the console that she came to her senses, she had just lost ! While she had won nearly every game, she was winning this one, and he had decided to kiss her at that time !? She was unable to quell her anger and quickly returned to her room. She was reluctant to show her anger towards the boy, as he was not worthy of her attention at this moment. As for Carlos, he was satisfied. He had a girlfriend now, had his first kiss, and most importantly, he had won the game.

"Here it is! For the birthday girl!" Kiya cheers, setting a beautifully decorated cake on the table in front of the group. "Surprise! Happy birthday Evallina!"
"Don't mind the taste." Celeste winks. "Ilma was in charge of the batter. this time. Don't be surprised if she got the sugar and the salt mixed up again." She nudges the other girl sides. "Wouldn't want another incident like that sodium pancake power bite a few weeks ago, right?"
Ilma groans. "Will you please stop bringing that up? I said I was sorry!" She pushes Celeste aside and throws her arms around Evallina. "I promise I triple checked the labels, just for you! Happy birthday!"
"I grabbed us some some water just in case." Steph appears cheerfully, carrying a tray of waters in. She sets a glass down in front of each of them and sighs, sitting down. "Astrée and i made the icing and its a little thicker than i'd like."
"But delicious!"Astrée adds, bringing in the plates. "I got to taste test it!"
"You guys!" Evallina looks around the table, smiling at her friends. "Thank you all so much. This is truly the best birthday ever! I don't know how I could ever repay you for any of this."
Celeste places a hand on Evallina's shoulder and laughs."You don't have to repay us, silly. Just keep being our friend, that's all." She looks down at the cake."And maybe make a wish and blow out those candles before that delicious cake gets wax all over it."
"Oh!" Evallina quickly turns her attention to the small flames in front of her, thinking for a minute. She smiles, and nods to herself. "I got it!" She says, quickly blowing out the candles.
"Yay! Another successful birthday!" Ilma cheers."Time to cut this delicious and hopefully not salty cake!"
Steph groans. "Ilma! I thought you just said you made sure you didn't mix up the salt and sugar!" She slowly begins cutting the cake, handing the birthday girl the first piece. "Just for that we should make you take the first bite!"
"I said i triple checked the labels! Not that I checked what I put into the cake!-"
"ILMA-"
Evallina smiles to herself, taking a small bite of her cake. "Its perfect. All of it." She tells herself over the laughter and yelling of her friends.
@heliosblaze @beybladesblog you started with your art stealing agenda again. I hope that you will be deleted from the internet one day and never get back AT ALL. You never knew the efforts these artists put on, whereas you just steal these and post them, sometimes putting your own stupid af watermark on them? Go get some help. One day, we will start reposting your art if you start drawing, and you'll understand the pain then. You are tryna rip off the efforts of artists. Don't think that these plagiarized content will get more likes than posted by the copyright owners.

@ogbeybladeocs
The weather was pleasant when Evallina left the house. She turned her head and waved Sergei who was standing at the door, obviously observing her. The blue haired then started her walk and hummed a little to herself, and with a warm feeling in her chest she started to smile to herself. Today was a good day, she thought to herself. It was a warm and sunny day and she was deep in thoughts... Boris wasn't mean to her, quite the opposite - he had smiled at her and talked to her in such a gentle voice and her heart had skipped a beat at this moment.
She was about to take a shortcut down a side street when she saw a girl sitting on the ground. Her hair was short and brown, her eyes had a turqoise color - and she looked so sad, it hurts her.
Carefully she knelt down to her and smiled softly. " Is everything alright ? Do you need help ? ", she was asking the girl. " I'm Evallina... ", she started and the other girl was staring at her, her eyes widened.
" I-I'm... Astrée... ", her voice was quiet and she looked now shyly at the blue haired girl, and then she straightened up. Astrée was shorter than her, but Evallina was taller than every other Beygirl she has met yet, so this was no surprise for her. " Pleasure to meet you ! ", Evallina reached her hand to the other girl and showed her a little beaming smile, and her smile widened as Astrée took her hand.
" Do you know... Much people ?? Maybe a few, uhm, who participate in the championships here ?? "
The blue haired tilted her head an then she nodded. Of course she knew them all, after all she was a member of the Neoborg team and she was the grandaughter from Mr. Dickenson - and she was the future CEO of the BBA, so she knew very much people.
