Ronan and I got seated at a table. " What do you want to eat, Sabrina?"
He asked. I'm not even in a mood for food.
" Whatever you order. I'm not angry."
" Are you angry at me, Sabrina? I shouldn't have chosen to go to the library. I have hurt you, right? You got all the reasons to be angry at me. I'm so sorry. I was a fool." Ronan apologized.
" What? It's not that. You don't need to take it seriously. I will never be angry at you." There's a smile on his face as I spoke.
" Now, can I order a plate of pasta for you? You aren't admitting. But you are hungry. Pasta's your all-time favourite too." Ronan said and called the waiter. Time passes by, as we both talked a lot even after finishing our dinner.
" Who's that Daemon boy? Are you friend with him?" Ronan asked as we are walking out of the cafe.
" Yeah. He's new here just like his."
" I don't like him. He seems suspicious to my eyes. He's a creepy guy. I saw him looking at you for a whole period. I also saw him drawing someone. I suspect it might be you. You better stay away from him." Ronan seriously said. Of course, Daemon must look suspicious to others eyes. He's a devil. But I haven't noticed that he was drawing someone. There's a 99 per cent chance, it would be me? But why?
" Are you sure he was looking at me or drawing someone?"
" Yeah. I noticed him in Business studies class. That's the only class he shares with us."
" Oh," I went silent. I shouldn't continue talking about Daemon with him.
" Anyways, you haven't told me about your new roommate. Are you bonding with your new friend?"
" I don't think so. He's an Athlete. He spends most of the time outside his room. His room is just for sleeping. He's not taking steps to know me."
" That's okay. You got me, Hayley and Alice. We don't need to make new friends."
" I agree with you. I got you. You know what? Whenever you are bored, you can come to my room. We can either study or spend some time together."
" I will." I gave him a warm smile. The next second, something got my attention. I kept some notes from today's class in my bag. Few of the paper flew away in the wind.
" Oh no, don't go," I shrieked and ran after it. " Sabrina?" Ronan called me loudly. I didn't reply until I caught two sheets as the others lay on the other side of the road. Before I could take another, I heard a car horn and lights. My legs aren't giving quick reflexes to move.
Two hands quickly dragged on out of the way. " Are you alright, Sabrina? Did you just seriously ran for some papers?" Ronan scolded me.
" I didn't saw the car. It isn't even a busy street."
" So what? The idiot was driving crazy. I would have lost you." Ronan yelled at me. I'm going to die anyway. But I didn't expect it soon.
" I'm sorry," I said as Ronan hugged me tightly. I hard to believe that I'm seeing a lot of fear in Ronan's eyes in just a minute.
" Umm...I wouldn't have died because of the car. You don't have to worry." I said, taking a step back from him.
" We don't know that. Anything can happen in a minute. I will escort you to your room safely from now on."
" You are not my bodyguard, Ronan," I laughed.
" I can be your bodyguard. I will protect you. You mean a lot to me. Don't you know that?" He said, caressing my cheek. I should be liking this 'Ronan'. The new ones who I wished to have. But something made me feel guilty. I made the wrong decision. He's not himself.
" Yeah," Ronan's eyes lowered to my lips. He leaned closer. I have a chance to stop before he kisses me. But this is what I have wanted for a long time. There's no point in stopping it when I was the one who made a wish.
I slowly closed my eyes. I felt Ronan's lips on mine. His kiss was sweet, just like I imagined. I enjoyed the moment and kept the other thoughts aside.
" Can we go back now? It's getting darker." I said, clutching his shirt.
" Sure," Ronan and I walked back to our dorms. I should be happy by now. For the Kiss. For Ronan.
" Hey, what are you both talking about?" I asked Hayley and Alice, closing the door behind me.
" Join us, Sabrina. We are playing a new game." Alice called me.
.....
The night went away. It's time for classes again. After four periods, we entered the canteen for lunch.
" It feels so good to be with you guys," Alice said, looking at us.
" The feelings mutual," Ronan said, without taking his eyes off me. I took one bite of the sandwich while listening to my friends.
" Would you mind if I join you?" I heard a familiar voice. It's both mesmerizing and horrifying.
" Daemon," I spoke with the sandwich in my mouth.
" Yes, that's my name," He said, sitting next to me with his plate.
" It's the new guy in room number 113. I remember you." Alice said. I looked at Ronan, who's glaring at Daemon. Daemon included himself in the rest of the time we are eating.
" What are you doing here? Can't you sit alone?" I whispered to him when no one is paying attention to us.
" I can't isolate myself just because I'm a devil. I prefer to know more about humans and human foods. It's all new to me." He said, savouring his sandwich and the French fries.
Hayley asked Daemon " I saw you in Arts class. I share the same class with you. Do you know that?"
" Yeah, I saw you too. You looked great in that blue dress."
" That was my favourite one. Atleast you noticed it. My friends don't appreciate my dressing style."
" I notice you, Hayley. But I…" Before I finish speaking, Daemon interrupted me.
" By the way, I already took classes in graphic designing. If you need any help, you can ask me. I'm just a door away from you."
" I would defiantly need your help. Why don't you give your number?" Hayley eagerly asked him.
" He's one door away. Why do you need his number?" I interrupted again. I don't like Daemon talking with my friends. He looks like one of us but he's a devil. He's toxic.
" Take down my number," Daemon ignored me and said his number. Then, we all went to keep our plates back. As soon as I washed my hands, I went back to Daemon.
" You got to stop talking with my friends. They don't know anything about you."
" Why would I do that? I'm here because of you. I have to make friends, do something to keep me engaged."
" For god's sake, you are a devil. Get away from others. Why are you even mingling with us?"
" Your words hurt, Brina."
" You are the one who must be hurting everyone in hell. My words are nothing compared to what you do,"
" That's not my job. I take souls from those who are summoning me. In return, I bring their seven wishes to life. Just like I granted your first wish." He said, looking behind me. Ronan is waiting for me.
" He's not my boyfriend yet."
" But he kissed you. He will soon be yours." Daemon said as he drank a bottle of sprite.
" How do you know he kissed me? Are you spying on me?"
" This thing tastes good. There's always a lot in this world to explore." He changed the topic.
" Answer me, Daemon,"
" What do you want to know? I know everything. Everything about you. I'm always watching you. I'm gonna wait until you make a second wish. See you later,"
I'm in love with the devil. How did I let it happen?
I'm Sabrina Steward. My life is nothing special. I have feelings for a boy who doesn't even notice it. My parents worked hard to get a seat in Hellviore Acadamy for me. I was managing my life well until a small wish box found its way through my life. It transformed my life. The wish box is capable of summoning the devil and granting seven wishes. After seven wishes, I will be dead.
I should have been careful. Now, my life is in danger. Death is approaching me. And my heart is longing for the devil's love who's incapable of any emotions.
