The finals had ended and Their summer vacation is just a few days away from  now.

One day, Edward suddenly a topic while they are all eating breakfast. He suddenly said that he found someone he likes, out of nowhere...


"Wow! Our Edward found someone he likes!" Their mother rejoyced


"Now...Who is the lucky girl?" Their Father smirked as he asked and look at his eldest son



"She's actually one of Allen's friends..." Edward said with a smile


Hearing that, Allen choked out of surprised...


(At Aria's house)


"That's why i told you to slow down" Aria's mother said

Aria uses Telepathy to talk to Allen

(What's with you all of a sudden???) Aria asked

(My brother...said that he likes one of my friends...) Allen said as his words stagger as he speaks

(Boy's Love?) Aria asked

(WRONG! IDIOT!!!) Allen said shouting

(Ok...Now i'm really curious. Ask him about the appearance or something...) Aria said

(Back to Allen's House)

Allen recovers from his choking and seated properly.

He asks his brother for the details of his crush...

(Now...Start with the basic. Ask if it is a boy or a girl.) Aria said to Allen, with the use of telepathy


"So which One? Is it a boy or a girl?" Allen Asks

His mother pinched his ear and that was also felt by Aria...

"Of Course! It's A Girl! I'm Not Homo, Bro!" Edward said as he looked surprised and slightly angered to that stupid question that Allen gave him...

(Ouch...)-Aria

(IT'S BECAUSE YOU ASKED THAT STUPID QUESTION!!!) Allen said angrilly...

(Sigh...I'll ask the next questions...)- Allen


"Ok...Now, moving onto the next question... Ahem! Which Nation is she from??? " Allen Asked


"Well...She's an Asian...and quite cute..." Edward said as he slowly tries to hide his embarrassed face


(Nobody asked you if she's cute or not, yet...) Allen said in his mind with an 'I Don't Care At All' written all over his face...


(Huh?...)-Aria


(It's nothing...)-Allen


Allen couldn't tell which of the two girls in their group is Edward talking about so he didn't run around the bush anymore and asked directly for the name...


"SOOOoooo... What's her name???" Allen said with a pissed voice


"Allen, Is there something wrong?" Their mother asked worriedly for Allen looked scary for a moment and He never had shown a face like that in front of his family before...


"Nothing! nothing, mom" Allen said as he shook his head to the sides and then, shows a face with a wide smile on his face...


"Sooo...Ahem!  What is the name of the lucky girl?"  Allen asks as he tries to shove off his family's worried face


Edward once again, blushed so hard and hides his face again...


"Well...H-Her name...Her name...name...starts with 'A'..." Edward said as he blushed more harder than before...It was as if, a pinkish red smoke grenade has blown to his face

A girl in their group that has a name that starts in 'A'... The first person that pops in his mind is Aria...

Well... it can't be helped for a boy in love thinks more of his crush. Aria is half Japanese and to add more, No one can deny that Aria could be popular to a lot of boys


Allen who doesn't know what to say and how to react, ran off to his room and spoke in a different language that he learnt while reading and some Fantasy based novels and shows...

"Sonna!!!...Mi hermano ese...!!! Wǒ gēgē yě ài shàngle wǒ ài de nǚhái..." Allen silently, shouted in different languages...

(No way!!!... My brother is...!!! My brother is also in love with the girl i love...) - Translation


Allen said this with an amazing accent to each language that he spoke...


(Allen...I'm sleepy...Let's go to sleep now...please...) - Aria talked with Allen using telepathy...


(Yeah...ok...i got it...I'll go to the bed in 10 minutes...) Allen said to Aria and hurried to head back home.


He changed into his sleep wear and went to the bed and sleep...


(Inside the dream world)


"Hey...Allen! Soo... Who is your brother's crush???" Aria asks excitedly

Allen just stood there, looking pale and soul less... Aria, Who finds it strange that the Allen that always in high and narcissistic is in down right now...


