I had this chapter ready to post. So I'll just post it today ;D

By the time it was May, Caesar was fully devoted to Aphrodite. He always spent time with her whenever he could.

Even if he spent weekends not seeing her, he never thought badly of her. Whenever she did something wrong, he was quick to forgive her.

Even his father tried to reason with him but nothing worked. He was so far gone already.

Brutus had a bad feeling as the two boys walked to school. He knows that Caesar hadn't been on many dates with Aphrodite lately and that she hadn't been texting him obsessively like before. The white-haired boy always said "she's most probably busy with homework".

Busy my ass, even her texts sounded unmotivated!

"Caesar.. Did you take your medications today?"

"I don't need it Brutus. I'm fine." He smiled at his friend trying to assure he was alright.

"You should have just in case."

"Why?"

"I have a bad feeling about today.."

"Hmm? Well I'm sure it will be fine Brutus. Don't worry about it."

The green-haired boy stopped and watched as his friend kept walking.

"What's this feeling... I can feel something ominous.."

"Brutus?" Caesar turned back to check if his friend was still there.

"Ah Caesar! Wait up!"

As the two walked to school, Caesar appeared happy and content.

"Why is he so happy..he hasn't seen her in days..does he really trust her that much?.."

The white-haired boy looked around in search of Aphrodite. He placed a hand on his chin.

"I wonder where she could be."

Brutus' face kept growing with worry. She wasn't in school either. Odd because, she wanted to spend time with her beloved. Well according to her anyways.

"Everything will surely be alright Brutus." The two walked into class, unaware of the future event that would take place that very day.

Lunch Time

Caesar was looking for Aphrodite once again.

Brutus was following close behind, hoping his gut feeling was wrong.

The taller teen stopped suddenly, causing Brutus to crash into his back.

"Oww Caesar! Tell me when you're going to stop walking next ti-"

He looked at his best friend's face that was filled with bewilderment, and then he looked to see what the other was looking at.

There was Aphrodite, walking and giggling with another guy. He was a senior in the school, a tall and strong boy, someone you usually wouldn't want to mess with.

Caesar's heart sank to his stomach, slowly feeling a burning sensation develop in his chest.

"What do you think you're doing with my girlfriend!" The boy got in between the two.

"What's your problem kiddo? Can't a guy talk to a girl in peace?"

"I told you she's my girlfriend! There's no need for you to go and flirt with her."

"Possessive are we?"

Aphrodite backed away a bit looking down.

"Please don't fi-"

"This guy tried to get with you and you didn't stop him. So I'm going to do the job for you."

"Are you picking a fight you little punk? I can kick your ass in a heartbeat."

"That's right. I won't let you touch her with your filthy hands, you scum..."

Brutus' eyes widened, "oh no...it's because he didn't take his medicine that, he's taken on his other self..the masked man."

The masked man was Caesar's character but also the name of his other personality. That's right he has a personality disorder. However, only his family and Brutus knew..

"Aw. The kid is jealous. I feel so sorry for you, you're actually raising your hand to fight me."

Caesar lunged out at him, throwing a punch.

The older teen stopped his hand and threw him against the lockers.

"Ngh..." The white-haired boy felt his arm start to bleed; it had hit a sharp object erecting from an open locker.

"Caesar!" Brutus screamed out.

The boy smirked a bit, getting back up. "A cut won't bother me. I'm not done with you yet!"

Caesar kept fighting him, trying to inflict damage on him but, all his attempts were futile.

"Is that all you got you scrawny kid?!" He pinned the boy against the locker again, kneeing his gut until all his air was knocked out of him.

Caesar held his stomach in pain as the taller teen released him from his grasp. He couldn't breathe or hear anything. All he saw was that condescending gaze above him, and the woman of his dreams slowly slipping away. He did not want that to happen so he resorted to his final option.

The white-haired teen pulled out a knife plated with silver, from his pocket.

"What the hell?!" The senior was not afraid but, bewildered. He didn't expect a teen like Caesar to resort to such things.

"Caesar stop it! Please!" His best friend pleaded, trying to hold back the rest of the students from interfering.

"No Brutus! I need to protect Aphrodite from him!"

Aphrodite looked away once more, deciding not to say anything.

Caesar charged at the boy again and began to prepare to stab him. The older male moved his hand right on time before the attack could be fatal. The knife flew out of the boy's hand and he let out a choking gasp.

A stream of red flew upwards and one of the boy's blue eyes was wide in horror.

The right side of his face had been slashed by the knife.

"CAESAR!" Brutus helped his friend up after he fell on his knees.

Caesar had his hand over his face, letting the crimson liquid soak it.

"I'm taking you to the hospital Caesar..." Brutus was almost crying, holding back his tears.

The white-haired teen released a cynical laughter. Unlike the other had ever heard.

"I won't lose to him! I can't let him think he can win! I'm not done yet!"

He stood back up, his uninjured eye filling with rage. He picked the knife up and aimed at the school senior. This time the boy was afraid. Afraid because of Caesar's reaction.

The green-haired boy restrained his friend.

"Let me go Brutus! LET ME GO!" The boy was struggling.

He refused to let him go. Not like that was he going to let him do anything.

"Let me kill him! He was with Aphrodite! I won't forgive him!" He sounded frantic and tears formed around his eyes as he began to calm down in his friend's grasp.

Aphrodite was at a loss of words. She really didn't know what to say at this point, and so she looked at Caesar with a worried expression.

She followed after the senior.

The blue eye grew wide once again.

He had lost to the other...

He let out a devastating cry and all Brutus could do now was take him to the hospital...

He couldn't stand seeing his friend in such pain, both physically and emotionally. Although to Caesar, the wound was the least of his problems.

A Few Days Later

After a few days of resting, Caesar was finally able to return to school. Girls would turn to look at him as he walked down the hall, some were in a daze and some tried to contain their emotions.

The boy rubbed the right side of his face, over the eyepatch he now had to wear.

"Caesar. I hope you're doing better."

"Ah I am. I even brought my medications just in case."

Brutus smiled. He was happy that his friend was himself again but, things were slowly changing.

"Caesar. I need to talk to you." Turquoise eyes met his lone blue eye.

"Aphrodite.." He looked away a bit, still upset from what he had seen.

"Please come with me." The girl grabbed his arm and dragged him away to the school's roof.

"What is there to talk about? Are you going to explain what you were doing with him?"

The boy shrugged a bit.

"Yeah..I wanted to apologize."

She looked away.

He smiled to himself a bit.

"I don't think an apology is going to cut it."

Aphrodite looked back at him,

"I love you Caesar."

His eye grew wide. She had never used that phrase before.

"How can you say that when you..."

"I was confused..but I realize that I love you! Only you!"

"D-do you mean that Aphrodite?"

He looked down a bit, feeling unconfident.

The girl held his face gently in her hands, and kissed him passionately.

Caesar slowly gave in, kissing her with the same amount of passion.

"I love you too, Aphrodite."

The girl giggled happily. "I'm glad it have you Caesar." She ran her hand over his eyepatch gently.

He gripped her hand to move it away gently, and kissed her again.

"Don't do that again."

"I won't I promise."

"Good."

The two once again got back together.

But Caesar began having his doubts...

Note: Caesar's eyepatch is actually pretty fancy. Similar to the design of the mask. XD
