In a long time, I felt good. Like liquid sunshine was coursing through my veins and I was absolutely awake.

The world was brighter, more colorful. The sun wasn't so harsh- instead it warmed my skin instead of burning me.

Even Ophelia's scathing comments didn't faze me. I was actually happy for once, and it was the kind of happiness that was tangible and real.

The thought of going to school didn't put a damper on my day.

I had to stop myself from skipping like an idiot and instead walk into class like a normal human being.

Seeing Leo sitting in the seat beside mine woke me up from my daydream immediately. Especially when he had that cliché smirk on his face.

"And here I thought you were dead," I said, arching an eyebrow at him.

Leo simply proceeded to give me a subtle smirk. "Lucky for you, Bambi, I'm very much alive. Aren't you glad?"

"No, not really," I replied blandly, sitting myself down.

"Aw, don't be upset. I'm here now. I didn't think you missed me that much."

A sudden thought crossed my mind- I ignored his statement and kept my voice low. "Was it. . .angel business?"

His pale eyes grew slightly darker and his jaw clenched minutely.

"So that's a yes," I concluded using my mastered Sherlock detection skills.

His continued lack of a response was the answer to my question. "Look, Bambi, it's nothing you have to worry about it, everything's fine. The guys upstairs just wanted to check in with all the guardians."

I gave him another suspicious look before moving my attention back to the teacher.

Leo's low voice was suddenly next to my ear, full of warning. "But you and Eros need to be cautious. You never know who's watching or listening. Be careful. Eros is my best friend and I trust that he's taking precautions, but you need to watch out for yourself too."

My heart skipped a beat at the thought of Eros being hurt- what would they do to him? "Doesn't that mean I shouldn't trust you?"

Leo instantly replied without missing a beat. "I'm an exception. And I thought we were friends. That actually hurt a little."

I rolled my eyes at him, but a smile creeped onto my face. "Where did you get that idea from?"

He didn't answer, but a slow smile spread onto his lips. "Just a hunch."