"Hey?~...Allen?...What's wrong?...Is there something up?" Aria walked towards Allen and asked him with a worried face.


"Aria...The girl that my brother's like might be you..."


Allen looked at Aria and saw her almost at the state that she turned into a stone. She was in too much shock that she don't know how to react but to just turn into a statue that had an eyes fully widen up like a tarsier.


(Aria is in too much shock that she turned into a stone!!!) -Allen said inside his mind

the things that he thinks inside the dream won't reach Aria for it is how the magic in the ring works...

Allen imagined a chair and sat on it while thinking of a lot of kinds...

(Should i be happy or not? My brother found a love life but the girl that he likes is the girl that i also
like...)

(As expected of the girl that made me fall in love! So popular with the boys and even made my big brother in love! But... That would make me and my brother, Rivals... If it is only me... I have the upper hand of being chosen by Aria but...My brother is just greater than me... What if, i can't win her?)

The narcissistic Allen actually have someone he look up too...And that is his big brother. Allen was in up and downs as he thinks this stuffs... tho, he still have the time to be still narcissist.


The time passed by in the dream world and the two of the have already woken up.

Allen is very stressed, first thing in the morning. This is the first time that he had encountered a big thing that made him this worn out...

Allen and Aria is once again, in a sync. The two of them woke up at the same time, Washed their face at the same time, Ate at the same time, and Brushed their teeth..

Allen was about to leave for school but, Edward stopped him and talked to him regarding to the girl that he likes...

"Can you do your big bro a favor?" Edward asks Allen

"What is it? Bro?..." Allen said as he turn around towards Edward

Edward was shocked to see that his little brother who is always smiling to start the day with a very good start, is looking pale and worn out...He had no energy at all.


"What's wrong Allen?" Edward asks his little brother, worriedly

"I just had a nightmare...That's all..." Allen answered

"You sure?"-Edward

Allen nodded in response...

"Anyways...I want...Your help to...Get closer...with A...Ar..." Edward was nervous and embarrassed at the same time when he asked a favor to Allen...

"With Aria?" Allen continued after Edward

"Yes! Yes! with Ar- Huh?"- Edward was shocked with what Allen said to him...

"Wait! WAIT!! WAIIIT!!! I think that there is a misunderstanding!!!..." Edward frantically said...

"Huh?... What do you mean?" Allen asked as he was full of confusion

"The one that I like is A…Ar…Arlene" Edward confessed as he blushed once again…

"Huh??? I Thought that you liked Aria!!!"

"HUHHH??? No i don't!!!...But i thought that you liked Aria instead??? " Edward said

"HUHHHHHHH??? HOW DID YOU KNOW THAT???" Allen asks as he was full of surprise

"YOU'RE SOO OBVIOUS YOU ALWAYS LOOK AT HER AND UTTER HER NAME IN YOU ROOM!!!" Edward Shouted

Their parents suddenly showed up upon hearing  a shocking and wonderful news

"Our Youngest Also Has Someone he likes???" Their mother asked, hyped up

"So...Who is the lucky girl???" Their father happily asked

Edward was about to utter a word but Allen looked at him with a deadly stare that says:

"Say Aria's name and i'll expose your crush and your embarrassing childhood times!!!"

"Ohhh...Allen's crush is a friend of my crush. But we won't tell their names...Were off now!" Edward said with a smirk as the brothers set off for school

Their parents watched their back as they talk about their sons

"They really took their handsomeness from me..." Their father said

"What foolishness are you saying???Their popularity came from me!!!" Their mother said

Now we know where Allen's narcissism came from...Edward might also be the same .

Allen agreed to help Edward in getting close to Arlene... Allen also told to Aria the truth and that made Aria felt at ease...

Aria is still not in ready to think of any possibility of starting a new romantic life for her. Allen who knew it from just a gaze, felt down and somehow sad... He is hesitating if he should give it a try to be in a relationship with Aria or just to stay the way they are now...
