Aydens's POV
Walking home after eating sushi:
We had already left the mall and were on our way home. It was a very long walk. I didn't mind one bit though.
I literally cannot stop staring at Tanner. I mean who could blame me. The guy was a friggin god. Everything from his brown curly hair, to his blue eyes, to his smile. He was perfect. He would never go for a guy like me though. I was nowhere near his league. I was the opposite to everything that described him, he was tall I was short, he was muscular I wasn't, he was attractive I wasn't. I just hope he would at least let me be his friend. He seemed to like me, otherwise he wouldn't be talking to me this much.
"Ayden, you're doing it again.", he chuckled. He was waving a hand in front of my face. I was staring again. Great.
"Sorry, I zoned out again. My bad haha.".
"You tend to do that a lot haha, if I didn't know any better-", he leaned in next to my ear and breathed,"-I'd say you were checking me out.". I shuttered when I felt his breath hit my ear, I turned towards him and blushed oh so friggin hard. I thought I was going to pass out right there and then.
"I-I w-well um, I.".
"I was just teasing haha. You smell good by the way.", I blushed again. Stupid face.
He kept poking me over and over again. Well he did it one time and I giggled and we both looked at each other. Me, full of fear. Him, full of amusement. Now he just repeatedly pokes me every chance he gets. He went in for another poke and I grabbed his hand before he could.
"Aha! Not so funny now is it?", I said with a smirk. He just shrugged and moved his hand so our fingers were entwined and just kept walking like it was nothing. I just stared at him in shock.
"Um T-Tanner?".
"Yeah?".
"W-what are you doing?".
"Um, holding your hand? Is that bad?".
"Bad pft whaaat? No, but where are we going? Ezra and Raven went that way.", I had noticed that we were going down a different path than the others.
"Don't worry I know a shortcut to Calypso. It's just through here.", he stopped and said something under his breath. Then waved his hand in a circular motion and a ripple formed in front of us. Growing more and more until it was about the same size as him, I could see the front door to Calypso in front of it.
"Come on, told you I had a shortcut. It's a small trick I can do.", he pulled me through the ripple and we were now in front of calypso.
"I wish I could do that. Thanks for the shortcut Tanner."
"You're very welcome"
This boy was still holding my hand. For unknown reasons obviously. I turn around and watch our echos both 'poof' meaning they went to their mind realms.
We entered the front doors and greeted the Calypso mentor at the front. And still... holding hands. I mean I wasn't complaining at all. It was just weird? I dont know.
"Hey, um. Tanner?"
He turned his head toward me. "Yes?"
And as I stared into those beautiful orbs that seemed to see right through me, I knew I would make a fool of myself with the word vomit that would flop out of my mouth.
"C-coul. Um. Yo-... hand?", was all I could get out. He chuckled and I swear I almost blew my panties. It was so deep and confident in a way that he knew it was affecting me emensly.
"I wanted to hold your hand. Is that a bad thing? I can sto-"
"No! Um, I'm o-okay with it." He leaned in. I could feel his minty breath on my skin and my body shuddered.
"Good to know. Hey, you have pretty eyes. Has anyone ever told you that?"
I gulped and answered back "N-no but thank you.".
He nodded towards the door next to us and cocked his eyebrow.
"This is me, wanna come in?"
"Um, shure."
This was going to be a very eventful night.

Ezra's POV:
------------
Somewhere along the way I guess Ayden and Tanner had gotten ahead of us because their echos were playing in the lobby of Calypso.
Me, Raven, Aegeus, and Hecate went up the stairs to Ravens loft and it was surprisingly clean. And I say surprising because theres times where his room is a pig stye.
"Babe, I wanna watch a movie. Do you wanna pick or me?"
I thought about it and I really jjst wanted him to choose it because we had a really long day and I know it's only been a few weeks but classes are rough.
"It's fine you can pick, just nothing scary."
"Okie, dokie."
He put on Epic. That movie with the tiny people. I saw the previews I just havn't seen it yet. I sat down on the couch next to Raven and he handed me a bowl of popcorn that I gladly took. As the movie started I snuggled into his side and watched Aegeus and Hecate play.
-------
Later that night...
-------
"That was such a cute movie!", at this point I was crying at how sad but happy the ending was and Raven just say there staring at me like I was crazy.
"Yeeeeaaah. Great."
"Hey mister, don't judge me. You cried by watching that shirt film In A Heartbeat. And that was only a few minute long."
"Okay that's not even fair, that film was beautiful!" He argued back.
I just chuckled and shook my head. I noticed it was already 11:48 on the small clock on the wall. I should probably get to sleep. I have class tomorrow.
"Babe, I'm gonna go ahead and crash for the night we have class and it's getting late." As I turned to go to the door connecting our lofts he grabbed my elbow and stopped me.
"Wait wait wait wait.-" he spun me around and pushed me against the door. Leaning in close to my ear.
"Without a proper goodbye? I'm hurt Ezra. You didn't even bother staying here. Look-" he nodded at Aegeus and Hecate. "- they're both sleeping. It's been a long day for us both so why don't we have a little fun?" He breathed. Sending shivers down my spine.
"I-I, um. Okay." He chuckled and burried his face into my neck. Inhaling my scent. His hands roamed my sides while he kissed my skin. He nibbled at the area connecting my neck and shoulder causing me to gasp.
"S-Stop teasing Raven!" He covered my mouth with his hand.
"Shhh, you'll wake them." He leaned in and his lips met mine. Starting slow he didn't want to rush it and it was driving me crazy. He took my loss in reality as a chance to slip his tounge in and meet mine in a passionate embrace.
"Mmmmm." He moaned into my mouth. When he pulled back for air he kissed my forehead and whispered.
"Let me ravage you." With foggy eyes and lucid breathing. His hands trailed to my bum and he squeezed. Lifting me as I wrapped my legs around his waist. He ground his hips against mine and I couldn't hold back the moan that left my mouth.
