Christian's POV~

I laughed as she shivered when I whispered her good night greetings .

I smiled at the memory .

Wait . What ?

Did I just smiled because of her ?

I think I've drunk too much for my own good .I stumbled and went towards my baby, my bike.

Yes .

I know I love her .But she is the only thing who have been with me through thick and thin of my life . I bought it with my own income , no not of bad things but only by working in a restaurant. I smiled and climbed on it . I reached the place we decided to meet. Me, Jake, James, Louis and Ethan are going to hang out for some more time and meet other group there.

It was around 1 or 2 am in the morning ,I got home from Katherina's party at around 11 and then I went to my favorite place and we are here in this dark alley ways waiting for them to arrive . People of all type hang over here as there is a restricted area near by it and there are shops of all kind {Drugs, drinks and stuffs} opened for 24/7.

Suddenly I heard a lot of noise , chanting a name . The sounds were muffled sounding something like 'mighty' or 'light-y'. Then the sound got louder for a second and then died down eventually giving a sigh of relief to me. I was so much tired that I wasn't even able to stand properly so I decided to sit on my bike and then I saw something that made me confused. I saw a figure in the dark end of the alley, a silhouette of someone standing watching my every move . I couldn't see the face but from what I could guess was that it belongs to a girl and then again from girl a question popped up in my head.

'What must Katherina be doing now?'

Wait . Wait I just said her name. I think I'm too much drunk to think properly.

I was snapped out of my trance of that Jones by a tapping. I turned around slowly , like in a movie. Ok now I'm damn sure I'm too much drunk.

"Hey! Man . What's up?" James asked and I shook my head in response not want to do anything but to sleep .

"Yea! Man is everything ok? You seemed to be troubled ." I again shook my head and creasing of confusion took place on all of their face .They may be jocks and bad boys but still they care , care for me deeply. I smiled.

"I just need some rest I'm too tired to talk and hang out . I'll talk to you guys tomorrow. Ok?"I said and climbed on my baby riding to my destination .

I saw the light of the room was off and the window was closed but the curtains were parted and I could only place things here and there , I placed the bed and the covers were around the body . I smiled at my foolishness . I was currently standing outside her window . It has a tree but it's very difficult to climb over and no not because of anything dirty . I just thought to check on her. Dirty minded people . I couldn't climb the tree but there was a pipe that was stuck out and were nailed bars here and there as if anyone could climb through it easily .

I came down as quietly as I could. I don't want her to wake up and freak out without any reasons.

She's your typical stereotype girl but there was something different that I couldn't place it. I then went to my house and climbed through the ladder I placed before sneaking out for the last time . Because we are moving to somewhere .

I don't know . I hate surprises .

Katherina's POV~

I woke up with a banging sound and very much .Much Much. noise from the outside. I turned around and covered my face with pillow. I hate waking up so soon. Specially after –

Shit! I have school. Oh no!

I woke up as fast as I could which happens to be me to fall down. I started crawling and reached to my closest and found out the dress I kept there last night . Yes I do that because I know I'm a clumsy girl .

Oh no no no I'm too late .

I quickly took a shower , brushed my teeth with one hand and with other I dried my hair with blow dryer . I quickly got dressed and saw my reflection in the mirror. I hate to so much make up but I have to I quickly put some concealer and some eyeliner and pink cheery lip-gloss . Now I'm ready .

Yes I'm a nerd kind of girl but I do makeup and No . I'm not bullied or anything else . I get as much as respect as the jocks , Players and those cheer leaders gets. Reason I'm a smart ass girl.

Every single student and teacher know this and me . Not fully ...

I rushed downstairs to see my mom in a beautiful dress and dad in casuals . What made me shocked much more is that the fact they are--

1 – at home.

2--Dressed like nothing.

3—Smiling like an Idiot .

I know you must be thinking what so shocking ?

Well you see my parents are not at home when I wake up or when I get to bed .

So I never see them at home and dressed so casually as well as fashionably too.

And lastly they were genuinely smiling . It's weird . I got some vibe of something bad from them .

My eyes automatically narrowed and moved closer to them . They were still smiling .

There is definitely something wrong with them.

"I ask you only once. Where are my parents and what you did to them? And you should know I know Khufu and I'm a black belt." I said with my hand in front of in chopping position .

They laughed.

They seriously, freaking Laughed ?

I gave them my Are-You-Guy-kidding- Look and they stooped.

"Honey" My mom said and looked at my dad. They were having their parental talks with their eyes . Psychic.

I know that look that says Will-You-Tell-Her-Or-I-Should- look.

Then it hit me .

"We are moving . Please tell me no . Please." I said with a puppy dog face.

"NO , no . no Darling we are not but..."

She stopped . Why the hell the suspense? I hate it

"But?" I encouraged her. I held my breath and she sighed deeply.

And then It all came tumbling down.

"We are having new neighbors."

"And" I know there is something they are hiding.

"TheyarrenonotherthentheDukes." Both of them said.

I gave them a look telling to say slowly and one at a time.

"They."

"Are."

"Non."

"Other."

"Then."

"The."

"Duke's.
