"Hey Eva."
"Hello Nick."
"You're really a book worm. Aren't you?"
"I like to study and gaining knowledge. And, I don't like studying at home. Or anywhere except school. You know, you should try studying too."
"I'mma already done with it. Finished."
"So am I, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't gain more knowledge."
"Okay so-"
Where is everyone running to?
"What's going on?"
'Did you heard, they are going to fight?'
" Seems like a fight is going to take place. Nothing to worry about."
'Those 4 are the ones there and Sam too.'
"I am not worrying, and let's go. Never turn your back from a good fight. Ever."
"*chuckle* of course you say that."
I know. All the boys and girls look me as their little sister who needs protection from this world. We are like a family, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
"It's crowded."
"It always is."
Of course. Fights!! It- is so not a fight.
* whispering*
"Eva, this seems like bullying. Look at their faces. They are being hold and it's 13 against 4. This seems unfair. "
"They are what they are, you told me. Right?"
"Yes but-"
"No buts. They all should be able to fight and take care of themselves. Enjoy for now."
I hate to admit, but this time I am not interested in defending someone. I always try my best to defend the ones who are being bullied, but these should be able to defend themselves. They are soon to be leaders for god's shake.
Oh Satan. Thank you for blessing me with your mightiness.
"Do you all know who we are? What power our parents hold? They will kill you."
Stupid people. No one takes threats seriously. Especially empty threats like yours. No one respects you unless you achieve something on your own. You can't live on someone else's name your whole life. Deal on your own.
It's boring. They are not fighting, they are giving empty threats and bullying.
"Your parents won't be able to do anything"
"Let's go."
"Because I am friends with Lucifer."
Oh no. I was leaving but now not.
"Did he?"
"Yup he did."
"Looks like I have to involve."
"What should I do?"
"Blend in crowd."
"Yes maám."
I am fed up with people using my name. Someone is spreading rumors that she is Lucifer. I don't care. The number of people who want me dead is more then who want me to breath. And torturing? Lost counting.
She will deal with that on her own. I am not interested in being involved. She will learn NOT to spread rumors hard way.
But 'my friend'? I don't do friends. And, definitely, I WILL NOT let someone bully others using MY NAME!!!
Right at face!!.. I. AM. ANGRY. Don't tempt me.
"Owww... What the-"
"Pick someone of your size."
"HEY!! Who do you think you are to hit him like that?"
Trying to distract me with words while someone grabs from behind?? Old trick.
*duck*
*kick on the knee*
*bang head on the ground*
Three down.
Again? Sure.
Six down, Seven to go.
Why so shocked future leaders and second in command? Never saw a girl fighting?
OOhhh... caught my both hand from two direction? Easy and old move. Coming?? Ok, Come closer. Come closer.
Going for my stomach? Oookkk..
*shift*
bullseye
*kick*
*kick*
*duck*
*punch*
And.. hit right at the stomach.
Nine down, Four to go.
*slide*
*kick*
*duck*
*upper punch*
*kick*
*bang*
Twelve down, one more to go.
uh-oh. Knife? Bad choice.
"Scared? You should be."
*hold wrist, kick right on the knee*
* hit on abdomen with knee*
Writhing in pain? Good. You don't get to use me for these things. And definitely not for bullying.
"Like I said, Pick someone of your size and deal on your own."
What's with these people looking at me? Never see a girl fight before? I am not an alien. * eye roll*
Good to see the bullies writhing in pain. Luke can deal with the leader.
And, now, the moment we've all been waiting for. The teacher will say..
"Get in the principal chamber. Now."
Of course. Principal chamber.
* eye roll*
Principal? *scoff* No issue, but I something on the principal. I am fine with the detention or working in library. I just don't want Lombardi family to know about it. Unwanted questions, unwanted attention, unwanted suspicion? I don't want that.
* knock-knock *
"Miss Eva. Take a seat. And seeing you fighting, I must say I am amused, however, I need to inform your-"
"You won't. "
"Excuse me?"
"You heard me. Maybe you need, but you won't call."
"Why is that?"
"I am sure you will not want your superiors to find about your unexpected relationship to the minors. It will make a spot on your image. Wouldn't it?"
"How do you know?"
"That is for me to know and you to find out."
You are angry at me? Don't care.
"They gifted themselves at me."
"And you accepted. What's your point? They will kick you out anyways and your image will be ruined too."
"You have to be punished."
"I never said anything about that. I only said, not to call."
"*sigh* Lucifer will come knocking on my door."
"Give my name to the Lucifer. But, no call."
"Fine. You will have detention for one week."
"Anything else?"
"No."
I don't mind staying extra hour. I stay here anyway. I have issues with the call. Lombardi family shouldn't know about me.
"So.."
"I hate fight."
"But you said not to divert eyes from a fight."
"Yes Nick. But, I don't like fights when I have to fight when I don't want to."
"Oohh.. What happened anyway?"
"Detention for one week."
"O-"
"Excuse me." A girl's voice? What does she want to do now?
Oh. She's cute.
"Yes. You were saying something?"
"Thank you for helping them when no one did."
Ooooo...
"Your welcome."
She is cute, but she looks familiar. Where have I seen her?
"Why is he looking at me like that?"
"Because she is Markus's Rose."
"Go on."
"We are keeping an eye on her in complete secrecy."
"Don't you all? Point."
"Markus loves her but his father wants him to marry someone of his choice. That doesn't stop him from being all possessive over her and to scare other boys away. She doesn't have anyone except her grandfather. I would say she is weakness of Markus, but it would be a lie. However, I am worried that it may not end good for girl. She may end like her soon-to-be-in-law."
"Now, we will make sure it not to happen. Tell me how is he possessive?"
"One day a boy tried to ask her out, next day he and his friends were found in the hospital. Every girl and boy here knows not to mess with her. She is his 'property' as they say. He is not harsh with her. They talk, sometimes hang-out. He keeps her safe. He is not treating her like his father treated his mother. But that's the thing, we can never be sure."
"I know."
But she has someone special, far special wrapped in her fingers.
