Chapter 15

Cian's Pov. 

I sighed, closing my eyes as my ears got chewed out by Grace. I honestly couldn’t stand her.

-Then why do you hang out with her? Why not Leila?

My eyes snapped open.

Because Leila hates me now!  

-Just admit your feelings for her. It would clear things up very quickly. 

God, do you always come when I'm thinking? Couldn't you come when and if I needed help on a test? 

-Cause you secretly call to me. Promise me you'll admit your feelings for her tomorrow. 

Couldn't I wait a couple days, just to see if she- 

-TOMORROW!!! T-O-M-O-R-R-O-W!!!! Promise me. 

Fine, I promise. Now can you leave me alone? 

-Yes. If you don't tell her, I will take control of your body and tell her for you. Then proceed to make out with her. Maybe go farther.  

You are a sick, sick, conscious. That's vulgar. 

-That's only if you don't admit your feelings. She likes you. I promise. 

Why do I somehow feel like I should trust you? 

-Beats me. If I were you, I wouldn't trust me at all. Kidding. Alright, I said I would leave you alone so bye. 

Bye.

I looked up to see her. Leila, I mean. Her hair was in a loose bun, making strands of it fall around her face. The black dress she wore, barely covered her long legs. Her legs were then followed by stiletto boots. I glanced at her face. Her eyes were surrounded by black eyeliner and musky eye shadow. Mascara made her eyelashes look so long, they should have been illegal. 

She was obviously uncomfortable in those clothes but when our eyes met, her heart went into over drive. It was taunting me. Sadly, she looked away and made her way to Blade, who was tense, somehow sensing her?

“Blade,” she whispered when he turned around and grabbed her, striding to the school. I hissed slightly then shook my head. There is no way I can talk to her now. They disappeared into the school. I glared at the ground, deciding to ignore their conversation.

I simply turned and headed for my house again, hands curling into fists. I made it home and stomped into the empty corridor.

“That fuckin’ Blade! I want to kill him! No!” My voice turned cold. “I want to torture him to the brink of death, heal him, then do it over again. I will repeat this cycle until I feel satisfied and then I will kill him.”

I froze, rational side reminding me what it would do to Leila. I ran a hand through my hair, zooming up to my room. It would break her heart. I sighed, sitting on my bed. Then I went into a frenzy. I whipped around and tore my pillows and comforter. I flipped off the bed backwards, landing and kicking the side board, snapping it in half. I turned and punched a wall, making the house shake.

I kept destroying everything in my path until my anger subsided. I sat on the floor, breathing heavily, looking at the mess around me. Parts of my bed hung from the ceiling, my walls didn’t look like standing structures with how many holes were in them. My fan was dangling from a single wire, my clothes were ripping and torn. Glass was everywhere, my dresser was connected with my bed table.

What does she see in Blade, that isn’t in me? I growled, closing my eyes and slamming my head back into the wall.

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked around. It was 8:00 pm. How does time go by so fast? I got up and went downstairs. Chad was having a conversation with our parents on the phone. Luckily, he got them to stay in Europe a little longer since I was behaving. I opened the door and walked out. I stared up at the stars. Tomorrow will be very interesting.   

The next day  

I was pushed off the bed, being very abruptly awoken from my meditation. I fell to the floor and felt the wood crash into my spine, but I felt no pain. I jumped up and looked at my attacker. Lissa.  

"WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" I yelled at her. She shrugged. I glared at her. She leaned away and disappeared. I sighed and grabbed a towel.

A shower and a outfit later... 

 I grabbed my backpack and swung it over my shoulder. I walked down the stairs in confident. I creped out unnoticed and walked to my car. I opened the door and slouched inside. Today, I had decided to admit my feelings to Leila. Why do I suddenly feel sick? I turned on the engine and pulled away from my house. I thought of how I was going to tell her. Maybe in a note? No, no, no. Finally, I decided to tell her in person, at the beginning of the day to get it over with. I parked in a spot semi-close to the school and began my journey to the dreaded school that haunts me. I got there and spotted Leila next to Blade, yet again. My body yearned for her, and the pull she has on me was pulling me towards her. I felt my body take over my mind and my feet started walking towards her. When I got to be behind her, my hand tapped her shoulder. When she turned around, my mouth opened. 

"I need to speak to you...," I looked at Blade, who was glaring at me. "In private" I added quickly. Leila looked at Blade, as if asking for permission. He nodded, slowly, and I saw he was tense. She looked back at me and I offered my hand. She accepted it and I pulled her to the side of the school. She sighed. 

"What do you want?" She muttered. I didn't say anything at all; I just pulled her close and leaned down. I kissed her on the lips hard once then pulled away. I looked in her wide eyes. 

"W-what was that for? I thought you hated me," she asked me, her eyes never faltering from mine. I shook my head, slowly. 

"No, I don't. Not at all. I'm in love with you. I thought you hated me," I whispered. Leila blushed at the word love. 

"No! I'm in love with you too! I thought you hated me ‘cause you were ignoring me!" She said quickly. I pulled her closer and kissed her lightly on the lips. I pulled away and grinned. 

"Will you go out with me?" I felt foolish asking it. It felt like I was in second grade again. She thought for a little then opened her mouth to say something.  

"Are you really going to say yes, to the man who broke your heart?" Blade asked. He was really starting to annoy me. Leila whipped around to look at him. 

"Blade! W-what are you doing here?" She asked, glancing back at me. 

"I came to find you," Blade glared at me. "But I can see I'm interrupting.”

"You are," I growled. 

"Get you hands off of her," he said in a cold voice. 

"Make me!" I snapped. Blade glided over to Leila and me so fast I barely saw it coming. I ran from Leila in order to protect her and ran towards him. His hands were aiming for my neck. Then I pushed him away from me and I thought he would go flying but he just slid back a little, looking at me with flames of anger in his eyes. 

"What are you?" I growled. 

"Wouldn't you like to know?" He chuckled darkly. Finally, I heard a rustling noise and huge black wings sprouted from his back. Behind me, Leila gasped. He jumped up and flew towards Leila. He grabbed her and kissed her on the lips. I howled in anger and my fangs shot out. I ran over towards him with vampric speed and pushed him off her. I looked at Leila. She gasped again but I said one word. 

"Run.”
