The Renegade

SAVED

Zee -

Ripped jeans, white tank top and a black leather jacket. Checking the time from my Rolex watch, I realized that I already missed my first class but I didn't care anyway.

I grabbed my car keys and went straight to the door when I decided to stop in front of the mirror.

"Why do I look so perfect?"

My eyes glowed red and I tilt my head to the right "Oh right, because I'm an angel. A f*****g hot fallen angel"

I pretended to shoot myself with my hand as a gun through the vanity mirror and blow an imaginary smoke.

"I can't believe I just saw that. My eyes are burning!"

My eyes darted to my balcony and I saw Nez leaning with a disgusted face.

"How did you - "

My eyes widen in horror upon realizing what she just did.

"Did you just use your ability to climb up here?!"

She shrugs her shoulders and pops a gum in her mouth.

"Yeah, I just what you did last time and I got here in less than a minute. Why did you take so long to climb here anyway?" she innocently answers.

"That's not the point Nez! What if someone caught you?? You're always being careless you dumbass!"

"Relax Zephy! No one would see me I promise. Your neighborhood is as quiet as a library. You got to trust Nez the great one"

"Say what now?" I ask, confused with what she just said.

"I said Nez the great one!" she yells.

"I know but why the f**k are you saying Nez the great one?"

"It's my new nickname!"

“And Zephy?” I furrowed my brows at her.

“That’s your new nickname!” she says with a wide grin.

"Why would you choose that as a nickname?"

"And why wouldn't she?"

We both snapped our heads at the couch and see our lovely angel sitting gracefully with her halo glowing in gold.

"Chipmunk!!!"

I run towards her and hugged her tight.

"I missed you. Why did you disappear?"

"Sorry Zee, duty called" she says and I nod at her.

"Are you guarding someone from this neighborhood?"

"You could say that" she smiles.

"Who?" I blurted the words without thinking.

"You'll know soon" she taps my cheek lightly and I feel the warmth of her skin.

"O-okay"

"Aren't you guys late for school?"

"Technically, we are already late but if we leave now we can still get to the next class so, laters chipmunk!"

I dragged Nez out of the door while she waves Lia goodbye.

"See you later Chipmunk!"

The drive to the campus only takes 5 minutes in full speed. I chose to park at the very end beside an oak tree where people rarely go.

Before getting off the car, I wore my Aviators because wearing dark glasses is the easiest way to hide our eyes in case it glows red in an unexpected moment.

Unlike Neziah, she controls her emotions way better than me so she can easily walk around without needing to wear one. As soon as we caught the people's attention I began to hear every thought as clear as the sky.

"Oh my god she looks so hot!" (Ofcourse I am)

"Are they transferees??"

"Who are they?"

"So the tall one is mine and you can have the smaller one"

"I'm ok with the smaller one, she's cute and definitely my type"

With a smirk on my beautiful face, I draped an arm over Neziah’s shoulder and whispered -

"That girl likes you and thinks you're cute"

"Where?"

"The one wearing stripes and a mini skirt"

She glances to the girl and winks, making the girl blush like a tomato.

Oh my god did you see that? She winked at me!

I rolled my eyes and scoffed.

"We won't be in the same class at this hour so I'll see you later Casanova and please behave"

I scowled at her and she gave me a smile that screams nothing but trouble.

"Fallen angels don't behave Zephy. We're the definition of trouble. See you later!"

My jaw drops while she happily skipped on the hallways. "Why did I even tell her about studying?"

Entering the classroom, the professor eyes me from head to toe while I handed my slip over to her.

"First day of classes and you're already late. Introduce yourself please and remove your sunglasses"

Sighing, I removed my aviators while I faced the whole class with a bored expression and introduced myself.

"My name is Zee, nice to meet you everyone"

I faced the professor back "Where should I sit?"

"Is that all?" she asks

"What do you want me to tell them?"

"Hobbies? Anything about you"

"Well I don't have any hobbies and I don't want to share the story of my life so where should I sit?"

The professor stared at me with wide eyes but sighs in defeat.

"You can go take a seat wherever you like"

I turn around and stride towards the chair at the very end beside the window

What an arrogant kid but at least she's good looking.

I smirked at the professor's thoughts and passed by the students who were staring at me like I was a prey.

"She looks so fine"

"She's so hot"

"Is she gay? She's definitely gay"

The thoughts kept on coming so I had to shut them out.

I stared outside the window and the girl from the night before flashes through my memory.

Her flawless skin, her sweet strawberry scent, her feline eyes -

Oh my God those eyes.

I can still remember how sexy she was under a baggy white shirt wearing nothing but her underwear.

Suddenly, I feel heat rising from the back of my neck and I know my eyes are in danger so I had to bow my head and get my wild emotions back to normal.

Get a hold of yourself Zephania!

Damn it!

I didn't know how long I stayed that way but when I managed to calm down, I raised my head only to see my professor scowling at me.

"I don't know what school you came from but I hate it when students sleep on my class"

"But I wasn't - "

She cuts me off with a red slip and points at the door.