" You know what, I take you with me and then we can talk, okay ? I guess you need something to eat, and let's be honest, this is not the best place to talk. " Astrée looked confused at first, but the other girl was happy when she had followed her back to the house.
" The others won't bite you, they can look intimidating but they are all very sweet ! At least Sergei is the sweetest among them... ", the last part she had mumbled to herself and opened the door. She looked around and took of her boots. " I'm back guys ! And we have a guest ! ", she showed Astrée the living room and was sitting beside her on the couch. " So... ", she wanted to ask the other girl who she was searching, but then the other boys showed up...
The boys looked surprised at first, and the team captain stepped forward. " Who is she ? ", he asked while he took a seat opposite from Astrée. He never saw this girl in his life before, and Evallina wouldn't randomly took a girl into their home for no reason - and he trusted her.
Evallina looked besides her and observed the other girl for a while and then she looked at Yuriy. " Her name is Astrée, she is searching for someone and she looked so sad out there, thats why I took her home. Please don't be mad Yura. Maybe we could help her... ", she looked softly at him. He said nothing and she took it as an 'okay' from him.
" Astrée, this is my team captain Yuriy. ", the blue haired pointed to the grey haired man now. " This is Boris, beside him is Kai. ", she pointed at him and grinned a little when he folded his arms in front of his chest as usual. And then she pointet at the tallest of them. " And this... ", her voice got a bit softer, " This is Sergei. " They boved smiled at each other and he noded than as he looked at Astrée. Silently he was going in the kitchen and Evallina followed him, after she excused herself and left Astrée alone with the other three boys.
She looked at the tall man in front of her and helped him. " Evallina, you just can't stop trying to help someone. " It wasn't a question and he looked straight at her face. " She really needs our help. I couldn't leave her alone out in the streets and all by herself ! " Sergei came closer and she felt his warm hand against her cheek. " I didn't mean that in a bad way, I know how you feel. And I know that you are something very special… At least for me. ” She heard his last words and felt her cheeks warm up. " We will certainly be able to help her. " She looked up at him in embarrassment and nodded silently. First Boris was so nice to her and now Sergei made her heart pound.
" W-we should continue here... ", she cleared her throat quietly and prepared the tea that Sergei had started. None of them said anything and so the two did their work silently. With his help she carried a tray with coffee for the boys and tea for Astrée and herself into the living room.
With a gentle smile, she handed the brown-haired one a steaming cup and then sat down next to her on the sofa.
" So... who are you looking for ? ", she then asked to the girl next to her and the eyes of her teammates were now on Astrée.
The brunette girl took a deep breath, all those eyes on her made her nervous but finally she started.
" I'm looking for a friend, and my parents. I was separated from them shortly after my birth and I only have this simple photo as a memory. ", Astrée opened her medallion adorned with a star and revealed the image of a man, a woman and an infant. The man had black hair and hazel eyes, the woman was the spitting image of Astrée with the only difference being longer hair.
She resumed, in a slightly more confident tone. " My friend was supposed to participate in a Beyblade championship when we parted, but since then I haven't heard from her and I'm worried, it's not like her. I would like to find her and understand the reason for her silence. "
Evallina listened and then looked at the medallion and then she stared at the picture. For a little moment she closed her eyes and her thoughts were running. No. No, she had never saw those two people in her life. When she opened her eyes, she looked at Astrée and bit her lower lip. She really wanted to help her, but how should she do this ? " I'm so sorry but I never saw them. I would remember when I did. " Especially the last part she was mumbling to herself. Yes, she would remember them, after all she had Leviathan on her side and...
Again, she was deep in thoughts and looked confused for a moment when she heard the others talking. None of the boys ever saw Astrée's parents. The brunette mentioned a friend who...
" Your friend is a blader ?! Who is it ?? Maybe we know your friend ! ", she looked with sparkling eyes at the other girl. There was a chance that they knew Astrée's friend, and the championship was held here and her team had a fight tomorrow !
" There could be a high chance, when we know who your friend is, to meet up with your friend. It's our team's turn tomorrow. ", Yuriy looked concerned at the brunette and took a sip from his coffee.
