I wiped the blood off my hands with her school uniform, picked up my teddy and rushed off to the bathroom to wash my hands with water and soap... I didn't feel any glimpse of fear at all and I didn't know why? I cleaned up myself ready to face the school authority. I checked my phone if it had any crack. Luckily for me, there was none...
"Teddy, are you okay?". I said as I walked out of the bathroom.
"I'm sorry for all that have happened since morning and I promise to compen..." I bumped into someone.
*STEVE*
He stared deeply into my eyes and I also stared into his, I really wanted to know what he was thinking about but I couldn't just do it... I really wished I could find the herbalist that helped me in taming my vampiric state... I guess he could have a way to help me see through this Fanna's family and also know why I can't see through them; before I could say anything, he carried me up(princess style) my teddy and phone in my hands then we moved to the cafeteria... I was kinda shy though•all eyes were on me•
"Where you there the whole time?"
"Yeah". He replied with no expression as he bit the piece of cake in his hand looking towards a particular direction. I looked towards the direction he was staring at in order to see what he was looking at...
*Ah~Cassy and her crew*
"You miss them". I said with a creased brow.
"No". He said now sipping from his drink still looking at them.
"I guess cassy is also..."
"Don't talk about her". He cut in with a cold voice still looking at them. I wasn't sure what that look meant but it wasn't a good one at all, I couldn't continue staying in the tense atmosphere like that so I broke the silence...
"If you were around the entire time while I fought with Serine and Bint, why didn't you stop me or help me?"
"You didn't need help moreover I helped you". He answered still staring at Cassy.
"Really? When?" I wasn't going to ask him to stop staring at them, I'll just keep my cool...
"I stopped movement"
"Stop speaking in parables, weren't you the one that told me not to care about what they say about me? So why are you the one suddenly shying away now? Besides no one can hear us or don't you love m..."
"Shut your trap". He said now looking at me.
"Then talk to me the way you usually do when we're at home and stop speaking in parables"
"Pick up your phone and open it you'll see a message". He said and returned his gaze to Cassy, I still remembered all he thought me about using a phone. I opened the phone and checked for a new message but didn't see any message.
"I didn't see..."
"Whatsapp". He said still staring at Cassy, I saw a message from Boody and Steve, I opened his own first and it read:
"Can't talk properly, there are camera's around. Don't bother checking for it because you won't see them... Your life is at risk; Cassy and her friends are planning something silly, but don't give it a thought, I gat someone watching over you at all times even at home..." I glanced over at him and saw him still staring at Cassy and her friends, then I typed:
"Okay babe, thanks for the efforts and about Cassy, don't worry about her she'll definitely come around someday. Don't use because of another girl to loose your sister moreover she's your blood and you too shouldn't try to harm each other". After typing it, I sent it to him and started going through the videos Boody sent to me, they were videos of Cassy and her friends planning on how to kidnap me and take me to a certain place after school... They had planned on kidnapping me and throwing me into a flowing stream so that I wouldn't be able to escape
I didn't know she loved her brother this much but whatever feelings she has for him can only be retained if she gets to accept me as her brother's lover or even as his fiance because she hating me wasn't going to stop me from loving Steve...
We went back to class immediately the bell for the end of lunch break was rung... I thought teachers would possibly be in my class waiting to punish me but I didn't see any... It was just the subject teacher that we had that particular period that came, things went as usual except for the fact that Bint and her crew weren't in class...
We got home that day a little bit late because Steve and I went around town looking for something that would suit mom...
"Mom were home!" I said as soon as I got home.
"Oh welcome dear, I was worried you both didn't come with the others. So what made you both stay back?"
"Okay Steve and I went to get something in town for the world best momma".
"Mom thanks for everything". Steve said and brought out a bracelet and placed it on her neck then he left to his room almost immediately.
"And tada!!!" I said and brought out a bag that I've been hiding at my back.
"Here mom, thanks for being the world best momma" I said and removed a purely white teddy from the bag I was holding. Steve had insisted that I should get her something else but I didn't give it a thought, he said his mom was too matured for a teddy but I didn't listen to him...
"Awwn~thanks". She said collecting the teddy from me and giving me a hug... I could read her mind perfectly well...
"She was happy she now had something to play with when I wasn't at home... She already gave the teddy a name in her mind, she was quite happy with her new gift".
We both spent the rest of the evening with our Teddys strapped to our back even during dinner...
