I felt like a gate. A gate was a doorway to new things, most would say. But in my case, it most definitely wasn't. I was closed off to people, I kept them out and didn't let anyone in. I was passive with my emotions, if I ever showed any. I locked them, as many as I could, away. There wasn't a person who could unlock that gate into my heart and mind.
But then came along Jack.
That ignorant fool, that fell literally into my arms, made me feel-ugh! His looks, were nothing to behold. Ruby red eyes that glistened with adoration and devotion, such lovely eyes should not be on an idiot. Skin as white as snow yet so warm to the touch. His hair being the colour of blood, he was strange to look at but so beautiful too. His brilliant mind...squandered by his own lack of common sense and that witch. That witch who found him before I did. I should have taught him first, loyalty being the first thing I trained into his brilliant mind. She makes him stupid, not just his common sense or lack thereof.
See how I changed completely? Notice how jealous I am? Notice how I went from ignorant fool to his beauty? There is something about Jack... I will never admit that out loud. I will admit that to no one.
Oh, yes. I call him Jack. When I'm by myself, of course. I want him as mine, there is just something about him that I want. I don't want to want it, but I do.
Something of the strange simplicity that is Jack Spicer. Something of the Evil Boy Genius.
I am the Prince of Darkness, I do not 'pine' over any one, I am the Heylin Warlord. I am the most powerful Heylin ever to rule, Bean does not concern me. However, he does when Jack is concerned. The amount of times that disgusting legume has laid his roots on Jack's shoulders... it sickens me.
Jack is mine.
Jack does not belong with Bean.
I often think that Bean knows about me, but it isn't possible I remember, I lock my pesky emotions away.
I often think about it anyway, thinking and pacing in my study. Paranoid.
How would he know?
What would he do with that information?
What would happen to Jack?
But I would always come to the same conclusion. Bean could not possibly know for he would have done something by now. Jack would not allow Bean to force him to kill me, that I do know.
Have I told you how much I adore Jack's smile? The crooked half-smile that shows his brilliantly white teeth. His lips are soft, I'm sure.
Damn it, damn it to hell.
I need to stop thinking about the boy. He is nothing but a pest, an insect. I do hate insects.
Here I am, sat in my throne, getting a headache over a boy. I hear my door open, my cats are growling and hissing at the visitor.
I wait for the visitor to find me, I listen for any dead giveaways. I'm sure I know who it is.
No. I know who it is.
I close my eyes, rubbing my temples, trying to sooth the dull ache in my head. The visitor knocks and I usher them in with a low tone.
I still felt like a gate. There wasn't a person who could unlock that gate into my heart and mind.
But then came along Jack.
"Hi, Chase..." Came the squeak, obviously hesitating because of my tone. He is so pleasant and delightful.
This boy will be the death of me one day.
Strangely, I find myself not bothered by that.
Okay, so a short one for a change. Something that I got in my co-curriculum class. Something in Chase's POV. I don't know if it's good enough... it's just something XD
I hope you guys enjoy it.
