FINDING HOPE Elizabeth

Chapter 12 The Green-eyed Monster

--------------Calliel's pov------------

WTF is going on???!!! I had been looking for her when we arrived at Casey's bar. All I learned from my mom and dad was this Liam character was the same guy that brought Hope to dad. He had been out of the country and then moved back to the US, back to Texas to visit his sister Casey. He saw Hope and asked her to be his girlfriend. Why in the H-E- double hockey-sticks did she say yes? She hardly knew him. I'm not going to take this, she is mine. Hope doesn't love him, she couldn't. I'm the one she knows, I'm the one she loves. She told me so. OK she was 13 at the time, damn it, I should have told her how I felt before, damn Raziel for making promise to wait until she was 18. I will win her back somehow.

"Hurry up my Love" Liam chuckles and Hope steps out of the hallway. Damn she looks so beautiful in a pink sleeveless dress that skims above her knees and white boots Then she had to kiss Liam as he helps her on with a white jacket. I am going to puke now. They are chatting with mom and dad, about tonight's  Valentine's Day date. 

I almost throw up in my mouth as I hear his terms of endearments to Hope. She spent New Years with that Scottish creeper in Houston at some party. I really thought our parents would have said no, but they trust him since Casey and Mike went with them to chaperone. I don't get it. He comes in our house like he belongs here. Seven seems to be the only one who agrees with me that Liam is bad news. I eat my cereal slowly enjoying the thought of him being gone soon. Hope let it slip that creeper has meetings in Houston and Dallas next couple of weekends. Good he won't be coming for 2 weeks, then I can go out with her myself. 

Stop thinking about her and go out with some other girl, says Raz in my head.

Get out of my head Raz, I protest.

I will if you go out with someone else on a date or block your mind! Your driving me crazy with your obsessive thoughts of Hope. Raz sounded mad. And while we are on the subject  ENOUGH with the angry dark metal music and Bryan Adams songs. I will strangle you bro. You will ask the first girl you meet today on a date.

OK bro, and I decide to ask the first girl I see at the gym, out on a date to get Raz off my back. At least I know she will be fit if she's at the gym. And we can get some training in with the other twins,  Mike and Raph. Especially since Mike and Raph were going back on duty. Raph has to give us the low down on Casey since Mike won't tell us anything about his New Years Eve "date" with Casey. Especially since he and Raph hang out at Casey's bar alot now.

Raziel agrees and lets me know he would go with me since he just finished dressing. Sometimes mind link is handy, mostly not.

*Rascal Flatts's What Hurts the Most playing in my head*

Everyone had a partner except me, sparring in the gym. Hope made us even. All the twins had paired up, Mike and Raph always pair up. This was how it use to be before Hope, I was the odd man out.  I felt defeated, now that Hope had a boyfriend, it's been different. I feel lost, disconnected somehow. Tried my darndest to tell her about my dreams and me and her being soulmates but she was so happy with Liam. I couldn't bring myself to hurt her or be selfish for my own happiness. I'm still jealous, but I love her too much, even if I hurt myself by keeping it all in. I can only try to be her brother and friend from now on.

"Hey handsome, you want to spar with me?" says this sexy voice bringing me out of my thoughts. I know my mouth dropped as I watch Hope continues to do warm up stretches. "Angel, Sorry I'm late, I lost track of time. Liam's going to do some work on his ipad while we train in the gym. So I have 2 hours until he picks me up."  

"I thought you forgot me." I know I have a stupid grin on my face. I'm so happy she's here with me. "Hope, thanks for not ditching me for Liam." Sincerely looking at her face, hoping she doesn't see the love radiating from my sky blue eyes.
