Faith, Trust, and Pixie Dust; Sequel to Love is Weakness (Carlos De Vil) series

Out of My League

Jay had left the dorm, leaving Carlos behind playing a game on his laptop. Suddenly, a curly-haired blonde boy with a pointed face, came lurking into the room. Carlos watched him incredulously, wondering when the intruder was going to realize that he wasn't  exactly stealthy, and he was not alone.

"Chad!" Carlos called out, startling the intruder. "Why are you in my room, Chad?" He continued, annoyed and raising his voice.

"I just came to use your 3-D printer. I'll only be a second, you don't mind, do you? You installed all these hacks and your printer is so much faster than mine..." Rambled the entitled and obtuse Prince.

"Out, Chad!" Demanded Carlos.

"Oh, what's this?" Asked Chad, condescendingly. He picked up a silver trinket that was left next to the printer. "A bird? Oh...did you make this? A present for someone?"

"It's a raven, and you know what? It's none of your business, because for the third time, this is not your room." Asserted Carlos, beginning to lose his patience completely. "And, for the record, nothing of mine is your concern!" He added, hoping that Chad would get the subtext.

"I found her first." Shrugged Chad, in his own creepy way.

Yup, he got it.

"What difference does that make?" Demanded Carlos, tiring of Chad's smug-- stupid face. "She didn't fall for your fake Prince Charming crap!"

"Then why, pray tell-- did she let me kiss her?" Challenged Chad.

"You're lying..." Scoffed Carlos, blowing him off.

"Why don't you ask your little Pixie, then? Afraid that she'll float away to someone better?" Chad continued to taunt.

"Oh, Hades! Get the hell out of my room!" Shouted Carlos, as he finally lost it and threw his body into Chad's with all his strength. He knocked him out of the dorm room, slamming the door behind him.

Carlos walked abruptly and fast to the girl's dorm floor. His head boiling in anger. Carlos had to stop and breathe for a moment before barreling into Raven's dorm.

"When?" Demanded Carlos.

"Okay? I give up. When what?" Asked Raven completely confused, and thinking that Carlos was playing a joke.

"When did you let..." Carlos started to ask, but felt like vomiting.

"Hey, hey. What happened? Tell me, Carlos." Pressed Raven, trying to get him to calm down and make some sense.

"Chad said that you let him kiss you." Explained Carlos, finally spitting out the words.

"Oh, Hades." Sighed Raven, shutting her eyes in exasperation.

"Yeah! Yeah! That's what I said, right before I shoved his ass through the door!" Shouted Carlos, angrier than she had ever seen him, "You said you'd been "fighting off his advances" since you got here. Was that even true?"

"Carlos! You have to understand..." Started Raven.

"So, it happened?" Carlos demanded, in disgust.

"Carlos..." Raven pleaded.

"Tell me, Raven!" Carlos ordered.

"Yes, it's true! I let him kiss me, okay?" Shouted Raven.

"When...and, why him?" Grimaced Carlos.

He was calming down, but looked more sad than angry now, which in Raven's mind was worse.

Raven started to pace around the room, as she attempted to explain,
