Stupid love

8.

      It was past midnight and I woke up. I was feeling thirsty, so I stood up and went outside my room. There was pitch silence in the mansion. Also it looked a little creepy. I felt a little scared. The lights were dim. I started walking and went downstairs. I don't know why I was feeling scared. Maybe the mansion magic was causing this. I went straight to the kitchen and drank a glass of water. While I was drinking I thought maybe I'm forgetting something. But what? Then after a little while of thinking i finally knew what was I forgetting.
"Frost and Flake!..... They two might be waiting for me. Oh! I totally forgot about them." I thought.
I went to the place where I told them to wait for me. And to my surprise I found them two waiting. They both stood up. When they saw me coming there way. I reached close to them and they both smiled happily.
" Your here finally." Said Flake.
" We were waiting for such a long time. " Said Frost, rudely.
" I'm sorry.... But you can take this as a part of your training." I said.
" But how? " Asked Frost.
" Well!...Because I came late you learned how to be patient. And patience is a strong weapon." I said.
" Okay!..... So can we start training, now. " Said Frost.
" Sure...." I said. " But first I want you two to have a battle with each other. "
" What, no. " Said Flake.
" Why? " I asked.
" I don't want to fight with my brother. " Said Flake.
" Yes, niether do I. " Said Frost.
" Oh My!.... You two really love each other.... I'm happy to see, such a lovely bond between you two. " I said with a warm smile on my lips.
" So we are not fighting with each other, right. " Asked Flake.
" Yes your not. " I said. " You may fight with me. "
"Okay.... " They said in a union.
" But we will only training for an hour, today. Then you two may go to your room and sleep. " I said and with that we started training. I realized that there speed has increased than before. Maybe they both had been practicing. But, at the end I won as usual.
" Okay now it's time to go." I said.
" Okay Sensei!...." They said in a union. Then as they were about to leave I remembered something important.
" Wait! I... I want to ask you something." I said.
" What is it, Sensei?" Asked Frost.
" Do any one of you know where the library room is?" I asked. Thinking they might say no.
" Yes, we do. " Said Flake.
" You do!.... But isn't the library room only known by the High Rank Demons. " I asked.
" Yes... I and Flake are ranked 4 among High Rank Demons." Said Frost. And I was shocked. How can these two kids be high rank demons. And if they are. Then how can't they defeat me. I was really confused.
" Okay... If you two are high ranks than how can't you defeat me. " I asked.
" Well! your speed is uncompetable. And that's why we want you train us. So that we can become as fast as you." Said Flake.
" Yes, your are really fast. I think that your speed might be same as Thomas. He's the fastest demon we know. " Said Frost.
" But I think you two hadn't showed me your true power. " I said. Because I can't believe that I'm that strong.
" Well maybe... But I promise you, that next time we will show our best." Said Flake.
" Okay then! I can't wait for our next battle......" I said as I was excited for my next fight with them.
" But right now I want you two to show me where the library is. " I said.
" We can't... " Said Flake.
" You can't say, no. Or else I won't train you. " I glared at them. They both looked at each other, worried.
" Okay fine we will show you the way. " Said Frost.
" Good! " I said happily. They started walking and I followed them. We were silent the entire way. Then, when we were in the mansion. I was shocked by Flake's question. He asked me about my rank.
" My Rank!..... Why do you want to know about my rank." I asked.
" Your so strong you might have a high rank." Said Flake.
" Well to be honest. I don't have a rank.... No one in the mansion is known about my power.... Because I think you should know how to show yourself weak if you have high power. But Demon King knows about it.... Promise me you won't tell anyone anything about my power. " I said.
" We promise. "They said in a union, and I smiled.
We all kept walking for a while. Then, they both stopped near a huge door. That door was as huge and beautiful as the throne room door. I was surprised by its beauty. I want to open it and see inside. But just as I was about to touch it I was stopped by Frost.
" You can't go inside.... No one is allowed to go inside." Said Frost.
" What really!..... So, no one can go inside." I asked.
" Well! Not everyone..... But Thomas can." Said Flake.
" Thomas!.... Let me guess. Because he is the only person King trust, so he can only go inside." I said, unhappily.
" Yes.... Now can we go. " Said Frost.
" Fine.... " I said. And we started walking. We reached an intersection and I have to turn left to went to my room. We stopped.
" I have to go left, now." I said pointing my finger to left.
" Okay we are going right." Said Frost.
" Good night, Sensei. " Said Flake and Frost, smiling
" Good night. " I said. After a while of walking I reached my room. I went silently inside and fall asleep on my couch.
The Next Day, I woke up a little early. Stretched my body as usual. I stood up from my couch and turned to take a bath. But I was surprised to find Demon King still present in the room.
_He's still here. But how?... Why didn't he left?_ I thought.
