Chapter 104 The Dress

The girls burst laughing... what's funny?

"Done laughing?" I asked and they all turned silent but they keep on biting their inside cheeks. "Tch. I'm out of here."

"Come back here tonight for a makeover okay?" Drena reminded me still grinning.

I ignored her and closed the door. I immediately go straight to Xenon's room.

"Oh, hi Claire! What's up?" Coby smiled as he passes me in the hallway but I ignored him and continue walking towards Xenon's room.

When I got in front of his room, his door suddenly opened revealing the confused-looking Xenon "Claire? What's the problem?" He asked the moment he saw me approaching, my face probably be looking so serious.

I ignored him as I grabbed his wrist and dragged him until we completely got inside his room. I closed the door and pushed him on the wall, not that hard but with enough force to make him leaned on it.

"Woah! What's wrong?" He asked concerned but I leaned closer to his face.

"Make sure you'll go there for a mission. If I ever see you with some girl..." I hold his collar and pulled him closer so our faces were on the same level. "Prepare to dig a grave." He gulped but still nodded.

Days passed after the conversation with the Blue Fire Gang and yes, we sleep together at night but only sleeping and nothing more. Even with the heating tension between us, he respects me and said he is willing to wait for the time I am ready to give my love.

Love... I know what I feel towards him. But... I'm not ready to tell him... not yet. Not now... and I don't know when... I don't know if I can.

It's so difficult... telling him... will be sacrificing everything. I shouldn't act foolishly because of this... love.

"Good. It's good to set this clear." I nodded more to myself.

When I looked at his face once again... his lips formed into a grin.

"Did it bothers you?" He asked grinning.

"Bothers what?" I asked looking innocent.

"Me being with some girl." He directly stated.

"It didn't." I stepped back and when I was turning my back he suddenly grabbed my waist pulling me closer to him.

He leaned his face closer to my ears and whispered "Keep on denying but I can see the truth."

"What truth?" I asked.

Facing me, he smirked, "That your imagination is making you jealous."

I pushed him, getting out from his hold "I'm not!" Upset... my voice... it was not cold nor dark from anger but purely just upset.

He grinned "See? You keep on being denial."

He sighed in defeat hearing my silence.

He couldn't make me admit that I'm jealous... and yeah, I hella am! Thinking of him with some other girls makes me mad... I want him... all by myself.

He's mine. Only mine. I sensed my eyes turned dark for a second.

He blinked and then blinked once again. "Did-did your eye changed... color?" he asked.

I froze for a moment but he did not sense my reaction because of the curiosity that dominated his essence "You might just be hallucinating right now." I covered up.

He took a deep breath "Probably." He stated and hold my hand. "I am yours Claire and I will never fall for any girl other than you. You have my heart... keep it, as long as I'm alive. I hope... I'm the only one who made it, into your heart." He softly said.

I can feel the tingles that made the fireworks into my entire system... this guy keeps on hunting all my organs to work so crazy.

"If I will let someone invade my heart, there is no one... except you." I bite my lower lip not expecting the words that came out of my mouth.

He smiled "That's my girl." And he pulled me into a tight hug... I hugged him back.

This is my man. I sighed in contentment and smiled.

"Girls! Make it fast, we're late!" Martin yelled on the door.

"Finish!" Cassy clapped while looking at her finishing touch on my face. She's beautiful with her aqua blue miniskirt dress that absolutely shows her perfect body. But one thing I know for sure, Coby wouldn't like it because her cleavage is visible.

"Cassy... that is sooo wonderful!" Jenna said in surprise. She's already wearing a golden dress that fit her curve and beauty.

"Claire! You're gorgeous!" Stella exclaimed. She looks much cuter today, with her eyeglasses, pink skirt, and white tank top.

"I bet Xenon wouldn't try to look at any girl except this beautiful lady." Drena smiled at me which made her more gorgeous with her red tube dress that perfectly shows her curve. Her small eyes made her more attractive especially when she smiles.

"You look like the coolest girl in town!" Cassy cheered.

I looked at the mirror and gasp. Who is this girl facing me?

She looked fierce than ever... the make-up perfectly fit my plain emotion.

Cassandra is a pro artist.

"See? Cassy made a great masterpiece today." Drena stated while looking at me through the mirror with a smile on her face.

I stand up ruining my daydream, I know these days will end and I'll be back to my reality. To my own world... the dark world.

"Let's go. The boys can't wait any longer." I stated while walking towards the door.

"Thank God! It's been ages- Woah!" Martin exclaimed the moment I opened the door. "Claire... you're..." He shook his head. "I don't know how Xenon would handle this." He murmured all of a sudden.

But I ignored him and stopped. "Oh, I forgot something in my room. I'll be back immediately." I said to Drena who has just followed me from behind.

She nodded and I went to Xenon's room that also became my room and took some marbles from my bag. I took it last time from the Tarre's Mansion. "This could be enough," I murmured to myself.
