Demon's POV:

She was fiesty. I like that.

I wasn't expecting to see anyone at the pond that day and I swear I was dreaming when I saw her.

Cassidy. She looked just like Miché, from the curly brown hair and blue eyes to her fiesty attitude. But I knew it wasn't Miché it couldn't be.

I was following her from the hall, walking slightly behind her. She didn't turn around to acknowledge me, but I knew you was aware of my presence.

She only spoke up once we reached the dorms, "Why are you following me?" She half yelled.

"If you must know, I was making sure you get home safe and then again, I live here too." I smirked down at her. She was short I liked that.

"Oh," she whispered.

There was more silence as we walked into the building, I knew she didn't know I stayed in the hallway adjacent to hers, but she would soon find out.

"So," I said breaking the silence as we reached her room. "What you going to do for the rest of the night?"

"Probably just gonna play some video games."

"Oh yes,I forgot you a secret gamer."

"Yeah, it's not really a secret though."

We were just standing in front of her door. It seemed like she was trying to get rid of me, but I wasn't going to leave so soon.

"Think you can beat me?" I smirked at her. I could see the wheels turning in her head. I could read her like a book, she may think she can hid herself, but not from me. "I'm the Halo master."

Cassidy looked up at me, her eyes showing the challenge. "Oh, you're on." She opened up the door and led me to her room. There dorm was way neater than the one I shared with Chase.

"Do you another controller?" I asked once we entered her room. I saw her shuffle around the room trying to pick up random items.

"Uhr, no I only have one."
"Okay I be right back. You get comfortable so long, it's going to be a long night"

...

When I came back Cassidy was sitting cross-legged on the bed in a tight back shorts and oversized vest, I could slightly see the black lace bra underneath. Damn she looked hot even in casual clothes and how she looked earlier. A simple black dress that showed of her curves to perfection, but I never told her that.

"You going to stand there and stare whole evening?"

Instead of responding I sat down and the bed next to her.

I smirked at her as I readied my controller.

Game on

That how we spent the rest of our evening. Back and forth. Winning some, losing others. Cassidy was a worthy opponent.

Some time later we heard the rest of the girls come back from the dance, it was well past 12am by then already.
We stayed quiet, so that they wouldn't know what we were up to.
Someone stopped in front of the door to hear listen for movement, but they must have only heard silence and continued on to their rooms.
We waited until everything settled again, before continuing with our gaming.

"Willing to make this interesting?" I asked Cassidy, pausing the game so that we could look at each other.

"Interesting, how?"

"A rendition of 20 question. For every hit you take, you have to answer a question."

Cassidy scrunched up her nose in a cute way, "I'm game."

Shot Cassidy.
"Where are you from?" I asked starting of easy.

"Originally San Francisco, currently North Carolina."

Shot Cassidy.
"Why did you come to boarding school?" I asked.

"Mom thinks I'm a rebel," she shrugged.

Shot Damon.
"Why are you here?"

"Dad says I'm a problem child," I said keeping my voice monotone, it was half the truth anyway.

Shot Cassidy.
"Do you have a boyfriend?"

Therewas a pause and I tried to act nonchalant.
"Well boyfriend is a loose term to me, but no. I don't have and never had one." I was vague, cause I don't believe she never had a boyfriend before.

Shot Damon.
"What happened between you and Chris?"
"We use to have a fling, but it wasn't suppose to be any feelings," I said truthfully, "but you can see how that ended."

Shot Damon.
"Wildest thing you have ever done."

I looked over at Cassidy and saw she was looking at me too. I gave her a wink and smirk. "Mind out of the gutter Damon."

"Fine. I suppose the wildest thing would be skydiving."

"That's so cool." Cassidy gushed, with a twinkle in her eye.

"It was." I smiled at ghost of a smile.

The silence hung thick after that.

Shot Damon.

I was falling behind, I thought as Cassidy asked her question. "Any girlfriends?"

"You ask that, almost like you expect me to be a manwhore." I chuckled

"Well?"

"No girlfriends. Not much of one for commitment."

Shot Cassidy.
"This is getting boring," I paused the game. "I'll be right back."

I quietly left and made my way down the hall to my room. As I entered the room I immediately knew Chase had brought a girl back to his room.
It was visible with the slight tilt of the couch, the pillows were lying skew and his tie was lying next to it on the floor.

"Well at least someone's getting some," I whispered and made my way to my room.
