Everything has been happening so fast. It's amazing. I love it so much. The castle is amazing and so rich with history. I am at breakfast with Lovel, Ara, Lucius, and Isha. They continue to drag me here. I was listening to a conversation that Ara and Isha are having. It's something about Charms class. I don't exactly know, I zoned out a while ago.
"Kerrie!" Lovel nudged me in the shoulder. I shake my head slightly and return to reality. I can't even remember what I was daydreaming about.
"Sorry what?" I turn and look at Lovel.
"Are you okay? I've been calling your name for five minutes." Lovel does his stupid smirk that gets on my nerves all the time.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I just zoned out. What were you saying?"
"Lucius wants to know if you finished eating? He wants the rest of your food," Lucius is beside Lovel. I shrug my shoulders and push my plate down the table to Lucius.
"Are you sure? You hardly ate anything?" Lovel asks. I am not very hungry today. Honestly I haven't been very hungry all week. Just one of these times again when my body tries to starve itself.
"Definitely, let Lucius have it. I am not hungry." Lovel looks at me for a moment before pushing the plate further down the table to Lucius.
"Come on, Kerrie" Lovel stands up and waits for me. I am curious so I stand up as well. We both walked out of the Great Hall and down a corridor. I continued walking behind him for a while before actually speaking up.
"Where are we going?" We walk up a set of stairs and down another corridor.
"We are going outside. It's a nice day and I am bored of being inside." I rolled my eyes. Lovel nudges me and I push him back slightly. Lovel takes this as a challenge, he pushes me back but harder. I raise my eyebrow slightly, I go to push Lovel back but he grabs my wrist and pushes me against the wall.
"Is someone upset now?" I tease and look him in the eyes. His eyes are bright and I can see the enjoyment of this in them. I slip out of his grip and run down the hallway. Lovel chases after me. I run faster, the air of the corridor picks up through my hair. I can hear Lovel behind me. I run down out the door and duck behind the door before Lovel can catch up. Lovel runs through the door and stops to look around for me. I grab his wrist and kick his foot out from under him. I hold his wrist so he doesn't hit the ground too hard. I let his wrist go and he fell completely flat on the ground.
"You must really like the ground. You are always down there." I tease. Lovel grows in his throat. He grabs my coat and I am dragged down and fall on him.
"Ow," I say as my head hits his rib cage. His rib cage is way too sharp.
"That's payback for making me chase you, then tripping me." I roll my eyes again. I sit up but don't get off Lovel. I sit on his chest and pin him down.
"I prefer to not fall on top of you. I don't know who that hurts more. Your ribs are so painful to fall on" I say while rubbing the back of my head. Lovel chuckles softly.
"It didn't hurt me much. You weigh practically nothing." I give him an annoyed look. He just chuckles and pushes me back so he can sit up. Lovel sits up and I am now sitting in his lap. "Why did you run anyway?"
"I felt like it. Also it's fun to watch you chase after me."
"It was not fun. It was annoying." Lovel runs a finger through my hair and he pulls my hair, hard. I grab his wrist and dig my nails into his skin. "Ow, ow, ow, let go Kerrie" Lovel whines. I let his wrist go. He grabs his wrist and rubs the red spots that are now on his skin.
"Sorry." Not really. Lovel gives me an annoyed look. I rub my thumb over the red spots on his wrist. "You will survive"
"No, I won't. Your nails are like claws, they hurt." I take his wrist and kiss the marks gently.
"Awe, poor baby." I tease. "You will live" Lovel chuckles softly. He pushes me back and stands up. He then holds out his hand and helps me up. I take his hand, still annoyed and stand up. I brush the dirt off my clothes.
"That wouldn't have happened if you didn't insist on me being on the ground," Lovel says and brushes dirt off my back. I push Lovel gently to the side. He pushes me back.
"Is that a clever idea, Kitten? You pushing me around?" I love calling Lovel 'Kitten'. It makes him annoyed at me but also embarrassed because I normally only call him Kitten in front of our friends. Lovel gives me his annoying little grin, again.
"Probably not. But it's fun." I roll my eyes at him. He is so annoying, but sometimes that's not a bad thing. Especially with Lovel. Lovel steps forward and takes my hand. I watch my hand in his.
"Not a good idea Kitten, playing with the cat is never advised. Unless you actually have a good plan." Lovel turns my hand over and traces the small lines on my hand. He looks so interested in what he is doing.
"Yes, I know. But it is extremely fun. What are you doing for the rest of the day?" Lovel stops looking at my hand, locks his finger with mine and moves closer again. I take his other hand in mine and look up at him.
"I was planning on going to the library later after morning classes. Why?"
"I was thinking we could do something together?"
"Like what kitten"
"Well, instead of going to our classes we could just disappear."
"Are you insinuating that we skip classes? Oh Kitten, how you have become so much like me." I tease him. "And what would happen if we did skip classes? I mean I have to know what we're doing." Lovel reaches around my waist and whispers in my ear.
"Well, we could do something…" Lovel moves forward again and presses his entire body against me. He then moves his head lower and brushes his lips against my neck. "Shameful" He finishes his sentence and kisses my neck.
"Is this a reward or punishment?" I whisper back to him. My voice is a lot lower than his was.
