Ange De La Mort ~ Enoch O'Connor

☆~ Chapter 3 ~ Angel ☆

I get up to someone shaking me and I open my eyes to see Claire. "Hi..." I say in a sleepy voice. She is jumping up and down and screams "IT IS TIME FOR BREAKFAST GET UP I WANT TO PLAY WITH YOU TODAY BUT I HAVE CLASS... PLEASEEE."

"Okay, okay. Just let me change." I say finally giving up on getting more sleep and I get up to change.

Claire leaves my room and I notice that there is a dress on the chair near my bed and I pick it up to see a white flowy dress.

I put it on, do my hair and makeup before I got downstairs to eat breakfast.

Everyone was already sitting in their seat, well all except Enoch and I could see their eyes were all on my dress. I could tell that they were surprised to see me with a dress, I usually never wear dresses because of the unwanted attention that people give me.

"Woah, you look so pretty with a dress, you look like a model. You know the ones in the magazines. Like the ones on the cover of Glamour or Vogue" Emma says

I smile and sit next to Olive waiting for Enoch to arrive and once he does everyone start eating. I look at my plate trying to find a little bit of appetite for something but nothing is working so I excuse myself and get up. I flatten my dress with my hands and I went to my room. "Victor?"

"Yes m'lady?" He says appearing

"What else can you tell me about this place?" I ask him with the intention of knowing everything by the end of this trip.

"Follow me" I do as he says and get lead to a strange room upstairs. As I enter I start to have this strange feeling of déjà vu.

"What is this place Victor?"

"Enoch's room"

I look at him mad and before I could leave I hear the door open.

I freeze and secretly hope that my peculiarity was to able to disappear because I would have at this moment.

"What are you doing in my room?" Enoch scoffs

"Well you see I'm still pretty new to this place and I was looking for Claire's room but I guess I went in the wrong one. Sorry" I say as I start walking toward the door.

But then Victor words came back to me "Just so you know if you want to get to know Enoch just ask about his peculiarity and let him warm up to you."

"Enoch?"

"What?"

"Can you show me your peculiarity?"
He looks surprised but nods

I sit down and look as he takes one of his dolls and starts to cut it open and take one of the hearts from his jar and put one in. I look as the doll comes alive. "Wow this is so impressive. I never seen anything like this before."

"But this is not even the best part... Do you want to see the best part Y/n?" He asked in this beautiful accent which almost made me melt on the spot.

"Sure"

He smirks and got another doll and whispered something to them and both started fighting I was so impressed and interested in it that I forgot about Enoch. "This is really cool"

"Thanks... so what's yours?"

"My what?"

"Your peculiarity"

"Promise to tell no one."

He nods and I sigh "I can control death in all its aspects."

"What do you mean all its aspects?"

I look at the remaining doll and concentrate. It starts to tumble before falling numb on the table and in the next second the heart completely explode inside the doll

"What was that, did you do that?"

I nod and notice that his attitude changed, he looked interested by me.

Before we could say anything we get interrupted by Claire screaming "JAKEEEEE"

I can hear Enoch scoff as i start to head downstairs but before i left his room i just gave him one last smile and a wink. I could see him blush and i could only imagine what Victor would say.

As I get downstairs, I slap Jake on the back of his head "Hey big bro"

"Hi Y/n" He looks at me and just hugs me. "Would you like me to tell you some gossip"

He looks intriged and follows me to the room with the letters "Look all of grandpas letter are here" He looks around and pick my letter up "this isn't grandpas handwriting"

"Shit drop it now" I try to take it but he keep reading "...you are far so I will write to you instead, I think you are the most interesting of the children and I think that you are handsome." I take it from him and scream at him and run upstair only to run into Miss peregrine "I see Victor showed you to the letters, which one is that?"

"Mine"

"Oh yeah I remember this one how adorable" I frown and just run to my room. I put the letter in the drawer and looked in the mirror to make sure my makeup isn't messed up because of my brother. I get out of my room only to be face to face with Olive "Well hello gorgeous... sorry that came out by itself" Olive said

"Stop it you're making me blush" I say as I bite my lips jokingly flirting.

"Stop flirting you wench" I hear Victor say and I just excuse myself to not laugh but also to speak to Victor. I go in the first room I see but once I enter it is dark and I notice Victor's discomfort.

"What is this room, Victor?"

"Mine"

"What do you mean by yours?"

"Look behind that curtain" I did as he say and notice his corpse. "Oh my god Victor"

He was missing his eyes and I could tell the same thing that happened to my grandpa happened to him. "You got killed by wild dogs too" I say seriously and he just scoff "No, what kind of stupid lie did people tell you, he was killed by an Hollow so was I"

"Miss Y/n, what are you doing here"

"Victor was..."

"I will ask you to get out and to not tell your brother or anyone about him."

"But..."

"Is that clear?"

"Yes miss" I say as I just leave angry, and I go outside. "Y/n?" Horace says.

"Yes?"

"You look angry what is it"

"Just Miss Peregrine who got mad at me for going in Victor's room by accident"

"Oh yeah she is pretty sensitive about him"

"Mhh" I just nod and look at what he is holding in his hands, "Are those flowers for me? What a gentleman" he looks at me and hands me a flower and I put it in my hair. I hear someone cough and look to see Enoch behind "Lunch is ready" he said looking annoyed. Horace just heads there and I make sure to stay near Enoch and I whisper to him "For a second there I would say that you were jealous." And I just walk away to let him deal with his emotions.

"Oh that is evil" Victor say and smirk "I like it"
