Me: Okay, thanks to the people that reviewed. I don't own My candy love or Secrets by One Republic. Just Lexus and Auntie Mo. Happy reading! and yes I have turned this into a CastielxCandyxNathaniel, but it will be leaning towards CastielxCandy
Castiel rode his motorcycle down the road. He smirked as his bike roared as it flew down the pavement. He liked the feel of the wind in his red hair under his helmet. He skidded to a stop when he almost passed Lexus' apartment complex. He could see her form in the window behind the curtains as she moved around inside. He wanted to go talk to her, but she made it clear earlier that she didn't want to talk.
"Ah screw it." He muttered, turning off his bike and kicking the kickstand out. Castiel pulled off his helmet off and walked up the stairs and knocked on the door.
I had turned on the radio as I cooked a meal for myself. Secrets by One Republic started to play and I smirked. Was the world trying to tell me something? I chuckled at that. Probably just a random coincidence.
"I need another story,
Something to get off my chest.
My life get kind of boring.
Need something that I can confess.
Till all my sleeves are stained red, from all the truth I've said.
Come by it honestly I swear,
Thought you saw me wink, no, I've been on the brink so,
Tell me what you want to hear.
Something that will light those ears.
Sick of all the insincere.
So I'm going to give all my secrets away.
This time, don't need another perfect lie.
Don't care if the critics jump in line.
I'm going to give all my secrets away."
I thought about what happened this morning. I was completely honest with Nathaniel and it was one of the first times that's ever happened to me. I guess I decided that I wanted to trust my secrets with him, but then I thought that what if I told someone else about my past? Someone like Castiel? Would he be kind like Nathaniel and comfort me? Probably not.
"Oh got no reason, got no shame.
Got no family I can blame.
Just don't let me disappear.
I'ma tell you everything.
So tell me what you want to hear.
Something that will light those ears.
Sick of all the insincere.
So I'm going to give all my secrets away."
My thoughts were interrupted when there was a knock on my door. I strained the pasta I made and answered my door to find Castiel standing on the other side.
"Castiel, what are you doing here?" He shrugged.
"I was riding passed and I wanted to bug you." I gave him a look.
"Thanks for the concern but I want to be left alone." I tried to close the door on him but he stopped me by placing his hand on the wood and pushing back. He was a lot stronger than me so he opened the door again.
"You still didn't answer my question from this morning. Since when were you and Mr President were on good terms?" I crinkled my nose.
"I don't want to talk about it." I said firmly.
"What are you hiding?"
"None of your business, now go away Castiel or I'll call the cops." I hissed and he looked surprised by my boldness but that look of surprise vanished as soon as it came. He leaned closer so our noses were so close to touching.
"I know you and I know that wouldn't do that."
"You know nothing about me." I hissed. I stepped back into my place and slammed the door in his face. I didn't care if he got his face slapped by my door. I just didn't want to see his face, especially if he's going to be a smartass. I stomped away from the door and peered out my window to see him shrug and walk away from my door. I stepped away from my window and sat on my floor, running my fingers though my hair. With I sigh, I stood, walking back to the kitchen and finishing up with making my supper. I sat at the kitchen island and clicked on the TV to the news to see they were talking about the house invasions that had been happening around town.
"I should get into the habit of locking my door at night." I muttered to myself. I finished my food, locked my door than started on my homework when my phone rang. I snatched it off the stand and held it to my ear with my shoulder.
"Hello?"
"Hi Lexus!" Iris' voice sounded from the other end.
"Hey Iris, what's up?"
"Well, you never told me why you were so crabby today." I slapped myself in the forehead.
"Oh right, sorry, I completely forgot. Well, I had a very rude awakening this morning."
"What do you mean by that?" I sighed.
"You promise to keep this a secret between us girls?"
"I promise, Lexus. You can trust me." I smiled and told her about my dream and my run in with Nathaniel.
"Wow. So that's why you kept shooting glances at him during class?"
"Yep, you and him are the only ones that know about my past and please for the love of god, don't tell anyone."
"I wouldn't, don't worry, and Nathaniel's very trustworthy. He'll keep it safe."
"Thanks Iris."
"Well, see you tomorrow, Lexus."
"Bye Iris." Then I hung up and went back to my homework. My mind wandering aimlessly.
Castiel was sitting on the couch at his house with Demon on the ground next to his leg. He couldn't stop thinking about how Lexus was so cold towards him earlier. He sighed as he blew a strand of hair out of his face. A news report flashed on the screen and the newscaster started to talk about the home invasions that had been occurring around town. Castiel hummed to himself.
"I don't have to worry about that." He muttered as he clicked the TV off. Demon stood up and Castiel scratched him behind the ears.
"Come on you big brute. Lets get you some food."
For the second time in a day, my phone rung. I snatched it off the stand and held it to my ear.
"Hello?"
"Hi sweetie!" The high pitched of my Auntie Mo come from the other end.
"Hi Auntie Mo, what's up."
"Well I hope you heard about the home invasions that have been happening."
"Yea, I did." When you're in a small town like Sweet Amoris, news and rumors travel fast.
"Well I hope that you're taking precautions." I thought I heard a twinge of uneasiness in my Auntie's voice.
"I am, don't worry. I just hope that you do also."
"Thanks for your concern, honey, and don't fret, I am." I smiled at my Auntie, though it did bother me that she had a twinge of uneasiness in her voice, like she knew who it was, but I pushed that thought aside.
"Okay, Goodnight, Kiddo."
"Night Auntie Mo." Then I hung up. I packed my bag for school and changed into my pajamas. I sat on my bed and drew in my sketchbook. Believe it or not, I found myself drawing Castiel. It was him sitting in the music room, on the stage, with a guitar standing on its head with his hand around the neck of the guitar. He was looked at the artist with a light smile on his face and a five o'clock shadow on the picture. I held it at arm's length and murmured a 'Wow' in awe. I didn't think that Sweet Amoris High's badass would be the first thing that I would draw and yet here it was. I shrugged and sighed it.
'I have to show this to Iris tomorrow.' I thought to myself as I put my sketch book aside, set my alarm, turned off my light and fell asleep.
