Saibroes Haven

Chapter 5

CHAPTER 5

~Snow~

My jaw dropped just like Scarlett's with the scone that I slathered butter and jelly on halfway to my mouth. At the exact moment I saw who it was descending down the stairs, every thought of killing Thorn vanished from my mind. But it can't be. He's not even a Saibro so why is he here? They stopped at the bottom of the stairs giving all of us a wide grin, making it difficult for me to gather my thoughts and pick my jaw off the floor.

"Is that you?" Scarlett asked, squinting her eyes as if he's blurry. The instant she said that, the dark chocolate brown haired guy turned his head towards us and I immediately knew that it really is him.

"Do you know them, hon?" A curly haired guy asks him. The chocolate brown haired guy looked at us with his puzzled hazel eyes and it took all of my self control not to run towards them and beat him up until he's black and blue with his teeth littering the ground he stood on covered with his spit mixed with blood....... Wow...... I really need to cut down on the blood lust. Maybe taking a bite out of my scone would help.

"I don't think I do," he said, frowning at us. I opened my mouth to yell at him that it was me, Snow, the girl you rejected because I looked like a boy. Goodness, I really need to let that go.

"Hey, Theo," Taylor greeted the curly haired guy, hesitating a bit, like he's about to regret saying something.

"Who's the guy, Theo?" Skylee asked the curly haired guy who's name is apparently Theo while biting at a pastry. Everyone in the room, except for Scarlett and I, turned to look at Skylee with horrified expressions. I wonder why they look so scared at what Skylee just asked. Theo, who looked about twenty-one with a thin but a bit of a muscular figure, giggled at the question, making the other guy's grip around Theo's shoulder get tighter in a loving way.

"I'm Jonathan," he answered for Theo. My eyes widened when he said that name, stopping me mid-chew this time. It really is him. I was slightly hoping that it wasn't him, that maybe somewhere, someone in the universe doesn't really hate me as much as I though. But no, a whole flock of those that controls the universe absolutely loathes me. Well, I should know that hope is not really a very helpful attribute to me.

"My boyfriend," Theo added, giggling in a weird way. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait. Back the carriage up. Theo is a guy? Right? And he said that Jonathan is his boyfriend, right? So, there is only one logical reason on why he just called Jonathan his boyfriend, right? The instant Theo said that Jonathan was his boyfriend, Savannah coughed severely, choking on her food while Skylee laughed so hard that tears fell down her cheeks.

"Jonathan is your boyfriend?" Scarlett asked in shock at Theo who nodded enthusiastically before she burst out laughing like Skylee, who was still laughing. Sobering a bit, she added, "Tell me again why you liked Jonathan, Snow?"

"Snow? As in the girl in the Tenth Palace Snow?" Jonathan said, looking at me with curiosity in his eyes, "The-one-who-killed-that-pedophile Snow?"

"You liked my Jonathan?" Theo almost screamed at me. Oh my goodness.... Please don't tell me that this guy is actually getting jealous over something that happened so long ago. Like who am I to talk? I held a grudge about his rejection for so long, even getting obsessed with letting my hair grow even though it happened when we were little kids. Yeah, I have a lot of issues.

"I don't know why I liked Jonathan, yes I'm the same Snow who killed that disgusting pedophile and we were little kids Theo, that was a long time ago," I said, answering all of their questions in one sentence by the order they've been asked.

"Yet you're still mad at Taylor for slicing your hair off," Scarlett said, giggling a bit.

"Because I liked my hair when it was long," I retorted, not exactly a lie but not exactly the truth either. She gave me an I-don't-believe-you look but never said anything.
