Chapter 3

"Uh... I'm-... Aster." Aster hesitantly waved his hand, slightly confused. Lake giggled and ruffled his hair, making it messy under the hoodie. Lake smiled warmly and lifted her head up. "Now that we introduced each other, let's try and get to know each other better. Follow me."

Lake walked out of the castle, leaving Aster to look at Raven with a pleading look. The grayish blue looking troll groaned and followed Lake as told, he stood beside her and put his hands in his front pockets, putting his bag of arrows behind his back, which Lake clearly saw. She smiled brightly. "So, you like archery?"

"Yeah, my father made this bow with his bare hands, and something to carve it of course. It has my name on it, signed with my parents." He chuckled and showed it to her, Lake giggled and smiled, she pulled out her wooden spear and showed her parent's signatures and smiled. "Mine too... we have a lot in common! How old are you?"

"21. You?" Aster tilted his head, raising an eyebrow. He assumed her being like 30 years old, but he was surprised at the answer she gave him. "I'm 21 too!"

"Wow." Aster blinked a few times, then Lake giggled and patted his back. "What? You thought I was old? Pshh, I'm the party queen!"

"Yeah, yeah." He rolled his eyes, smiling widely. He already liked her instantly. (A/N: Hahaha not like that yet BranchieAndPoppy  XD) He purses lips, he already had so many questions to ask her, and she had a lot of questions to ask him, ya know, to get to know him better and be his friend. Aster took a deep breath, and asked. "Lake, right? Where do you live? What do you like? Who do you like?"

Lake's eyes widened, then she took a deep breath and spoke out. "I used to live in Fiji Village, but it is gone now... I like chocolate and so much more!!! And... I like a certain troll, but he likes someone else. But, you know..."

She shrugged her shoulders, holding up a smile. Aster nodded, he actually understood her and truly felt bad for her. He patted her back. "Don't worry, I'm... sure there's still someone there for you. You just gotta be patient."

"That's what I always say." She giggled and smiled brightly, then she noticed the scrapbook from his hair and grabbed it, Aster's eyes widened and he quickly tried grabbing it, but thanks to Lake's hand from keeping him away, Lake opened it and saw pictures of him and his family, including his baby pictures. Lake smiled. "Awwwww! This is so cute!!!"

"Give it back!" Aster whined, and frowned, Lake giggled and shook her head. "Nope! As your tutor, you have to follow me."

"What?!" Aster groaned and gave up, tossing his arms up to his chest as he frowned widely. After a while of looking, Lake closed the scrapbook and gave it back to him, Aster hugged the scrapbook and glared at her. "HOW DARE YOU???"

She giggled and crossed her arms, smirking. "I don't know, it's your fault for bringing that to my class."

"Whatever." He rolled his eyes and put the scrapbook back, making sure she wouldn't grab it again. She elbowed him with a smirk. "Cmon! We're all cute as babies! I mean, who isn't?"

"I guess... you're right?" He raised an eyebrow as she giggled and continued walking, with Aster following her. Aster thought for a moment and sighed. It's gonna be a long day... well, I guess I deserve it anyway. An over excited tutor who is actually really nice and pretty, I think I can get used to this...
