Why did this book get popular when I went on hiatus/slow update? Anyway, if you didn't read the author note, there is more to chapter 14 that was for some reason deleted. By the way, this Aragon and Areon are different from the other book. I just forgot I used the same name. Now let's get back to the story.
Eros p.o.v.
After meeting with Damien's uncle, I went back to the room and studied it in my room. There wasn't anything that helped me in it. It was just filled with theories and stories of the scarab. Though it was really interesting. Most of the theories came from my family's ancestors. Some were crazy, but others were actually possible.
I got so intrigued with the book, that I completely forgot about Hebe. She came into my room and yelled at me for ditching her. After she was done, we hung out for a little while till it was time for me to meet up with Ian, Braydon, and Damien.
That is where I am right now. Waiting for the other three show up. I was fifteen minutes early, so it wasn't much of a surprise.
"Hey where is everyone," a voice asks. I get startled and jump. I look around for the voice, but I can't see anybody talking to me. "Up here Arrow." I look up and see Damien hovering over me with his dragon wings. Everybody in this part of town is a castor, so we're not worried about exposure.
"You now really look like a demon," I comment, with a little chuckle.
Damien huffs at me. He flies in front of me and flips upside down, so now his face facing me. He glares at me and crosses his arms. Then I see horns start to appear on his head and his eyes start glowing. A few black and purple scales appear on the side of his face and they go down to his neck. He then gives me a little smirk on his face. "Now what."
I shrug. "Isn't this the moment when the superhero kisses the more attractive love interest that is totally out of his league," I say with a smirk. He glares at me, making me chuckle. "Come down here Demon."
He does a flip in the air and lands in front of me. His wings, scales, and horns disappear and his eyes go back to normal. "And I thought I was the arrogant one."
"You are. I'm just stating the facts."
He rolls his eyes at me and looks around for the others, but doesn't see them. "I thought the movie started at 7:30," he says. He checks his watch and frowns. "It's already 7:40."
I snort at his words. "The movie starts at eight o'clock actually. Ian probably told you earlier, because you're always late."
"Actually the movie starts at 7:50, but I knew you were going to be here super early," another voice says. We turn and see Ian riding a horse, towards us. When he's close enough he jumps off of it and the animal shifts into Braydon. "So we're all actually here on time." I hear Damien chuckle behind me and I turn and smack him in the arm.
The four of us walk into the movie theater and start our movie date.
Ivan p.o.v.
"C'mon Kenny, talk to me," I beg Kendall. He is currently laying on his bed, reading about some satellite and I am trying to get him to talk to me about the party incident.
He shrugs his shoulders. "There is nothing to talk about. I was drunk, he was drunk, and we had intercourse. The two of us don't even remember most of it," he tells me. I groan and put my head in his pillow. Kendall isn't good talking about his emotions, which isn't healthy. Instead he pushes them down and tries to distract himself from them.
I put my head out of the pillow and look at him. "Well it was your first time, so it must have been a big deal," I say quietly, as I feel my face redden.
He puts the book closer to his face to try to hide the little blush he has. "It's just intercourse. What does it matter if it was my first time," he says, kind of harshly. He was trying to control his anger, but it wasn't working.
I grab him by the waist and hug him. I know he's hurting, no matter how hard he tries to deny it. "It's going to be okay," I tell him. I see he has a couple of tears pooling in his eyes, but he refused to shed them. He blinked a bunch of time to try to get rid of them.
"It doesn't matter. All reproductive organisms are wired to desire intercourse, the same as we are wired to desire food. It's for the survival of our species. We were just trying to satisfy our needs at that moment." His voice when he said that was different. He said it with no emotion, like a robot. Whenever he tells us facts, he's always sounds so fascinated about them.
"We're humans, well castors but you know what I mean. We're not robots. We feel sadness, anger, and pain, so it's okay to express them."
He opens his mouth to say something, but there is a knock on the door. The two of us weren't expecting anybody, so we frown in confusion. He tells them to come in and the door opens to show Jordan and Zane. I see Kendall's hand tremble a little.
"Kendall, we need to talk," Zane says.
Kendall shrugs. "There's nothing to talk about."
"I need to use the bathroom," I say. I jump out of the bed and run directly to the ensuite, without looking back at them. When I run in, quickly close the door, so non of them can come in. I put my head against the door and sigh. I haven't talked to Jordy yet and I don't think I'm ready for the rejection.
"Hello," a voice says behind me.
I jump from the voice and turn to see who it was. I get surprised when I see its Jordy. "How did you get in here," I yell, holding my hand to my chest.
He smiles sheepishly at me. "I beat you in here."
"Oh. Well could you leave, I need to pee," I lie. I don't want to talk to him right now.
He smirks and walks closer to me, making me go back and hit the door behind me. "Go ahead," he says, when he's in front of me.
