"I know I'm not going to be in your head all the time. But once you know me, I'll be forever in your heart. " ― ,
Zion's POV
"Why are you still awake? It's late. You still have an early class tomorrow." My mom said when she saw me half running down the stairs.
"I can't sleep." I walked passed her and headed to the balcony to catch some fresh air. Maybe it would help removed the stubborn cobwebs sticking in my head.
"Why?" Mom followed me.
"I don't know." I replied.
"Something's bothering you?"
I shrugged my shoulders then sat comfortably on a rattan chair, putting my feet up on the center table.
"I'll get you some milk. It will help you sleep." She spun around and left.
The truth? I was really bothered. For days already.
I kept on thinking about Claire... and it became very disturbing.
It started at the bulletin board, when we held our eyes for merely a second. I was surprised how my heart beats faster at that moment. I felt something deep inside me awakened.
The incident at the cafeteria made me think of her more. I was waving back at London when my eyes caught Claire's. I couldn't help but stared at her for seconds. She looked so beautiful sitting there, eating her lunch and making swift glances in my direction.
The day I saw her sleeping at the Theatre Rose room, I stayed there for minutes, watching her. I realized I could stare at her forever. And when I saved her in the hallway, I felt like I was meant to protect her. The feeling of not wanting to let go of her was so strong. I wanted her to stay where she was... in my arms forever.
But I had to let go. As quickly as I could. For Izzy.
Izzy was not happy that I rescued Claire. He was supposedly her knight in shining armour. Her hero. Her saviour. Not me.
That was the reason I avoided Claire. I didn't like this strange feeling I had for her. It was so wrong. It was like betraying my best friend, Izzy.
