Eve's pov

    Danzel is one of the few guys I have met whose faces looked like they belonged in a museum for the upcoming generation to see human beauty. (Is there a museum-like that exists?)

     His hair was messy and falling over his forehead like beautiful dark waves. His nose was straight and pointy but they were a little crooked in the middle, maybe because of some fight. His lips were full and pinker than the color pink itself that looked red. 

      'Cause he was making out you fool' my subconscious snarled at me. 

     His jawline was sharp and straight and oh his eyes. His eyes were green. Like the forest green. I have never seen such a deep-set of green eyes ever in my life. He looks like an angel. A beautiful angel.

     "Cause you were eating her face in a place where people eat food while I was introducing Eve." Emilia's loud voice broke me out of my daze.

      'Wow. You just checked that guy out and poetically described him in just five seconds.' again. Shut up subconscious.

     "Cause maybe I find eating her face more than meeting a sloppy girl." He glared at me directly.

     God, I was so wrong about this guy. He is the devil. A devil in a beautiful face. Yes!

     "Wait. What do you mean by a sloppy girl?" I asked glaring at him with full force. I can't let a mere guy who thinks highly of himself belittle me.

      "Oh, nothing. Just that person who creates havoc wherever she goes." He shot back. And I pale. His words hit me hard. Tears stung at the back of my eyes. But I kept it together. I'm never gonna show my weakness in front of a guy like him.

      The monster of my past peeked one eye open but I shut it off. I vowed to myself that I won't let anyone walk all over me. Ever again.

     "Yeah. It's okay to create havoc." I shrugged it off, not showing how affected I was. "Actually it's better than being a manwhore who changes  girls like someone changes their socks." I fired back, leveling a glare at him.

      I officially announce to no one in particular that 'I hate this guy.'

       I hate him.

"Whatever. At least they are good enough for me to use for my pleasure." He smirked. "Unlike you whom I won't even look at even to pass my time." It made me angrier. I was about to reply when Emilia cut me off.

     "That's enough. Danzel you need to apologize. Now." Emilia glared at him.

     "Like hell, I will." He snapped at her.

  "I don't need his apology," I said. "It doesn't matter." I met his eyes. 

     I swear I saw something pass in his eyes. An emotion I guess but it was not there when I looked longer. 

     "Whatever." He said and put the girl on her feet standing up. Now that I was looking at the girl I saw her glaring at me. Ohhh. She was upset because I interrupted them.

     Whatever. I didn't, Emilia did. 

"Baby let's go somewhere else." The girl purred in his ear. And for the life of me, I couldn't look away. she touched his cheeks with her pointy nails appearing sexy and it made me nauseous for some reason.

     So I looked away and sat down while picking on my food. It's not even five minutes since I met this guy and he is affecting me in ways I can't decipher.

      "Get away from me." I heard the devil's voice but I didn't lookup.

     "What?" The girl's voice was of disbelief.

     "Didn't you hear? I said, “Get away from me." He repeated himself and I shook my head. He is just like another teenage guy. And here I was getting affected by him.

      But why can't I seem to hate him even when he said the most dreaded thing of my life.

      "Hey." I heard someone saying and looked up to find Leon smiling at me, so I smiled back.

      "You should eat your food fast. Because the next class is in fifteen minutes." One thing I learned about Leon is that his smile is contagious, it would make you smile no matter how disturbed you are.

     I nodded my head and smiled, before picking my fork and eating. 

     "Hey, how about we all meet after school?" James asked me.

    "Hmmm…I cant. I am working after school." I denied them because of my tight schedule.

     "Where do you work?" Leon asked.

  "Oh, I work at Margaret's," I replied looking at him. We completely ignored the fact that Danzel and the girl were having a heated conversation.

     By heated I mean Danzel was glaring at the girl and the girl was squirming. But when I looked up Danzel was glaring at me then at Leon. Yeah, whatever dude.

     "Ohh then we are definitely hanging out," Ashton said. I frowned at him.

     "Don't worry, he meant that it's our usual spot to hang out. So we can meet there after your shift." Emilia explained.

    "When is your shift ending?" Leon asked.

    "I work till six," I answered.

  "Then it's fixed we all will meet you at the cafe at six then," James declared. I nodded.

    "Fine by me as well, I'm gonna work on my homework till then," Sara said.

    "I will help you, baby," Aston mumbled near her ear.

    "No need, you only distract me. So stay away from me till six." Sara scolded him.

      We laughed at Ashton's pouty face. They were a cute couple. And I could tell that they loved each other even if they were mere teenagers. Unlike someone.

      My mind involuntarily found its way to him and he was still glaring at me, the girl was nowhere to be seen. But there was something else I saw in his eyes which I can't pinpoint.

