Chapter 7 07 : Be Friend

Karen POV:

"I'm just accepting reality" I said shrugging and looking around, Jane really sucks with her stubbornness. But I swear she going to like who Zayn Malik is just by seeing a picture of him once on the internet.

My eyes collided in one direction, my heart suddenly pounded, mouth gaped and wide eyes staring at him, I thought my glasses would shatter because of the radiance of his charm, he was really charming and really stood out among the students passing by with most of the eyes on him, he really was the center of everyone's attention now.

I wanna know, know, know, know

What is love?

With daydreams and songs suddenly coming to mind that make me smile like a fool, people in love are really stupid. One fact, I have never been in a relationship with anyone and this is the first time. My eyes widened when I saw him actually walking in here with his blonde hair slicked back, Ughh... He overwhelmed me.

"Oh my God! Jane... Jane... Jane...!" I covered Jane's shoulders in slight shock and excitement but Jane kept ignoring whether she really didn't want to help me now.

"He..."

I froze when I realized that Leon was already in front of me with his smile.

"I know you can be matched with that Zayn malik of yours"

I looked at Jane, she actually said that in front of my first love! Jane, you need to get up, man!

"Jane...Jane..Jane...."

I put his shoulder a little irritated.

"What's that--"

Jane looked just as surprised as before. Leon he looked confused looking at us but still trying to maintain his smile, I bit my lower lip when I saw Leon staring intently at Jane with Jane who looked blushed and doubtful at the same time. I coughed a few times, at least to let them know I was here.

Jane looked, there was guilt in her eyes. But I shook my head, as if to say I was fine for that. Everyone will love Leon, not just me, so....

"I guess I should leave you two now." I walked away, Jane tried to hug me but I ignored her.

Jane POV:

I think Karen is jealous, I'm sure about that. I just smiled because I felt satisfied mocking him later, I giggled happily and Leon, he looked even more confused but still looked charming with that smile.

"Did I just disturb you guys?" he asked and that's when I realized I just saw him.

"N-no, I just, I mean Karen, she'll be fine." I'm telling the truth, I don't know what I just said. He just nodded a few times then looked ahead, meaning behind me.

Leon smiled "Your friend looks amazing behind that wall." he says.

I was stunned and lost my body, I could see Karen who was peeking from behind the wall near the stairs, "Hahaha.... She seems jealous." I said reflexively while laughing broadly that I couldn't hold back, there was a tingle in my stomach. Karen was still there but when she came to her senses she immediately ran from her place to our class which was above.

"Jealous?" he asked.

"No, no, sorry..." I said still holding my stomach with one hand, Leon just nodded in response. I thought, why are there people who are as formal and stiff as this, maybe not just Leon because of course his two brothers would be like that too, but that's what makes them look special and different from teenagers in general.

I couldn't help but set my sights on those beautiful eyes which were now light brown in color which looked much warmer now.

"I just wanted to say thank you for what you did for me and my brothers yesterday," he said.

"You don't need to thank me, it's fine." I said as I tucked my hair back but then I felt the back of a cold palm touch my cheek.

He helped me pull back the strands of hair that were on my face. I was taken aback by his action and my eyes widened a bit but I really loved the feeling I got when his hand touched my skin.

"You look beautiful with your long black hair." he immediately made my cheeks feel hot and his compliments made me a little embarrassed.

"Do you want to ask me something? Just ask." he said and i was kinda taken aback by the question, as if he knew that i had a lot of questions for him, like....

Where are you from?

What's your old school name?

What's your relationship with mr.Charlie?

What talk did you guys have in the forest yesterday with mr. Charlie.

And why do your eyes seem to change all the time?

The list of questions goes on and on, not to mention the video I recorded yesterday. However, how could I ask him that, Leon and his two brothers probably felt bad and called me a stalker. And I don't want to because I like his brother, Jasper.

Better not ask that question now.

I shook my head.

"Not really." I said and he looked surprised. It seemed he was expecting me to ask him a question.

"Are you sure about that? You have no questions? Nothing at all?" he asked in a row and I don't know why I started to get offended.

I swallowed my saliva "No, not at all. Do I have a question?" I asked back.

He paused, "Not really."

"Good then... So why are you asking me that?" I asked and just then the doorbell rang.

Triiinggghhhh......

Without answering, Leon turned and started to walk away.

"Hey Leon?" my calls are confused, he is doing strange things without saying goodbye, he hasn't even answered my questions that i asked before.

"Yes." he turned to face me.

"You have not answer my question." I said.

"Is that a must?" he asked me with a faint smirk, if he had been seeking revenge recently.

"N-not really" I hide my head and he starts to leave again.

"Leon..." I called.

I stopped and turned to face me again.

"Are we friends now?" I asked him with a hopeful look at him, hoping he also wanted the same thing without having to ask me.

Leon challenged before answering.

"Yeah, sure. We're friends now."

"Really! I mean thank you, thank you..." I said with my head down and he just smiled briefly before turning and walking away.

Leon POV:

As I left Jane to walk to class, a frown formed on my face.

She is lying.

Jane must be hiding something, but what? She didn't even realize we knew his position yesterday. I wish she asked that right away, something about what she seen or heard in the woods, but she didn't say anything. She pretended as if she didn't know anything.

It makes me think if she has to know something, something she shouldn't know, maybe she also knows who we really are? I wonder if maybe Jane is a werewolf too, if so she's risking our safety.

I have to tell Jasper as well as Chris what I suspect right away.... But if I do, Jane will die for sure, I know what Chris will say.

' Let's kill her! She must die!'

And Jasper would also have agreed to kill her if he had known that Jane was suspicious of what happened in the woods yesterday. And inevitably, I had to agree too because killing Jane and the Math teacher was the only way to make sure our secret was kept safe.

I entered the classroom and walked towards my seat which was at the back, but my steps stopped when I saw someone already sitting in my chair with their arms around Jasper's arms who looked both uncomfortable and resigned.

I shook my head and looked for another empty seat before finally hearing Jasper's voice calling my name.

"Leon! Leon... I tried to defend your seat but--" I cut him off.

"I'll find another empty seat, have fun." I said and smiled, I could tell he wasn't having fun at all.

Jasper must have tried his best not to eat it and sucked its blood dry.

I looked around for an empty bench, and saw one in the corner on the other side, to be precise, in the middle of the bench next to a girl with glasses for whom I asked her school office address yesterday, she didn't even answer me and just stared at me with wide eyes. The girl whose name I remember is Karen. The girl stopped her writing program and wide-eyed looked at me sitting beside her with the same cute look as yesterday, she took off her glasses and smoothed her curly bangs then put her glasses back on with a big smile at me showing her two bunny teeth, she's quite adorable. She kept glancing at me and I turned and faced her, and smiled kindly at him. The girl widened her eyes as if she didn't expect me to give her a smile.

Jane entered the classroom and looked behind Jasper's place, there was a hint of jealousy in her that was obvious as she stamped her foot several times on the floor when she looked back.

"Does Jane like Jasper?"

Jane stopped in her tracks when she saw Karen who was coding her something I didn't understand myself. Jane she looked annoyed with her mean face that looked even more sullen but Karen didn't care and kept looking at me with a big smile, Jane chose to sit on a bench that was back there, to be precise next to a black haired woman with a sexy apple body.

Jane likes Jasper? Is that true? It astonished me because this teenage girl named Jane had occupied all of my attention since the beginning of our school here. But if she liked Jasper then... Yeah, then that would really suck.

A few hours later:

After school hours....
