"Can I leave now?" Heaven asked as she checked the time, she's already two hours lat
"Do you really have to go, are you familiar with Mitchell?"
"Are you worried about me?"
Audre cleared his throat as he straightened his back, a frown appeared on gis face. Heaven smiled "don't worry, I'm old enough to protect myself"
"Ain't worried about you, I just don't want my mom to be stressed when she finds out something bad happens to you "
"Don't worry, nothing can happen to me"
"It's up to you." Heaven got up and elegantly walked out of the house. Audre felt a bit empty. He sighed and continue with his game.
--------
Heaven arrived at Mitchell's so called address. She stood Infront of the villa which was brightly lit.
She took a step forward and made to knock. The gate opened revealing the gate keeper's face "I'm...." Heaven couldn't complete her introduction before the gate cut in "you must be Heaven"
"Yes"
"Come in, our miss has been waiting for you." Heaven nodded and followed him.
They got inside. Heaven waited about half an hour before Mitchell finally showed up. She frowned seeing Heaven looking so pretty. Her chest burned with jealousy but she quickly mask it up with a gentle smile.
"Hey, Heaven, why're you so late?"
Heaven smiled. She could sense her jealousy "Audre won't let me leave on time."
Mitchell's jealousy went to the top gear, she's so pretty and she also get to see Audre everyday.
Why can't she be the one?
Heaven chuckled, it can never be you. She laughed at Mitchell's thoughts.
"We should leave now"
"You're right" Mitchell nodded and they both head out
----------
Halfway through the party, Heaven sat slone next to the wine stand. She felt a presence approaching. Looking up, whe saw John. He smiled at her "why're you sitting here all alone?"
"No reason, I'm guess it's cool here."
John smiled and sat on the stool next to her. "You know, I figured out that you don't seem to have a whole lots of friends. But I and my friends are willing to make you our friend"
"You're wrong. I have friends, Tricia, Lila, Lydia, Sam, Zoe, Briana, Laura and Mitchell. Aren't they enough? Why should I still be friends with you guys too?"
John frowned "these girls you mentioned aren't your friends at all. You're friend with these three groups because you ain't in any group"
"See, I'm at an advantage not joining any of the three groups. So I don't want to join your group either"
John chuckled "I never asked you to join my group. We can just be normal friends"
"Which we already are"
"Oh, then would you like to join I and my dudes for a drink?"
"Not a big deal" Heaven smiled
"Please follow me"
"Sure" Heaven nodded as she got up and followed John who led her to Jim and Theo
"Hey beautiful" Theo was the first to acknowledge her "hi, I'm Heaven" she stretched out her hand for a shake. Theo took her hand and kissed it. Heaven's face darkened as she retracted her hand.
"I'm Theo. It's nice meeting you" he introduced himself. Heaven gave a light nod
"I'm Jim"
"It's nice to meet you" Heaven smiled
"Please have a seat" Jim said gentlemanly. Heaven casually sat.
They talked and laughed for a long time that Heaven almost thought they had no ill intention.
Almost.
----------
Heaven arrived home at bit late. Audre's face was cold all through and he didn't even spare her a glance.
Heaven sighed. She noticed Belinda and was about greeting her but Belinda spoke first "darling, why're you so late? Dre said you went to a friend's birthday party"
"Yes, the party ended a bit late"
"Oh my dear, you must be hungry right now"
"Nah, I'm quite full. I'd just go sleep"
"Oh, okay then. Goodnight "
Heaven nodded and moved closer to Belinda "um, why's Audre looking gloomy?"
"Don't know " Belinda shrugged
"Oh. I'd head to my room now"
Belinda nodded watching Heaven leave.
Audre who has been sitting in the living room all day also got up "goodnight mom"
"Goodnight sweetie " Belinda smiled. Audre left leaving her alone in the living room with a huge smile on her face.
Cole walked into the living room shortly only to see a huge smile playing on his wife's face. A suspicious look appeared on his face "hey baby, what's making you smile so much?"
"Just happy for Audre"
Cole frowned "okay.....so what's up with him?"
Belinda gave a dreamy look as she clasped her hand together "he's finally in love"
"In love? With who?" Cole looked extremely confused. Belinda however still maintained her smile and gave a shocking response "Heaven."
"Heaven? How did you know that?"
