Chapter 9

White light beams after opening her eyes, she had to squint her eyes. She slowly opens her eyes, finding it hard to adjust to the beaming light.

"it's good that nancy's friend was given a proper funeral." alexia said. She was finally awake. She was told that she died, for five minutes. It was a miracle for them, but it isn't for alexia.

"yeah. You know... You really scared me." max admitted, holding alexia's hand. "when they rushed you at the emergency room, they didn't come out for four hours."

"I'm sorry." alexia said. She just didn't want max to worry. She chose to go inside of byers mind. Then she realised something. "hey. What happened to the dance?" max shook her head.

"the dance hasn't happened, yet. We still got two more days until the snow ball." max smile as alexia nod. "you never told me you knew eleven."

"you never asked." it was safe to say that alexia has been smiling more often, as well as showing her real emotions.

"fair point." alexia chuckles. Max smiles, "you know. Finally hearing you laugh so freely just makes me happy." it was true, hearing her laugh makes her feel the butterflies in her stomach.

Max stands up. She leans in as alexia do the same. Their lips were an inch away from each other when the door slammed open. They jump away, looking at the door.

"sorry..." lucas slowly took the doorknob before slowly closing the door, awkwardly.

The two people in the room shared the same look before letting out a chuckle.

"you look great." alexia look up to see samuel. She looks quite suprise to see him.

"samuel? It's been a week since i last felt your presence. Where have you been?" alexia asked, fixing her bracelet.

"keeping everything control and making sure you're in control..." alexia nod, turning around to face samuel.

"thank you. Really. For helping me fight them off." samuel just gave a nod before he dissappeared into her.

"you better tell her, about us, About your powers, about your kind."

"how can i? The gods will punish me for it." alexia walk outside her room and went downstairs. She was met by jason who quickly went to her side as soon as she walked past him.

They went outside where the car was ready, just waiting for her. Jess opened the door for her and closed it as soon as she gets in. He and jason quickly went to the driver's and passenger's seat.

"we're picking up max." she said, looking out the window.

•••

"you look lovely." alexia breathed out. What her kinds really said, about angels, are true. They really are breath-taking. And this girl in front of her proves it.

Max smiles, "aren't you just smooth" she said. Alexia chuckles. "you know what's lovely? Finally seeing you express your feelings." alexia smiles.

"aren't you such a wise." alexia offered max a hand for her to take.

As the circle of friends were talking, jess is just stand, minding his own business.

"jess." he immediately turned to his caller. It was alexia. "why don't you go and talk to your wife? I'll be okay here." jess nod at her as a thank you and left to go outside. Alexia turns to max when she notice someone walking towards them. "holy shit."
