to tell you to be
careful,” he said seriously as he got up and kissed her hand.
“That’s all?” she said pleasantly as her eyes fluttered closed
beginning to welcome sleep.
“No, and for this,” he said as she started to
open her eyes and gave her this death defying kiss. “Night,
Amethyst,” he said as he left back through the window of her room
on the sixth floor with shy smile
Stupid, sexy, boy, she thought
breathlessly as she opened her eyes. Now I can’t sleep, she
smiled flipping her laptop back open even though technically school
was later today. It was then she remembered that he had told her to
be careful. But he hadn’t told her of what.
“Hey kiddo, suns up time for school,” her mom
yelled through the door.
“Ugh…I’m up” she mumbled back as she rolled
out of bed looking at the twenty or so posters on her white walls.
She pulled on a plain white shirt and black jeans and yanked her
hoody out the closet and pulled her hair into a ponytail. Pouring a
bowl of smores cereal and milk into a bowl and ate as her mom
questioning her on her week at sunny’s house. A week with my
best friend, her little brothers and her little sister. That’s not
a sleepover that’s a week long migraine, she thought while she
nodded at her mother while she ate.
“You’re going to be late its 7:30,” Her mom
said.
“Okay,” she said eating her last spoonful of
cereal. Her sneakers were by the door along with her book bag.
“Later mom,” she said with a yawn.
Ugh Romania felt way too much like summer
for me to be back in the city already, and school no less, she
thought. “Hey moonlight!” Amethyst heard a voice from down the
street; she had forgotten she was at the bus stop.
“Hey sunny, what up?” she asked noticing that
her brothers were nowhere to be seen.
“Where be the runts?” she said
informally.
“Oh, walking by alone for once. I haven’t
heard from you in a week!!! What happened!!!” she yelled. Shit,
what do I say? I found out I was half demon, got kidnapped by three
boys and might be getting us all killed? She thought.
“Sorry, I was uh hanging out with my new
boyfriend,” she said unintentionally.
“Your new what!? Since when? Who is he?” she
said in a blur that was way too fast for 7-ish on Monday
morning.
“My boyfriend, uh since like Wednesday,
Christophe,” she said back as she pulled out her metro card to hop
on the bus. They talked and laughed the whole bus ride to
school.
“So when can I meet him, since he goes here?”
Sunny asked.
“Uh,” Amethyst said as she shook out her
long-ish brown and blonde hair, “now” she answered. Christophe
walked up with that interstellar smile. Damn, I can never get
used to that, she thought.
“My Jewel and her…best friend I assume”
Christophe says calmly. Amethyst glanced over at sunny, who had the
cheesiest smile ever until,
“Oh my god,” Sunny said.
“Uh I think you got her kind of…star-struck,”
Amethyst giggled.
“Oh, deepest apologies uh, sorry I don’t know
your name. However I’m Christophe,” he said in his far too adorable
Romanian accent.
“Oh you can call me sunny, nice to meet you,”
she said.
“You as well, catch you later Jewel,” he said
as he softly kissed her cheek and ran off to get his schedule.
“Where did you get him!?!” Sunny yelled once
Christophe was out of earshot.
“He’s Alias’s older brother,” Amethyst
replied with a smile as they walked inside
Third period algebra, she and Alias were
passing notes back and forth that were mainly about nothing…or they
started out that way anyhow.
Hey, did my brother tell
you yet?
Stop being cryptic Alias, did Christophe tell
me what?
You know if Christophe
cared about you he would have told you before now.
Told me what Alias?
That the dudes that through
the rock through the window is coming for you
…I knew that much…they saw me
And that what the little
girl said was similar to “you’re the new one, the
careful,” he said seriously as he got up and kissed her hand.
“That’s all?” she said pleasantly as her eyes fluttered closed
beginning to welcome sleep.
“No, and for this,” he said as she started to
open her eyes and gave her this death defying kiss. “Night,
