MONSTERS (Z. M)

Chapter 7

Cherry

I watched Zayn dissappear between the buildings, before I harshly wiped my temple where he had kissed without my permission, leaving his germs on me. He was just really weird sometime. Why on earth did he look at Regina that way?

I didn't know what it was with that idiot, but even with the slightest move, Zayn managed to flare my anger to the sky. Even that peck that only jestered friendship revolted me. I was no psychic but his aura screamed of danger and deception and evil and most of all, questionability.

Sometimes when you thought you just had him all figured out, you get a smirk reminder that he was way complicated than you could ever imagine.

"Let me call my roommate as we wait for them to finish making your room. I get the feeling it is going to take a while ."Henry said and I nodded in agreement. I couldn't help but wonder what they were fixing. Was it a new building they were putting up? That was silly and unrealistic but what I was sure of, is that they were probably scanning for secret cameras. As if.

I watched Henry fish out his I phone, then dialed a number before placed it against his left ear. It did not even take half a second and I think the person of interest, answered.

" Yes, we arrived awhile ago. Sure, at the graduation square. " So that was a graduation square?
how rusty was my guessing skills? I thought it was a field, football field for women even, because the grass seemed so soft and neatly trimmed.

I balanced uncomfortably on my right leg and when I felt the burn, I shifted my weight to my left foot.Regina was talking to the weird body guards that stood at attention, with their hends folded gracefully in front of the. They looked scary. I just didn't know for how long they were going to torment me.

"Do you want to sit down ?" Henry asked softly and I shook my head no. I didn't want to bother him because he had been by my side since my mom died. Plus I really, really wanted to see his roommate and I got the feeling that if we moved even an inch, we were never going to see him on time .

What was wrong with me?

"Alright statue. " He reached for my hair and started messing with it. I fought with all the energy I had even though I was no match for my huge brother. He only stopped when my hands were in the air implying my surrender. When I get my voice, he and I were going to have words. He couldn't just do that as if we were still seven. I told myself silently

And that was campus, what if people saw all that and started laughing at me?

"I love you sis." I smiled leaving my hair be. I was going to walk around like that to embarrass him for having a sister who looked like electricity outlet.

My eyes went back to staring at where Zayn had disappeared to, as if it was a portal something dear to me was supposed to pass through.

Then I saw an angel walked out. He seemed to be walking in a slow motion and his  brown hair seemed to bounce every time his foot made contact with the grounds.

I was good at measurements and was pretty sure, he was around 1.75 slightly shorter than Henry but way taller than me since I was only 1.59.

He was wearing a casual black jeans and a black t-shirt, his neck was clean and free of tattoos unlike that imbecile, Zayn, who was covered in tattoos.

When he was a few steps from us, I couldn't close my  mouth at the way his body glimmered under the light.
"wow!" I thought once he was standing in front of me and we were staring at each other like we were the only ones on earth. When his brown eyes captured mine, I felt like the world had  come to a stop. I couldn't breathe, I couldn't swallow leaving my body in an agonizing thirst and I couldn't blink, afraid that I might open my eyes to find him vanished.