"Get out of my class young lady and proceed to detention"

I grabbed my bag and walked out of the boring class.

Where the f**k is detention room?

I saw a long haired girl standing in front of the lockers and approached her while showing the red slip on my hand.

"Excuse me, do you know where is the detention room?"

She turns around and the moment she saw me, her eyes sparkled in joy. She eyes me from head to toe like a lion waiting to devour her prey. She bites her lower lip and smirks as she grabs the slip from my hand.

"Troublemaker I see"

"Detention is on third floor, last room to the right" she says and I nod my head.

"I'm Krystal" she extends her hands but instead of answering her, I stole the detention slip back and walked out.

"Arrogant but hot"

Her thought was so loud I can't help but smirk and feel proud. People always find me attractive despite the arrogant attitude I show. It's not that I wanted to be attractive but the truth is, I wanted to be rude as much as possible so they won't annoy me but the result is always the opposite of what I wanted.

I don't like girls following me around or girls sticking by my side. I don't want anyone to be part of my borrowed time because I already am living a good life as a fallen angel who has all the good things.

I bought a f*****g car only to drive it slow and would sometimes book a whole restaurant then eat alone. Yeah, I'm that crazy but I don't care. As long as I don't break the rules, I'm going to live a good f*****g life.

As I enter the detention room, I gave the slip at the old nerd sitting at the teacher's desk.

"Go and find a chair troublemaker"

I scoff and walked away from the desk. My eyes narrowed at the person sitting like a boss at the corner of the room.

"Missed me already?"

"I can't believe that you'd end up in here during the first hour of our first day in school"

"Look who's talking" she says and I rolled my eyes.

"Whatever Nez. This room stinks, I'm going to get out of here"

"Cover for me?" I ask and she grins.

"Yo professor!" Neziah shouts and my heart speeds.

She's up to no good for sure.

"What do you want?" the old nerd asks.

"My friend here needs to poop so better let her out or this room will stink"

My eyes widened in horror and right there and then, I wanted to rip Neziah’s remaining wings and choke her.

"What the f**k Nez?!" I whisper yelled but the old nerd called my attention.

"New troublemaker! Go to the bathroom and get out of my room!"

My jaw drops and I scowl at Nez whose grinning from ear to ear.

I grabbed my bag and walked out while stomping my feet.

My feet dragged me to the stairs until I found the rooftop. The view of the university was amazing and it seems peaceful up here.

"Now this is what I'm looking for"

I decided to sit on the corner beside the water tanks because it was shady and cold.

I lay down using my bag as a pillow. The clouds were comforting and I suddenly missed flying through them. My head felt light and I closed my eyes. Not a minute later, I fell asleep.

Aurora -

"Get up loser"

My whole body was shaking. I was trembling when Krystal pulled my hair out of rage.

She and her squad were bullying me at the cafeteria. One of her minions tripped me and all the food from my tray went flying on top of Krystal's hair and all over her clothes.

"You clumsy b***h!" she drags me out of the cafeteria and throws me like a garbage on the floor.

I was already crying but I can't find my voice to fight back.

"Grab her!" she yells and her squad carried me.

I tried to fight them but they outnumbered me and they were stronger than a weakling like me.

I don't know how long I was screaming and how many attention we've gathered on the school hallways as Krystal's squad carried me.

No one dared to interfere or help me. They were too afraid to get Krystal's attention. No one would dare go against the school owner's only daughter and heiress.

"You b***h ruined my dress and you're going to pay for it!"

I don’t know how we ended up on top of the school building. They dragged me at the very edge and people below were all looking at me.

"You embarrassed me at the cafeteria now I'm going to return the favor"

Krystal reached for my collar and I got shocked when she began to rip my clothes.

"Strip the loser!" she commands and I feel hands all over my body.

"No! Please stop" I plead.

Tears were flowing nonstop and I was shaking in fear. The students below watched as they strip me naked.

"I don't have anything to wear, please stop!" I cried harder.

No one listens and no one cared about me. They were all laughing at me while my tears fall helplessly.

YAWN.

Everybody stopped and turned around to look at the person who just got everyone's attention.

A tall girl with an ash gray hair was stretching her limbs while she brushes her eyes.

Was she sleeping at the rooftop?

Realizing that my clothes are ripped, I quickly covered myself and bowed my head low.

"You are all so f*****g noisy" she says and I hear everyone gasp.

"How dare you speak against us?"

I wanted to tell the person to stop interfering or she will suffer the same way I do. These people are no joke when it comes to bullying.

I wanted to escape and jump off the building. I feel so humiliated and weak but then I felt sudden warmth and realized that a leather jacket was being placed over my shoulders.

I slowly lift my head and meet the most beautiful pair of eyes -

The same big doe eyes I have met at my balcony. Her jacket smelled like her, the same scent that overwhelmed me - vanilla.

When our gaze finally met, red eyes flashed through my memory but when I stared back carefully, her eyes were nothing but brown.

A tear escaped my eye because for some reason, I felt protected and safe.

She closed her eyes forcefully for a few seconds and when she opened them again, her gaze was nothing but purity.

"Are you okay frying pan?"