"Darling, this is anything but a reward. If you thought running away from me was a good idea maybe think again next time before you do such a damn stupid thing." Lovel bites my neck harshly. I try to move away but his grip on me is too strong. "Your not getting away that easily"
"Don't do this here. We are in the middle of the courtyard." I say but I don't really mean that. There is something very accelerating about being here. But as I already had thought Lovel doesn't care. He will do anything. Lovel's lips trail up my neck to just below my ear, and his breath tickles a bit. He whispers,
"The only reason you don't want me to do this here is because you want me to do it somewhere more private."
"I mean, that's not a bad idea." I say and move my head. Lovel chuckles low, and trails more kisses down my neck. His breath catches in his throat, and his eyes flicker shut at the way my body heats up. When he speaks it's only a husky whisper, which is beautiful to hear.
"You see. You do want me to do it somewhere private. Somewhere I can have you all to myself for as long as we want. And I plan on making it last."
"Wouldn't Ara, Lucius, or Isha come looking for us? Or even worse, my brother?" I say. I do not what Mathias walking in on me and Lovel again. That was so funny though. Last month things got way too out of hand at the party in the Ananta common room and honestly I blacked out. Then two hours later I am completely naked with Lovel, and I quickly sober up when my brother walks in. It is the most embarrassing thing I have ever experienced. Lovel pulls back and kisses the end of my nose.
"You know, even if they did come looking for us, that wouldn't stop me from having you." His smile spreads and next he says, "Ara, Lucius, and Isha will never come looking for us unless we don't show up tomorrow. But we both know your twin doesn't really have the guts to try and stop me. And even if he did, I'm pretty sure I could take him." Lovel's smirk grew wide, he loved knowing that he drove Mathias crazy.
"I do not want you to fight my brother. Mathias might be annoying sometimes but he is my brother." Lovel grins, and runs a hand through my hair.
"Baby, I won't fight him unless he comes at me first. Trust me. I only want to be with you. No one else. And if your twin wants to get in the way, well..." Lovel trails off as he kisses my neck again. Lovel would never mention it, but he'd be happy for Mathias to pick a fight, and Lovel would revel in beating him down. I know him too well.
"Kitten, I know how your brain works. I don't trust that you won't fight Mathias. But even if Mathias starts it there is no way he will win. You would kill him." Lovel chuckles.
"Yeah, I guess I would." Lovel's grin stretches across his face as he leans into my neck more, biting and sucking the skin there. His hand moves onto my arse, squeezing it firmly, before moving again to run his hand through my hair. It's cute, and sexy at the sametime. "I'm not gonna lie, I like knowing how much it pisses him off that I'm with you, and that he can't do anything about it." Of course he does.
"Kitten must you be so proud of pissing people off?" I tease and kiss his collarbone. Lovel laughs, and lets out a breath of air before speaking.
"I won't lie. I really do enjoy making your brother so angry. I guess you could call it a little quirk of mine. But really, there is nothing sweeter than seeing him so worked up over me. I love knowing how mad he gets every time he has to see you on my arm, or on my lap. It's fun for me." And he brings up that experience again. It's funny how obsessed Lovel seems with my brother, but making fun of himI laugh softly and bite Lovel's collarbone gently.
"Must you continue to bring that up? That was not funny at all, especially because Mathias is mortified by me now." Lovel giggles when I bite his collarbone.
"Yeah, yeah, I know. But that was one of the funniest moments I have ever experienced. I still can't get over your twin's reaction." Lovel squeezes my arse again as he lets out a breath of air. "I mean, he was so pissed. And honestly..." Lovel smirks at me. "He deserved it."
"Yeah, he kinda did, Mathis should have knocked. I even know how he got into our common room? Or much less found his way to my room." At this school no one is allowed into the other houses' common rooms. Mathias is in Mohana house, there is no way he should have been in Ananta house. Lovel chuckles again.
"Yeah, really, he should have. I feel like if he had knocked first, it would have been a completely different story. But it was his fault that he caught us. And seeing him so angry was hilarious." Lovel grins, then says, "Oh, and also, what kind of idiot just barges into his sister's room unannounced? Especially without knocking?"
"Mathias, that's who. But it's not really his fault. We always shared a room at home so privacy is never something either of us had. He probably just assumed I was doing almost anything else other than what we were doing."Lovel needs understanding, I think.
"Yeah, that's fair. But still. He should know that here we all have our own rooms. And that there is a certain level of privacy to be expected. Besides, what did he expect to see when he burst in? What if we'd just been kissing, or even something way tamer? Is he really so immature that even something super innocent would have made him that uncomfortable?"
"I don't know? Probably not. Mathias is extremely innocent."Lovel raises an eyebrow at me, looking completely sarcastic.
"Really?" He smirks, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "I hadn't noticed. I mean, sure he gets red every time a girl comes near him, but I just thought that was because he had a stick up his arse. You're telling me that he's actually innocent?"
"Yeah, the only girls Matthias has ever actually gotten close to or even touched is me and Nevaeh. But yeah, sometime's Mathias seems like he has a stick up his arse."Lovel blinks when I say this, obviously surprised.
"He's never even had a real girlfriend?" Lovel asks. The idea of Mathias being innocent and inexperienced was hard to conceptualise I assume. Considering how intense he could be when it came to me, Mathia's twin sister.
"Yeah, never" I say. For what I know.
