They Are Not Ordinary

CHAPTER 26

ASHTER STARR

Since Damien couldn't really do much with his big ass wound, we decided to just watch a movie.

Lame I know but we have no other choice.

We ended up watching a very old movie because Damien told me it was his favorite movie. The movie is super old Like... A few centuries ago.

But I didn't mind though it was pretty good.

But halfway through the movie, I didn't really watch it because I was obviously lost to a certain someone who is sitting beside me. He had this small scar on his forehead which made him look like a badass. And his smile... His smile is very attractive. Now I get why girls are all over him when he came here for the first time. Call me corny or whatever I don't care. I just find a small thing about him very adorable.

I saw a smile play on his lips before looking over at me

"You are supposed to be watching the movie Ashter not me"

"Ehh I prefer watching you though" I winked at him playfully, he let out a small giggle before looking away shyly.

"It's nice seeing you like this" I commented as he looked back at me again.

"Like what?"

"You know always smiling and laughing... I'm used to you being, quiet, scary, intimidating, and mysterious" I told him, as the movie plays in the background.

"Yeah that was just my walls I build up because I don't want other people to get close to me"

"Why? Are you afraid of letting people in?" I asked suddenly more interested in his story, not the movie.

"Yeah, I mean in my situation it's kinda hard because sometimes I just couldn't control myself and especially my thirst" He frowned "it was just... I was in so much pain that's why sometimes I ditch school because I couldn't take it anymore"

I frowned as well as I placed my hand on top of him. He looked at our hands and sighed.

"I just wish I was different..." He stated sadly "I mean I wish I live a normal life"

"Hey, I like you for you" I whispered to him then suddenly he laughed.

"Ashter you liked me cause you thought I was created by a god as you say" He chuckled and in a split second I feel his emotion suddenly change from sad to a playful one.

"What? That's a lie" I glared at him playfully and I was a bit offended.

"I think you forgot that I can read minds Ashter. Your thoughts are always loud" He teased as he laughed.

He really enjoys making fun of me.

"Well this is embarrassing" I groaned as I felt my cheeks turn super red as I remember all the things that went through my mind every time I think about it.

"Well, I hope you are prepared to be embarrassed more in the future" He teased again.

I smiled. He already thought about what will happen in the future.

This is so nice. This is a nice feeling.

After the movie finished Damien look at the clock and spoke.

"We only have ten minutes left Ashter" He sighed, Damien just lie down on the couch and closed his eyes resting for a bit before Zachary and Claude will come to get him while here I am getting lost in my thoughts.

I realized that what if they never came back? Or what if something bad will happen that includes them dying. I mean I don't want to think about that but I just can't help myself to think about it.

Suddenly all these what if's flooded into my mind. it actually made me want to tell everything to Damien. I mean the confidence suddenly comes into my body. Maybe this is the time I will acknowledge my feelings for him. I mean it's obvious that I like him for a long time I was just in denial.

This is the right time to put this out.

"Uh-- Damien"

Damien fluttered his eyes open and turned his head to look at me. He sat up because he noticed that I was about to say something important.

"I j...ust want to le...t you kn..ow" I slap myself internally because I was stuttering too much. Then I felt a hand on top of mine and saw that it was Damien. He gave me an encouraging smile.

"I...." I groaned at myself. I'm a stuttering mess when I am around him.

Fuck this, I'm not going to be afraid.

"I like you Damien" I kinda yelled that out than I intended to. Damien's mouth dropped. "I mean not as a friend I meant I like you... like you... More than friends..."

I finally let out a sigh in relief that I finally let that out, I've been carrying that weight around me and it feels so great.

It went from a comfortable silence into an awkward one. He just sat there with a shocked face.

"Well, I-" He was about to say something but I cut him off by pressing my palm into his mouth.

"You don't have to say anything... It's okay, I just needed to let that out before you left" I gave him a smile "I know it's going to be hard to fall for me because I am a human, not to mention I'm not drop dead gorgeo-..."

I was cut off when Damien smashed his lips into. It took me a second to respond as I had no idea what just happened. But when it hit me I started to move with him in sync. I could still taste the sweetness of his mouth and his plump lips.

When oxygen was needed we both pulled away at each other and Damien rested his forehead against mine.

"Wow" was the only thing I said. I kissed some guys before but Damien's are actually my favorite. His lips are different from them. It was actually soft and sweet which is odd because he never wear chapstick.

Damien placed a string of my hair behind my ear before placing his palm on my cheeks.

"I know it's bad but, I really do care about you Ashter" He whispered, his hot breath hitting my skin. I stared at him lovingly for a long time and I was about to say something but there was a loud knock coming from the balcony door.

Both of our heads snapped towards it.

I look over to my balcony door to see who was that and I already knew just from the figure who was it.

Damn it, Zachary, why do you need to come in very bad timing.

"Guys open up we are coming in and I advise that you put on clothes now if you guys are naked" Zachary shouted, my cheeks went red just thinking about being naked with Damien even though we weren't.

"Just freaking come in! the door is open" Zachary and Claude slowly come in checking if we are naked, then when they saw us fully clothed they proceeded. "We are not naked I just want to remind you green minded jerk"

Zachary was the first to come in. His hands were stuffed in the pockets of his brown leather jacket with his black skinny jeans and black oxford shoes. I wasn't gonna lie if I hadn't met Damien and I hadn't found him interesting, I would have definitely gotten it with Zachary.

I felt a small nudge beside me and I turn around to see it's Damien. His eyes were furrowed and if I wasn't wrong it seems like he looked jealous...

"I just want to let you know that your thoughts are really loud sometimes, the three of us can hear you, you know" Zachary smirked lightly. My face flushed lightly. gosh, I really hate that they have an ability like that.

"Uh---"

"It's okay I get that a lot" Zachary winked at me and Claude just got inside.

"Okay so yeah... I'm so sorry to say this but we have to go right now. We are already late as it is. I wish I could give you more time but... I really can't" Zachary shrugged as both of them went to Damien's side to help him.

"It's alright dude I can walk on my own" I heard Damien say to his friends as he brush them away.

"It's alright don't be ashamed every guy has a weakness so just suck it up and let us help you" Zachary insisted while putting around Damien's shoulder for support and we all went downstairs.

They are about to exit our main door then suddenly my body move forward and ran for them.

"Wait!" I shouted as they were about to step outside my house. I moved in front of Damien and Zachary just walk inside their car and waited for him. I was staring at him for a while. He also did the same. in just a split second I wrapped my arms around him. Squeezing tightly but just enough not to hurt his wound. he was taken aback at first but he also wrapped his arms around me and squeezed back.

I inhaled his scent, it was very intoxicating. I sighed as I come to think of it. I knew it's going to be hard not to miss him.

We finally pulled away after a few seconds. Damien searched for my hand and intertwined them. He gave it a soft kiss and I smiled. Now, this is just making it harder for me. I sighed sadly knowing that I will let go of his hand.

He started walking to the car and I followed him, I. I watch him as he went inside his car. Once he got inside I placed my hand on the glass window of the car.

After that, they finally drove away. I watch as the figure of their car gets smaller as they go further until they are really gone.

I stood there for a little while hoping that their car would come back. but it didn't.

I slowly made my way inside and closed the door behind me, locking it before I made my way upstairs. I sighed looking around my room and feeling really empty. I was so used to Damien being always here and sitting in my bed.

Now I really have nothing to look forward to when I will come home from school.

I looked over to where Damien usually say and lie down.

"Please I hope you will get better and I hope you will come home soon"
