Tomorrow was the day.

The new moon, the day Anya's powers will be temporarily disabled, Anya enjoyed the break from all the thoughts of others piling into her head but it did complicate things for her since she was so accustomed to hearing peoples thoughts.

When Damian arrived to his dorm room that evening after escorting Anya home he immediately landed on his mattress sinking into pillow

"OH MY GOD SHE IS SO CUTE" the flustered boy scream was muffled by the Pillow, his warm face made the pillow heat up, his heart was going to beat out of his chest, he was sweating, he was feeling emotions he didn't want to feel ill

"uh... Damian-sama? are you ok?" Emile questioned Damian, Damian didn't respond

Emile and Ewen exchange a glance with smirks on their faces, "so that's where you were, you were with forger" Ewen remarked, teasing Damian

"Yeah? And so what?" He said turning his head to look at his friends with a serious expression on his face

"So you two are going out?" Ewen asked

"No" Damian said turning his head over

"Why not? if you like her why don't you just ask her" Emile asked leaning his arm on his knee

"Its not that easy" Damian said facing the wall

The two decide to leave their friend alone and play cards

Plan C was a huge success and Anya was as excited as ever, but she had new problems, she was actually falling for the Scion boy

"This cannot be happening" she said crawling into bed, she thought she could sleep it off and it was just the effect of the new moon's rising tomorrow night, but she couldn't sleep a blink.

Staring up at the ceiling as images of Damian flash through her mind, 'geez instead of hearing everyone else's thoughts I'll hear Desmond Damian Sy-on boy, boss man, dDamian-sama and every other name he's been called under the sun repeatedly in my head' she pressed her palms to her head

'this mission could've been avoid if the big bad boss Desmond just showed up to imperial scholar events, he must really not care about Damian' she thought, reflecting on the mission

The next morning Anya looked like Death itself

She slumped onto the dinning room chair a simple breakfast sat in front of her consisting of eggs and toast, nothing special since Loid had prepared it before he went to work

"You seem really tired Anya" Yor asked as she placed a fork down beside Anya's plate

"I had a lot on my mind, school trip is next week" Anya yawns stretching her arms over her head

Yor looked at her daughter with worry "please don't push yourself too hard Anya-chan" she said

"Its ok Mama" Anya said finishing up her meal and placing her dishes in the sink, Yor giving her a soft smile

"Bus is here bye bye Mama" she called out as she left

Yor watched as her daughter left through the apartment's window
"If anyone is bothering Anya I will personally deal with them myself" Yor whispered with murderous intent

Anya arrived at school entering the classroom To find Damian sleeping on his desk and thought it was best not to bother him.

she rubbed her tired eyes, sitting down at her desk 'there is still plenty of time before class I might as well take a nap too' she thought

Damian peeked from behind his arms adoringly staring at the pink haired girl lying on her desk 'how can someone be so cute without trying? she's literally just sleeping on her desk and I'm freaking out' He thought

footsteps can be heard from the corridor followed by chatter, Damian sits up in his seat rubbing his eyes.

"Ok speak to you at lunch" Beckys voice rung in his ears as the voices reach the room

Damian's friends sit in their seats beside Damian, "Damian-sama, how are feeling now?" Ewen said

Becky sat beside the sleeping Anya, she was drooling over her arm, Becky had a disgusted look on her face and poked her friend

"Huh? what? Why is it raining peanuts" Anya murmured sitting up slowly

"did you not sleep yesterday?" Becky asked as Anya stretched

"Anya couldn't sleep, Anya's stomach is full of butterflies" Anya said groggily, unaware of what she was saying and how it made Becky's eyes light up with delight , 'I'm going to take advantage of Anya's tired state and interrogate her' Becky gleamed, placing her chin on her knuckles.

"so what happened to Anya to make her feel like this" Becky said sweetly, if you were to shut the lights off Becky would light up the room with that smile she had on her face.

"Anya and S-" she started to say, but felt weaker, she needed to sleep.

"S? who is S?" Becky questioned, she grabbed Anya's shoulders and shook her, "Hey! Wake Up!" She yelled to get Anya to wake up, causing Emile, Ewen and Damian to look over in concern

Emile walked over "Hey Forger! Is everything Ok?" Emile asked the half asleep

"She is in no condition to be at school" Becky said feeling guilty without a reason
