It was a heavy silence...no sound came out from the tow teenagers who were eating elegantly on the opposite sides of the table but the chatter of the forks and spoons on the plats.
Alexander would sneak from time to time a galnce at the girl infront of him, the strangely warm and confusingly comferting sensation started the secound she were behind the huge aokwood doors of the library, she was right on time as well which pleased him...he hate lateness.
Alexander were searching Christa Grayson.... she was an enigma to him...like a puzzle that couldn't be solved no matter how many different ways you look at it, it was as if his mind were clouded in a soft fog...and another gravity started to pull him slowly to her, he can't take her scent out of his mind after he smelled it when he stood right behind her... her clean rosey smell, it was like taking a wift of water lilies and fresh Rosemary, an odd but at the same time a very calming and sweet scent. On the other hand, Christa mind were focused on stoping her hands from shake from her nervousness, and ignore the looks that were thrown at her by Alexander.
(Well great ! that just great...this day is just getting better and better... here I am, in my free time...sitting with the arrogant idiot..who is staring at me like a child stare at a monkey in the zoo, why did he summon me here for anyway?, why did he made lunch for tow, did he think...No!..no no no no !, he didn't, why would he think this was a date?..no no Christa you are just freaking out, you are thinking too much, this just some silly trick to rattens his fan girls club more...and make them hate you more..and in result make your life more hell than it is...nothing more...right?, its not like he likes you..or feel a strange warm comferting feeling when you are around him as will....which by the way is crazy and totally all from your imagination...) Christa could not keep quite anymore and spoke a little louder than necessary :"Soo...its a nice day!" and she wanted to kill herself right then and there for that,(Seriously !?, its a nice day?...how pathetic can you get Grayson?).Alexander were surprised for a secound then replied with calm amusment:"It is miss Grayson...how are you finding the food?..good I hope", Christa only replied with a slow nod and returned to eat silently.
The thickness in the air returned, and before it could suffocates them, the great doors of the library banged open by a very cheerful Sebastian saying in a lowd over happy voice:" Alexander !!!, my dear dear boring friend, I did not see you today and my eyes are about to become bline from that, where are you!??....I need my daily dose of my dull friend I ....." his words came to a sudden halt upon seeing them, Sebastian stood as a statue for a minute...his mouth were hanged open comicaly, and his eyes seemed to almost fall out of his face.Sebastian then started to stutter in embarrassment:" You are not alone I see...I aaammm...I was... Hi miss Grayson! how are you today?, soo...you seem good before me coming in and shouting like an idiot soo...I'm just gonna...its better in the first place...sooo...ya I I'm turning around aaand leaveing..." he signed the whole thing with a silly smile before he all but ran out of the library.
Alexander and Christa took a minute to understand what just happened, then Alexander snaped out of his thoughts about his crazy friend by Christas shoulders shacking up and down, soon it was followed by her laugh, a full hearted, loud yet soft like twinking bells laughter and He.Was.Lost.
Alexander never heard anything more beautiful, warmth spread thru his heart and soul.He came out of the blissful haze by her voice saying in amused light tone:" He seemed nice, a little odd but nice non less, he's your friend right?, how long dud you know each other?..he seemed very easy going with you".
Alexander:"Tow year,even thought it feels much longer than that.Our families were close, and well...we get to know each other and became close friends as well.Now..my day is not complete if he didn't do something that would make me want to kill him, what you have just seen is nothing... his usuall dislodged and japes... lets just say he's a handful" Alexander shock his head foundly and continued:"..he's a good friend, loyal, honest and relyable when its time for seriosness.Sebastian became like a brother to me in those tow years we know each other in".
Christa smiled softly saying:" You are lucky to have such a good friend", then the silence came back , but it was not the thick and heavy one from before, it was a comfertable one where you are at ease with not saying or doing any thing.Christa collected some courage to look in the eyes of Alexander and ask softly but with seriousnss:"Why I am here Alexander? realy, what is that you want from me, please be honest".