I pretended normal and went to take a bath. When I came out he was still present in the room. I was wearing one of his dress, a white dress with blue prints. I looked at him. He was looking damn hot, as usual. He was standing near the dressing mirror. I saw the yesterday white rose on the table. It had lost its freshness and withered. He picked the rose from the table.
" What is this doing here?" He asked.
" .... It's the same rose from yesturday. I found it on the table when I woke up. I knew it was from you." I said, softly.
" Is that so. "
" I was really happy when I saw it...... I wore a lovely red dress and made a cute hairstyle with the rose tug on my hair. I wanted to show you. I want to ask you how I look?...... But I didn't find you in the throne room. Alex told me you were in the library..... I didn't knew were the library was. I asked Alex and Thomas, but they both refuse to tell me where you were?...... By afternoon, it lost its beauty. So I put it on the table. " I said. There was a strange sadness in my voice. Maybe because i was sad about yesterday. I really wanted to show him how I looked. I spent so much time getting ready for him. I looked up at the withered rose in his hand. But to my surprise, the rose was fresh as new again. But how?
_May be he has healing power?_ I thought. I took one step forward to observe the rose more clearly. Then suddenly, he turned to me and started coming close. He was too close to me. That I started taking back steps, and he kept moving forward.
_Why is he coming so close?_ I thought, worried. I don't want him this close to me. (I want him close to me.)
Soon I realized I have no space to move back. I stopped. He was really close. Just few inches away. I felt butterfly's and my cheeks turned red. Then he gently placed the rose in my hairs. And lefted my chin up with his finger. I looked in his deep red eyes. He was looking amazingly handsome. I have no words to describe his beauty.
" I wish you weren't in love with me." He sad. And I felt a sadness in his voice. Then, he turned and started to leave.
" Me too." I said, smiling. He turned and looked at me.
" I just fall in love with that person who killed my entire village, and my family. How stupid of me?.... Like you said 'Stupid love'. " I said and giggled.
" Do you want to see where the library is? " He asked, looking away.
" Yes. " I said, smiling. I knew where the library was but I was still surprised that he wanted to show me the library. While everyone else refused to. And maybe, he would let me see the library from inside?,I thought.
We walking to the library. I was familiar with the path. As we reached near the library door. He opened the door and we went inside. _Oh My!..... It's so beautiful.... So, huge..... I think I'm in heaven...._ I thought. For some reason I felt a feeling of love for books. I went near one of the book shelf and picked a book with red cover. But unfortunately, I couldn't read it. Not that I forgot how to read, but because I can't understand its language. It was written in different symbols.
" You can't read it.... It's written in Demon language.... And also it's a magic book containing powerful magic spells." Said the Demon King.
" Oh!.... Is there any book I can read? " I asked.
" I don't think so."
" Okay! So, can I ask why you showed me the library. "
" So that you can meet me in the library whenever you want. But, you will only come inside when you know I'm in the library." He said, instructing me strickly.
" Okay don't worry. " I said.
We both went out from the library and parted ways. I went to my room and he went to doing his Demon King work. I reached my room and saw my breakfast ready. Erin was still standing beside the table. I don't trust her anymore, so I have to find a way to know if she hadn't poison my breakfast like before.
" Eat it." I said.
" I'm sorry for before.... But this time it's not poisoned. I promise, please trust me." Said Erin.
" Fine then,.... But remember one thing if something happened to me. Demon King will kill you and Thomas."
" I'm not with Thomas anymore."
" I still don't trust you. "
" I.... "
" You may leave. " I said trying not to look at her. Erin left the room immediately and I sat on my couch to have my breakfast. I know one thing, that's my breakfast is not poisoned. But I want her to know that she did wrong with me. I trusted her and she joined my..... Well I can't call Thomas my enemy. I just don't like him, that's all. Also I like to get him in trouble.
" I might just enjoy my breakfast now." I said to myself.
At After noon, I decided to go to the throne room since, I was bored. I opened the throne room door and went inside. But to my disappointment the throne room was empty. I walked towards the Demon King's thrown. It was the most beautiful throne I have ever seen. And when Demon King sats on his thrown, he enhance it's beauty even more. I realized a strange smile on my lips. Whenever I think about him I always have a smile on my face, he sure do make me happy. Thinking about these thoughts I started giggling.
" Meow, meow meow. "
" That sound.... I know that sound." I started looking around the place. Then suddenly, a cat appeared from behind the thrown. It was a black cat with yellow shiny eyes. Oh! I think I'm in love.
" Your so so so, cute." I said looking at the black cat.
" Meow! "
_I don't understand, what's a cat doing here, in the throne room?_ I thought.
" Who cares.... I just want to play with the most adorable kitty." I said to myself and went towards the cat. I grabbed it in my arms, gently. It had really soft fur. It wasn't scared of me and I was really glad. After all, it live among demons so how can it be scared of a harmless human, like me. I started playing with the cat. I spinned it in my arms, and hugged it gently. And called it by different cute names. _This is my best day._ I thought. I was really happy. I spent a lot of time just playing with the cat.