I cross my arms. "Jordan you're kind of in the way." He moves out of the way to let me pass. I point to the door, indicating him to leave, but the jerk doesn't leave. "Go."
He shakes his head. "I'm staying in here. I need to talk to you." I shake my head at him. I don't want to talk and he can't make me. "I like you," he blurts out, making me freeze.
I look up at him, to see if he was teasing or something. His face is serious, which never happens. "W-what?"
Jordan steps closer, till my face meets his chest. Dang him for being super tall. I look up at him and I feel my face flush from the way he looks at me. It's an intense stare that makes my insides feel weird. He then gets down on one knee and holds my hand.
"Will you go on a date with me Ivy," Jordan asks me.
Damien p.o.v.
The movie was great. I loved every second of it, even though it felt a little awkward at first. There were a lot of people, so there wasn't any chairs for the four of us to sit on. Ian and Braydon sat in one row and Eros and I sat in the row behind them. I at first suggested that Ian and Eros in the front and Braydon and I in the back, but Braydon quickly said no to that. He wanted to sit next Ian.
It was awkward, because people thought that me and Eros were on some sort of date and kept saying what a cute couple we were. Some other girls tried to flirt with us, but I didn't feel interested. This was guys night.
After the movie was over, we all met up in the front of the theater. "Is anybody hungry," Arrows asks us.
"Yeah. Do you guys know any good place to eat," Braydon asks.
"There is a Castle Valentine in this plaza. I can get us some free food," Arrows offers. We all agree to the free food and go out looking for the Castle Valentine. We make a little small talk as we look for the restaurant. Eros tells us that the place has the best burgers in the whole universe, which makes us decide to all order burgers.
When we find the place, we are seated very quickly when they see Arrows. They then ask us what we want and the whole meal is on the house. We tell them we want burgers and they quickly go to make them.
"Mr. Castillo, is there anything else I can get you," the waiter, Greg asks as he sets our food down. I see him give Eros a flirtatious smile when he asks him.
Eros blushes a little, which makes my dragon growl at him. "C-could we get some Oreo pie," he asks, kind of shyly. Greg nods his head and tells us, he'll be back in a sec.
"What was that," I ask Eros. He shrugs his shoulders and takes a bite of his burger. I look at the others and I see Ian giggling at something Braydon said. "Don't tell me you don't know. I saw the way you looked at him."
Eros rolls his eyes. "I thought he looked kind of cute. What's the problem with that?"
This makes my blood boil, but before I can say anything, the bastard comes over with the pie and puts it down. "Here you are Mr. Castillo. Anything else." He had a kind of dreamy look as he looked down at Eros.
I quickly grab Eros hand and say, "No. We're good, right babe?" Eros was too shock to answer and the others had their jaws dropped. Greg's face was cheery red from embarrassment. He nodded his head and quickly walked away.
"Why the hell did you do that," Eros yelled, snatching his hand away. I did feel a little hurt from the action, but I just pretended not to care. I shrug my shoulders at him.
"I didn't trust the guy." I start eating my burger as Eros glares at me.
After that, we talked a little more as we ate. Eros kept on glaring at me, but I didn't really care. As long as that guy stopped flirting with my Arrows. Though that wasn't really a problem since we got a new waiter.
Now we are walking back to the palace, since nobody brought their car.
"I still hate you," Eros says.
I roll my eyes at him. "It's not a big deal. It's just a guy, you'll find another one soon." This is starting to really pissed me off. All he's been talking about is Greg this and Greg that, like seriously, he acts like he's the last gay man in the world. It's so annoying.
"That wasn't cool though," Ian defends. "It's hard to find an attractive gay guy that doesn't just want sex."
"Yeah yeah."
Eros glares at me. "You wouldn't understand. All you care abou--DAMIEN LOOK OUT." Eros pushes me out of the way from something behind me and we land on the ground.
I look over at where I was standing and see a guy in all black wearing gold skull masks holding a dagger. The guy then goes to stab Ian, but Braydon cast a spell to create a stone wall to protect him. Braydon then cast a spell to throw a cement block at the person.
The gold man dodges it, by rolling right under it. He goes to attack Braydon, but Ian cast a spell and turns the ground into lava, stopping the man. The guy then turns to us with his dagger. I'm ready to throw a pyro fire ball at him, but before I can, a big lava ninja star cuts off the man's hand making the dagger fall and land right next to me and Eros. The gold man doesn't scream like I expected him to. Instead he looks at us and then disintegrates into black smoke. I sigh in relief and sit up.
"Damien," a voice wheezes. I look down and see Eros in my arms. I see him putting pressure on his stomach as some blood comes out.
"Oh my God Eros. Hold on," I say, picking him up. The others come towards me with worry on their faces.
"Help," is the last thing he says, before he closes his eyes.
Duh duh duh. I hope you liked it. Please comment follow and share
