Chapter 63: Bonfire
After two days, the day of the bonfire finally arrived and Lyra wore her new outfit a maxi dress made of a special fabric given by the mermaid king, it was a knee-length blue colored dress, she tied her waist with a ribbon from the same material, her hair was put in a messy bun with frills on both the sides of her forehead.
Getting ready, she came out of the bedroom smiling awkwardly. Blake turned to her and went into trance looking at her, Lucas on another hand blinked his eyes in a daze, then she heard Victor exclaiming "wow!" and at last Noah blushed and turned around.
"What happened?" she looked down at herself "Do I look weird?"
Victor’s eyes sparkled, he reached towards her making her flinch, then cupped her face "How can you look this lovely?"
Blake narrowed his eyes and removed Victor’s hand from her face "Don’t touch her with your dirty hands"
Victor rolled his eyes at Blake and turned towards her beaming, he stretched his hand out "Come, love, let us go to the bonfire"
Lyra went to hold his hand but her hand was snatched away from Lucas, he calmly spoke "I’m holding Ly’s hand"
Victor’s face fell and his eyes glistened, Lyra felt bad for him and stretched her other hand "You can hold this hand"
Victor nodded vigorously and reached to hold her but at the last instant Blake snatched it away, Victor glared at him, Lyra sighed and looked to both her sides "Why are you both so petty? He asked me first"
"I don’t care" came the quick answer from both of them simultaneously
Victor smirked at them "It’s fine love, I always find my way"