     I frowned and looked away and my eyes met Leon's. He was smiling at me, I must say he has one of the most beautiful smiles I have ever seen.  I smiled back and finished my food.

     We all dumped our plates and parted ways for class. Emilia and I went to our math class and the others went for their respective classes or whatever they wanted to do.

        ………………………………………………

   “Would you like to place an order now mam?” I asked the customer that was waiting at sitting at a table at my side.

     “ Yes, I would like to have matcha tea.” the lady said. I smiled and wrote down.

“Coming right away.” I slipped the note to Rina who took it and went back inside the kitchen. Rina and I became, as you can call, good work friends. We work in a rhythm that works for us. I have been working here for a few days and I love it here.

      I noticed a customer waving at me, I quickly nodded and went to them. The time passed real quick and it was time for the end of my shift. I was putting my apron in my locker and I heard someone opening the door.

      “I didn't know you  were friends with the popular gang.” It was rina. I know what she is talking about.

      “I just met them today and they wanted to hang out.'' I rolled my eyes.

“Just be careful, and they are outside at their table. They asked for you,” she whispered. What she said made me frown.

    “Their table?” I asked.

“They have a table here which is theirs as they always sit at the same table. So we call it theirs,” she explained.

     “Are you saying that they are bullies?” I asked her. Cause it seems like they rule here as well.

 “No they are not bullies, but they are powerful people or kids. So be careful,” she said thoughtfully.

   “Okay.” I nodded at her.

 “Okay then I'll see you tomorrow,” she said and went back inside.

     I shrugged off my doubts and went inside as well with my bag and phone in my hands. I was nearing the table when I saw the gang. All of them were here and Danzel as well. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. ‘You create havoc wherever you go’ his words came rushing back to me. And I felt my heart clench. I  don't know why but I am affected by him. His ignorance hurts me. And I feel weak. But I promised that I won't let anyone make me feel weak. Not even Danzel.

           I opened my eyes and took a deep breath and marched towards the table. As usual, Danzel was with a girl on his lap, but this time they weren’t kissing. He was just holding her by the waist with his face on her neck. I clenched my fists at the pain in my heart and looked away.

     ‘Hey, guys.” I greeted them as I slipped into a seat next to Sara.

  “Look who's here?” James said. I smiled at him amused. Out of all of them, he was the one who can match Emilia's energy. They were kind of the same. 

“ How was work?” Leon asked. I noticed that he was one of the most caring people I have ever met.

“Hectic,'' I said dramatically and he chuckled.

“I ordered you a coffee. Hope you don't mind.” Emilia said.

“Oh trust me I wouldn't” I replied with a sigh as I made myself more comfortable in the chair

“So what did you people do after school?” I asked, looking around but completely ignoring the Devil. But I could feel his eyes glaring at me. But I didn't look at him.

      “I took a nap,'' Emilia said. That's why she was looking fresher than everyone else.

“We went to get some car parts from a shop out of town,” Ashton said.

“We?” I asked.

“Yeah, me, James, and Dan.” I nodded at him.

“Are you working on  something?” Leon asked and I saw he was looking at Danzel. He looked at me giving me a hard stare then looked at Leon.

“Yesh.” His voice was husky which made me shiver. I frowned at my reaction and wrapped my arms around myself. “I retrieved an old beauty from a garage, I thought I would rebuild it,” he explained further.

     “What car is it?” I asked my interest in equipping at the thought of a classic car. But he completely ignored me and went back to the girl's neck. And I only noticed that no one was giving importance to the girl.

     “It's a Porsche nine one one,” James said when I didn't get a reply.

“No. Who would leave that masterpiece in a garage?” I asked.

“Right, tell me about it,” Ashton said, sipping his drink.

“Are you into cars?” Leon asked.

  “Mostly classic beauties.” I nodded happily.

“Is that green Miura 1996 edition that is parked outside yours?” James asked.

“Yeah, it's my grandpa’s. I got it shipped, even before I came here.” I said. My grandparents left me a lot of things and my car was one of them. I love it like my own baby.

      “awesome, dude. Can I ride it someday?” James asked.

“Sure, if you want to.” I agreed. I always loved sharing my things. Always wanted a sibling to share my things with, but never got one.

         “God stop with all those manly talks.” Sara groaned beside me.

“Exactly right. It's not what we want to talk about.” Emilia said.

   “What do you want to talk about Kim Kardashian?” Ashton asked. I Laughed at the disgust in the other boy’s face.

      “Okay how about we talk about something neutral,” I suggested. Cause I don't want to talk about a celebrity. And by the look on the other two girls' faces, I knew they wanted to.

“Like what?” Leon asked.

