I was walking from my last class thinking about last night

I was walking from my last class thinking about last night. I felt slightly betrayed but I knew it was no one's fault and all mine.

Last night, I went to the living room with Esmay and we all started eating pizza. Just then I realised that I haven't seen Edwin after introducing Sua to him. Ryker said that he'd gone home but I totally felt like there was some tension between Ryker and Blaze.

We had a fun night except for Edwin's disappearance and I came to know more about Sua. It was one of my best night.

The next morning, Sua was busy driving us to school when I saw Edwin coming out from a hotel with a girl clinging onto him. It was like someone was stabbing me with a knife. I tried to convince myself that I am misunderstanding something and there was nothing between them. But I knew the truth was completely opposite and they might have had nothing else but just.... Sex.

I was sure Esmay saw them too but she haven't mentioned anything, not even after three of my classes and I am grateful for that because I am still trying to convince me that the truth was a lie.

I was broken from my thoughts just when I bumped into something like a wall, umm.. that's a chest. I looked up to see Reagen grinning at me.

"You seem like you were deep in dreams" he said leaning down to take the book that he put down when bumped into me.

"Sorry, I was actually deep in dreams" I said with a smile.

He chuckled and looked down at his wrist watch.

"Shit, I am late. I will see you later" he said and ran down the aisle.
I let out a sigh and went near my locker and saw Esmay and Sua waiting for me anxiously.

"Hey" they both screamed when they saw me coming towards them.

"Guys, I am right here. So now stop shouting" I said as I opened my locker.

"I can sense something going on between you and Edwin" Sua said and
foraged my locker for some food. I shoved her hand away and she scowled at me, which I ignored.

"There's nothing going on except that he kissed me once and picked me up for school yesterday" I said and saw that both of them stood with their mouths hanging open.

I slightly pushed shut their opened mouth with a finger.

"You k-kissed him?" Esmay asked me and I frowned.

"Nope, he kissed me"

"And you say there's nothing going on. Girl I thought you liked Reagen" Sua said smacking my arm.

"I don't like Edwin, and he kissed me when he was not in his right mind" I complained.

I was scared of Edwin when I first saw him but now, he was a ok person to be with. I had something for him but it was all over when I saw him with a girl. It was not like he said he liked me or something. I convinced myself that I imagined things and he had no feelings for me. It was wrong of me and the fault was mine.

"Whatever, but you did kiss him back didnt you?" Sua asked smirking and a blush crept up my face.

"That explains everything" Esmay said in a aw tone and they both chuckled.

After an hour, I was waiting for my friends who were in a class, in a cafe near the university.

I was sucking up a empty coke bottle while scrolling through instagram and stared around the cafe. It was a cosy place liked by almost all the students from the university and this place gave me feelings of some of my happy memories.

My thoughts wavered to Aydan and I smiled thinking about him. I was a little sad as I haven't dreamt of him since my college started. It was a nice thing to have a imaginary boyfriend. He may never break your trusts and you would be completely happy with your life going in your way. But I didn't want to live in my head, I wanted a true life and maybe, that's why I stopped dreaming of him ever since I saw Edwin.

I looked around to see Edwin coming towards me and smiled at the thought that my head is going overboard by giving me imaginary sights of him. I looked away from imaginary Edwin and immediately laughed aloud when I wondered what would others think if they knew what I seeing.

"Are you crazy?" A voice boomed beside me and it clearly belonged to Edwin. I thought that I might have a photographic memory as I heard his flawless sexy voice.

"You look exactly like him but he really was a gentleman and you are a jackass" I sighed and mumbled in a low tone.

"Did you runaway from a madhouse?" He asked and though I wasn't looking at him, I knew he would be frowning.

I looked at him clearly and realised he wasn't my illusions but a real him, standing right infront of me.

I blinked a few times, reaching out my hand to touch his arm and it brought a wave of a week old memories.  Though he didn't shove my hand like last time.

"You are real?" I asked still confused while he sat in front of me.

"You must have ran away from a madhouse, no doubts" he said and I scoffed.

"Where did you leave last night?" I knew the answer but I was just curious how people would say that they had sex. He might be right. Did I run away from a madhouse in my last life?. Ugh whatever.

He leaned in a bit like he was going to tell me a secret, "none of your business" he said abruptly.

We were silent for some minutes before I mumbled something about him being mysterious. I didn't even know if he heard me until he looked up from his phone.

"I have so many questions for you, but I know I am not gonna get my answers"
I complained and he raised an eyebrow.

"Spill out your questions, I will answer to which I think, I can answer" he said dismissively.

"What?" I was totally taken back by his reply.

"You heard me"

"What are you?" My brain was not working as fast as it had been a minute ago.

"A human, or at least that's what I know" he answered but not before scowling at my dumb question.

"Are you into some kind of bad business?" I asked jokingly but he was glaring at me with a fire in his dark blue eyes.

I noticed that his eyes change into blue black colour when his bipolar side comes up.

"What would you do if I say that I am?" he asked and I looked at him wide eyed.

"I am ....not sure" I whispered.

"Then move on to next question" he said.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" I paused thinking if I should ask this, "I mean, a imaginary one. Do you dream of some kind of a girl you want to be with?" I asked bluntly, slightly embarrassed. I wanted to know why I had been dreaming of him and I could get a theory if he kinda dreams of me. I heard my conscience tell me that I am the stupidest person, he would have ever met.

"These are the dumbest questions I've ever heard" he paused and asked "are you done?"

"Nope but all my questions disappeared, when you told me to proceed with my questions" I said whiningly .

"Then it's my turn now"

"What?"

"My turn to ask you some questions. Know that nothing comes without a price" he said with a smirk playing over his face.

I glared at him, "Seriously?"
