For The Eternals

It's Her

There was a loud sound coming from Lucifer’s room. He was a super quiet person. It’s impossible he made any noise like this. I ran out of my room and found everyone near his door.

“Lucifer?!” Alex shouted.

“Is there any attack?” Edward’s turn.

“What’s going on?” This time was Theo’s.

Not long, Lucifer went out wearing only a towel. His face was red and looked overwhelmed.

“Are you okay?” I asked him.

He took a deep breath and entered his closet. He wore a T-shirt and a pair of joggers, then he sat on his bed. I didn’t know why everyone still patient waiting for him to finish. Just talk and everything would be fine.

As if he could hear me, he looked at me. I was nervous since he was unpredictable. Thank God he decided to look at us one by one.

“I’ve met her”

I went downstairs into the living room. I turned on the TV and sat on the sofa. Theo sat next to me. William sat on the armchair, Edward stood near the window, Henry sat on the other side of me, and Alex sat opposite of me. Lucifer took place near the fire pit. He still looked distant.

“What do you mean by you’ve met her? Her who?” Alex opened first.

“Yeah.. I never see you like that. It must be something huge” Theo said.

We were very surprised to see a collecting person like him doing something abruptly. When we entered his room, we looked around for possible treat. Edward entered his bathroom and looked surprised. I thought someone was in his bathroom, so I followed him. I saw Edward looked at the crack in the shower.

“Is that…” His words were never continued because he saw Lucifer was staring at him. “Never mind.”

I looked closer and saw some thick liquid scattered around in the shower. I was sure it was semen. So, he jerked off after seeing…whoever he saw.

“Our soulmate..” Lucifer’s voice stopped my flashbacks.

The others looked curious. Everyone was looking at him full of questions. Lucifer opened his mouth and told us about his encounter with our soulmate. The others were very seriously listening to him and wondering how she looked. They were looked very determined and calculated their next move.

Honestly, I was curious, but I didn’t plan anything for it. The others were already doing that. They really wanted to meet her. I won’t be in their way, but I didn’t want to have my way either. If it’s the destiny, we’ll met her. Let’s just wait and see.

The new semester would began in less than a month. I had managed everything but there’s always a room for something to walk in the wrong way. Right now I was staring at the papers on my desk that seems never end.

Suddenly I heard steps and knocks at my door.

“Come in” I knew it was William.
He opened the door and showed his phone.

“Mr. Alan Alfred called me. He asked you to see your phone.“

I looked around finding my phone and saw it on the bed.

“Thanks, William.” I stood and walked to my bed. My phone was off due to the battery that had been empty. I didn’t recharge it since yesterday due to the busy schedule.

I connected the cable and turned my phone on. A few moments later I could read Mr. Alfred’s message. He said something about the list of scholarship and the recipients.

“You know I could help, right?”

William’s voice was heard from the door. I looked at him and took a deep breath. I always forgot I had a very helpful family. I always wanted to do everything by myself and never asked their help. But in my deep heart, I knew I could rely on them.

“If you pleased, could you print this document? It’s about the scholarship”

He nodded and went to the printer while I continued my works before.
A few minutes later, he held a stack of papers.

“How about we read this while eating some chips with the guys?”

I thought about it, and nodded. Why not? I could used some rest while bonding with my guys. Win-win..

We went down stairs to the living room and saw the rest of my clan were there, watching TV, or drinking beer, reading book and munching some chips.

I took a bag of potato chips and William put the papers down.

“What’s this?” Edward asked.

“It’s about the scholarship” William answered.

Edward backed off. He didn’t like doing papers. He was the laziest among us regarding paper work, but the best in physical work. I had to admit that.

Daniel took some papers and read them. So did Henry. They observed them and after a few minutes, the table was full of papers.

Lucifer took another bag of chips under the table and coincidentally saw one of the paper on the table. He stopped and took it. He read it for a while and showed us.

“It’s her.”

We looked at him directly, then to the paper he held. It was an application of a scholarship grantee.

“Amaryllis Caldwell” Henry read it out loud.

“She’s the girl I met in the park.”

The school was full of people. Some of them were the students, some of them were teachers, or the officials of the university. They were doing their business since the first day of the new semester would be started.

I could see some of them from the window of my office. I was waiting for the next move from our leader.

I remember the day, when Alex saw the application and Lucifer said it was our soulmate.

“We must see her” Heard the voice of Edward.

“How? Direct approaching would made her scared.” William warned.

“Yeah. We can’t meet her and say, ‘hello, we are your soulmate. You have to follow us and we will never let you out of our hands” Theo said.

Edward laughed, “yeah.. That would freaked her out”

Everyone was thinking and suddenly William had an idea.

“How about we cancel her dorm room, make it unavailable. So she could stay with us. The university wasn’t far away. We could give her accommodations, like car or something, for the compensation.”

“That’s good idea” Henry chimed.

Alex directly called the person who in charge for the dorm of the scholarship grantees. He was in the phone for a few minutes and after he was done, he was back to us.

“We should prepared”

With that, everyone scattered around and prepared everything we need to welcome her.

Edward and Theo made sure the room for her was ready. Alex made a few calls, William prepared her school stuff, and I got to purchase things for her, while Lucifer did God knows what. Daniel was the one who had lack of interest. He seemed not liked the idea of having a soulmate.

Well.. I understood him. For him, the clan was everything. Maybe he was scared the girl would teared us apart.

A tune was heard from my phone. I picked it up, it’s from Alex.

“We’ve got her”
