Opposites attract

Chapter XI

Akuma

"What the fuck is wrong with you, you bitch!" I yelled as I barged into the living room where Luna was sitting her stupid ass on my fucking couch with Mika who'd just got here, "Mika save your fucking girlfriend because I'm going to fucking strangle her" I seethed, my body trembled with rage, "First of all stop swearing, secondly what did Luna even do?" Mika said, keeping her voice calm and level. I glared at the silver-haired nuisance in the room, "This fucker-" I started to say, "Stop. Swearing," Mika said through gritted teeth, I rolled my eyes, "Whatever, Luna started talking about my childhood to Niko!" I said, now Mika was glaring at her girlfriend, who put her hands up defensively, "He was upset I was tryna cheer him up by saying that Akuma doesn't recognise emotions the way we do. It's not like I lied! I didn't even fucking mention your childhood! Why would I?! I don't know shit about it!" Luna said her voice progressively getting louder. Mika looked at me, "What the fuck did you do to upset him?" she said, I stared at her in disbelief "So this is my fault now!" I said, outraged. "Can you guys stop yelling?" a voice behind me said softly, I turned around coming face to face with Niko, he looked tired, my anger died and I quietly apologised, Niko didn't answer me and went back to his room. I turned back to the girls, "Get. Out." I said through gritted teeth, Mika got up and dragged her girlfriend with her, I rubbed my face to keep myself from collapsing out of exhaustion, so many things had happened in one night. I dragged my feet as I walked to my room, gently closing the door, then I flopped onto my bed without even changing my clothes.

💙😎💙

I woke up to someone softly shaking me, I slowly opened my eyes, The first thing I see is Niko, shirtless. I yelped, grabbing my pillow and throwing it at him. Niko laughed softly as he caught the pillow with ease, (A.N let's ignore that firstly, these past 10 chapters have happened in a span of 2-3 maybe even 4 days and secondly, that Akuma, a trained hitman, who's killed thousands of people, got startled by his crush being shirtless) I got up from my bed, remember that I still the same clothes on from yesterday, I looked at Niko who was still staring at me, "Are you gonna say anything?" I said, Niko shrugged before saying, "There's nothing much to say, I just woke you up because there's an hour and a half left until class starts," Niko said before leaving my room, I started grabbing all my stuff from around my room,I took a quick shower and changed into fresh clothes, when I went into the living room Niko was sitting on the couch reading something, I cme up behind him on the couch, "What are you reading?" I asked, Niko nearly through the book at me because of how badly I scared him, "Fucking christ! Don't do that!" he yelled, I smirked a litte, amused by his reaction. Niko did a once over on my outfit, his face going a little red, "You're not covering your tattoos?" he asked, "Do you want me to?" I said, Niko quickly shook his head, "No no it's fine. You look good! I mean you always look amazing- I mean- oh nevermind, you know what I meant" Niko said, his cheeks were tinted a dark red, "If you think I'm hot just say that Pupetto," I said, loving the way Niko became flustered by the pet name. Suddenly Niko walked over to me, he pinned me to the back of the couch, his head dipping to my neck, I let out a low groan as he marked my neck, "In case Lia gets any ideas," he said, in a low voice, he smirked at me before heading off to his room, I checked my phone, there was a message from an unknown number

XXX XXXX XXXXXXX

Hi my love, we'll be together soon

Who are you?