Astrée knew that for her parents there was little chance that anyone could help her, finally if only one person could help her it was doctor Dinah, if only she wanted to do it... But after seeing the sparkling eyes of Evallina, Astrée regained hope. " My friend's name is Mathilda, we shared everything and even our beyblades are linked, my Fierce Hedgehog and her Pierce Hedgehog are twins. "
She took out her beyblade and looked at it fondly, probably thinking back to all the battles and wonderful memories they shared.
When the blue haired girl heard the name from Astrée's friend, she blinked a few times. Mathilda ?? Mathilda Alster ? The little pink haired girl from Barthez Soldiers ?
She wanted to say something but she only could shake her head in disbelieve. Oh this could end up terrible...
Sergei stood up and walked around the couch, only to put his hand on Evallina's shoulder. He knew Leviathan showed her a Vision at this moment. He knew it as soon she was speechles and looked terrified.
" She was this little girl from the Barthez team, right ? ", Boris question took her out of her trance, and she looked behind her and saw Sergei's concerned face. She nodded a little to sign him that she was okay now. " Astrée... ", she took a deep breath and fumbled with the fabric of her skirt. " The thing is, we do know her. " Her facial expression showed a sad face now. " And to be honest, we have to face her tomorrow. She's our opponent. "
Evallina gulped and looked at Astrée's Beyblade. " So you two have a really deep bond, hm ? ". With a sigh she looked at the red head an lyed her hand on Sergei's, who's hand was still on her shoulder.
" We can took you with us to the stadium, but I would prefer that you would go to her after our battle ! ". He looked seriously at the other girl and leaned back. He wanted a fair fight and not that it would get too emotional if the two girls met and it would change their competition. He didn't need a distraction like this. " I guess you could stay the night in Evallina's room if you want. Well, it's the only option we have right now when you want to meet your little friend, am I right ? "
" You can stay the night with me if you want ! ", Boris was looking at Evallina and raised an eyebrow questioningly. And then he grinned a little when he saw Sergei's reaction to this. So he was right... He liked Evallina too.
" I can stay with Astrée if she want ! "
Evallina didn't wanted Boris and Sergei to have a fight over something... Dumb. And she didn't wanted to leave the other girl alone.
" Let's do it like this : Sergei and I will take care of the food, I'll show you my room and you'll sleep with me tonight. And tomorrow we'll take you to Mathilda, yes ? ", she smiled softly at Astrée and carefully took her hand, only to squeeze it gently. She would help her, and she would not leave her alone.
Astrée seemed a bit confused by Evallina's reaction, however when she heard about their upcoming fight against Mathilda, she was relieved, finally, she was going to see her again and have the answers she had been waiting for so long.
When Evallina asked her about her relationship with Mathilda, Astrée replied in a voice full of nostalgia, " She was there when there was no one for me, she is my family and I would do anything for her. "
Suddenly the captain of the team, Yuriy began to speak, she listened diligently to his words before responding with a nod, a sign that she understood that she would have to wait until the end of the battle before seeing her friend again. Then she added with a small smile, " You're right. "
When the discussion about where she was going to sleep came, she listened carefully and watched the various team members as they talked. She said in her calm, collected tone, " It's okay, I'm going to sleep with Evallina for tonight and tomorrow you'll drive me to Mathilda. "
Evallina was relieved that Astrée would sleeping in her room, and she was a bit nervous about tomorrow. She ignored the bad feeling she has gotten and followed Sergei once again in the kitchen to prepare the dinner. They ate together and went upstairs to her room. She gave the brown-haired clothes to sleep in and by far they lay down in bed together. " Sleep well, I'll wake you up early in the morning. " She looked at the other encouragingly and pulled the covers over them both. It took a while before she finally fell asleep, and she sighed softly when her alarm clock rang the next morning.
The blue haired got up hesitantly and gently shook Astrée's shoulder to wake her up in a gentle way. " Good morning. Take your time, I'll make breakfast. Come downstairs when you're ready ! ", she said quietly and took her clothes, which she put on in the adjoining bathroom and got ready.
With quiet steps she went into the kitchen and prepared the breakfast, and one by one the others joined them. Breakfast passed in silence, no once dared something to say right now. With a look to the clock, Yuriy stood up and looked to the others. " We will leave in ten minutes, so be ready in time. " And so, everyone prepared to leave the house and they were on the way to the stadium. When they arrived, she saw many other teams and with a little sigh she took Astrée to their team room.
