Ella’s POV
It’s been a week since Edward and Deborah came, they mostly hanged around in their room but mom said they had to go to school, life had been the same since they came, we’ve actually never talked after that day. Today was the Monday so, Ed and Debby were tagging along with me till they get the hang of coming to and fro from school. We were currently in my car as I droove in silence no one bothered to talk, I looked in my review mirror to see what they were doing, it looked like they communicating without speaking.
Oh twin communication?
That’ll be so cool, at least that’s would explain why they almost never talked even to each other. After a few minutes, the school popped up, I packed before coming down Ed and Debby followed suit
‘So guys, just go to your tour guide and we’ll meet here in the afternoon, we don’t talk before so it’ll be better we maintain that in school’. I said walking away, I’m in my usual attire so I don’t want to ruin their social life before it even began. Mark called earlier to inform me that he was sick, so guess I’ll be lonely today.
It was still a few minutes till our first class so I headed to my locker but before I got there I was thrown into a locker by Red, I was actually expecting it, I mean this was the only chance she could get since Mark wasn’t around.
Edward’s POV
I ignored the tour guide walking towards my locker 216, I wasn’t exactly dumb, I could actually figure out where my locker was. As I was walking, I suddenly notice Ella being thrown towards the locker. I was going to walk away but I felt a sudden urge to protect her, I ignored it and turned to walk in the other direction probably to find Debby and the guide but I suddenly was struck with pain, I felt like I was burning, I turned back to Ella to see a red headed girl slapping her face, she was about to remove Ella hoodie when I felt myself running to Ella and taking Red’s hand away.
I felt like I was manipulated, controlled, the pain was still much but I couldn’t scream that I was burning.
‘Who are you?’ The red headed girl asked, she was actually flustered maybe because of my beauty.
‘Her Servant’ I said without much thought my voice hoarse, The red headed girl and others around her were baffled but I couldn’t be least bothered, I was burning inside out, I wanted to cry but I held my hand tightly.
‘He’s my cousin, not my servant……. A slip of the tongue’ Ella said holding her hoodie tightly, she held my hands suddenly and walked away hurriedly, the most surprising thing is my body cooled immediately when she held me.
She’s the cause of it.
After walking a safe distance from the red headed girl, she let it go.
‘What the fudge did you just do?’ she asked angrily, I leaned back and smirked like I wasn’t  just in pain a minute ago.
‘She was about to remove your hoodie, I’m surprised how no one had done that up till now, god knows how you pack it that it’s not swelling’. I replied, she smiled a little before frowning back.
‘YouTube’ she replied like that answered her question, I didn’t know what YouTube but I didn’t ask.
‘So who was she?’ I asked curious
‘She’s my best friend’s ex girlfriend, he broke up with a week ago, I still wonder why they were a perfect fit’. She said walking, I followed without knowing why
‘That’s because he likes you’. I said bluntly, Ella looked taken back before shaking her head
‘Nah, I’ve known him since I was ten, he’s like a brother’. She replied chuckling nervously, something tells me she guessed as much but ignored it.
‘Better not say that to him when he finally fesses up to tell you, brother zoning hurts more, tell him that you don’t want to make your relationship awkward, it’ll hurt less’. I advised, the bell rings and Ella panicked probably not wanting to be late to class
‘What do you have now?’ she asked
‘English’
‘Let’s go’.