Alex hand froze on the water glass he was about to raise, and felt himself drown in those amethystine colored eyes, he answered calmly yet he was sure she could hear the hidden willful tone he added:"I nevee uttered a single lie to you Miss Grayson, and I never will.I was just curious about you since the application for your joining the student council came to my attention, it was hightly viewed by the student and teaching body.An intelligent, brave and kind girl who knows how to pick her battels in wisdom. I realy wanted to know that girl, to see for myself what everyone else saw in you, and you did not disappoint", Christa couldn't breath let alone speak, she can feel the heat rush to her cheeks and can swear her face is completely red much to her embarrassment, when she finaly were able to speak she said lowly:"Thank you for your kind words, I..I" she could not think of anything else to say, but that all went with a storm of hot anger and cold chaotic judgment.Christa next words cut the air like steel knive, and her eyes seemed to see thru his very soul and send a starnge shiver down his spine to his finger tips," Did you know?, did you know the behavior and treatment of your council members ?, the crule and arrogante things and words they were doing and saying that hert and humiliate the other students just because they were wearing this silver brooch?", Alexander for the first time in his life felt judged, her seeing him in this bad light... it hert him.It was very strange..mad even for he never cared before how anyone saw him, he was a leader and leaders don't follow cheeps opinion s, no..they command them .
He always never cared when someone called him wierd or arrogant or boring behind his back even when who say that didn't even spoke a word to him, know him to judge him like that and yet...yet here he is...sitting infront of this girl, staring at her amethystine eyes, his heart felt like there were a tight grip warping itself around it, he wanted... needed to proof himself.. his inocennt infrot of her, there were no buts or whys, just her and this foreign derad in his mind. Alexander:" No, I did not, I am ashamed to say that before the accident that happened with your friend and you...no word would have reached me on the matter.But I assure you I did not take that maltreatment and bad behavior lightly, and had personaly give words to the responseple parties on the matter and firmly commanded that another similar acts and doings were not to be easely passed on , or without disastrous results on the doer".Christa eyes seemed to see the soulful honesty in his eyes as his words, which made her eyes soften and ther face became warmer then she spoke:"Thank you, mister president, I appreciate your effort and hope that our work togather would bring unity between all the students", Alex replied:" Me too miss Grayson, me to"
Christa with still flushed cheeks:"Christa...please call me Christa"
Alexander:"Only if you called me Alexander"
Christa then let a small warm smile take over her face and said :"Well then Alexander is it".
The tow teenagers came out after a while from the library...both have seen something new in each other, something that would be the beginning of a beautiful friendship..
Not knowing that they were been sit on a road...a road that Fate itself drown for them, like it did to the ones before them, and soon...soon they will see each other in a new light, a different light..that would change their view of not just each other...but the world itself.
OUTSIDE OF THE CITY:
A very expinseve black car speeded down the hightway leading to the city, the car had three passengers, tow black suit dressed muscular men in the front seats, and a lone teenager in the back one.
The stone faced men would spair him a look form time to time, the sleeping black haired teenager laid his head on the glass of the window, eyes close in as mush sleepness one could have in a moving car.
A ring, then another, then another then one of the men answered the phone with emotionless tone:"Yes, Yes sir, we are about to reach the city....about 20 minutes...yes...he is asleep...no...no...yes sir, as you wich, yes I had a reply from the mansion staff everything is in order...yes, all the official documents were done for the hightschool registration..Yes sir" and the line were cut.
The car went silence for the next 20 minutes as the car crossed the welcoming sign of the city and towrs a mansion on the outscert of it.
The place were big...huge even , with a old victorian style that added to its darkness and obscuration.
The teenager opened his silver gray eyes and srightened himself on the seat, it took a secound to the gaurds to open the door for him.
He silently came out and slowly..almost in pigritis walked to the open doors that lead to the main hall, there stood all the staff like stone statues, eyes and faces emotionless.When he reached the middle of the grand room everyone bowed their head and said as one:" Welcom, master Soulderk".
The teenage boy only nodded and went to the stairs that lead to his bedroom to sleep.
AT THE SAME TIME:
Alexander uncle, William were staring at a dark mirrore in one of the hidden rooms under the whitewood, the mirrore were dark and dusty, the cracks spread across it surface like the spider weps that covered the room conores, for any normal man, there were nothing to see there...only many reflections of oneself because the shuttered pieces of class, but for him, there were a hazzy, foggy images...a small dark jem on a dark bone Scepter... dark fire surrounded a field of lilies... and last but not last silver eyes turn to blood red color.
William gasped when he pulled away from the dark vistion, and an ominous feeling stilled it self in his chest.William thought:(Something is coming, and what ever it is, is not good...not good at all).
