"Mom, I don't feel good. Can I stay home today?" Mom tested my temperature and indeed- I had 39 degrees . (A/N: in Celsius)
"Yeah. I'll inform the school. Rest today, honey." Mom kissed my forehead before getting a glass of water and a few pills. "-You know the drill right? Three times a day, drink a lot of water and rest." I nodded.
"Thanks, mom."
"Anything for you, babe." She kissed my forehead before heading off to work. "-I prepared some breakfast for you! Warm it up!" Her voice echoed through the house before the front door closed softly.
I sighed. I could feel my heart beat in my ears loudly.
I never thought that it would actually work. Drinking tea.
If she would have found out, I would have been twenty feet under. Thank god.
I throw the blanket away from my body before standing on my two tired feet and fixing the bed. I yawn and stretch before falling back down onto the bed.
I am not sure if Bella showed up today. I didn't hear a work from her for a couple day now and I am really worried. I thought maybe she was avoiding me but then.. How did she know if I went to school or not?
"I should get myself ready." Today, I planned to relax. Though, I could have told my mom the truth- that Bella and I weren't on good terms right now and I don't feel like going- but I am pretty sure that she would have said; "Deal with it and go."
Sorry mom but I had to lie to you.
After confirming that the house is indeed empty- I blasted on the new recent songs by Taylor Swift and began my morning routine.
Today- I am going shopping. Alone. Me, myself and I.
- - - - -
Arriving to the mall, finding the perfect parking spot and letting out a cheerful giggle. Today is going to be so exciting!
I get to spend my money after saving for centuries and I have quite the amount on my bank account! Though, let's try to not buy stuff that are useless just because they have a discount. Yes, I am one of those people.
Getting out of the car, I pull out my car keys and lock the beautiful machine.
A beautiful gray BMW.
My mom got it for me for my 16th birthday. Long before I had licence. I got my licence thanks to this car actually. I really wanted to drive it, so I did what had to be done.
Even though I got my licence about a year ago. It's only my fourth time driving this beauty.
The roof automatically clicked back to its place and I smiled. Perfect.
I made my way to the entrance of the mall, passing the bodyguard after he nodded in approval.
The smell of food, and leather enveloped my nostrils. It's the smell that just drives you to buy everything they offer.
I start making my way through every store possible and of course- affordable. Shops like Zara, H&M and more- had me hooked.
The time flew by so quickly that I didn't notice how starved I was. Already holding a few bags in my hands and arms, I search for my favorite store that is usually on the second floor of the building.
Going up the elevator with the heavy bags was a very smart choice.
A moment later, I find myself standing at the entrance to my favorite restaurant. Though it's expensive here and usually my mom pays the bills- I'll allow myself to use my use my own savings this time around.
"Would you like to have a seat?" A waitress came running with a fake smile. After a few moments of silence I nodded- debating whether I should or shouldn't. I finally made up my mind.
"Yes, I'd love to."
"This way please." I followed the young girl who is close to the same age as mine- to the table in the far corner before she handed me the menu and introduced herself as Mindy.
I ordered some light opening plates and a cold drink before letting her know about the main-course dishes that I wanted.
The food that I ordered had arrived safely. The amazing aroma of the Salmon and the dish next to it- sea food mixer- gave me an orgasm. I ordered another cold drink and enjoyed my time devouring my favorite dishes.
Until...
Two familiar faces dare take sit at my table. The man that is usually teasing me and taunting me isn't present.
They both chuckled at my expression.
"We meet again, little lamb." The one that sat next to me whispered in my ear- using the same nickname that man gave me.
"Excuse us for interrupting your meal." The other one that sat in front of me said with a smirk on his lips.
How did they know where I was?
"How did you find me?" I drop the fork and knife gently on the plate. I still had a tight hold on the knife.
"Now now. Let's not kill the joyful mood."My joyful mood was gone the moment I saw your faces!
The one next to me leaned on his hand as he rested his elbow on the table. The second brother leaned his chin on both of his hands-elbows on the table as well.
Definitely brothers.
"We were instructed by our older brother to leave you be but we were so curious." The same hand that was still holding my knife began to shake visibly- as if holding back the means to attack. The brothers didn't hide their fascination of the situation at all as they can clearly see my trembling hand.
"And now we can see why he suggested to stay away from you." They backed off slightly, wary of me.
"What do you want?" I gritted my teeth, anger began to rise and they know that I am holding back. But holding back what?
"Anyway-" The one next to me ignored my question and continued on. "-I think it's about to introduce each other.
"I am Orpheus." He took my hand in his and kissed the top of my hand gently. Cold.
Then the one in front of me also took my hand, forcing me to drop the knife, and kissed it before introducing himself
Then the one in front of me also took my hand, forcing me to drop the knife, and kissed it before introducing himself.
"And I am Samael." He smirked.
Before I could stop myself I voiced my thoughts.
"The hell with these names?" Biblical names. The hell? Who names their children by the bible?
The smiles on their faces fades but they still didn't let go of my hands. I should be scared at this point but weirdly- I wasn't. I had the feeling that I could take them on and survive.
A few moments of silence later, deep laughter irrupted from their throats. The entire restaurant stopped its activity as everyone stared at our table.
A blush rose to my cheeks.
"Shut up. What's so funny?" I mumbled under my breath but they seem to hear it clear as day.
"That's it, Jordan. We decided." I gulped. "-We like you." The both of them stood up, letting go of my hands gently. Both of them kissed my cheeks on either side and a sweet smile rose on the beautiful lips.
"We'll let you have you fun now. Goodbye." Samael turned around and walked out of the restaurant but Orpheus stayed behind.
"Our older brother's name." He said. "-It's Abigor. You best remember it."He then turned around as well, and walked away. Everyone still stared at my table in shock- I wasn't that different.
What the..
Before I could stop myself a chuckle escaped my lips and my joyful mood returns as quickly as it disappeared.
They are impossible. And they are definitely brothers.
