POTION OF LOVE

Mia leaves the room without saying anything, nor do we give her an explanation of this whole situation

As soon as the door closes leaving us in an awkward silence. I glance at him to find him already looking at me. The lights made it easier for me to understand his expressions. Flustered face, heavy pants with some sweat on his forehead. Just like me

We stare at each other silently until he breaks the silence "You finally showed your cat characteristics huh, look at the mess" he says, how to voice a mix of annoyance and mockery

I turn my head to look at the surroundings. The white feathers exploded from the pillows leaving them empty and wrinkled. Those soft materials cover the bed and a few on the floor.

He scoffs and ruffles his hair to remove those features tangled in them. I run my hand through my hair brushing off the feathers. He scoots away dropping the empty pillowcase on the bed, his hands crossed over his chest while he looks at the disarray

"This wouldn't have happened if you didn't chase me" I mutter getting off the bed. "This wouldn't have happened if you didn't sneak in" He taunts. I roll my eyes "Oh I had to because you weren't returning my card! And tomorrow is the last day so I had to!" I realise that I am no longer holding the card. My eyes widened, and I quickly started shoving the feathers away to look for me

"Looking for this?" Lucas speaks holding the card in his hands. A groan escapes my mouth at the scene"How did you get it again!"

He gives me a smirk, the mischief dancing in his blue eyes "Well a certain someone was too busy hitting me that she didn't realise it"

I huff and walk over to him but before I can reach out for the card he shoves it in his pocket "Hm not so soon wildcat"

Not again!

I frown "What do you mean?" I ask with a hint of suspicion. His smirk increases as he takes a step closer towering over me. I take a step back with his movements, my back leaning behind to keep the space as much as possible

"W-what?" I try to keep my voice stable but somehow it slips

He leans forward and I freeze in my position when his breath hits my ear sending a shiver down my spine "Clean the mess you created"

I blink in surprise unable to process his words. He moves back giving me some space to breathe. "Yeah well this" he points at the bed and floor "is because of you" he moves his finger to point at me

My eyes squint at his words "Oh please, even you were hitting back. It's because of both of us!" I snap, getting angrier

"You started it, now you finish it too," he says, his voice deep and commanding. I raise my eyebrow at his tone, he thinks he can order me around. I step closer to him "You think you can order me around?"

He stares down at me, his eyes cold and unforgiving. The smirk was no longer on his face, replaced by a serious expression "Do it or I will burn your card"