"Intuition. I trust my intuition and besides didn't you notice he's been in the living room since he finished doing the dishes"
"Yeah, that's true. I was going to ask about that. He goes to his room immediately he finishes with the dishes"
"But today was different. He was in the living room looking gloomy and didn't even say a word. It was after Heaven came back that he finally left"
"So that's why you conclude that he likes her? Have you forgotten that they fight almost all the time?"
"Dear, I'm an expert in this area. Straight men like you won't understand. He doesn't want to admit his feelings for her, that's why they mostly fight but you should've realized it's been a while they fought"
"That's true. But he takes after his mom"
Belinda feigned a frown as she hit him "I heard that." Cole laughed and sat next to her, pulling her into a hug.
------------
Heaven got to her room. She was damn hungry. She only told Belinda otherwise because she wants to enjoy some fairy snacks.
She sat on her bed and waved her hand. Varieties of snacks appeared. She smiled and happily began to munch them.
Audre who was passing paused when he saw her door slightly opened. He wanted to close it but was also tempted to take a look inside. He was stunned to see the room so beautiful. Flowers were hanging all over the wall. If one isn't careful, you'd think her room is a flower garden.
He saw he sitting on her bed but was stunned by the next thing he saw. With just the wave if her hand, snacks and junks were all over her bed. He quietly retreated and closed the door making sure it didn't make a sound.
Heaven felt she heard the sound of her door close but was too busy with her snacks to care about that.
---------
At school, Heaven was so bored alone. She decided to go find Audre for the first. She walked for awhile.
She wasn't sure if he has eaten because she never sees him in the cafeteria. A lunch bag appeared in her hand. A satisfied smile appeared on her lips as she head on with only one thing on her mind. FIND AUDRE.
She got to a class. She could feel his presence inside the class. A feeling of relief washed over her. She exhaled and gently pushed the door opened and walked in.
Audre who was busy working on a project looked at the intruder sharply. His gaze relaxed when he saw that she's the one.
"What're you doing here?"
Heaven gave a smile, "I thought you wouldn't have eaten lunch amd would be hungry, so I decided to bring you something"
Audre looked at her and then the lunch bag. He suddenly remembered what he saw yesterday and gulped. He let out a cough "you can drop it"
"Okay, but I want to watch you eat it"
Audre frowned "why?"
"So I can be rest assured that you've eaten"
"Is it poisoned?" Audre asked
Heaven frowned slightly "why would you think it's poisoned? I can never poison you. I just want you to eat. If you don't want to eat, I won't leave"
"Fine " Audre had no choice but to compromise.
A small smile appeared on Heaven's face. His heart skipped a beat and he quickly looked away putting aside what he's doing and decided to eat.
Heaven sat infront of him watching as he took each bite. Audre felt it was creepy. He cleared his throat and looked at her "um....do you want to eat?"
"No, it's for you"
"Then can you stop looking at me?" He asked
Heaven smiled "sure." She answered but still kept looking at him. Audre's ears turned red.
Heaven suddenly paused "I need to go check something outside, I'd be back in a jiffy" she said and quickly made it outside.
She saw Mitchell heading over "hey!"
Mitchell looked at her and forced a gentle smile. "Hi, what are you doing here?"
"Came to check my brother"
"Oh..." Mitchell mumbled as a froen appeared on her face. She quickly recomposed herself and looked at Heaven who was questioning her, "Are you also going to see him?"
"Yeah"
"He isn't going to take this from you, right?"
Mitchell felt embarrassed "it doesn't matter"
"It does, let me give it to him, he'll definitely take it from me"
Mitchell felt reluctant. Heaven could guess what she's thinking and gave a sly smile "don't worry, I'll tell him it's from you after he eats it"
"Okay, thanks." Mitchell agreed and gave her the bag.
Heaven smirked "you can go now"
Mitchell nodded and left. The bag disappeared and she head back to Audre's class.
Just as she was walking on, she heard movements behind her. She paused and turned around. There were three guys standing looking at her.
"Hey!" One of the called with a smile. Heaven frowned "hi?"
The three guys exchanged glances "she's truly Audre's sister. They both have this cold aura"
Heaven couldn't sense any unusual thought from them but she still maintained her indifferent look "what do you want?"
The guys laughed "calm down beauty, we're your brother's friends. I'm Adrian" one of them spoke.
"Milo"
"Harper"
"Oh, so what do you need from me?"
"Nothing. Just wanted to say hi"
Before Heaven could respond, a deep voice spoke "and that you've done. Now leave"
