[Siony's pov]

"Why won't you answer me?!" I kept pushing it. I had to know, I have a right to know. "Leave me alone. I already fuckin' told you." He said calmly. Zelos quickly picked up his stuff and walked away leaving. "That wasn't the real answer and I know it" I followed him back into the house, it was strange how he wasn't hurling stuff at me right now because of how much I was bugging him, he looked messed up. But I didn't care.

"how about you stop meddling in shit that isn't your fucking business?!"
"QUIET DOWN!!!"
"YOU'RE LOUDER THAN ME"
"I deserve to know why you fucking punched me don't I?!?!"
"FOR FUCK'S SAKE!!!"

Zelos grabbed me by my shirt with both hands and shaked me aggressively the room started spinning. "WHY. THE. FUCK. DO. YOU WANT TO KNOW SO FUCKING BADLY?!?!" I swear to God he was shaking me on beat with his yelling. "I'M BELOW YOU."

"JUST GO BACK TO YOUR THOUSAND DOLLAR LIFE AND DON'T TAKE A SECOND GLANCE AT ME. FIRST YOU STOP ACTING LIKE YOU GIVE A FLYING SHIT"

His eyes were intensely murderous, I guess that look he gave me at school wasn't real after all. He really really hated me. That comment hurt a little, I actually believed Zelos didn't see me as if my face was made entirely of money for a second.

The fact that Zelos wasn't afraid of me, and fought me, I thought he treated me as an equal even if he resented who I was. But he thinks that I think he's lesser than me. He thinks so little of me.

All the times he would insult me about being rich, his comments seemed like he was just finding something to yell back at me. This time was different, he was much louder, there was much more hatred. His words rang in my ears. There was no way he just hated me for being rich, but it seems like it's exactly the reason why now.

I had to restrain myself so it wouldn't end up in another violent fight, my mother was right in the other room.

"WHAT THE FUCK IS THE MATTER WITH YOU?!" I shouted. "I'M LEAVING!!!" He screamed back from far away, and not long after, the front door slammed shut. Jesus fucking Christ this guy is so infuriating. Fuck him. So this is how it's gonna be. If Zelos won't tell me a thing, I'm going to find someone who will.

On Monday after the weekend, I went back to school. I saw Zelos a few times but he cleverly avoided me all the way. He'd glare at me for a second, then move further away from me trying to keep his distance. Whatever. If he's going to make it so hard for me, I won't ask him.

After class, I was heading out and putting back books into my locker when someone stood next to me.

"Excuse me...are you Siony?"

My eyes lit up. I closed my locker and turned to my side. It was a blue haired girl with midnight eyes, and she was significantly short, and pretty attractive. I looked her up and down, she was wearing a blue skirt with a white buttoned up shirt tucked in and she held a tote bag on one of her shoulders. Then she started looking familiar. She sounded like the female version of Zelos and she had the same eyes and hair color, I just knew it was his sister. She's the perfect person I need to talk to.

"Yes. Can I do something for you?" I smiled politely. "Sorry, I'm Lucisse Aphillion. Zelos's sister." She apologized. I was right, it is her. I didn't know Zelos had a sister actually, It just hadn't crossed my mind yet. "Setaphonius Hellona. Pleasure to meet you" I responded.

"I wanted to speak with you about Zelos, actually." Lucia sounded nervous, and looked around a lot. "I know you got involved with him in a fight and..." she was a bit scared of me, that was it. "Hey." I put my hand on her shoulder and tried to sound gentle. "It's okay, it's not what you think."
