"And where do you think you're going?" His footsteps echoes as he approaches me.
"I'm going to school of course" I smile at him fixing my glasses.
"Look Sylvia. You were really sick last week, I thought I was gonna lose you. Can't you just wait till next week?"
I sigh putting my palm on my chest. "Awwn Jud, didn't think you cared." I pat his shoulder
"Don't worry, I'm perfectly fine" I get where he's coming from.
On the second day of our field trip, I grew extremely cold and sick but everyone said that my body was on fire. The only thing I remember was being caught by Yohan and Isabella was surprised to see he's real.
Apparently he's the guest that led us and how he caught me was confusing plus I keep hearing his voice in my head like an obsessive girl.
"Your mother used to call me Jud everytime" he smiles, but his eyes are on a distant memory. "She'd always tease me just to get on my nerves. It started as a tease and it's her way of showing her affection to me"
The only memory I have of mum is her having green eyes with curly hair like mine, that was all. Sometimes I remember her smile and her gentle voice.
"Enough old man, I have school to go to" I wipe the lone tear sliding down my face.
"Come back early"
"I don't live here" I open the door when all of a sudden he shuts it.
"Yeah about that. Could you move back in? At least till I know you're fine." I mull over the proposal.
"I can even send Shania home for the meantime"
"No you won't" he grows speechless. "Dad, I've got to go. Bye!"
The moment I was out the door, I feel a soft cool sensation engulf my body.
Yohan.
After the little field trip fiasco I have been sensing his presence everywhere I go the cafeteria, library, and street corners.
I hate to admit but I've gotten used to it and my stupid body fluids associates it with safety and comfort.
Which makes me question my sanity and morals. I can hear him in my head and feel him on my skin– that isn't weird at all.
"Sylvia!!!" I snap out of my thoughts looking up to find both Byron and Isa gazing at me.
"What?"
"I said, Byron and I are going to this cool club downtown, wanna join" I sigh looking at my book.
"I don't know guys. I have to study, and let's not forget my house needs to be restocked and cleaned, so.." I grimace giving them my apologetic smile.
Isa smiles resting her hand on my shoulder. "Come on Sylvia, why would you want to sit alone at home studying and cleaning when you can spend the night with us"
"We promise to be by your side all night through until you reach home" Byron added. I look to their attempt of a puppy dog eyes.
"Alright fine!!" They squeal clapping. "These two" I mutter under my breath gathering my books to head to our next class.
My mind was so focused on Yohan that I didn't see anyone approaching.
"I'm sorry" I offered squatting to gather my books.
"It's nothing" he helps me, I mutter a thanks as we continue.
"Sylvia?" I look up as I stand up hitting the poor boy's head.
"Sorry" we said in unison before smiling at eachother.
"Who's this" Isa said wearily. I point to him my mouth opened then I close it.
"I'm Cole" he shakes hands with Byron. "You are?" We huff in realisation as we introduce ourselves.
"Hey Cole, we're heading downtown after school–" Isabella started
"To the Oxy club?" He interrupts. Isa nods her head ignoring all my signs. "I'm also going there tonight"
"Wonderful. We can go together" isa squeals jumping. Just then I felt the chill intensify, raking my back with it.
We all shivered and I look behind me. Not far from the window stood Yohan glaring at Cole. "Let's get out of here" I suggested dragging everyone out.
♠♠♠
"I still don't know why you did such a thing even when I signed no" I grumble picking up a pin and putting it in my hair.
Isa smiles dropping her dress on the bed before approaching me. "I just thought It'd be fun with the four of us. Besides I didn't see your sign"
"Yes you did" she nods her head saying almost immediately.
"Yes I did" I roll my eyes before picking another pin. Today's hairstyle is a half up- half down.
We quickly got ready taking pictures as we wait for Byron and Cole. Isabella wore a coffee brown club dress with a leather jacket and knee high boots, her hair down in waves.
I wore a pink leathered and sleeveless cropped vest with a black leather jeans. My hair already in a half up- half down.
After what looks like forever, Byron and Cole arrived. "Sylvia, why don't you go with Cole and I with Byron?"
"No!"
I quickly turn then remember that was Yohan in my head. I just shrug heading to his car when smoke just comes out of the car.
Cole rushes opening the bunk and ridding it of the smoke with a cough. "What's wrong with it?" I ask already having a feeling of the outcome.
"The water part just boiled and exploded" I sigh. Of course he would do that just to get what he wants.
"Let's just go in my car" Byron suggested and we all pack in there going. I look out the window as my mind process what's happening.
He said that it's not Kate Sharma. Then why is he following me? Most importantly, who is this man?
I sigh feeling stuck and I hate that feeling. I feel like I'm in the middle of solving maths equations or a puzzle but I'm nowhere near started.
What is happening to me? Why is this happening to me? Did I do something wrong in my past life? What did I do to deserve this? I wish I never entered his car.
I clear my throat ridding my mind of this rot I'm feeling. Not tonight. Tonight is about friends, party and fun.
"I'm having so much fun!!! Are you having fun?" I scream over the speakers. Two vodkas, one whiskey and a margarita later, I've never felt this loose and free.
Isa bursts out laughing at how stupid I look, not realising she looks just the same. Our faces are red and blotchy, the only thing that looks okay is our hair.
"Good to know you can handle your liquor" Cole comments touching my back.
I smile sipping my margarita before exclaiming. "Let's dance" I drag him not waiting for an answer.
I dance to the music not caring about how I looked. I put my hand on his shoulder dancing sensually when I felt that all too familiar chill
I look to the bar and there he was gazing at me with those eyes as if daring me to continue. I don't know if it's the liquid courage or just my stubborn head but I carried out with the dare.
I turn around pressing my butt plush against his groin, grinding and twisting as I look at Yohan with a sexy smile I didn't know I had.
Cole turns me around looking at me with hunger and lust. I continue dancing oblivious to the situation.
He forcefully grabs my waist and before I could react– he was knocked down. I gasp looking at the culprit.
Without a word, I was picked up off the floor and draped on his shoulder like an ornament. I protested, or at least I try to before giving up.
In the blink of an eye, I was in his car, captain Kai turns around and I wave at him with a huge smile on my face.
"Leave us" Yohan said coldly his eyes still on me.
Captain Kai nods before getting out. Yohan just kept looking at me. "What? You—" he drags me close our breaths are kissing.
With his hand still on my neck he looks at my lips his eyes black for a moment. "How we're gonna let him touch what's mine?"
He grounds out his voice unrecognisable. I visibly gulp looking at his lips my mouth watering, he looks so hot and kissable.
"What do you want Yohan?" I whisper putting my hand on his lap for support.
"I want you" I shake my head sighing.
"You can't want me" he tilts his head giving me his complete attention.
"I don't have a choice" he shifts my hair closing the gap. My chest was pressed against his.
"Do you have any idea how hard this is for me?" He groans as he drags my hand to his hard on.
I find myself asking the same question, he scoff looking out the window. "Don't you ever let another man touch you"
"Or what?" I dared looking at his eyes.
"He won't live to see the next day"
