Deal
"I need your help with starting a fake rumour" I waited and waited but didn't receive the reaction I was expecting, his expression didn't change at all and I'm not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing "go on". That's it? You're going to say go on? Well it seems this won't be such a bad thing after all. "Make it look like I have an ancient book that had many secrets about the witches and the book is always with me because... Of my powers? Yes because of my powers and I am keeping it so guarded. It's only when I'm alone that I dare to open it".
It's stupid I know but I believe that this is enough to lure whoever it is that is a traitor to me once they see me go to a secluded place I'll be able to trap them. It could work "okay it's not a hard thing to do I will help you but a few things need to change in what you told me" why should some things change, his job will be to only spread it. I was about to reject what he said but then I told myself to wait and hear what he had to say.
"It's just too direct, instead of saying an ancient book about the witches, say it's an ancient book about all races, shifters, witches and even the vampires are in it. There, there are secrets about each race that those races aren't aware of and it appears to you because of your powers. How's that?" It's even better and less suspicious since it isn't just about the witches it's a better version of mine. I really made the right decision choosing Damian" it's perfect so can you do it?", " it is doable but you'll be owing me a favour in the future " I nodded without hesitation. " I'm thinking I'm not allowed to know the reason why you're doing this right? That's why you came to me because we aren't close right?" How did- in fact let me not bother myself to ask, it's clear that he is very smart. It makes me wonder who is smarter between him and Adrian.
"The others would make this harder than it already is for me especially Ceasar... It's not that we're not close, we're just not that close because we don't get time to be close... I guess?" , " I understand and I prefer this type of close. Just being the type of friend we are now is good for me " I nodded in understanding and I don't want to know why, I just respect the honesty.
Doing a favour is not such a hard thing and it's not like he is a bad person of some sort. The lunch break ended and we parted ways after sealing the deal with a hand shake. It was quite a hectic lunch break. The day continued and I saw something that made me proud of my actions, I saw Sera having a very loud conversation with Jacob. They wore casual smiles on the surface but something deeper was underneath. It felt so refreshing to see her so happy, to see them so happy that I started feeling single. Right there's that idiot that I'll have to talk to, that's what couples do after a fight, right? They talk it out. Anyway I'm so happy for Sera, yay my girl finally has a boyfriend!
...
It was during dinner time that I heard a knock on my door. I decided not to go to the dining hall because things are tense and I'm too happy for that. Sera wasn't here, probably in the dining hall or somewhere making out with Jacob. So the knocks on the door made me suspect that it was Ceasar. "It's not locked" it's not locked? Like is that really the best you can do Dintle, you should've said it's open or come in. The door opened and Ceasar walked in wearing pajamas just like me, I couldn't help but blurt out "you look so adorable!" He really does, it's like he is this big teddy bear perfect for hugging and cuddling. " I prefer handsome but thank you", "well you are both" I really liked this calm and beautiful atmosphere but I noticed that he has yet to approach me.
"About what happened at the library I want to admit that I was wrong, although I don't fully understand why you did what you did it doesn't mean I should act like a jerk or try to overpower you in any kind of way and...
Please don't ever say or think that I only see you as a maid in fact I had completely forgotten about that... aspect. I admire, care and love you for who you are, I don't care about anything else but you so please forgive me. Having you mad at me for half a day has been horrible" this was actually our first fight as a couple and it was so intense I don't want us to have a second one. I simply opened my arms wide which meant I wanted a hug, he didn't waste even a second and with a small smile on his face we shared our first hug as a couple. I felt so safe and secure in his arms that I was sad and a bit disappointed when he pulled away.
"Baby does this mean you forgive me?" B-baby? Right that's what we should be calling each other now that we're dating but it's something that I'll have to get used to. It felt quite nice hearing it coming from his mouth. " Yeah I forgive you B-Ahem..." Nope not happening, at least not yet, no it's so awkward saying it and I know he noticed my discomfort and it amused him. Although my bed wasn't too big I shifted leaving a gap for him to squeeze in.
Something has been bugging me for quite some time now and I feel like this is the right time to ask " when are you going to kiss me?" I think his saliva got stuck in his throat because he started coughing. "Wow (cough) I wasn't expecting that (cough) you were so direct but if my baby wants it then I'm willing to give", "I never said I wanted it I'm just asking cause you used to be a player and should've done this long ago but you haven't. Why?" He scratched his head not expecting me to call him a player.
" I didn't know that you saw me as a player but I guess what you're trying to ask is what's so different about you?" I nodded because it was bothering me a little " you're different and I think everyone knows whether they like you or not. You're not just some girl you're unique and beautiful but unlike most beautiful things you don't break. You're like a diamond, you don't try to shimmer like gold to be seen. So of course I'm going to be different when with you." I should've melted when hearing him say this but I was nervous because while saying this his face inched closer and closer until...
