OUR BOND

(21)

Noel's POV

"Why are you up so early?" Damien who was sitting on the kitchen island asked.

"I'm gonna get ready to go to school" He looked at me.

"Why?"

"What do you mean why it's a Monday"

"I thought you know, you would want to stay considering the current situation won't you feel uncomfortable at school?" I got the bottle of water I came down for.

"Oh, no it won't be a problem not many know that I'm related to you guys"

"Alright" he said as if he wanted to say more.

"I'm gonna go get ready, can you take me?"

"Yeah sure" I thanked him and prepared to go upstairs to get ready.

"You can't avoid him forever you know" he said with a little amusement.

"I'm not avoiding him I'm just delaying meeting him"

I went into my room and got ready, by half past seven I was done and went downstairs where everyone apart from Stefan and uncle who remained at the hospital was having breakfast.

"Goodmorning guys, Damien I'm ready to go" I said still standing.

"Breakfast?" he asked.

"I'm not hungry" the all so famous one eyebrow raise made a comeback.

"I'll eat this then" I took an apple.

"Why don't you just sit down and eat? What are you in a hurry for?" Big mouth Luca questioned.

"She's trying to avoid her dad" Sandro said.

"Guardian" I said correcting.

"Why are you avoiding your dad"? Luca yet again asked, I sent him a glare.

"What's with the 21 Questions?, can we go please?" I directed the last part to Damien.

He wiped his mouth and stood up.

"Angela you're going with me or you'll come with these fools?" People did not like the comment but because this was The Damien Cassano no one retaliated.

"Uhm.." I could tell she was stuck between travelling with Damien alone once he dropped me off or the chance to travel with the others and be the only princess.

"I'll go with you" she carried her tiny but yet stylish purse, dabbed her mouth clean like a princess and followed Damien out.

"Bye guys"

"Bye Noey" I followed Angela and Damien to the garage.

"Come sit at front Noel" Damien said seeing that I was going to sit at the back with Angela.

He started the car and we left. They dropped me off and went to the hospital.

Going to the lecture hall I got my usual stares, today they were a little intense than usual but I realized it was because of the bandages wrapped around my hands.

"Oops" Said the person after intentionally bumping into me. I looked up just to see the last person I wanted to see.

Alex's fake blonde girlfriend.

"Oh I'm sorry did that hurt?" she asked with her annoying voice.

I just sighed and planned to ignore her and leave but one of her minions decided to touch me.

"If you don't want to lose that hand you will never ever touch me again got it" I said calmly yet strongly.

She let go of me looking all frightened.