They adjusted their beyblades for the last time, and then their match against Barthez Soldiers was the first for today. " Have fun out there, and leave something left for Kai ! ", she grinned and kissed Yuriy lightly on the cheek, only to see the reactions from Boris and Sergei.
" Can't promise anything. Let's go ! " Yuriy grinned too and then the were on the way to the arena. Evallina looked beside her and her gaze fell onAstrée. She really hoped that she and Mathilda could talk - and she hoped Astrée would become the answers she wanted.
Her team captain was the first who was announced to play the first round, and then to all their surprise, Mathilda would be his opponent!
The red head played his match and I didn't took long until he won it with his Novae Rog. The next Match was Kai's, and he won his match too - so they came in the next round of this tournament and she was proud of her boys.
"I guess it's time, hm?", she walked down the hallway with Astrée and the boys and then she saw the Barthez Soldiers coming their way towards them. She was standing in front of the brunette and when she saw Mathilda, she stood aside with a concerned look on her face...
Astrée followed Evallina to her bedroom and went to change in the adjoining bathroom, the clothes to sleep that the blue-haired one had given her was slightly too big, probably because of their size difference. They went to bed and after Evallina pulled the covers over them, Astrée said a soft, " Good night. "
During the night, Astrée couldn't help dreaming, she thought of Mathilda, the memories they had together, but also why and how was it that she had no news. She also dreamed of the day that had happened and strangely of this dear redhead that was Yuriy although she didn't know why...
The next morning she blinked slowly when the blue haired girl gently woke her up, she got dressed shortly after Evallina in the bathroom and went downstairs to have breakfast. That done, she prepared to depart to the beystadium with apprehension.
Once in the team room, Astrée looked carefully at Yuriy and Mathilda's match, the latter quickly lost to her visibly stronger opponent. She had, however, observed her friend's appearance more than the progress of the match, she did not seem in bad health or unhappy, nothing seemed to be able to prevent her from sending her letters as she had promised but then why didn't she give any news ? This made her somewhat angry.
Once the battle was over, the boys' victory being indisputable, Astrée glanced at Evallina, she was visibly proud of her team and that put some balm in the heart of the brunette who was happy to see that at least one of her was happy. After nodding back to the blue-haired one, and after arriving in the hallway, her pink-haired friend was indeed there, in front of her since Evallina had moved away. Mathilda and her team were apparently disappointed to have lost but they were still chatting cheerfully about their match, this aroused a sudden rage in Astrée, so had she completely forgotten about her !? They had shared so much, in the best as in the worst, her only family... Terribly saddened, she did not however want to be weak in front of all these people and anger then took over, she lowered her head, the trembling lips, she called Mathilda in a deep voice compared to her usual rather soothing tone. " Mathilda ! "
As soon as Evallina had heard Astrée's deep and saddened voice, she knew exactly what would happened next. Leviathan had shown her this vision yesterday...but she really hoped that everything would not be...this bad. She looked at Mathilda and then back to the other girl, and then it was Kai who stood in front of her, blocking her view - and not only blocking her view, he didn't wanted the other ones looking at her, how she was visibly fighting with herself. Her nosebleed was back und her head started to aching. This wasn't good... She looked at Yuriy and tapped against his shoulder. "Keep an eye on Astrée, please". He nodded and it was Boris who took her on his arms, only to carry her back in their team room. She needed to rest, so Astrée was sadly on her own now - but she knew that the brunette was strong enough for this encounter.
Mathilda was laughing with her friends and then she saw the whole Neoborg team in front of their room. She looked with a smile at Evallina, and when she stepped aside, she saw her, heard her voice when she had called her name. And she was not happy when her voice was so deep, she sounded really hurt. But...what was she doing here? Why was she with the Russian team??
On the other hand, she was so happy to see Astrée right in front of her!
"What a surprise", she strated and gave her best friend a beaming smile. "I've missed you soooo much!". She was walking fast towards the brunette and hugged her. For a brief moment she closed her eyes and sighed in relief. Astrée was looking good even if she was propaply on her own. This had made her sad, because they both were so close to each other.
She steped back and observed her friend and was shocked that she had such an angry expression on her face. "Hey why are you angry?? Are you not happy to see me?". Mathilda was confused about this now. What did she done wrong?
"Did you..not get my letters?? I've wrote you countless times, but you never answered... I was worried about you Astrée!".
