Chapter 16

After he said that I looked at him bewildered so bewildered I took a step back, made to love him? Him! Of all people, the one that wants me dead I had to laugh at this. I just couldn't register it in my mind, it just couldn't wrap around the thought of me and Devin 'together'.

I laughed out loud and Devin looked at me with a frown on him face, a frown? Oh shit he's serious.

"Yes I'm serious." He spoke

I looked around then bit my lower lip. Aiolos was looking between the two of us obviously confused. It was getting kind of awkward because nobody was talking after that, I felt like slowly backing away and running to the lunchroom because I didn't get any food and I was getting hungry.

"Don't even try to get away Aglaia. We need to talk."

I looked at him and pouted "but I'm hungry you guys have kept me from my food and I think today they serving chicken strips." I whined

That caught Devin's attention "we having chicken strips?"

I nodded

He looked between me and Aiolos "uh let's continue this conversation in the lunchroom, yeah?"

Aiolos shrugged and then we started walking down the hallway towards the lunch room. Devin snaked his arms around my waist, I attempted to slap his arms away. I attempted and failed, he was not going to let go anytime soon. But it was kind of nice to be in his embrace again, he doesn't do it often. His hands covered my hands while we walked, they were warm and soft.

When we got to the lunchroom there was no line people were mostly sitting down talking quietly amongst themselves, when we were going to get our lunch Devin let go and got his tray as well as Aiolos and me. I walked up to my usual table then I looked over to the table that the blue bloods resided, I was torn between which table to go to. So I just went to one of the empty tables Devin and Aiolos fallowed they sat down with me and we started eating our food in silence.

It felt like all eyes were on us it wasn't a way I would like to eat, with people staring at you. And this silence was deadly, somebody should break it but I don't want to be the one to do that. I peeked at the people staring at me, ok first it was James he wasn't being very subtle and next I could see the fan girl's death glares. I sent them a smile, hey may as well enjoy it while it lasts.

I looked to Devin and Aiolos then sighed "could someone please say something this silence is unbearable."

Devin reached over and grabbed one of my chicken strips and plopped it in his mouth, his eyes were filled with amusement.

"Devin that's my chicken strip." I pouted why was I pouting they're just chicken strips, I mentally sighed then picked up my own chicken strip and took a bite it was pretty good for school food

The silence went on for I don't know how long, I finally got tired of it and got up from the table and walked over to the table Kelly sat at with the rest of the gang. They looked up at me then back at the table I was previously sitting at then back at me.

"Aglaia is that the new guy, the one in this picture?" Destiny asked as the put the phone up to me showing the picture from earlier, I'm surprised she didn't remember him from the party. I wonder if anybody did....

"Yeah that's him, what about him." I said as I sat down next to Kelly

"He's fucking hot; no wait hot doesn't even do him justice he's sexy, know what he's just indescribable." Destiny looked back at Devin then to me again "are you really dating him?"

I sighed "no I'm not we're just uh" I looked back at him "uh friends?"

"Well since your just friends I'm going to go make a move." She stood from the table and walked over to the table Devin sat at. Alone
