Dominari in Timore (BrOhm)

Chapter 3

(Bryce's POV)

The minute the day ended the others were already heading towards the lake. I walked slowly to my dorm room; just allowing myself time to think. Should I have told them about my fear?  I mean, they were my friends, but then again I'd only known them for all of 2 days.

But now I began to question, why was I all the sudden getting nightmares again? They'd stopped when I was 13, and I hadn't had one since, so why now?

"Hey Bryce, wait up!" Someone called. I turned and saw Ohm hurrying towards me. I instantly blushed a little. Why was I so infatuated with this one person? I had to admit, I found him very attractive, even though I had never seen his eyes. Why did he wear that cloth anyways? Was he possibly hiding his power? Though if he was, I don't understand why. This school was a place to show off your power, somewhere that you could feel proud of what you could do.

"Hey Bryce, where'd all your friends go?" Ohm said once he caught up with me.

"Oh, the went to the lake, I just didn't feel like joining." I told him. He nodded, giving me one of his breath taking smiles.

"Well in that case, do you mind if I join you this afternoon? I have nothing to do, and I'd like to get to know you better." I didn't answer right away. One part of me wanted to instantly agree and let him, but the other was a bit more cautious. Why did he choose me, of all people, to want to hang out? I was no one special; I didn't even have a power. Then again, it's not like he knew that.

"Alright, you can join me." I said. He grinned widely at my response. We began the walk to my dorm, but all the way there I couldn't help but feel like something bad was going to happen soon.

"So, what do you want to do?" I asked as we stepped into my room. I managed to brush away the bad feeling I had on the way to my room. Ohm shrugged as he sat down on the floor next to my bed.

"Well, I was thinking we could just get to know each other."

"Booring." I said. Ohm just rolled his eyes.

"You got a better idea?" He asked. I shook my head. "Then it's settled."

For a while, it was just casual thins like color, movie, book, ice cream flavor, etc.

"Power?" He asked. I froze, putting my head down.

"I, uh, I don't have one." I mumbled. He looked at me with a frown.

"Hey it's fine. Don't worry about it." Ohm said. I only nodded.

"So what about you, what's your power?" Ohm tensed at the question.

"If I tell you, you have to swear not to say anything okay? I say that because I'm going to show you by taking off the blindfold. You're the first person I've showed this to in a long time. Do you swear you won't say anything?"

"I swear." I said. Ohm reached behind his head, grabbing the ends of the blindfold. He lowered it slowly, and I could only stare in awe as he looked at me.

His eyes were a beautiful shade of grey-green. But the most fascinating thing about them was that they seemed to glow, lighting up impossibly bright every now and then.

"They're beautiful..." I breathed out, completely entranced. He blushed lightly, which only added to the intensity of his eyes. As I looked though, I saw at the corner of his right eye was a symbol of a small lightning bolt, surrounded by clouds.

"Electricity." I said, without even thinking. Ohm nodded, moving to put the blindfold back on. As though it moved on its own, my hand reached out and grabbed his wrist, stopping him.

"W-will you keep it off... at least when it's just you and me?" I asked, pulling my hand away, my skin tingling where I touched him. He seemed to think about it for a moment before nodding.

"Does that mean you'd like me around more often?" He smirked. I rolled my eyes.

"I may not be opposed to the idea." I joked, smiling now.

"Well, then maybe we could make this a regular thing. You know, since I know you'd be dying to see me." Ohm laughed.

"Don't get so cocky Mr. Wrecker. Let's not forget who wanted to come and hang out with me today." He put his hands up in fake surrender.

"Alright, alright, now where were we?"

"I believe we were playing some form 20 questions."

"Ah, right. Favorite position?"

"Ohm!"

But as we continued, the feeling was still there.

(A/n) hey, sorry this one's a bit later, I've been working on a play for a class of mine, and I have to write an entire script in one night with no help from the others in my group. It's also a bit shorter, but I've got some stuff planned for the next chapter. Until tomorrow
