Mrs.

I gasped for air when we reached the forest. It looks like we even stopped in the middle.

Why do we always go to the jungle?

Should I get used to it?

Wait, what's a habit? I will stay away from him. But didn't he say that you are not allowed to come here? So maybe it's still possible.

"We're not gonna do it."

What?

Did I think he agreed to my wish?

Did he change his mind?

Why did he change his mind? I thought it was okay.

I was hopeful and excited.

But I can't do anything if he doesn't want to. I won't force him. Who am I to force him to do something he doesn't want?

I will respect his decision but I will never avoid him.

Whatever happens, because it might fall on me.

It's better that way. At least it's not forced to happen so there's no need to force it.

I sighed.

"It's okay if you don't want to do it, Asmo. I'm not forcing you, it's just a wish. Just maybe."

I don't want to beg for it. I mean yes, I'm desperate but I should know better.

"No. I will fulfill your wish but not now."

My eyebrows raised.

"What?"

What is Asmo saying? So will he continue? But not just now? Is what I heard right? Or I'm going deaf because all I can hear is my heartbeat.

Maybe that's why I can't hear anything else.

"I want it to come naturally, Adra. You can't just do it without anything. It's your first, I want it to be good for you but without intimacy it's nothing."

Aww…

Asmodeus is so sweet!

I still thought it was what it was, I thought I would never be able to fulfill my dream, but here he is and makes it even better for me.

If we didn't have an agreement, I would think that he would like me too! The agreement is that I will avoid him.

He still knows intimacy.

And he said he wanted something special!

This grumpy vampire is so sweet!

"So you want me to crave the anticipation?"

"You should learn to wait Adra."

"I waited long enough for you Asmo. I feel like I was born for you. Do you know that? Like I was brought up here and the world decided that I should be yours."

"You read too many novels."

"Who knows I might write our love story."

"It's not even love–"

"It can be! There's a lot of possibilities for Asmo. An angel and a vampire."

He laughed a little. "You are the angel?"

I glared at him.

"Who else?"

"I don't see an angel," he said, "Only an annoying vampire."

I rolled my eyes.

This one really likes to get pissed off too!

"Vampire huh? It's my thing, isn't it?" I teased him.

"No," He said.

Thank you He doesn't even want to admit it!

I know that I look good in a vampire costume no matter what he says. That's why I tricked the other vampires. Because I look exactly like them.

*******

I can't help but smile at my thoughts while walking towards the school gate.

Asmo wants it to happen naturally.

He's really a gentle vampire, isn't he?

"Adra!"

I turned to the person who called my name. I saw Alta running in my direction.

I was just going to our meeting spot and we met right away.

I waited for her to reach where I stood.

"What happened to you?"

I raised my eyebrows.

"What happened?" I asked.

"Why did you disappear last night? I told you I would just get drinks when I came back, but it wasn't there right away. The people I asked didn't even know. Then Brenda and Vlad looked like idiots! They said nothing but insults. I'm just going to ask. I looked for you everywhere, I went around the whole mansion!" she said.

How can he get around the mansion? It is not possible to go up to the second floor if no one takes you there.

Wait, did she go upstairs?

But how come she is still here?

I should have known better! I really should have returned to him last night, just in case Asmo didn't let me.

He said they don't like someone annoying.

Probably before these vampires bit Alta, they were bored or overwhelmed by the amount of talk. Just now what Alta said was really bad.

But I can pick up everything she is saying because I just like her! We speak at the same speed and the same phase that's why I know what she's saying.

Asmo seems to be right because Alta is okay and almost ready with energy and a lot of stories. He even asked Brenda and Vlad just to find me.

I feel guilty because I left him. Because I have no choice, maybe when I go back to the party it will be the end of me and Asmo. I don't want that to happen. Also, it looks like Asmo wants to be with me for a long time and he just doesn't want to admit it!

He was still ashamed of me.

Why is he shy with me?

Between the two of us I'm the most perverted one, so maybe that's why he's not shy. He is not used to a girl like me, or a human like. I wonder if he ever dated a vampire before... How did it go?

Or did he ever date a human?

There's a lot of pretty girls in the world for the past few years so it's impossible for him not to get smitten by one.

"Hey Adra! What happened to you? Did the aliens get you?"

"Almost possessed by a vampire last night." Shit!

I closed my eyes tightly realizing what was said. But it's true, almost.

Almost!

That's what they say so close yet so far.

But it's all for good. We can't force each other to make love if we are not in love, as obviously as it is.

He has a good point, we should let it happen naturally. So I can still be with him while we are waiting for the right time.

"Huh? What are you talking about? Are you really okay? I got tired of looking for you and then what are you talking about? I was so worried! Because I was worried about you, I even went to the forest to look for you because I know my favorite place it. I don't even know why the jungle is your favorite place! You're amazing! It's so dark! I could barely see anything and then I was attacked by something! Because I was wearing a fox costume, I thought I was an animal! It's like my soul separated from my body in fear because of you!"

I close my eyes and open them.

What did she say?

"Wait, calm down Alta. I know we're at the same speed in talking but slow down. That is a lot of information to take in. How did you even say that without stopping?"

Damn, Alta can be a rapper at this point. She speaks faster than I thought she could.

"Powers! Then I'm annoyed with you! It's because you left me!" he said. Her forehead is wrinkled and her lips are pouting.

"You always leave me alone! You can't even look for me if I'm already lost in the jungle!"

"What are you saying Alta? I'll turn the jungle upside down just for you! You didn't turn the jungle upside down for me because you didn't find Asm and me--" my mouth closed as I realized what I said to her yes.

