The Enchanted Ones

Winslow

"Okay okay, I know what to do. Make sure no one sees you and listen carefully to my conversation with him." I tell him after some time, when I came up with a way to find out the password.

I open the door to head outside when he stops me, "Winslow wait."

"Don't have sex with him." He says after some seconds of hesitation.

I chuckle, "I wasn't -"

"And don't kiss him. And stop flirting. I am jealous."

I pause and blink once, to process what he just said.

"I won't kiss him, Evy. No need to get jealous."

I walk to the dance floor and spot him sipping some wine. He sees me and smirks, walking close to me, ready to devour me.

"I want to get to know you a little bit first." I back up a little. I feel so uncomfortable and I hope to God it's not obvious. He frowns and steps back.

"Wait what? Why?"

"I can't sleep with men the only thing I know about them is their name."

"That's all you need to know to scream it."

"I'm begging you to punch him. Or kill him. I'm giving you options."

"Shut up." I whisper-yell at Everett and Cameron frowns,

"What?"

"Oh nothing. I'm just saying that I want to know more about you."

"Fine, what do you want to know?" He seems mad. Men are such idiots. He thought I would sleep with him just like that?

"When's your birthday?" I take a drink from a waiter that's walking around and take a sip.

"December third."

"How old are you?"

"I'm twenty five."

"So December third 1198?"

"You're weird." He sips his drink.

"Doesn't work."

"Hmm. What's -"

"Wait. I don't get to ask questions about you?"

"Oh right, of course you can." I smile at him and he looks away, thinking.

"How old are you?"

"Twenty four." I lie. Can't reveal any thruths.

"Are you married to that guy?"

I raise my eyebrows, "No."

"Great then, can we get to the fun?"

"Wait. Do you have any special memories?"

"What kind of questions are those?"

"I like knowing these things about someone." I shrug.

"Well, I guess the year my dad trusted me enough to make me the leader of my team." He smiles to himself and I try to sound as normal as I can,

"What year was that?" I sip my drink.

"Two years ago. It was on my birthday too. Best present."

"Yes! Yes that's it! December third 2021."

I smile of relief and wait until Everett is done. I blink and in a matter of  seconds Cameron is in front of me, inches apart from my face and pushes a strand of hair behind my ear. Thank god it's not the one with the earbud, "Enough with these bullshit questions or I'll start thinking you're some kind of spy." He grins and I try to smile but he's too close and I'm so uncomfortable.