Who I am isn't important, but know that 

I'll see you in class today

Seen

I put my phone away after checking the time, who the hell was this person? And how the fuck did they get my number? Niko came out of his room a few minutes later and we walked over to the school, Elliot and Van (A.N I just realised this is only the second time Van is ever mentioned in the book) joined us not long after I noticed Van was walking with a slight limp, "Really guys? On a school night?" I said, with an exasperated sigh, "What? Just because you have no one to bang doesn't mean we should all get blue balls" Elliot said looking at me with an unamused expression, then he turned to Niko, "You ever gotten laid, Nikolai?" he said, Niko nearly choked on his water. Once he stopped coughing he glared at Elliot, "My sex habits are my business, just because you're so open about it doesn't mean the rest of us have to be," he said, almost mirroring Elliot's previous words, "He's got you there babe," Van said with a slight chuckled, Elliot gasped, "Amor, you're supposed to be on my side!" he said, Van shrugged, "You took away my ability to walk properly," he said, Niko burst out laughing, it was a sound I would hear on repeat in my mind forever, Elliot smirked when he noticed me staring at Niko,I was about to respond when some tall brown hair boy came over to us, "Hi, I'm new, coould you show me to the headmaster's office?" he said, looking at me, "Uh...sure," I answered, something about this boy seemed off, I don't what it was exactly but I was getting bad vibes from him. I decided I was just being paranoid and said "Follow me," before turning and walking in the direction of the office, "Cool, I'm Andre, just so you know" the boy said falling into step next to me, our hands brushed and I put mine in my hoodie pocket, "Akuma," I said, "Are you Japanese?" Andre asked, "Half-Japanese, Half-British. How'd you know?" I answered, "Your name is the Japanese word for Devil, I'm from France by the way" Andre said, we were nearing the headmaster's office and I couldnt be more grateful, "You got a partner?" Andre asked me suddenly, I glanced at him to find him staring straight at me, "Nope, I don't really care for relationships," I said automatically, Andre seemed pleased with this answer we got to the headmaster's office and he thanked me before going in, "Akuma!" someone called from behind me, I turned to see Felix running towards me, "Hi Felix, what's up?" I answered, "I just ran into Amelia, she seemed pissed to see me," Felix said, "She's probably just miffed because of last night," I said, Felix gasped loudly. "You got back with her?!" He yelled, I quickly covered his mouth as people glanced at us, "No, you pervert!" I whispered, "She came over to bother me but Luna was there too," I explained, Felix slowly nodded, I smacked the back of his head, "Get your mind out the fucking gutter," I grumble, "But that's it's home," he joked, I rolled my eyes as the bell rang for class, I had P.E first, which I didn't mind to be honest, It meant I could take my mind of off things, I walked into the changing rooms where most of the guys had finished changing, all except Niko, Andre and Van. Andre was only just putting his bag down meanwhile Niko was looking for his shirt, Van had just put on his shirt, he gave me a quick nod before leaving, Niko looked up and saw me but didn'tsay anything, it felt weird to not here his voice, even if it wasn't a snarky remark, "Oh! Hi Akuma," Andre said cherrfully "Hi....Andre right?" I responded, genuinely not in the mood to talk to this guy, he stil gave me bad vibes, Niko had stopped looking for his shirt and was now discreetly watching us, Andre didn't seem to have noticed his presence, I got my gym clothes out of my locker, I took a little while to find them -don't ask- so by the time I did, I had forgotten about Andre's presence, I took off my shirt and heard a small gasp, I turned to see Andre looking at me, more specifically my tatoo-covered body, "Damn...." was all he said as his face went pink with blush, I looked over at Niko who had turned away but I smirked when I saw his cheeks tinted a dark pink, "You're built like a fucking tank," Andre exclaimed putting his hand up to touch my chest, I instinctively took a step back, Andre looked up at me, his eyes darkening for a secod before a cheerful smile appeared on his face, "Sorry, I should've asked," he said apologetically. I turned back to my task and changed into my gym clothes, and came out where the rest of the class was warming up. Luna, Mika, Elliot, Van and Felix all came over to me, "That new kid gives me bad vibes," they all said at the same time, "Someting is off about him," Mika said pensively, "Yeah, but I can't pinpoint what it is," Van muttered, "Maybe Luna can search him up or find some info on him?" Felix suggested, "Yeah, maybe....What's his name?" Luna said looking at me, but before I could respond someone else answered from behind me, "His name is Andre," I turned around so fast I nearly got whiplash, Niko was standing right in front of me, his eyes were dark and unwelcoming, an unusual expression to see from him, "His last name is Carvalho I think," he said, my blood went cold, "Andre Carvalho, shit, that's Alex Carvalho's nephew," Felix said quietly, we all looked at him, "What? I keep myself well informed," he said quickly, "In any case Felix is right,  Andre is Alex's nephew, his uncle is staying nearby here actually," Niko said, "What?" Felix said sounding surprised, "I thought he was-" "Felix, shut up," Mika cut him off, and Felix went quiet, for an assassin he wasn't a very quiet person, "He's what?" Niko prompted,  "Nevermind," Van said and Niko shivered, I remember the encounter he and Micheal had had with Van a while back, I also remember Niko having to carry Micheal to the hospital. "Alright pipsqueaks get your butts over here!" the coach shouted. We rushed over to where she stood, "Today we are playing basketball, later on we will make teams but for Luna, Elliot, Mika and Akuma you four will be split, Akuma and Elliot in one team and Luna and Mika in the other,  I've seen you lot play and I don't want injuries," the coach said pointedly as she looked at the four of us. We all pretended to be disappointed but secretly we didn't care, when it came to the four of us it was simply better to not let us play, doesn't matter how you put us, we will carry our teams, or we will stand back and watch them suffer an immense defeat. "Alrighty let's do some drills!" the coach said, handing us each a basketball before telling us the order of our training drills.

So, new character, what do you guys think of Andre? I'll "try" not to make him too much of a douchebag.