"What? What are you talking about? Who? So you were really with someone yesterday?"

"N-no!" Fuck shit.

How can I get through this?

I want to tell Alta everything that I know. I want to share it with here she is my friend she is the only one who's gonna believe me. Well be contemplated believing me but still she will believe me in the end because she knows that I don't lie that much and I would never go that far just to lie.

"Wait, what happened to you first? I want to know. But let's go in first and the guard is already looking at us badly," I said to her and pulled her inside.

Because we were both blocking the entrance of the school, maybe the guard was angry and was just too lazy to scold us because he was going to stand up.

When we were sitting in the park, Alta continued what she was saying earlier.

"Okay, tell me slowly alright," I said to her as we put our bags on the table.

"That's it, when I came back it wasn't there, because I found some nesfruta, I was going to ask you if that's all you wanted. Then poof! You're gone. I'm not sure if I saw you with a girl before that It's like you, go up to the second floor. That's the case, isn't it forbidden to go up there? I don't know if I'm delirious or maybe I've overdosed on Nesfruta."

I swallowed.

It's not Nesfruta that's making her delirious. I want to tell her that because its true. She saw me with Silvana last night!

It's a good thing he didn't go upstairs because he was safe.

"It's a shame you didn't see Lorcan! Hays Adra! Lorcan's pogi? Even though he's a little older, I'm still Jojowain! Never totropahin!" Alta said, still writhing in excitement.

Her cheeks flushed.

My eyes widened with what she said.

How did he see Lorcan if their party was upstairs?

Did he go downstairs to look for a prey?

And it looks like they even met Alta!

"He's even wearing a Thor outfit! I'm just not sure if his hair is dyed because it really looks like a natural blonde! What a bummer!"

What?!

But that doesn't look like the Lorcan that I met last night. If so, who did they meet Alta?

"Really? Does he have long hair? Like Kay harry styles used to have?"

"Yes, still blonde."

"What eye color, green?"

"Yes! How did you know? Did you see it too? What's wrong?"

The features are the same but he is not blonde at all. He is also wearing a vampire outfit.

But he can wrap clothes right away but it doesn't seem to match.

"Then the tattoo on his neck is hot! I don't even know what it is. I didn't get too close to it because Brenda looks like she doesn't have a boyfriend if she shakes hands with Lorcan! Oh, if only you had seen it last night!"

My brows furrowed.

A tattoo?

As far as I remember, Lorcan doesn't have a tattoo.

I closed my eyes tightly.

I'm so confused!

So who is the real Lorcan? Or maybe Alta just saw an impostor because he said he was quite old, and the Lorcan I met was young, like our age.

But somehow I can't trust Altas description. He said he drank too much Nesfruta but still turned his face away from Kendra.

"Are you sure that you really saw Lorcan last night?"

"Yes."

"Maybe not?"

"Hey, I really saw it! Even though I drank a lot of Nesfruta! It really helped! Because it made me feel even fresher! It's like Kendra!"

"Tsk! Drink more because you look like your father, even more distant than Kendra!" I teased.

"Atlis someone looks like you! You Adra are just fooling me so you can't talk! What happened to you? I almost died last night! I still remember what you said that you saw a vampire in the forest because it looked like a vampire. I don't know who attacked me! As soon as we looked at each other, I suddenly ran as if I was burned by my beauty."

"What?" I asked Alta laughing.

I don't mean to laugh at the terrible thing that happened to her, she almost got attacked but what did she say in the end?

"Gaga yes! It's like cheating!" She said.

"You're the one who's joking Alta!'

"I'm not joking! I fucky swear."

"You're using it too huh?" I teased.

"Yes! I already used your fucky fucky, so I'm telling the truth! It's weird!"

"Fine! Maybe I was really fascinated by your beauty. Or scared of your costume."

Jokes aside. Alta is beautiful. She also has a unique beauty. I don't know why nesfruta still wants to bloom, it's already beautiful!

She was about to ask me one more time why I left the party when the bell rang.

She did nothing but take the equipment and went up to she classroom. Didn't get to say goodbye to me. It immediately passed because their first subject was the terror prof. If you are late for one second, you will be absent for the whole semester.

It's a ridiculous way to make the students attend the class and not be tardy.

I have also arranged my things. Fortunately, I was able to avoid Alta's question. But how long can I avoid His question?

I sighed.

This is so hard.

How can I say what I went through without actually telling her the truth?

After I fixed my bag, I walked down the hallway to the classroom.

I stopped walking when I noticed the familiar woman. It was standing near the boys bathroom as if waiting for someone.

I took a few steps forward to see who the girl was. My eyes squinted when I saw Layla.

What is she doing there? Who is she waiting for in the boys bathroom?

Wait, is she waiting for a lover in the bathroom?

Damn, I didn't know she's that naughty!

I'm used to her banging herself on someone's shoulder but don't like this!

I squeezed myself into the big fake plant decoration on the side so that He wouldn't notice that I was watching him.

I smiled as I watched her wait patiently.

It's like I'm watching a movie where they did something wrong or they are about to.

I'm not this nosy but I'm really curious because Layla is a strange girl. I want to know why is she there when she's supposed to be in her room just like me but here I am wanting to know who is the guy.

The guy finally came out!

I squint my eyes to get a better look.

Alright, Layla, who are you waiting for?

My smile faded when my eyes saw who it was.

I can't be mistaken.

Even if I'm far from them I knew his face and his gun mental eyes...

Looking at her.
