ETHAN'S POV

"...Maybe, we would still be mates, if you didn't fall." I knew that voice immediately. Before walking around the corner fully, I looked around it and saw Grayson and Aurora talking to a Yellow and an Orange. I hear a lovely voice in my head saying, "Turn back around, my love. They might not be able to tell you by your hair, but they will be able to tell you by your face." I nod and quickly walk away from them. 

My stomach started to growl. "What is that weird noise coming from me?" The lovely voice laughed some and said, "You must eat, drink, and sleep, like all humans on the Earth realm. I provided you shelter, which I will show you after you eat." I have never eaten before. Grayson has told me about the food here, but I always thought it sounded gross. I look around to see if there were any food options around, and the only place I was able to see was a pizzeria. I walk up to the door and open it. I jump some when I hear a bell go off. I look around to find it above the door. I close the door and the bell does not ring. "That is weird." I look back to the pizzeria where I got some unsettling stares from others. I clear my throat to try and hide my now blushing cheeks as I walk up to the front counter. The older lady behind the counter smiled at me, "What can I get you, sweetie?" I smile at her, and feel something in my pocket. I reach into my pocket and pulled out a wallet full of money. "You better hide that. People are thieves around here." The older lady said causing me to quickly shoved it back in my pocket. "Can I get your house special?" I ask the lady who laughed some, "Have you never had pizza before?" I shake my head, "No, ma'am." She smiled and asked, "Would you like to try some pineapple pizza?" My mouth started to water, as I nodded my head. I pull out my wallet to pay the nice older lady. She pushed it away and said, "It is on the house. A pretty brunette such as yourself should have had pizza by now. It would be wrong of me to take your money." She smiled and I say, "Thank you so much. My name is Ethan, what is your's?" She responded, "I am Liliana. Nice to meet you, Ethan. You remind me a lot of my son." I sit down at the counter on a bar stool, as we continued our conversation. I just noticed her bright white hair braided down her back, while she turned around to submit my order to the cook. "What is your son's name?" She looked down and I could tell she was saddened, "His name was Abel. He died about three years ago in the war." I reached out and touched her hand. "I bet he had the best heart out there, since he had you as a mother to show him all of the love imaginable." She smiled up at me with tears in her eyes, "Thank you, Ethan." Her voice was barely a whisper. I nod and return the smile with one of my own. 

We don't say anything until we hear a bell from the door again causing me to jump. I look up to find the gray haired girl from earlier, Scarlet. She must have felt my eyes staring at her, because she quickly turned her head and met my eye contact. I blush as she waves at me. I wave back and felt a slight tap on my shoulder. "She is gorgeous. I am going to up size your pizza, so you can split it with her." Liliana whispered to me and winked. I start to feel nervous as Scarlet walked up to me. She is very beautiful, but I am with Aurora, so I must refrain from looking at her lustfully. "Hey, funny seeing you here. What are you eating?" Her voice was soft, but strong. "I am eating the pineapple pizza, would you like to share?" I ask her while looking into her dark almost black eyes. "Sure. Thanks."
