Patience yields Focus

Part One

Y/N POV

As I walked out of the simulator. Loads of garrison cadets chanted my name and cheered at me. Some started asking me questions like:

"Oh my gosh y/n! How the hell did you do that nose dive so cleanly!" Said one jumping up down trying to get my attention.

I was just about to answer that question when another person butted in and said

"How did you get the monitor of the third engine and the oxygen levels on split screen?" Said another.

I was just about the answer that question when Iverson butted in.

"Alright alright cadets you guys have classes in 7 minutes leave miss y/n alone so she can actually get out of the simulator room" Iverson chuckled which was one of the only times I ever heard him laugh.

Some people ground other people cursed as they walked off angrily.

"Yikes.." I muttered to my self." Couldn't I just be left alone for two seconds"

I excused my self from sir as I lowered my head as I fled from the scene. Obviously not looking where I was going, I bumped into someone

" Woah, your chest is as hard as rock" I groaned rubbing my head still looking at the floor.

"Um..thanks I guess erm.." Said the strong chest person. " I don't really work out..so um"

I looked up slowly to see a 5.8 boy around 18-19 years old with black thick hair which was styled into a shaggy mullet. The guy had the most beautiful violet eyes in the world. His hands were in his pockets firmly . He was wearing his uniform loosely and he had the most muddy shoes.

Shit. I didn't just say that allowed did I? 

I prayed to god he would just walk away but he stayed firm in his place studying me like he was looking for something.

"Um is there anything- "

"Ah y/n you've found Keith" Iverson interrupted.

"Keith?" I questioned

"Yes, Keith is going to be your tutee since is grades have been failing recently, yet is pilot training is getting better and better. We would have kicked him out if is Fighter grades were not good enough. But he's really good so we deciding to get him a tutor which is you." Iverson smiled.

Keith started to go quite red to the mention of his bad grades and looked down at the floor.

I felt kind of sympathetic for him but it didn't cloud the fact that I didn't have any time to tutor someone.

Iverson must have noticed my hesitation and sweetened the deal

"Might I add that this will also go on your resume" Iverson said

My eyes widened

That will  make my resume from getting into a really good astrology program.

"Um I guess I could do it.." I said playing with my fingers awkwardly.

Keith walked away to the dorms after hearing those words. Iverson shouted him to come back here right know but he ignored him and carried on walking

"He's a bit of a discipline case. Luckily Sarah and Keith's dorms have swapped so it was easier for you to see eachother" Iverson said proudly

"Oh..so isn't his key going to open the door anyways?" I replied.

"No.. I've swapped those aswell" Iverson smirked.
He dismissed me as I walked away in confusion

So? I guess I have a tutee now

    ———— hours later ————

I yawned as I was about to doze of when a firm knock on my door snapped me out of it

It could be a guard giving me a new timetable. But then again it's like 11pm but I opened it anyway.

It was Keith

" Holy shi-" I slammed the door shut in his face.

I literally looked scary because I just watched a sappy romcom and my eyeliner was dripping down my face and my hair was in multiple braids in the attempt to get pretty wavy hair.

Kieth POV:

"Holy shi-" she said as she shut the door in my face.

Um okay then..did do something wrong I just wanted to formally introduce myself..

I frowned at the door and decided to open it.

"Um why the hell did you shut the door in my face? What did I do wrong?! Answer me what?" I frowned a bit offended.

"GAH. wh-wha what where did you come from" Her face portrayed a shocked awkward look.

"An answer? Please and why are you wearing make up it's the middle of the night are you going somewhere?" I said curiously with a hint of annoyance.

"I was just- because i don't know I just don't feel comfortable I guess" Y/n said avoiding eye contact

"Oh" I didn't want to go any further because I didn't think she wanted to talk about this.

"I- I just wanted to talk you know get to know eachother..you know because we have to like..yeah" I said

She nodded her head and motioned me to sit down

Y/N POV

As keith sat down I asked him to tell me about himself like a life story kind of thing so I could learn something about him.

"Well i never had a mother I always assumed that she abandoned me. And my dad passed away." He said lowly.

"I'm so..sorry I- I can't imagine what it's like gosh" I said covering my hands over my mouth"

"It's alright.." Kieth said with a sad half smile. " I was then put into foster care until I started the Galaxy Garrison because of my friend..shiro

My eyes froze

"WHAT THE HELL"

"He was a really good friend of mine..I just- " His eyes caught a meteor like object entering earth's atmosphere

" Attention All cadets remain in the barracks I repeat all cadets remain in the barracks until further notice"

Oh my god what was happening? I thought

"COME ON" Keith grunted as he motioned me to come out of the dorm room.

"Are you crazy?" DIDNT YOU HEAR?!" I replied back.

" WE HAVE TO GO NOW. I THINK ITS TIME!"
