~*Chapter 2*~

 

 

 

Stelix tried her very best to ignore Daemon's intense stares. She stabbed her melting ice cream and ate a spoonful of it all in one swallow.

 

“You look gross” Daemon muttered under his breath but she heard it anyway.

 

“Mind your own business” she replied weakly

 

“You called me here to let me watch you eat your ice cream?”

 

Stelix nodded and continued eating. Daemon sighed in defeat. He had this feeling that something happened but at the same time Stelix was not going to tell him no matter how much he would push her to spill it.

 

 

 

Sloan watched closely as Stelix got off Daemon's bike and handed him his helmet. Daemon said something to her that made her laugh aloud.

To be honest with himself, everything he was seeing right at this moment made everything inside of him burn with a strong jealousy. How could a guy as tough and as cold as Daemon make Stelix laugh?

 

`He's not a two timing idiot' his conscience screamed at him. He tried to tear his gaze away.

 

Not wanting to see any more of Stelix and Daemon getting alond too well, he decided to leave, but before he could even start his engine, a shocking move from Stelix almost sent him bolting out of the car.

 

Steelix was always really glad that Daemon was around whenever she needed him. She appreciates it when he accompanies her without asking any W questions. He just keeps quiet and makes sure she doesn't get into to trouble.

 

She could not give him gifts to show her gratitude because he doesn't like those stuff. She can't treat him to anything because he doesn't like girls spending money on him. So she gave him her last option. Stepping forward with a smile she slowly wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him.

 

Daemon's eyes widened at what Stelix did. “Thank you.” he heard her whisper to him. A small smile appeared on his face and he returned the hug.

 

Stella Alexandra “Stelix” Vanhenderson is an extraordinary girl who gave up her popularity simply because she was tired of it. It was a shocker for the whole school, and to him. He knew that Stella Alexandra was prideful and he hated her for it, but the moment she stepped into school with nothing but a t-shirt and jeans on, his views on were her completely changed. He began to see the real her, especially when she began mingling with his clique and then decided to befriend full on.

 

And no matter what happens, he won't deny the fact that he likes- no, loves her.

 

Sloan was close to throwing his car door open when his phone went off. It was a call from Kenya. He answered it and at the same time left Stelix's place.

 

 

Kenya watched closely as Sloan stabbed his pork chop with his fork. His expression was unreadable and his eyes looked bloodshot.

 

“Slow, is something the matter?” she asked softly.He just shook his head and stood up to make his leave.

 

Pentraust stared at her best friend, who stopped eating the moment Sloan left. Her eyes narrowed at him. Kenya has been worried sick for him the whole night and now he was ignoring her.

 

“Ken, I think you should follow him” she suggested.

 

Kenya shook her head “It's not best to interfere with someone who's obviously not in his right senses.”

 

“He just ignored you” she pointed out.

 

Kenya only smiled sadly, and refused to talk about it any longer.

 

 

`Meet me @ mah place' Daemon flipped his phone shut and ran his fingers through his hair. Kenya texted him and he knew what that meant. He wanted to go alright, but he was still waiting for Stelix. Ever since that car incident, he made sure to always follow her home just in case something would happen.

 

But today Stelix seems to be late, she usually leaves at 4:30. Another text arrived from Kenya.

 

`I want sum1 to talk 2…just hd trouble w/ Sloan' He frowned and decided not to wait on Stelix any longer. He'd just check on her later.

 

As soon as he stepped into her bedroom, he saw that she was on her bed crying, with nothing on but her big t-shirt. She looked up, her eyes puffy. He slowly went to her and sat at the side of her bed. Tears started to fall from her eyes and she embraced him.

 

“I think he's cheating on me” She hiccupped.

 

Daemon slowly stroked her hair but said nothing

 

“I'm scared, what if he breaks up with me” She cried again.

 

Daemon sighed and pulled her out of his embrace. He stared at her toffee-colored eyes and saw nothing but sadness and unease.

 

“You said it yourself Ken, he's a good guy” He watched as Kenya's lips trembled but decided to continue speaking. “Maybe he's dealing with a big problem right now and he doesn't want you to get involved with it.”

 

Kenya sobbed and looked down. Daemon slowly lifted her chin and kissed her fully on the lips. He wiped the tears from her eyes with the pad of his thumb and laid her on bed. He was on top of her.

 

Kenya wrapped her arms around his neck as he kissed her forehead and her lips alternatively. Her worries were shoved somewhere in the back of her brain as soon as Daemon began taking off the little clothes she had on.

 

Three hours later, Kenya woke up and found Daemon still on her bed, asleep. A smirk played on her lips as she recalled what happened earlier. As she watched his chest rise and fall she did not resist the feeling of touching his strong jaw and his nose which was perfectly shaped like those of the aristocrats of old England. But her actions were halted when Daemon's phone vibrated.

 

There was a text message from Stelix: `Daemon wer u @ can u come at my place, I need some1, something bad happened'

 

Kenya glared at the text message before she deleted it. Suddenly she was feeling possessive of Daemon. She didn't want him to leave.

 

Funny she feels that way; she loves Sloan not Daemon. Everything that they are doing here is just for comfort. She bit her lip and took a glance at him. And besides… Daemon loves somebody else. All she needs to do is to drill the facts into her head- Daemon already loves someone and she loves Sloan, simple.

 

 

 

Stelix leaned against the door and crumpled to the floor as she cried. She never thought Sloan would harass her. She felt so unclean and violated. She ran towards her bathroom and showered with her clothes on. She shivered as she lay in bed, dripping wet and soaking the sheets, but not caring at all.

 

The image of Sloan's lustful emerald eyes wouldn't leave her mind. The feeling of his lips as he tried to get her to respond to his kisses was sickening.

`Daemon' she whispered painfully. She badly needed his presence; she wanted him to comfort her. But she texted him awhile ago and until now there was still no response.

 

Her eyes started to drop in exhaustion when her door bell rang. She quickly stood up and opened it. “Daemon!” she cried and clung to him like he was what help her life.

Some stories are bitter sweet just like his and Kenya's, but what Stelix told him about her and Sloan was just twisted and unforgivable. Considering what happened that afternoon, he shouldn't have left her alone. He gritted his teeth as he remembered her story.

Stella Alexandra at the height of her popularity fell in love with the Reeve Grhan's biggest geek: Sloan Pettischuter. They shared forbidden romance for the fact that they were both at the opposite ends of the social ladder. Sloan always wanted to be popular and he got his chance with Kenya. Stella at that time was getting ready to give up everything for Sloan, when she did, it was all too late.

 

But she was too forgiving as well as she was too much in love, so she forgave him and agreed to continue their relationship in secret. He wasn't willing to let her go either. But the final trigger was finally pulled, and Stelix had enough of it.

“I broke up with him” She told Daemon during their conversation.

“Is that for good?” He asked her.

She nodded in a way that meant it was final.

 

“Good, and don't worry if you want me to beat him up. Trust me I wouldn't hesitate to do it for you.” And for me, he thought darkly to himself.

Daemon stroked Stelix hair and then kissed her hand. Tomorrow somebody was going to receive his blows, even if Stelix didn't ask it of him.

Stelix never left Daemon's side the whole day. Occasionally she would see Sloan with Kenya and stiffen, but Daemon would always put his hand on her shoulder and lightly push her forward to continue walking.

Sloan was driving Kenya home when suddenly a motorbike came out of nowhere and stopped just a few meters ahead of them. He immediately stepped on the breaks to avoid collision.

 

The rider was no other than Damien Monraegon.
