(Andrew's pov is part of a flashback to the second episode)

Andrew

“Mhmm, we’ll see...” I can already see the wheels turning in her head, this is not going to be fun.

After she says this the waiter comes over, “Are you both ready to order?”

“Hm? Ah. Yes, I would like the Chicken Alfredo.” As she is speaking her hair glistens as well as her earrings, we are at a fancy restaurant because we like going out as a “couple” so we are both dressed up, she is wearing a dark red floor length dress that slowly fades into more and more glitter at the bottom, it is long sleeve and has a deep V-neck and cups her waist perfectly, it also perfectly moves with her every movement as it flows at the bottom. Her dress matches my tie because I had decided to wear my school’s uniform but with a blazer on top.

“Okay, and for you sir?” When the waiter says this I break out of my thoughts and say the same thing I always do.

“I will have the same as her.” I hand mine and Maria’s menus back and thank her as she turns around.

As soon as the waiter is out of sight Maria pulls out a yearbook from gods knows wear and starts going through all of the men with light brown hair and this goes on for a long time until she finally points to him. It says, Matthew Arrowood.

When she recognizes the name her eyes go wide.“As in Kratos and Lilith Arrowood? Yeah That’s scary, no wonder he has intimidating friends.”

“Yeah and he’s friends with him, maybe I should just move onto someone else?”

“NO! You are going to ask him out on the next free day.” She says this with determination in her voice but also fear.

“Okay, fine.”

Matthew

“Matthew,,, will you go out with me?”

I turned around and saw who it was and I was actually pretty surprised, I mean he is pretty cute. He has dark blonde hair and green eyes, he is wearing a green sweater that matches his eyes and some dark wash jeans, there is also a girl next to him and I might be gay but I can definitely appreciate her beauty, she has light pink hair that is curled and half up into a bun on her head and she is wearing a black, asymmetrical skirt that almost reaches her knee on one side and on the other side it barely covers her butt and the waistband goes up past her belly button. Around her waist is a loosely tied button up that is red based with black and blue plaid patterns on it. She has on a white crop top that shows about two inches of skin from the top of her skirt to the bottom of the shirt and has a black leather jacket that goes down to about the top of the skirt, and to top it off she is wearing a gold long necklace that ends at the top of the skirt, and some platform heeled black boots that just about reach her shins. She has on some dark maroon lipstick with eyeliner but that seems to be it. Her face is perfect and so is her body, she probably attracts all of the guys.

I then feel an elbow into my side that rips me from my mind. “Dude, he asked you something” I don’t exactly know who said that but I’m pretty sure it was Ryan because he is smirking with a small laugh.

I finally cleared my throat and spoke, “Um, uh, what did you want again?” I say this while looking as intimidating as possible which obviously worked because they both shivered and the guy stepped back and grabbed onto the girls arm. And then the rest of the group laughed because they all know what had happened.

Michael then spoke up obviously glaring and with the clothes and hair he probably looks completely terrifying “What are you two here for?” He chuckles evilly and smirks which scares them again because they step back once more.

Leon stands up and says with an evil smile, “Ha, come on guys we’re scaring them, I wonder how long it will take until they run away like little girls” Noah then grabs him and sets him on his lap because they both swallow and look like they are going to throw up, they might not have known how terrifying he is because of his face, but with that smile they do now. They don’t back away although it looks as though the guy would have if it weren’t for the girl holding onto him to keep him in place.

“Well now that we know you guys are serious, please introduce yourselves.” Ryan says probably looking terrifying as well as they shiver at the sound of his voice.

The girl then clears her throat, “Well um, *she clears her throat again,* Well, my name is Maria Alarie and his name is Andrew Ekker” when she says his name she points to him and you can see her hand is shaking.

“Well now I’ll introduce all of us” Michael says this with a huge evil smirk and by now his eyes have narrowed so he looks even more intimidating, and now he is sitting with his legs spread and his arms resting on them with his back hunched over, with this pose you can see even more of his chest and his abs are easily visible which I can’t say looks terrible on him. “I’m Axel Cutler” He then nods over in Ryan’s direction, “And that’s Ryan Frost” with the mention of his name Ryan nods at Andrew, next Michael stands up and walks over to Leon and Noah which seems to scare Maria and Andrew because they flinch. “These two are Leon Mannix and Noah Hartman” when Michael says Leon’s name he smirks wildly and glares at them which terrifies them even more, after that he moves over to me and puts his hand on my shoulder and then glares at Andrew which makes him back away again and jump slightly. “And finally this is Matthew Arrowood, but I assume you knew that already?”

I then cross my arms and stand up and ask, “Now, what was so important that you came all the way over here and had you stay through all of that torment?” I smirk at that and everyone must be glaring and smiling evilly at them because they still look terrified and Andrew could barely get his words out.

“I- I umm- I came to- uhh”

He is then interrupted by Leon saying, "To- To- Today Junior" all five of us laugh at that and they just look terrified so then Maria interrupts our fun.

“Just shut the fuck up, he came over here already terrified and you guys are not helping just chill y’all’s faces and let him fucking speak, gods you guys are assholes.” Hey a least there is some nerve here. At that Michael stands and walks over to her and since he is much taller he grabs her chin and points it up at him so she is looking at him, if it were anyone else they might have looked like a cute couple considering their styles, although I'm the one who dressed him today. And since he is way too terrifying for her to even attempt to fight against it she just stands there obeying him.

“Well if we didn’t do this, how would we know if he is serious with our sweet baby boy?” And with that he smirks wildly and lets her go. “Now, if the lady could shut her trap for a second, we might be able to figure out exactly why he is here. Could you do that for us Ms?” Maybe because of his smirk or face or maybe it is just his whole being she just nods and backs up. “Thank you now, second girl, explain.” We all chuckle at the comment and Andrew turns bright red.

“Well, *he swallows* I was coming over here to ask-- to umm, to ask you out” With that we all stand up and fist bumps and high five each other in congratulations.

“Well look at that, he finally said it, we are proud of you” Ryan says this with a smirk and a wink. I think about it for a second and I assume everyone thinks that I’m going to say no but now that I’m thinking about it, I don’t really have anyone right now and since he went through all of this just to ask, although I believe the only reason he stayed is because the girl, at least she has some nerve on her, but he still stayed. I have decided.

I interrupt the chit chat with only one word and it seems to make time stop, “Sure” after saying it I sit down and cross my arms and add a small smirk as the cherry on top. All of the expressions were beautiful. Michael looked surprised with a hint of anger. Andrew and Maria both looked shocked and excited. Ryan and Noah both just had shock written all over their faces. And then again was Leon with that same look of terror.
