Vampire Bride

Chapter 3

Second saying, So far so good.

White with brown layer. That's what I think.
After chemistry, I have art class. Bonus for academic grades. Sweet.
Lyric and I have to separate. He said that he had lost his timetable and went to get extra from the school council. I just shrugged and shook his hand. I didn't know why but I know that both of us didn't want to let go of each other hand. And again, our eyes met. His hand let go of mine and slowly touched my cheek again. His thumb once again rubbed my cheek. I feel like I want to follow him or the other way. I grab his wrist and rubbed his hand slowly. We enjoyed the atmosphere until a loud ring interrupted us. We glared at the school bell as the other student went to their respective classes. (…awkward. Repeating the same word).

We both just sighed and smile at each other.
"See you around?" he asked.
"Sure." I blushed as he hold my hand and give it a small kiss. He raised his head up and I KNOW I saw a small tint pink on his cheeks. I waved him goodbye as he go. Standing there thinking about his smile make me realize something. I like him. I really, really like him. That hit me like a brick. My blush went a higher degree. OH MY GOD! I quickly clap my cheeks and shook my head. I looked at the clock. Double OMG!

I'm late for my second class. I quickly ran for the class and just as my hand about to reach the door knob, I hit someone and both of us collapse on each other. I didn't know but I think the person switched our position so I'm the one land on his chest. I don't know why but suddenly my nose was hit with something sweet. No, not sweet. But … chocolate. It smells like bittersweet chocolate that I loved. Cocoa is a strong thing for me. I just can't help but sniff a little more. The person laughed at that and I quickly blushed and raise my body. There, underneath me, smiling at me. I just sit there and quickly get off of him, letting him sit up. I noticed that he was laughing so much. I pouted at him and hit him with my book. He just laughed out loud while preventing my attacks. I can't help but laugh as well.

Suddenly, we heard a second cough of the day and looked up to see the teacher angrily tapping her foot. We quickly stand up and bow down, apologizing to the teacher. It was art class and I went to my seat, near the only big open window in the room. The way the light shone next to him, gives me a happy feelings.

Just like last time, Lyric introduced himself to the class, the girls swooned and he sat himself next to me. I feel myself smile at him as we started our class. The teacher asked us to draw something or someone we like. I look at the canvas in front of me and without thinking, I draw. My hand moved itself as it began to sketch something on the canvas. That's what I like about art class. I draw without minding the world outside. I kept drawing until I felt someone shook my shoulder. I looked around and saw the teacher looking at my drawing and then she nodded.

"I see you choose to draw what you see more than what you think. Good thing. You're drawing Lyric, right?" I quickly turn and look at my drawing. There my hand freeze just as my hand finished drawing his eyes. His warm-looking eyes. I quickly blushed and try to hide my face in my jacket. The teacher saw this, just smiled at me.

"Don't worry, Marc. Lyric did the same thing. Lyric, show it to him." The teacher nodded at Lyric. I saw him tensed and his face was red. I couldn't help but thought that it was kinda cute. He looked at the teacher before looking at me. He quickly sighed and slowly showed us his drawing. My heart beats faster. There was me. It was when we were in chemistry class. I was smiling, my head was tilted aside and my hand was writing notes while talking with him. I switched my eyes from the sketch to him. He was deep red, making you think that he was sick. I couldn't help but smiled at him and say thanks. He just tensed and nodded again to me. The teacher smiled at the gesture and continued monitoring the class. We quickly averted our gaze and continued sketching. Before I realize it, I was drawing him with a smile and a red blush on my face.

It was recess. I looked at the drawing I did.
The drawing I did was different. I didn't do it because what I see. It's more like what I dreamt. Only there, standing on a log while the wind blows toward him, making him looked like his flying. Lyric was looking at him and holding out a hand to him, in the drawing. I can't help but blushed and tried to hide the drawing.

Suddenly, a hand quickly grabbed my drawing and moved away so quickly, you thought that it was just the wind. Except only spies knows that only a spy could steal from a spy. I glared at the other red head in our family as Lee, Megan and Tony look at my drawing. Without a thought, I quickly pulled the paper from Lee's grasp and stuff it in my bag. The three of them were speechless.

"Wow, Marc! Nice drawing! But I didn't know you were into him." Said Megan.
"I am NOT! I just draw what I saw or needed." I huffed at them. But I think it didn't work because I felt the blush on my cheeks intensified and they just grin widely. I quickly shrugged them off and when to the school shop. ( I have one at my school.) 'Maybe I could buy some bread and milk for lunch.

As I walked to the shop, I took out the drawing and looked at it. I didn't know I could draw him this good. Even his eyes looked piercing yet lovingly at me. I didn't realize where I was going until my body was hit. Meaning I just hit someone for the second time. I groaned at my luck. I looked up and saw him. Him! Of all the students in the school, why him? I can't help blushed as he stand up and offer his hand. I took his hand and stand as well.

Our hands didn't let go.

Just that fact can make me want to die. He smiled and kissed my hand. He looked into my eyes, so passionate until I was lost in the flow. He pulled my hand and as though he had just read my mind, we head to the school shop. He let go of my hand to buy some bread and milk. Chocolate milks. No, really. Was he a mind reader? He gave me the stuff he bought and pulled my hand again. We went to the school roof. The door to the school's roof were always locked until some bad students broke the locks. We quickly got out and warm wind hit our face as we sit somewhere comfortable. He passed me a bread and milk as he ate his own. We ate silently and enjoy the view. A few minutes later, we both finished eating and drink our milks. I looked at him as he sat there, next to me, relaxing like there's nothing in the word could stop him from enjoying his life. I smiled then rest next to him. He looked so carefree.

Suddenly, I felt a hand on my right shoulder and pulling me closer to him. He was smiling at me. My head rested on his shoulder and he slowly rubs my hair. Without knowing, I leaned into his touch. He suddenly laughed and I looked at him weirdly.

He smiled while repeating rubbing my hair.
"You were purring, Marc." He said. I blushed and try to hit him softly. Being a spy, you could knock down three men in a second.
"I AM NOT!" He continued laughing while avoiding my attacks. I quickly try to hit his stomach, but he quickly pulled my arm and our body suddenly collided with each other. We fell down, me landing on him and him landing on the floor… Ouch.

I looked up and see both our face, so close, one move than maybe…
He looked into my eyes and his lips almost touched mine. Just one move. I said in my mind. I just couldn't help myself. Without knowing what happened next, we just kiss.

One sweet, chocolaty kiss.

It was just lips. His on mine. We couldn't let go. I just want to stay there forever.
For a long time, we parted our lips. We looked into each other eyes. His hand was rubbing my hair again and my head was on his chest. We embraced each other before the time run out. It felt like we've done this. I felt his lips again on my lips and a whisper that sounded I like you.

My mouth moved by itself own. I like you too.
