Why am I feeling so different when I'm around Caleb? I mean, after he told me everything and since we get to be so close, I always feel awkward. I have to admit, I do think that Caleb is very good looking. Not only that, he's also a very nice guy. Even though I'm always a jerk and being bitchy to him, he is still nice to me. Well of course he is. He's an angel, a guy who follows all the rules given to him. I stayed at the back porch and sat down on the swinging chair. I swing back and forth as I think about my dilemma. Caius, the gorgeous guy I'm dying to have as my boyfriend confessed that he likes me. But the problem is, I don't think he is the right guy for me and that it's all of a sudden. And there's Caleb, who I think I'm starting to like in a different level. The problem with him is, he's an angel and he'll never like me back because that's just against the rule of angels.

As I think about my problem while watching a plane fly across the sky, the back door opened. It was James who went out as if he's about to do something here. Unfortunately, he looks startled to see me and quite irritated too.

"Why are you here?" he said it as if it was a bad thing for me to be in here.

I cringed and fold my arms in annoyance, "Why, don't I have the right to stay here? The last time I checked, anyone can stay here" I argued.

James just rolled his eyes and sat beside me. He pulled out a box of cigar from his pocket and takes out one stick and lit it up.

"Since when did you smoke?" I asked ferociously.

So this is why he doesn't seem happy to see me here. His parents will kill him if they found out.

James drew out the smoke and smirked, "Shut up"

The smoke reached towards me and I coughed and shooed off the smoke that might cause to my unexpected death. Seriously, I don't like people who smoke. Neither of my parents smoke and grandpa, well, he just stopped smoking recently. He said that drinking is more than enough as a vice.

James stretched his arms over the chair and looked at me, "So, what's with your troubled look? Anything happened?"

I pinched my nose and peered at him, "I'm pretty sure you won't be of any help so just better stick on sucking that thing"

"Tsk, sorry if I even bothered asking" he said mockingly.

But it's true; James won't be of any help. He won't ever take it seriously. I know his attitude and he'll only think of it as a joke.

"James!"

We could hear his dad calling.

"Shoot, I didn't know they'll be back so soon" James muttered as he throws the cigar on the ground and covers it with sand.

Then he faced me with a threatening look, "Don't say a word about this"

I made a face and just folded my arms.

Uncle jeep appeared from around the house carrying a few plastic bags from Nevada. He approached us on the porch and he stands in front of his son suspiciously.

"Why weren't you answering?" Uncle James asked.

From where I'm sitting, I can see that James is quite nervous though his back is facing me.

"Well, I was just talking here with Abbey" he lied.

"Well, you better go in front and help your mom with some stuff"

"Sure"

Uncle jeep watched his son leave and as soon as he's out of sight, he puts the bags down on the small coffee table and sat down on the brown rocking chair.

"That boy better stop smoking" he said with a grin.

I unfolded my arms, leaned forward, then looked curious, "You knew?"

"Anyone would know just by the smell. I didn't want to confront him because I want him to personally tell me or simply to stop it. It won't do him any good"

I leaned back and sighed, "But he's very hard headed, he'll do anything he wants anytime, anywhere"

"Yeah, I guess you're right. Anyways, how's it going when we're gone?"

"Hmm, the usual" except that I found out that this place is occupied by angels.

Uncle jeep placed his elbows on his lap and looked at me observantly, "You seem distracted. Do you want to talk about it?"

Like my parents, Uncle Jeep is very trustworthy. I'm pretty close to him and I can say that my relationship with him is like the one he has with mom. He's like an older brother I can depend on.

I sighed and looked down. I'm quite embarrassed about my problem. Because you know, as a teenager, I don't want to open this kind of stuff to the older ones. I'm more confident telling it to a friend. Unfortunately, Jamie isn't around.

"Well, it's about a guy" I finally said, my cheeks turning red.

"Wait, is it that Caleb guy, that lodger from your school?" he asked with a smile.

