All Chapters of COLLIDE WITH THE HANDSOME DEMON: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Rayline. I knocked on Darren's bedroom door repeatedly, waiting for an answer, crossing my arms as my legs began to twitch, unable to stay still. When he opened it, he saw my confused expression and sighed. "I knew you'd come," he said as he stepped aside and I went to the door. "How is that mess over there?" "Why do you say that?" I asked as I followed him into his room. I'd actually gone straight to Darren's after meeting up with Cole earlier. "Well, didn't Cole show up there?" he asked casually as if he already knew. I paused, confused as to how he knew Cole was there when he closed the door. "How did you know?" "Because he called me." He shrugged. "How do you think he knew where you were?" "What? Wait, hold on a second," I said as I sat down on the edge of his bed and tried to digest what he had just said. "He called me on Taylor's phone and asked where you and Hayden went out," he explained to me. "And you just told him?" I reply, wanting to know if he told him or not. "

Rayline. I walked along the sidewalk, keeping my eyes on the street. Cole's house is pretty far away, but that didn't mean I didn't have other places to visit, so I decided to go there. Although it would have been better if I'd gone earlier, because it was late afternoon now, which meant the sun would be setting soon. I looked at each house number, following it until I reached the one on the paper Taylor had given me. The house was small and simple. There was nothing strange or out of the ordinary about it. In fact, it looked cozy to me. I saw a path, but I stopped walking when I started to wonder. After all, Cole wouldn't be expecting me; maybe he'd be upset... or maybe he'd be mad at me. Maybe I should try calling him first. I started walking around with mixed feelings, unable to make a decision. After a while of stalling, I took a breath. "I'll ask if he's okay... yeah..." I muttered and straightened my body before starting to walk back to his house. When I reached the door, I r

Rayline. "Chase is an angel. He was born during my mom's first marriage, but they separated after a while. So when I was born, people assumed my mom had me before they split up. At least the timing of it was almost right." I nodded along with him, and he took a deep breath. "For us, angels get their wings when they reach a certain age, around fifteen. I remember when Chase got his wings, they were bright and beautiful, sparkling like freshly fallen snow..." he continued. "And I'll never forget the day I got my wings - the look on everyone's faces, the horror when they saw my black wings... One look and they all knew." His eyes were sparkling blue as he explained, and I felt my heart begin to sink. He was just a boy who had done nothing but be judged by his peers for the way he looked. "This is why they dragged my mother from our home before the archangels, and my mother knows there is no way to hide it. I was living proof of her sin. So as punishment, she was stripped of her powers

Rayline. It was now Friday, and I hadn't seen him since that night, he was still busy with his own business, while I was too busy with my college work. But at least he always makes time to text me when he's home, and we had a few phone conversations as well as some unimportant text messages. After talking to him on the phone last noon, I put my cell phone on the nightstand as I walked to the closet. I didn't think I needed to dress up too much, but for some reason, the fact that I was going to meet Cole made me want to at least look good for him. So I grabbed a cute pair of shorts and an attractive top before applying my makeup and styling my hair to make it look better. I look down and see his jacket on the floor - the one he left me the night he flew me home. I had accidentally forgotten to return it. So I reached over and picked up the jacket and packed up my laptop and books before I left. ***** I walked down the small path to the front of his house with my backpack on my shou

Rayline. We both got out of the car and walked up the large driveway to the extremely large house. Just like last time, there was a hint of nervousness as I walked closer, passing all the groups of people. As we walked, I realized that I was going to a party with Cole Spencer - the guy that girls could never get enough of. And just looking at some of the girls outside, I started to feel uncomfortable. Yeah, because those girls' eyes were looking at me with a terrifying expression. As if I'd stolen their boyfriends. "What's wrong?" Cole turned to me and I shook my head. "Nothing... It's just these people... and I'm here with you." Then he furrowed his brow and I laughed. "Just a little self-conscious," I shrugged. Then he caught my eyes turning to the girls who were watching the two of us walk, and he quickly wrapped an arm around my shoulder, pulling me closer to his side. I gave him a strange look, but he continued walking towards the door, not even looking at all the eyes that we
