ATLAS AXEL

I have always loved rain, I loved the smell it had the sand omitting. That scent that made people feel alive.

Maybe not.

Today was one of those days that it rained. Rain meant that everything was going to be disorganized.

Messy. Was one word to describe it.

I slumped on my chair next to Alessa who smiled at me. The classroom was fuller than usual as finals were approaching.

"Most of you made it." the teacher remarked while going through her book. "Finals are next week," she says, smiling  smugly.

"I'll give you the topics of what to expect in the final exams," she immediately  starts walking around the room giving the pile of papers for different subjects.

"That was something." Alessa says as I follow her into the parking lot. "Finals,"I say, feeling the little strength I had in my body vanish.

"Styx's here," Alessa says, tagging at my hand.My heart skips a bit when I see styx standing outside his car.

His hair is styled neatly adorned with curls. He is wearing a Button down t-shirt and black pants that go with his outfit.

He's so pretty.

"What's up styx?" Alessa says, opening the backdoor,entering and closing the door loudly. She did that to get on his nerves.

"Hi," I greet rubbing my hands together hoping to get some warmth.

"Tesoro you didn't reply to my message"Styx says moving closer to me. "I- '' I start but he cuts me off when his hand comes in contact with my waist gently .

Slowly he bends his head to my neck and plants a kiss at the ending of my jaw.

His green eyes meet mine and my heart feels like  combusting, he's even prettier up close. 

He retreats, moving to open the passenger's  door for me.

Styx moves closer to me when he is tying my safety belt once I'm inside the car. "You look beautiful  baby,"He whispers when he's close to my ear. 

The belt clicks and he retreats Shutting the door.

If he keeps on saying things like this I'm going to fall for him. "Damn what's going on?"Alessa asks, smirking at me.

"What do you think?" I ask, trying to hide my smile. "Meglio se non lo sai." Styx mumbles starting the car . 

(Better if you don't know)

"You know what?"Alessa inquires, making his gaze turn to her as he eases out of the parking lot.

She shows her tattooed middle finger to Styx who doesn't look bothered.

"What did he say?"I inquired, letting the little chuckle slip. I love their sibling-bond, they are so cute.

"What are you doing tomorrow?"Alessa asks."Noth-."I start but I'm cut off by styx. "She's going out with me."Styx says, making Alessa's gaze meet mine.

"I see,"she says, smirking. The car pulls into the familiar gates and Alessa gets out once  it comes to a stop.

"So we are going out?"I tease light-heartedly." Styx's hand meets to my jaw adjusting it so I'm making eye contact with him.

"Tesoro you don't h-"I cut him off by placing a soft kiss on his cheek. "Styx, I want to," I say, smiling cheekily at him.

I knock softly on the styx door.he opens after a while.

We had dinner together including Mia and luca. After that Alessa and I helped her clean as I answered their inquiries about me and styx.

Not all of them of course.

I enter the room as styx follows behind him. 

"What do you want to do?" I ask removing the house shoes and climb onto his bed to make myself comfortable.

I avert my gaze from him when he doesn't  respond. Styx walks to the bed and lies next to me.

"Do you want to cuddle?"I tease. I like the way I have grown comfortable around him. "No," he mumbles when his eyes meet mine.

I move closer to him and  look at him. "What's wrong?" I ask moving,my fingers on his jaw admiring his skin.

How can one have such clear skin?

"It's nothing," he says. I move closer to him, wrapping my hand around his neck and running the other through his head.

Slowly so slowly he bring his hand around my waist pulling me closer go him.

"Can I braid your hair tomorrow ?" I ask running my hand through the tangled curls. He hums in approval and I move my head to snuggle his neck.

He smells so good.

I open my eyes slightly when I feel Styx shuffle before placing a soft kiss on my head, moving one of his hands to my hair, the other one still on my waist tracing a pattern.

He's tracing little guitars. My heart beats at the amount of joy I am feeling.

I drift to sleep slowly.

I open my eyes slowly, panic seeping in as I take in my surroundings. Its in the morning.

"Tesoro?" Styx calls and I immediately calm down as realization hits me.

"Morning I mumble searching under the pillows for my phone. I take in my appearance and sign in relief when I look at myself.

I look down at the large gray t-shirt I am wearing and glance at styx."Did you change me?" I ask a little panic seeping in.

I have been intimate with him but that was different. He didn't get to see me. Styx comes to the bed taking a hold of my hand gently.

"Alessa changed you," he whispers. A tear drops down my eye and I quickly wipe it with the back of my hand. 

How could I have doubted him? His touches are so gentle like he's scared if he  touches me he'll hurt me. He would never even try anything like that.

"Styx? I'm sorry." I whisper. What if he doesn't want to take me on the date today as planned.Without another word styx nods walking out of the room leaving me to drown in my own sorrows.

Does that mean he doesn't want to take me on a date? Does that mean he doesn't like me?

The door opens and clicks closed. I avert my eyes to Styx who is carrying a tray of food in his hands.

"Don't cry tesoro." He says placing the tray on the side table by the bed.

His hands cup my cheeks slowly before placing a soft kiss on the left and right side of my jaw.

"We are still going on the date, hmm?" He asks. I move closer to him slowly and peck his lips.

Styx doesn't respond and I move slightly  back but he holds my waist firmly kissing me.The kiss is slow and passionate.

"You're so beautiful." He whispers once the kiss is over, placing a kiss on my neck.
