Chapter 4 Chapter 4

The ride to the Salvatore's mansion was a quiet one. Paul was too eager to see Aurora that he couldn't be bothered to engage in any other thing. He practically forgot somebody was sitting next to him at the back of the mercedes benz.

Arianna was also in her thoughts, all those touch had thrown her off balance her head was getting filled with strange ideas, and her entire body was on flames. Is Paul quiet cause he also felt the sparks, she wondered in her mind. If he is then does that mean he is also interested in her, she is Arianna afterall a royal blood and a beauty, Paul has no reason to not like her or rather he has every reason to be smitten by her.

"Uhm Saint".

She gets no reply, Paul's mind is over at the Salvatore's mansion wondering if they were not too late and how long Aurora would have been sitting at the porch for, and her getting angry with her cute blue eyes and her hair that's always dyed in several colours, he wondered what color her hair is on now. He loves it when she colors her hair white with her blue eyes they make her look like an artwork that was framed out of the sky.

"Paul Saint". Arianna nudges him deeply in the side. Angry that his mind was somewhere else even he was in the car with her

"Ouch". Paul yelps

"What was that for?"

"You were trying to kill me ?"

Arianna blew out hot angry breaths she didn't even know she was keeping.

"Be thankful I didn't stab you with a dagger, I was calling severally your mind was miles away". She replied with eyes that said if looks could kill you'll be buried and forgotten.

"Well, sorry had some stuffs on my mind. What did you want to say".

"Well In case you didn't notice we're here, so if you would snap out of your thoughts then please step out of the car". She sounded even more pissed by his admittance that his mind was elsewhere, who thinks of something else when Arianna is with them.

"You could have just said that nicely what's with the bitchy attitude". Paul replies seeing no reason for all the drama that was going on.

"Did you really just say I was giving a bitchy attitude, well then you ain't see nothing yet and trust me you don't want to".

"Imagine those words coming from a girl, royalty my foot".

The bickering continues and Aurora is surprised by the sight that comes face to face with her immediately hey friends got off yet car.

"Are you guys bickering so I don't kick your asses or what, are you kidding me right now".

Paul at this time had finally opened his eyes enough to see the person before him and his blown away by the sight.

Aurora is in black baggy jean and black oversized top but she still looked smoky hot in Paul's eyes. She had colored her long wavy hair blue and the color of the blue matched her eyes, it looked like the sky of a very beautiful country, she let the hair fall qll over her shoulders and Paul thought his preference changed from ponytails to this sight in front of him.

"What Saint cat got your tongue, the floor is wet with your saliva". Aurora chided him and laughed. He looked to her like a kid that saw his favorite candy.

" This is exactly what he did it the car, suddenly spacing out for minutes had me shouting my lungs out to bring him back to earth". Arianna said with an angry look.

"Eh no lies Ari, you stabbed me in the stomach and almost sent me to my grave". Paul said finally coming to his senses.

"Nice hair color by the way I like the way they match your eyes somehow". Paul complimented.

If there was any beauty that threatened Arianna's royal beauty it's Aurora. The girl had an out of the world face, almost undescribable, with everything looking In perfect shape. Her nose was small and pointed, with her jaws so shard they could cut paper she had the best shaped lips anyone could ever see it looked like an heart, and looked so very small with a pale color that made one want to suck it back to life , her blue eyes the definition of 'blue is the hottest fire' they burned whenever she laughed or glared at anybody, then her body so rightly shaped they'd make a monk sin. Aurora looked like,the masterpiece of an artwork that was very careful made with no error.

Well the outer look had no error but the inside had one.

"Are you guys kidding me right now, you both got here late and left me sitting on the porch waiting for you, my legs have gone numb in the process only for you to get here bickering over what....".

"Aurora, calm down uhn we were just kidding". Arianna replied with a nervous laughter their best friend had obviously been waiting for a while.

"If you were me would you be calm right now ". She snapped back

Aurora had a bad tempter and one of the things she hated the most in the world is to be kept waiting okay heads are about to roll ain't they

"I brought you chocolate, diary chocolates". Paul said, with his voice a little bit raised so she could hear him above her anger.

If anything could melt Aurora's anger it was chocolate. She literally becomes a baby at the sight of it.

"Really". She replied with puppy eyes, forgetting that she'd been so angry just a minute ago.

"Yeah". Paul said relieved that he had not forgotten to bring the chocolate.

"Well then hurry and bring them out, neither chocolate nor the person it was got for should be kept waiting. They are like soulmates, they need to meet.

"It's in the car with other gifts my mom sent aunty the driver would bring them inside... ". Paul started to say until he saw the reaction in those eyes.

"On second thoughts why don't I go get them ". He starts to walk over to the car.

"Can anybody see me". Arianna shouted softly deciding she'd been ignored enough.

"Let's go inside, that was the best way to end the spat you guys were trying to start". Aurora replied.

"Well, I wasn't trying to start anything".

"Nice outfit I'll bet my fangs, Paul picked them ".

"Yeah, I couldn't possibly dress like this with my aunt in the state ".

"But you can when Paul picked it?"

"My aunt dotes on you both, she'll let it pass for your sakes".

"Did he style your hair too ?"

"Yeah, does it look bad I kept saying he couldn't possibly be better than me at packing a ponytail".

"Well I've seen you pack before so if my words could be taken as credible then you need to ask Paul to start taking you lessons".

"Damn , that good".

"Yeah, that good. I wondered why you looked like another Aurora just arrived when I saw you".

"I guess Paul likes your style of dressing better". Those words tasted so bitter in Arianna's mouth she literally spat them out.

"Well what can I say , gracias". Aurora replied with a smug look plastered on her face.

"Wipe that look off, you look like you ate a child".

"Whatever, seems Paul is taking some time with that chocolate let's go say hi to mom first".

"Yeah sure".

"How could you both decide to do that". Paul shouted from behind with an horrified look

"Do what?".

"Don't be giving me the clueless innocent look, you both girls know exactly what you just decided to do". Paul said standing his ground.

"I'm beginning to think quite strongly that it is we three girls, how could you be an even bigger drama queen than Haley". Aurora replied rolling her eyes.

"I wasn't being no drama queen, you girls were being slys and wrong if you both to sly me this way".

"Paul we didn't eat your bride up what's with the attitudes, you really should consider acting".

"Whatever we're going to see aunt together or nobody sees her".

"Eh, damn was I too quick to forgive you earlier and you're now looking down on me. I would kick your ass out of here with all confidence and pride you know". Aurora said giving him that look that said you know I am not joking.

"Fine, fine, I'll let it pass this time let's go see aunty uhn". Paul replies obviously scared that he'd find his guts in the gutters.