I was lying on the throne room couch and playing with the cat, when I realized a presence near me. I sat on the couch and was shocked to see Demon King standing near me. And he looked really mad.
_Why is he so mad? What have I done wrong?_ I thought. I stood up and smiled at him holding the cat in my arms.
" What are you doing?" He asked angrily.
" I... I was just playing with this cute cat." I said
" Drop it!" He said, and I let go of the cat, immediately. It landed on its feet, as I have heard cat always land on there feet. Well I don't remember when I heard that, but it just came to my mind.
" Why are you angry?" I asked, worried. He was glaring at the cat, as if he was not angry with me but the cat. The cat went near Demon King and sat few steps from him.
" Transform!" Demon King said angrily. And with that a strange dust covered the cat. And within seconds that cat was as big as a human. DID THAT CAT JUST TRANSFORMED INTO A HUMAN? WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON! I was really shocked. I couldn't believe that I was playing with a demon, who can transforme himself into a cat. It's so embarrassing.
" Who the hell is this idiot!" I asked. My face was red and I can't make myself to look at him. I covered my eyes with my right hand, my head lean down.
" My name is Tom. And I'm a black cat with power of bad luck. " Said Tom.
" Why didn't you transform before? " Asked the Demon King, glaring at him.
" She is a guest of yours,.... She was so happy seeing me as a cat, and started playing with me that I didn't got the chance to transform back. " Said Tom, politely, looking down.
" I wish you kill him." I said as low as a whisper to Demon King. Thinking that he wouldn't do anything like that, especially for me. Demon King was looking at me. I'm sure he was surprised by my request. Because first I said to kill Thomas and now Tom.
" Wait! How can you say that. I thought we were friends. " Said Tom. He was a cat, so he heard my low whisper.
" I'm not any idiots, friend. Especially your friend. " I said, angrily.
" forgive me Demon King if I did something wrong. " Said Tom, bowed infront of Demon King. But Demon King was angry and I knew he was going to kill him. He raised his hand with sharpened nail. He was going to slice him into half. I ran towards Tom and stood Infront of him with my arms wide open. I closed my eyes tight. _Please don't kill me._ I thought to myself. I opened my eyes slowly. And to my shock his hand was near my neck. _He stopped, thank goodness!_ I thought and sighed with relief.
" Get out of my way." Said the Demon King glaring at me.
" I won't let you kill him, unless you kill Thomas..... If you can't kill that idiot then you must spare his life." I said a bit too loud.
" Why do you want me to spare his life? Aren't you the one who wish that I kill him? " He said, angrily.
" I did said that.... But I don't want that anymore. "
" And why is that! " He said glaring at Tom. Tom can't understand what was going on and he was really confused.
_Did he.... Did he think that I like Tom? He can't be this jealous._ I thought. And closed my eyes with a disappointed look on my face.
" Fine I will spare his life. I wasn't going to kill him anyways." Said the Demon King. I opened my eyes. He looked calm.
" Now leave!" He said to me. I went close to him and stood on my feet toes to reach little near his face.
" I love you..." I whispered and moved back. His cheeks has turned red and so were mine. I went outside the throne room immediately after that. I knew he wouldn't kill him. After a little while of standing near the throne room door I decided to went to my room.
I reached near the same window from where I can see the garden along with the magic fountain. Today, it was sunny outside but everything was still covered with snow as usual. I went near the glass window and felt they warmness of the sun rays. It was indeed a lovely day. Then I looked down and saw Frost and Flake in the garden. I decided to went down at they garden to meet them. Also I have a news for them.
I went down at the garden and saw Frost and Flake. I waved at them with a warm smile. They waved back. I reached near them and they both greeted me.
" What are you doing here Sensei?" Asked Flake shyly.
" I want to tell you two something important." I said.
" What is it, Sensei?" They said in union, worried.
" Well you don't need to worry it's just that, I can't come to train you two tonight..... So we won't meet tonight." I said.
" What! But you were going to fight with us tonight. " Said Frost.
" Yes I know, but look at the bright side. You two have more time to practice and defeat me in our next fight." I said, smiling.
" It's not fair... You said you will fight with us. " Said Frost being mad at her in a childish way.
" It's fine brother. Maybe Sensei have some other important work to do, that's why she can't train with us tonight. " Said Flake. He put his hand on Frost shoulder and smiled at him.
" Yes that's true, I do have an very important work, that has to be done tonight." I said.
" See...." Said Flake.
" Okay fine...." Said Frost.
" Good!..... Then, I might be going now. " I said and left.
_I didn't lied to them. I do have important plan for night. Something that is going to make Thomas life misrable. He is so going to regret messing with me._ I thought to myself, and smirked.