Astrée contracted under Mathilda's embrace, why did she seem happy to see her if she had never written to her ? Was she playing with her ? Did she want to hurt her ? So many questions flashed through her thoughts, they were unfortunately unanswered... Despite everything and she didn't want to admit it to herself, being in her friend's arms warmed her heart after all she had gone through to find her. But when Mathilda told her that she had sent her letters and that she, Astrée, had never answered her, the tears came in spite of herself. Did Mathilda send her all those letters ? But why hadn't she received them ? Suddenly an image came to mind, more than an image it was a face, the face of Doctor Dinah, Mathilda's aunt and the one who wanted to be Astrée's mother without succeeding however. Dinah had always been odd with the brunette, noticing their physical and character similarities and contrasting her as her own daughter, indeed Dinah was barren and therefore couldn't have children, something she bitterly regretted. She was the definition of a toxic, possessive mother, she didn't want to share Astrée with anyone, not even her own niece. After all, Dinah had never been thrilled with the idea of their friendship. But Astrée didn't want to think about it, both terrified and repelled by the doctor, she wanted answers and heard them from Mathilda. She lifts her head, tears still streaming down her cheeks, she says in a small, shaky voice, " Is that true ? Did you send them as promised ? I didn't get any... I was so worried. I left that crazy hospital for you and that was no small feat. "
She was in shock when she saw the tears, who were streaming down Astrée's face. She never wanted so see her like this, her heart ached. She was a part of her family!
"Of course I send them as promised", she spoke quietly and wiped carefully the newly formed tears away. "I don't understand why you never recieved them, and I'm so sorry I worried you. I would never ever do something like this, please believe me". The pink haired blinked her upcoming tears away and looked in the turqoise eyes in front of her.
"And I'm terribly sorry about...well...the hospital. I know how hard this must been for you". Again she hugged her and embraced her friend a bit longer. With one of her hands she strocke trough the brown hair, while the other one was gliding up and down Astrées back to calm her down. "Astrée", she began and gulped. "Maybe there is...", she began and shaked her head a little. No, this couldn't be. There is one person who was obsessed with the brunette. One person who was close to both of them - and she was family too!
She looked at the face of her friend and bit her lower lip. "Maybe 'she' is the reason behind this, don't you think??". She was heartbroken when she thought about her own aunt. When she thought about that she took all the letters from them, that she interfered between them!
"If you want, you can come with us and we can talk about this", she smiled a little and then she was aware that the eyes fromher own team and the russian team were on them.
She then looked at Yuriy and was a bit intimidated, but she still smiled. "Thank you that you kept her safe! This means a lot to me!", she explained and added, "and congratulations to your win!".
The brunette dried her tears and with a voice full of emotions replied to her friend, " Of course I believe you ! "
When Mathilda spoke of the hospital, Astrée closed her eyes, thinking back to the terrible memories that were linked to the famous building. She then whispered so that no one but Mathilda could hear her, " You had nothing to do with it, it's this damn anemia I've had since I was born that's the cause... " She in turn hugged the pink-haired one and enjoyed the warmth of her friend's embrace. When their hug ended, and Mathilda expressed her suspicions about her Aunt Dinah, Astrée could only nod. Indeed, she was now certain that the absence of the letters was due to the actions of the terrible doctor.
" I'm coming with you, but we'll never leave each other, okay ? ", she turned her gaze to the captain of the Russian team and said in her soft voice, " Is Evallina okay ? " - Without really waiting for an answer, after all she already knew it - she approached the redhead and took his hands instinctively, she added with a smile, " Anyway thank you for taking care of me and above all let's stay in touch, I would really like to see you again and I hope to be able to see Evallina in better shape ! ”
Yuriy watched Astrée and Mathilda for a while and allowed the others to leave. When The Brunette asked about Evallina, he was about to reply, but when he felt Astrée's delicate hands on his, he blinked in confusion.
She was just so... Confused, he looked down at her and saw the smile on her lips. Whatever was happening here, he felt different. He'd never had a feeling like this before and he wasn't sure what it was, or what triggered it.
He smiled slightly and shook his head slightly. "I'm sure she'll be better soon and there's nothing to be thankful for." Sure, it was Evallina who wanted so badly to help her, and if he was honest he wouldn't have had the heart to just put her back on the street.
The redhead nodded at her and raised his hand in farewell before turning around. "See you!".
