*Destry's Point of View*

The pure childishness of the situation was inevitable. The lopsided goofy grins on The twins faces, Des's Disheveled Green hair.

A wreck.

Asher and Emelia certainly musnt think fondly of us.

I eye our group, as they throw back dares and truths.

I roll my eyes, arms wrapped tightly across my legs, and gaze out the window into the bleak night.

I choose not to indulge myself in their childish endeavors, simply because I am not a child.

Mentally, at the least.

Adolescent activity seizes to amuse me, only displeases.

Let them have their fun. I think, bitterly.

I turn to gaze at the five of them sitting on the King-sized bed nearest to me.

I met Emelia's eyes, and for a brief few seconds, we held our Gazes at one another.

An electric current dazzled itself through my veins, spontaneously errupting into my system.

She gave a warm, gentle smile.

I felt myself warm, and returned with a small wave.

Turning away, I sigh.

What the hell is wrong with me...?

Its been a mere six hours I've known the damned girl.

I shouldn't see her the way I do. We've had a hastily two conversations, and even then, those contained a total of maybe eight sentences.

No, this isn't supposed to go like this.

I mentally smack myself, my subconscious crossing his arms, shaking his head disapprovingly.

I think too much.

Then again, this assures any mistakes.

I bring my face to my delicatley fringed, lime hair, and tug gently at the bangs feathering my forehead.

I needed to get myself in check, soon.

Besides, look at her...

I briefly glance at her, her sweet tender smile radiated around her, her laugh a perfect harmony.

What wasn't to like?

OhI dont know, the fact she's practically a stranger? The devilish subconious sneers.

I roll my eyes. Fair point, well played.

But who would want someone like me...?

A gloomy, arrogant, antisocial unprioritized mere adolescent, who can barely sustain his own life, let alone the weight of a relationship?

Who am I kidding.

NO ONE WOULD.
