Immortals of The Zodiac

Chapter 3 - Remember?

A/N

Hey guys I'm back! 18 reads??? Im so excited!! Even though it doesnt sound like a lot it means quite a bit to me. I also added a picure of Ren to the right. I chose the Korean actor Gong Yoo. I you wanna see some of his acting I recommend his drama "Big". You can watch the drama subbed in English on viki.com. He is a bubbly person so it was hard to find a photo of him where he looked suave like the Ren I imagined. If you imagined Ren differently, don't let my image cloud yours!! Here is the third chapter of IoTZ! Ily ✌❤❤❤❤

Eriss POV

"Eriss?"

Oh my god. I think I'm going to faint. Pull it together!

"Y-yeah?"

"Hi."

"Long time no see, Ren."

HI? HI? That's all he can say to me after disappearing like that? My anger began to increase and I think thats the only thing that fueled my sudden confidence.

"Are you here with someone?" He glanced down at the half eaten croissant and cup of coffee across from me.

His eyes clouded with anger. Jealousy? No that's impossible.

"Yeah. I am." .

"Oh," he began to shift uncomfortably and bit his lip.

Why did he have to bite his lip? His delicious, plump, soft, kissable li- NO. Stop it Eriss you are better than this!

"I mis-"

"BRO?" Robbie walked up to Ren and gathered him into a brotherly hug.

"Hey man! E told me you were in Cali!" Ren looked over Robbie's shoulder at me with a quizzical look in his eyes.

Oh fuck! I forgot that oaf was in the bathroom. I dashed my pride and silently pleaded with my eyes.

"Yeah...I just got back in." He began to hug Robert back, never taking his eyes off of my mine.

Thankfully his penetrating gaze didn't last very long since the man hug was soon broken. Robbie grinned at me then back at Ren and shook his head. I fiddled with the hem of my sweater and stared into my lap. A sudden rush of shyness and docility filled me. I felt exactly as I did when I first fell under Ren's charms.

"Well, I better get going then!" My head snapped up, and I could only imagine the look of horror on my face.

"WHY?"

I must have spoken above normal Starbucks noise level, because I had a few strange stares thrown my way.

Robbie flinched, and looked at me as though I had a line of crack on my upper lip.

"I need to visit mom, " His tone was slow and condescending as though explaining a simple fact to a a child.

I began to reach for my things and rise out of the booth.

"Im coming wi-"

"And you need to catch up with Ren." He placed a large firm hand on my shoulder and pushed me with a thump back into my seat.

I looked up at him and sighed.

He had a resolved look in his eye, and there was no combating a mule like my brother.

"Ok, tell mom I said hi." I sighed at the floor in defeat.

"I'll try to squeeze that in between my ass whoppings." He smiled at me and gave my shoulder a squeeze.
