Your P.O.V
Setting - Ava's apartment, 7:30 in the morning.

I woke up due to the blinding sunlight. I turned, I noticed Leif wasn't next to me anymore.

Where'd he go?

I saw everyone else resting. Pierce was standing, Rhys sat, Asch slept on the long bed and Noi on the floor.

"AHHHHH!" A scream came out of Ava's chambers.

We all stood up, and rushed to Ava's chambers.

There we saw Leif with one of his daggers raised up high, while looking down at Ava's terrified face.

I rush next to Leif and pulled his wrist.

"Leif! What the hell do you think you're doing!?" I asked, pissed.

"Why do you keep disobeying my orders?!" Questions an angry Asch.

"Sorry Ava," I said before rushing out of the room with Leif.

The other Daemos followed outside.

"Leif, you can't keep trying to kill her!" I yelled.

"I can't help it!" Leif argued.

"Leif, I swear, I will take your twin daggers if you try to kill Ava again!" I threatened.

"You can't do that! And you can't tell me what to do!" Leif yelled.

"Yes, yes I can!" I said, crossing my arms.

"Both of you, SILENCE!" Asch yelled.

We both went silent.

"Leif, we need you not to kill the prisoner yet. We need her to tell us about the human culture." Rhys said calmly.

Leif rolled his eyes.

"OKAY, so you guys decide who's going with me to the mall," Ava said.

"What is this mall?" Rhys asked.

"The mall is a play where you buy things such as clothing and furniture." Ava explained.

"Fascinating," Rhys said.

"Okay, ya'll decide while I change." Ava said before walking back into her chambers.

"Pierce,Noi and Me are going with the prisoner to go to the sacred mall." Asch decided.

"WHAT?! That's not fair!" Leif argued.

"That's on you for disobeying my orders!" Asch replied.

"Okay, we're off!" Ava said, walking out of her room.

Then they left.

"What now..?" I asked.

"We can set up the place, to feel a little more at home." Rhys suggested.

"Okay." I said.

We enter a section of Ava's walls and Rhys started building some structures with his magic.

Then he build some fountains of such.

"Y/n, would you mind?" Rhys asked, referring to the fountains.

"Oh, not at all." I replied.

I raised a palm and water started rising from the bottom of each fountain.

I sat on the edge of a fountain, staring at the clear water.

Soon after, Leif joined me.

I've been thinking.. What if.. me and Leif were.. together?
