~Devil in disguise~
'''Chapter 10'''

On the flight back to Royal High, Samantha clenched her fists tight on Romeo's hoodie, making creases on them. "Hey, you ok? You seem... Scared" Romeo said as she looked down to face Samantha who was trembling. "S-scared? Me? Never! I'm f-fine-" "You're not fine... Let me take a pit stop on the building there" Romeo interrupted Samantha as she dived down to a nearby building. Placing Samantha carefully onto the cold-hard rooftop, Romeo grabbed Samantha by her hip, pulling her closer to herself. "You were scared, weren't you? Don't lie to me now. I know you were. Clenching your fists and visibly trembling? Those are signs of fear or tension" Romeo said as she pushed some of Samantha's auburn hair back, behind her ear. "Smarty-pants... Fine... I'll admit... I was scared..." Samantha mumbled as she went closer to Romeo's chest. Being 15cm taller than her, Romeo felt Samantha bury her head into her neck, she suddenly felt overwhelmed... Overwhelmed by what seemed like... Love... Romeo had never felt love in a long time and this sudden affection threw her off. Pulling out of the small hug they had, Romeo looked away as she continued, "Anyways, why were you scared? Of falling or...?" "I had never been carried on a flight before... It was my first time..." Samantha murmured as she rubbed the outer part of her arms making herself warm. "That explains it. Don't be afraid... I would never drop you. Just grab onto me. Its gonna be alr-" "I know its gonna be alright cause I have you with me. The great Lucifer by my side..." Samantha interrupted Romeo as she walked towards her with a smirk playing upon her face. "Good joke... Now... Let's go, we still have work to do" Romeo said as she swept Samantha off of her feet and carried her like a child. "Strong..." Samantha whispered to herself as she flung her arms around Romeo's neck. For some reason, after the talk they had just had... Samantha felt safe around Romeo, even though she had to stop the Ghouls of the South the last time. For the first time in what seemed like eternity, Samantha felt warmth... Warmth of a person she loved dearly... Would Romeo let go of her denial and fall for Samantha as well?

"We're here. Samantha? Samantha...?" Romeo said as she peeked down to see Samantha sleeping peacefully. "Hm... The cool breeze must have made her sleepy..." Romeo thought as she kicked open their dorm door. Placing Samantha carefully onto the bed, Romeo gazed upon her face, eyeing all of Samantha's delicate details. "Wow.... She's gorgeous..." Romeo thought to herself as a smile crept up on her face. Leaning closer to Samantha's face, Romeo planted a small kiss on her forehead, waking a sleepy Samantha up. "W-where are we...?" Samantha asked in her sleepy voice. "Lucifer's sake.... I can't fall for her... I just can't..." Romeo mumbled to herself as she smiled weakly at Samantha. "We're at the dorm... You slept on the way here" Romeo told her as she shaked her head lightly and looked away. "O-oh... Did I drool?" "Very funny, Samantha" Romeo commented, sarcastically as she faked laughed. "Thank u, thank u. Its a specialty of mine!" Samantha said as she bowed multiple times. "I know what else your specialty is..." Romeo as she turned around to face Samantha, with a smirk playing on her mocha-tinted face. Walking closer towards the bed Samantha was on, Romeo pulled the blankets right off, exposing Samantha's body covered with clothes. "Stealing hoodies is your other specialty! Especially, stealing MY FAVORITE hoodie!" Romeo shouted as she pulled Samantha by her legs, bringing her into a sitting position. "W-what? This is m-mine... What are you talking about?!" Samantha hesitated as she looked away. "I really love this hoodie... It has her warmth in it... Please dont take it away... For Medusa's sake..." Samantha thought as she felt Romeo sit next to her on the bed. "My name is literally on her back of the hoodie. Its mine... But... Since you seem to enjoy wearing it..." "Please, can I keep it? It has your warmth in it which makes it special to me since I like- FUCK-" Samantha sweared as she looked away, embarrassed by what she had just said. "You like what?" Romeo questioned her, making Samantha more tensed than before. "I like....um.... Hoodies!" She lied, horribly as she started to walk away into the kitchen. "She's such a bad liar... Horrible.... Its obvious that she likes me now..." Romeo thought to herself making her laugh softly as she walked away to her computer to start her work.

"So... You still haven't told me if I could keep-" "Of course you can. You look happy wearing it." Romeo told Samantha as she typed away into her phone. "Yeeeeeee! Thank you!!!" Samantha squealed as she rushed towards Romeo to hug her. Instead, she fell forwards, right onto Romeo. "Lucifer's sake... Be careful" Romeo told Samantha as she grabbed her thighs and placed them around her hips, making her sit forward in front of Romeo. "I still have work to do" Samantha commented as she flung her arms around Romeo's neck, pulling her closer to herself. "You can complete them later-" "Then help me" Samantha interrupted Romeo as she placed her boney-cold finger onto Romeo's lips. "Fine..." Romeo reluctantly said as she pulled Samantha in by her waist. Hugging Romeo tightly and receiving warmth from her, Samantha buried her head deep inside of Romeo's hoodie which Romeo was wearing. "GUYS! WHATS GOING ON HERE?!" A voice, just then, shouted at the pair who were hugging....
