Chapter 48

"This is beautiful!" I was beyond delighted while showing our pictures one by one. Saint was busy driving home. He just turned to me a little and then smiled for a moment. "But maybe it would be better if your real face and my real face were here. There, my smile suddenly disappeared, and I felt a little sad. I knew that I had not escaped the Saint's sight, but I still chose to smile. "It's okay, at least we know we're together here. That's the most important thing.

Earlier, we also bought new clothes. Saint does not want to wear Albus' clothes anymore; he wants black clothes. And I let him.

"Did you have fun with me?" That question about Saint turned my gaze back to him.

"What do you mean?"

"Gavin told me that I needed to make you happy today because that is my job as your boyfriend. You are laughing, so I think I made you happy. However, Gavin also said that human emotions are too complicated. You smile even though you are sad. That's why I'm asking you now if you're really happy. " When he said that, it was as if something touched my heart. It gives me the same rush that Saint did.There, my smile widened.

"See my eyes, babe?" He turned to me slightly before nodding. It was fast enough because he looked back at the road again. "This means I'm happy. Human lips can smile at everyone, but the eyes can't. Lips can fake happiness, but the eyes can't. Lips can lie, but eyes can't. Understand? " He smiled in response and nodded slightly. I'm happy because he understands me. I'm glad because even though I know he does not fully understand, he tries to understand me. He does everything to make me happy. He's by my side, although I know he has a lot to take care of today. Every day they need to fetch a soul, but Saint is here next to me and makes me happy, even just for today. That is the most important and valuable thing I will treasure.

To my great delight, I could not help but slightly kiss Saint's cheek. He turned to me in surprise. However, I just smiled at him as a sign of tenderness.

"Silly. " That was our last conversation before I decided to just play the car stereo and play a song. It was Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. Saint just sat there and listened to me as I sang along.

When we got out of the car, Saint immediately approached me to hold my hand. We were no longer surprised to see the light in every corner of the house. I knew very well that Gavin was inside. He is the only Grim Reaper who can't stand the darkness. For almost a week, Saint and Gavin had been living together in Wesley's mansion. Something Saint despises, but he can't do anything about it.

When we entered, Gavin immediately appeared. I was also not surprised to see that he was with three other grim reapers, with no emotion looking at me. They were sitting on the sofa while Gavin was standing in front of them.

"Hey! You're already here. " The smiling Gavin approached us quickly. That's why I smiled back. But when he finally got close to me there, I lost my smile. Especially when I hear the strange sound of the bell.

At that moment, I seemed to be shoved. I don't know if Saint felt that or what, but my heart pounded. My swallowing became continuous and my whole body went cold.

Where did that come from? Why does the bell ring again?

I did not take my eyes off Gavin as I moved my hand to reach the pocket of my pans where the sound was coming from and where I had placed the red bell the old man had given me earlier. But I got colder when I felt two bells inside my pocket.

I have an idea of what is going on, but I don't seem to want to know that. However, I dared to pick up the bell and see which one was ringing there. And I almost closed my eyes when I saw that black bell.
