Devious Desires

Chapter 4

Trinity's POV

I got off the double decker bus at PIcadilly Circuis, thinking that maybe, just maybe, shopping may help me release my stress with this Arias guy.

I walked into Next, just looking around on what they had. It felt weird shopping in Central London, when I was so used to typical American brands like American Eagle Outfitters. I reached the back of the store, and didn't find anything I felt like I should buy so I walked out of the store and walked into the streets of Central London and just walked around. Eventually my legs grew tired of just window shopping and not really doing something worth while so I got back on a bus and went into the Underground to go back home.

I walked up the blocks from the Underground to the house, and as I walked I went pass the community park where I saw a familiar figure sitting on the benches.I walked over to the guy that has stressed me out just within one morning, and noticed his head resting on his palms which were resting on his knees.

I sat down on the bench next to Arias, and he quickly lifted up his head and looked into my eyes.

"I'm so sorry." He started off, and was about to ramble but I cut him off.

"Don't be, I'm used to being compared with my dead sister." I looked up to the blue, cloudless sky.

"Please don't say that." All of a sudden he grabbed my arm and when I looked at him he let go.

"Just please don't say that. I wasn't comparing you with your sister."

"Sure." Is all I could've said.

I got up from the bench and started to head back home when someone held my arm.

I turned around to see Arias with his head down.

"I really don't care or give a damn if you let me or not, but I'm going to help you with your sister's investigation." I felt dumbfounded to ever have a slight feeling that he could've liked me, and then I had a weird feeling. I didn't know how he found out about my sister's investigation.

"Wait. How did you-"

"Don't ask questions, just know that I'll help you."