With quick steps he found himself in her room again and looked at the blue-haired girl who was tiredly hanging in Boris' arms. She was very pale and you could still see some of the blood that had dried in the meantime. They all knew that Evallina's body needed rest at moments like this, so they headed home...
It was in the middle of the night when Yuriy heard some light footsteps ion the floor. He knew instantly who it was, and when he looked up, he saw the blue haired in front of him now.
"Let me guess, you can't sleep?", his voice was calm and he smiled a little bit at her. She shooked her head and was sitting besides him on the couch in the living room. "Yuriy, I need to talk to someone...", she started and he noticed how sad she sounded. Did she had a fight with Boris? Or was there something with Sergei?? If one of them would make her unhappy, he would..
He interuptet he own thoughts when he hear how she started to sniffle. Oh no, she had started to cry.
"Do you remember when Astrée showed us her pendant witht the pictures from her parents?", her voice was shaking. "Yeah I do, but we all never saw them. Is there something you know??". He wiped her tears carefully away and looked at her questionably. Whe she noded, he had a bad feeling. He remembers how she had reacted to the photo, how Sergei reacted to her. Of course there was something she knew!
"Her parents are dead... Leviathan showed me something from them, from Astrées past and then I saw it. They're long gone... I couldn't say it to her. It would break her. I'm a terrible persone to keep it to mysel, but....Yuriy I can't stand this any longer!". Evalins whole body was shaking, and so he was putting his arms around her. "Youre the best thing that happened to all of us! Don't you ever blame yourself for something like this. And I think...It was good you didn't said something to her. She is fragile just like you, but you have one thing you...can do. Only you can do...", he looked deep in her eyes and he was reliefed when she breathet normaly again, when the tears stopped and she was calm again.
"I guess It's better for us to erase memories, don't you think?".
Yuriy was still holding her, and then Evallina let out a shaky sigh.
"Youre right... L-lets head to bed and I'll do it". She carefully pulled away from him and they both were on their wys to their bedrooms. But before Yuriy was entering his rom, Evallina took his hand and he saw how she had closed her eyes. And he didn't noticed how she took his memories. The only thing he remembered was when he asked he if she couln't sleep and that they were sitting together, before they go to bed.
Evallina had erased his memories, and her own as well. Forgotten was the sad moment, the vision from Astrées parents.
The next day they sat in the audience watching a Beyblade match since they didn't have to fight today and after the match they walked down the hall towards the team rooms. Evallina looked at Astrée from afar and nudged Yuriy. She winked at him with a slight grin on her lips.
"She's cute, isn't she?" she asked quietly, noticing a slight blush on her team leader's cheeks.
And when the brunette noticed her, Evallina waved at her. "Come on, say something," she teased, giggling when he looked at her menacingly. However, she noticed the look Yuriy was giving Astrée.
The brunette answered a sweet " Yeah, see you soon... " before turning back to her lifelong friend, her cheeks flushed. Mathilda silently watched the scene, fully aware of her best friend's feelings despite Astrée's ignorance about it.
Once back in their residence, the members of the Barthez Battalion prepare for dinner, the meal was animated, the questions about the new arrival fused until the end of the meal. When the pink-haired one ended the discussions, after seeing her exhausted brunette friend, disappointed looks formed on the faces of her companions. They went upstairs, each going in turn to the bathroom before going to bed.
" So, like that the captain of the Russian team catch your eye ? " Mathilda said, a mischievous smile on her face. Astrée turned around with her mouth open in o, an offended look on her face, she exclaimed, still looking offended, " How so ?! " Mathilda replied with a small laugh before saying, " You like him, don't you ? After all, it's true that he has his charm... " Astrée frowned, before huffing in annoyance and exclaiming. " Nonsense ! I'm talking to you about Mihael maybe ! " She blushed, " How do you know ? " The brunette gave her a look before closing her eyes and saying calmly, " It shows... The looks you gave him during dinner w deere enough for me to understand. " The pink-haired girl looked down before replying, " Enough about our love affairs Astrée, we things to catch up on and a good night's sleep will do us all good ! ” Astrée nodded before adding in a whisper, “ You started it Matty… ”.
The next morning they got up to watch the day's match, they got ready quickly before leaving the residence for the stadium. Once there, they sat in the stands and watched the match, once the game was over, they went to the hall of the team rooms to congratulate the winners.