I nodded nervously and looked at him. I am looking for any signs of fooling around or anything but, Uncle Jeep seems to be taking my problem seriously.

"So, what's the problem with him? Did he hurt you because you know, I can kick his ass if you want" he said as he punches his fist on his palm.

I giggled. He can be funny at times.

"It's not that, it's just that I think I've grown feelings for him"

"And-"

"And I think that he won't like me back" I confessed.

Uncle Jeep made a disapproving look, "That's impossible. I mean, you're beautiful. I'm pretty sure he'll like you back if you tell him the truth"

"But he's much grounded. He likes things to be in order and he follows the rules. He priorities his duties, I mean his studies first. I'm not saying that it's a bad thing but, he won't even try to take the risk"

"Don't worry; I'm pretty sure he'll come to his senses. And if he doesn't, that means that he's not the perfect guy for you"

After my one on one talk with Uncle Jeep, I went back to my room. I stood in front of my shelf for awhile and picked out a romantic novel. Jamie gave it to me a year ago but, I haven't really opened it. I lazily fell back on my bed, kicked off my flats, put on my headphones and turned my iPod on full volume, and started to read. I really don't like romantic novels because I think of it as stupid. That's what I used to think before. One reason is because I haven't felt it. I mean, I don't understand why a girl would cry over a guy who doesn't love him. But now, I'm trying to fill in their shoes and to see how it is to be in love or whatever. I read the first chapter, the getting to know you part. I think it's actually nice, not the boring kind. I kept on reading the book until I didn't notice that I'm already in the second chapter. My eyes are getting strained already and I yawned. I looked at my clock and saw that it's only twelve noon. I guess I would be skipping lunch today because I'm pretty sleepy. I put the book aside and fell asleep while listening to some Pretty Reckless song.

I am half awake when I felt someone lying on the same bed. I tried to open my eyes but I can't. I can't move my body either. I could see nothing and only hear the song from my headphones. The person in the room moved closer towards me, caressing my cheeks. He caressed me more up to my arms. Who could it be, Caleb? Caius? Or am I just dreaming? All of a sudden, the figure is already holding my boobs! I mean literally feeling me up. I tried to budge but, I'm stuck on the bed and I can't even open my eyes. But the touch is very gentle and I cannot say that I'm not feeling good about it. I've never felt this tingling sensation before. Later on, the touch went down to my stomach. This is just a dream, I know it. My mind is just playing with me because of the novel I've read.

I suddenly woke up as soon as soon as I can feel my body. I was shocked to see my pants slightly pulled down and my bolero on the floor. I quickly puts on my clothes and couldn't believe it. Was I just harassed in my own room? Oh God! But who would even do this to me? I mean, my door is locked and the only one who can come in is-.

I left my room and ran upstairs to Caleb's room and knocked. I waited impatiently but, there was no answer.

"Caleb, open up!" I said as I knocked some more.

"Abbey?"

I turned around and saw Caleb coming up from the stairs. He must've just finished having lunch and he seems to look confused when he saw me.

"What's wrong? You look nervous" he pointed out.

Of course I am, someone just toyed with me while I was sleeping!

"Did you go to my room today?" I asked quickly.

Caleb shook his head, "I haven't, why? Did something happen?"

"Uhm no." I lied, "I'll go back to my room"

As I'm about to go down, Caleb grabbed my arm like he used to do before. But his touch, it's so much different from what I felt in my room.

"Are you okay?" he asked once more.

I just nodded, "Yeah, I'm just too sleepy I thought someone was in my room"

When I went back to my room, I lied back down and stared on the white ceiling. It couldn't be Caleb. I mean, it would be a sin if he does it. But, who else could it be? Caius? Unfortunately, that incident happened more than once. Every time I would sleep, I could feel someone touching me again and again. By the time I wake up, I'm half naked. I couldn't tell anyone about it because they might tell me that I'm just making it up. And Caleb, I thought he is my guardian angel? How come he doesn't know that something is already happening to me? Sometimes I wonder if he's just lying to me.
