Brooke's POV

This guy dares to tease me Atrocious! And to top it off he calls me adorable. What! I'm a badass who graffiti's walls, vandalized properties and even lied on government documents about my age. Kids do not try this at home.

I chased him through the premises for his phone. He just kept laughing which I would have considered radiant under different circumstances now its just plain annoying. "Stop this instant Lucius Lestrange or I swear- "Or what is tiny you going to do to me" he dared while poking my forehead.

OH THAT IS IT!!

I pounced him and took his phone. I hastily took out the memory card- "Okay! Stop! I will delete it" he said with his hands in the air. "How am I supposed to believe you?" I said "Have a bit of faith in me?" he said. I just glared at him

I was about to break the memory when he tripped me. I was about to hit the floor for sure but I felt two arms around by head sheltering my head from the fall.

We were stuck in that position for about five second which felt like minute to me when-"Umm I'm sorry to interrupt you guys but the animal's visitation hours ended and its time they slept" the worker said.

I'm sure that I'm blushing again damn this pale skin this is why I wear a hoodie at all time. I pushed his arm off and apologized to the staff. "Let's go" I dragged him outside and wore my hoodie. "Hey!" "what!" I asked.

"Get in its almost midnight and unlike someone I'm not a night owl" he said.

Lucius POV

She sure is quiet. Well she is usual quiet when we are in the car. She was sticking her hand outside the window while faintly smiling. She then suddenly turned to me and asked "Hey does your car do that thing where the top part folds back you know" I flicked a button and the top hood folded.

"Whoa~" she then stood sitting on the head rest with her arms up. "Hey be careful!" I shouted which was ignored by her completely. "I have always wanted to do this since I saw it on Perks of being a wallflower. It looked fascinating in my eyes" she said.

"Feeling the air pass through your fingers and hair in the dead of night when there is no one around. Its exhilarating~" she whispered into the wind. I don't know why but I feel at peace when she is like this carefree and unfiltered.

"Hey do you have auto pilot in this thing?" she asked me ducking her head in. "Yeah why?" I said with a small grin playing on my face as her hair was all over the place. "Then come out after putting it on" she shouted.

"Come on fast~" she said pulling my hand. I put it on auto pilot and came out.

The feeling of the wind softly brushing my face as I go against it feels a...bit encouraging to say the least. I turned to see her smiling at me which I returned subconsciously. The feeling she is emitting from that smile is something that held a lot of depth in them it seemed.

We both returned to our seats feeling exhausted. I saw her looking out the window so I just focused on driving. "Hey! we reached so get off. I have to park this" I told her for which I got no response. No it can't be right?

I gently turned her face to see to that she was sleeping. why does she keep sleeping whenever she is with me I parked the car and carried her bridal style while taking her bag. We passed the hallway when I saw Cole who was probably going to sleep.

He just made a face which I think means oh ho what is happening here? I just rolled my eyes at him. I went up the stairs and to another hallway

Seriously she weights less then what she is supposed to weight for her height.

I put her on her bed and covered her up. I looked at her and tucked some of her messy hair from her face I couldn't help it. She started to search for something under the comforter and what she pulled out almost made me burst out laughing.

A carrot plushie, a fricking carrot plushie the way she just snuggled with it with her brows in a frown.

Click~ saving this for later.

While he doesn't know that even Brooke has a photo of him sleeping. Shush~

Brooke's POV

I woke up on my bed?

I must have fallen asleep again why do I feel at peace with him? I usually can't sleep around other people. Ahhhh! This is confusing as hell I can't really be in love with him right? I pulled my hair in frustration.

"This is just a crush something all girls have. yes, this is crush, this is a crush" I repeated. "Brooke burns wake up!!" he knocked at my door. Speak of the devil. "yeah yeah~" I said and got ready. I feel like I'm forgetting something.

I went down wearing my black hoodie with a black undershirt and black jeans. Yes I could be mistaken for a shadow if not for my skin tone that makes me look like a dead person. He was drinking tea like always

"He was probably a nobleman in his past life" I muttered.

I took the coffee on the table nothing can beat a good cup of coffee in the morning. Then I remembered "The bet I completely forgot about it!" I said to myself. "What bet?" he asked me nibbling on his biscuit. "Later!" I shouted as I took my bag and sprinted off.

As I made it to the college I saw a grinning Mother hen with bags in his hands.

"You lost the bet Burns time to pay the price~" he said in eerie way. "Shit" was all I could say before Mother hen dragged me somewhere I saw some of the girls from our faculty. Shit!

Lucius POV

She just sprinted off before I could even say a word. What's her problem? And what bet? I thought as I finished my biscuits. I made my way to the parking lot and choose the car I was going to drive. I went to park the car in my parking lot.

I saw that that guy that was always with her pulling some girl out. I was shocked out of my mind.

"Mother hen this is too pastel!!" said the girl. "well~ you lost the bet and now I have full control of your wardrobe for a whole day. Besides you look good with a little color" he teased her.

"A little color!!" she argued. She turned and it really was her.

She was wearing a baby blue jumper and pastel purple shorts with white shocking and pink sneakers. She even had on a blonde wig on with two stars drawn on one cheek.

I just stood there processing what I had just witnessed.

Brooke wearing pastel. Brooke Burns the living proof that being goth is not just a phase but a lifestyle is wearing pastel.

I saw the other students wondering who she was while some of them were just taking a picture of it. I saw the tip of her ears redden as she pulled that guy and went off to her faculty while the guy was laughing his hat off.

-the outfit she wore~