When Astrée saw Evallina and Yuriy, she whispered a little, " I'll join you... ", to Mathilda, before joining the blue-haired girl and the red-haired boy, the latter always leaving her with this strange impression in her heart. " Hello Yuriy and Evallina, how are you today ? " She cast a discreet glance at Yuriy, although she wouldn't be surprised if he noticed her...
When Astrée stood in front of him, he was observing her for a quick moment. She looked a bit better than the day before. More healthier. Her Face has a bit more color and wasn't so pale. Yeah, she really looked cu-... Wait, why did he thought something like this?!
"You look good". Yeah, his mouth was faster than his brain today.
"I mean...healtier! You know?". Evallina started to giggle and he looked at her, with an annoying expression. She definitley hung out to much with Boris!
"He's right, I guess it was good that you are with Mathilda now!". Evallina smiled at her and she looked at Yuriy. Then she spoke in russin to him, so no one els knew what she was talking to him now.
>>Ask for her number!<< - she looked innocent at him and he shook his head.
>>Why should I do this?!" - >>Because I see how you were looking at her. And I don't have her number. So do it!<< - and with that, she excused herself and took Boris and Sergeis hand.
"I need some fresh air~! We should follow Kai, I know he is waiting outside". And with this, she was leaving the redhead alone.
And he starred a little moment after his teamates, until he gave Astrée his full attention.
"Can I have you number?", again, he was action...different in front of her. Why was this happening??
"So we can stay in contact and so", he mumbled it more to himself and gave her his phone. Was he nervous? She wanted to stay in contact with him right? Or did she meant with the whole team???
Astrée notices that the redhead looked at her and feels embarrassed but above all flattered by this attention. When he added that she looked good, her heart skipped a beat, no one had told her yet that she looked good, he was told more often that she was ugly with her boyish appearance , her cheeks flushed more and she answered in a whisper, a small smile barely concealed on her face, " Thank you... " She didn't understand why Evallina chuckled but she answered her question. " Yeah, it's better since I found Matty ! "
She also doesn't understand the exchange between Evallina and Yuriy but thinks she should learn russian one day, she however understands that Evallina intends to leave them both alone and the idea of being alone facing the captain of the Russian team made her nervous. When he asked her for her number, her cheeks flushed, she thought about staying in touch with the whole team but especially with Evallina and him to be honest. She answered with a slight stammer, " Y-yes, sure ! " The brunette picked up the phone and dialed her number, " Here ! " she said handing the phone back to him.
Yuriy was amused when he noticed how she had reacted to him. Especially her now reddend cheeks. He had to be honest with himself, she was indeed, really cute. While she was dialing her number, he observed her even more. He liked those Aquamarin eyes and her dark hair. It was a nice contrast. And she was wearing warm tones for her clothes. Her hair looked so silky, he wished he could slides his finger trough it and-
He received his phone back and looked at the screen.
>>Astrée Robins<<
His heart skipped a beat when he saw her name on it now. He put his phone back into his pocket and looked at her again. He noticed a small flower petal who was stuck on the top of her hair. Without saying anything, he came closer and carefully he took the petal out of her hair. Yeah, he was right, her hair was silky...
"You had something in your hair", he showed it to her. He needed to try something, so he leaned down a little towards her and spoke quietly.
"I hope you cheer me on tomorrow!".
He grinned, and he slowly started to walk, but he turned his head towards her. "See you around, little miss Robins". He winked at her before he walked out. Oh it was funny to tease her a little bit.
Astrée blinked, Yuriy's purple gaze was stunning, and to think that gaze was on her... It was confusing, she was used to disgusted looks and faces but today it was observant eyes that scrutinized her whole and with interest. When he approached to remove the flower petal stuck in her hair, her heart raced, in emotion, she could only respond by stammering, " T-Thank you ! " When he approached a little closer, her heart skipped a beat again. She replied to the captain of the Russian team with a nod, too shaken to be able to say anything. When he walked away she could only look at him, thoughtful of what had just happened, she wondered why it all happened like this and what were Yuriy's intentions, had she also caught his eye ? Did he like her ? Or did he just tease her for fun ? Had she really fallen under his charm ? So many unanswered questions put her in a bad mood, after all, she thinks way too much, she should be content to join Mathilda instead of standing like an idiot looking at the one she loved unconsciously, such were her thoughts.
