Chapter 28: BAB 28

When I woke up in the morning, I turned to the person next to me and smiled. Saint...the sunlight reflected his handsome face so I couldn't stop being amazed by his face. He is handsome.

I was about to stand up when Saint hugged me tighter. I looked at him again and sighed, Saint is clingy if you ask me. Instead of getting up, I lay down on his bed again and stared at his handsome face.

"Quit staring, baby.." I heard him say. I just laughed at what Saint said and at the same time as I laughed, he opened his eyes.

And there I saw his beautiful red and brown eyes. His eyes were wide and it was obvious that he had just woken up.

"Clea?"

"Hmm?"

"Do you like me?" I just fell in love with Saint, since last night he kept asking me if I like him. Why is this guy ready for art?

"I kept saying that last night..." I hid the annoyance in my voice. He sighed and closed his eyes for a little time and opened them again.

"I just can't believe it...I thought everything was just a dream." He said gently. Am I hearing everything right? I can't just deal with Saint's cuteness.

"Yes, that's all true." He immediately turned to me because of what I said. He sat on the bed holding his forehead.

"Damn you sound so cute when you say it," He said shaking his head. I just sat on the bed and couldn't stop laughing at what Saint said.

"Stop acting cute, Saint," I said with a laugh, I saw him wince as he closed his eyes.

"Baby, stop...you're making my heart feel weird." He was almost out of breath while saying that.

"Yes, baby whatever." I will tease him.

But I was very surprised when he suddenly pushed me onto the bed and cornered me while pinning both of my hands beside my head. He is on top of me, oh my god!

He was grinning at me now as he brought his face closer to mine. I tried my best to keep my eyes open and just stared at his beautiful face.

He smiled at me and applied his lips to mine. My previously open eyes were immediately closed because of the strange feeling Saint was making me feel. Saint's kisses went deeper I couldn't help but bite his lower lip because he was getting too passionate.

His lips left mine and traveled through my neck. He nipped and nibbled one spot on my neck before he sat back on the bed. I immediately sat down and caught my breath.

"Should I consider that as a good morning kiss?" He said with a smile, I just fell on him and stood up on the bed. He followed me and couldn't get the smile off his face.

"What?" I asked bluntly.

"Hickey looks good on you." My eyes went round because of what he said, I rushed to the bathroom and immediately looked at my neck. And there I saw a red mark, a freaking kiss mark!

"Saint!!" I screamed in annoyance.

"Hurry up, baby, we might be late!" I heard him shout but the annoyance in his voice was still obvious.

How can I hide it? I can't wear a scarf at school! Very hot. Damn Saint, what's on your mind?

After getting ready, I went down to the dining hall, it's really good that I know how to do makeup and I'm still covered with the kiss mark that the animal put on me. When I got down I was surprised to see Pierce sitting at the dining table too, I thought he had come home last night.

Savienna, on the other hand, is not in her right mind because she just stares into nothingness and doesn't move her food. Sister Mary went to work early because she said there was an emergency.

I saw Saint casually looking at my neck and laughed softly. Annoying! Whatever comes to his mind! So I sat down in my seat and started eating.

"Hellion, Patrick Sudalga is furious. He sent me some threats, last night." I was immediately nervous. What if Psalm is the enemy? Is it true what Mommy said to me? But...Psalm's kindness feels so real to me.

"What kind of threats?" I heard Saint's serious question.

"He said we better hide because in no time he will attack us." I was even more nervous.

"He can't do that, I will be fighting thirteen mafia bosses later at midnight. He can't be risky." Right... There's a fight going on tonight at midnight in the underground. And I couldn't help but worry about Saint again.

I know Saint is strong, but with that many mafia bosses? Those mafia bosses are also trained, they are not just Saint's enemies.

"About that, Manzo is offering help." Manzo? Who is Manzo?

"He offered to protect the heiress too. He said there is a mansion that you can move to because it is too dangerous if you stay here." I immediately looked up at Saint and saw that he was seriously listening to Pierce.

"Where?" Saint asked.

"In Antique." antique? The Visayas? That's too far. We are in Cavite, very far from Antique.

"If you move, you will leave Akademi High. And, you can't go to school anymore. Many people know that you are at Akademi High. You can consider this as your last week." I was immediately sad. Maybe I will never really have a happy life.

"I'll accept his offer." Saint's words made my heart sink. Maybe Odette and I will never get along. I only have three days left in Akademi High.

"Antique is far," Pierce said.

"I don't care if we go to another country or another planet. As long as it's keeping my baby safe and away from danger."

No Saint, because no matter what you do, I will be found and will still be found by people who want to end me.

***

All day I thought about what Saint said. If we move house, Odette will have to greet us when I leave here. I can't leave without getting along. But I'm not sure if they will talk to me...

I don't know why Savienna did that... is she annoyed with me? But what he did was terrible and he immediately turned my only friends away from me. Should I be angry at her? But I felt sorry for her condition, Mother's visit made her lose her mind.

I'm afraid that I'll trigger something inside her and be a psycho again. I sighed. Maybe I'll just wait a few more days to talk to Savienna and Odette. Psalm ignored me the whole day, and I don't even want to discuss anything with him. I don't want to believe that he is one of those who want to end me, he's been a great guy and he accompanied me when I'm lonely.

"Hey baby, you're spacing out.." I looked back at Saint who was now frowning and staring at me.

Because we are here today at the library, it's free time. And this is the first time I can be with Saint inside the campus. It's really good that there aren't many visitors to the library and nobody sees us today.

"Sorry, Saint. I am just thinking about something..." I said weakly. He nodded at me and stared at his laptop again.

I looked at my book again and continued what I was reading. But I couldn't understand what I was reading because I thought again about Saint's match tonight. That made my heart clench immediately. my eyes watered.

I don't care if I am too emotional but Saint is making me super worried. I just sobbed and saw Saint's head immediately lift from me and he quickly went to my side.

"What is happening, baby? Why are you crying? Did something happen?" He asked confused while staring at me, I looked at him and I couldn't stand it anymore so I went closer to him and hugged him very tightly.

I know he was surprised by what I did but he immediately hugged me back and caressed my hair.

"What happened huh? Why did you suddenly cry?" Saint asked me.

"I'm worried about you Saint...what if something happens to you later? I don't want you gone, Saint.." I said between my sobs. He chuckled a bit.

I heard a few knocks on the door so l stood up and opened the door. Savienna's face immediately greeted me. What is she doing here?