“Like how about a trip to the mountain this Sunday?” James suggested.

“Noooooo.” Sara and Emilia shouted together.

“Then what?” Ashton asked again.

“How about we go to the theaters?” James suggested. And by that, I got another idea.

“Hey, I want to invite you all to my house this Sunday,” I said looking at them.

“We can do a movie marathon and there’s a barbecue in my backyard as well. We can make use of it as well.”?I suggested.

     “I'm in.” Emilia said excitedly. “ we all are in actually.”  she said on behalf of others when I looked at them they were nodding excitedly. When I looked at Danzel to see if he was coming or not I saw him making out with the girl. I quickly looked away gritting my teeth. 

    “Don't worry he will come as well.” I looked to see Sara whispering to me. Nodded at her and went back to my coffee as different kinds of conversation flew on our table. I partially listened and joined. But my mind was constantly going back to the image of Danzel kissing the girl I saw now and the girl I saw at the school cafeteria.

    God, I am in trouble and it's not even twenty-four hours.

………………………………………………..

  " Fuck. No.no.no." I mumbled. "Please don't." I shrieked as I saw him taking out a stick. But the man just smirked at me. 

    " I told you not to feed that filthy animal right." He grounded, glaring at me."But you did it anyway." He took a better hold of the stick.

    "You create havoc wherever you go." He said. I was afraid to speak. Because I know me talking back makes him angrier and he will beat me more if I open my mouth.

     "You just can't do what you are told." He went on. But I was eyeing that stick as he raised his hand to beat me. " and you'll be punished for that." With that, he charged the whip forward. And I shrieked.

       "Noooooooo," I shouted and woke up from my deep slumber. It was just a nightmare.

      I patted my heart and looked around. I was safe. I'm in a different country. They can't reach me.

       I wiped my face which was soaked from tears and sweat from the effect of the dream. And got off from the couch where I dozed off after work.

      The house was suffocating and I needed fresh air. So I quickly made myself a coffee and opened the back door.

        It was already nine and the night sky was at its best. I sat down on the porch and looked around. No matter how I try to distract myself, it doesn't work.

    'Just that person who creates havoc wherever she goes.' Danzel's words rang inside my mind and the flashes of my past came back. 

      After running from America I came across many people who tried to belittle me but I never let them affect me. However, no matter how much I try I get affected by Danzel.

       Everything about him affected me. And it was strange because we just met today. But it felt like I knew him. But the truth is I do not. I'm just getting affected by his good looks.

       That's right. 

   But no matter how much I try to convince myself I know it's not true. It's more than his looks. I get affected by him. By everything about him. 

      His eyes almost always keep glaring at me. His voice was like a caress to my heart. His ignorance makes me miserable. His attitude towards me. Everything. 

     I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. I didn't even realize I had tears in my eyes until they fell because I closed my eyes. I quickly wiped them and sat up as I saw a shadow by the tree.

     The wind had picked up its pace. Which made the leaves rustle and make noise. My hair swept over my shoulder. My eyes widened as I looked closely.

     It was the wolf. And its green eyes are staring at me straight.

      Oh shit.

    I ran downstairs in full sprints to make sure what I saw was real. I stood behind the backyard window and looked outside to make sure he was still there. But what I saw made my heart flip. The wolf. My wolfie was staring at my bedroom window. He was just standing there with his front paws and staring at my bedroom, but that's not what made me take a step forward. It was the raw emotion in his eyes. I don't know how ridiculous it was for me to think that I can see a wolf's emotion in his eyes. But something in my heart said those were the accurate things. I saw deep longing and guilt in his eyes. I don't know what I am supposed to think right now but the deep emotions in his eyes make me want to open the only barrier that is separating us and spring forward to take him in my embrace.

I smiled after a very long time, I smiled.you deserve to cry in this hell for the rest of your life. I inhaled sharply remembering the words from the monster of my past. But it's going to be there, in my past. I'm never going to be there again. Never going to let anyone make me feel those pain again. A line of clearing came into my sight. It was like an area of beautiful mansions amongst the trees. I stopped at the fence that connected the road to the clearing. There was a small house on the right side, must be the watchman's abode.

And not to forget the fact that I'm still on the floor and she is standing there in front of me with a beautiful frown on her face. Beautiful frown! Seriously! "Hey im sorry, are you okay?" She waved her hand in front of me and that's when I realised that she was now kneeling in front of me. "I- I - im fine." I stuttered. This is the first time I stuttered in front of a girl cause I was so engrossed by her beauty that I failed to form a sentence. Are you doubting my sexuality? Don't worry. I'm doing that too. "No, you're not. Look you have twisted your leg." That's when I discover the condition I was in. I was still drooped on the floor with one ankle under
