From the Dark

One: does exists

Dante Re Moretti

Fuck, looks like today has also been added to my long list of waiting days.

This have been my routine for most of the days after coming to this town Pertbert.

My junior year evenings were spent in this small cafe looking at the words FATE and waiting for a certain purple eyed brunette, well if she and purple eyes actually exists.

Pathetic, I know.

"Isn't, Re?" Lucio asked me.

I had no f*****g idea what he was talking about. But looking at him beside me and the others across me I could certainly tell they were talking about me.

I arched an eyebrow at Lucio and a look of amusement crossed his eyes.

"What, Cio?" I asked Lucio, annoyed.

"We were just talking about Etta and how you both terribly miss each other. But don't worry Re she must have reached your house by now" I groaned when I heard him call me Re.

Re as in King in Italian, My middle name.

None other than my family or my organisation knows my full name Dante Re Moretti.

And none other than my family, Lucio and Violetta calls me Dante. I'm King or Re to others.

Lucio snickered . I looked at him . Looks like he is talking about Violetta.

Violetta, my-should-be girlfriend.

Violetta, my betrothed.

The only people I would trust my life with outside my family.

My papà, Violetta's father and were best friends and they ruled our organisation together.

To ensure the organisation stays in hand and to make sure we all remain together I was betrothed to Violetta last year to full fill her late father's final wish.

When we left for Pertbert two years ago Violetta stayed with her mother who was emotionally broken after her husband's death.

And somehow it looks like my mamma convinced her to Pertbert.

My family with few of our trusted people moved to Pertbert from our hometown until I complete my high school.

Once I've completed my senior year, we'll move back to our hometown, our kingdom which would become my kingdom as I have to take charge after my papà.

Tomorrow is the first day of our senior year and I'm not the one awaiting it. With one last look at the word FATE, I paid the bill and we left the cafe.

Until Tomorrow.

Picking up Violetta and Lucio, I drove through our neighbourhood to the only high school in this little town.

I saw a brunette and a blonde girl getting inside a red Ferrari through Etta's window.

As i saw the brunette I suddenly remembered the purple eyed girl.

Before I could think of halting the car I felt a hand on my thigh.

I looked at Violetta.

"Did you miss me?" she asked with a smile.

"Of course, silly me. You missed me" she continued.

The corner of my lips tugged upwards.

I glanced at Lucio through the mirror, he rolled his eyes with a smile.

I don't know why we all are full of smiles today and let me tell you, it doesn't happen everyday.

Looking back at Violetta, I noticed how beautiful she had become. She was my childhood crush.

But as we grew she became more like my responsibility, my obligation.

She is my first in everything and I'm hers.

But the feelings were nada.

~~~~~~~~

I parked my black Porsche in my usual spot and noticed a red Ferrari two spots away.

I wondered if it was the same one in which the brunette got inside and started walking with Lucio and Violetta.

I could feel eyes on me, but of course who the f**k cares.

My eyes took it time when crossing through brunettes, looks like my subconscious was still searching for a certain brunette.

Ha not you uh? It mocked.

Still being hung up on a girl who I never saw twice didn't sit well with my big-c**k ego.

The classes dragged as usual. It was no different from junior year but hey, who the hell expects?

I was walking along the corridor with Lucio who was talking how hot the cheerleaders were.

" Of course Cio, they are cheerleaders for a-"

I was cut in mid sentence as Lucio collided with a little girl with brunette hair.

"Oomph, heavens!!"

"Oomph holy f**k!?"

I heard curses simultaneously from the girl and Lucio, well if heavens were ever considered as a curse.

They both were on the floor facing each other.

They both groaned the same time.

The girl was rubbing her head while Lucio was rubbing his chest.

Looks like he got it good.

"Come on dude let's-"

I was cut again ,

"HOLY MOTHERFUCKING c**k, dude purple eyes do exists" Lucio cursed and said aloud for the whole corridor to hear.

I looked at Lucio to find him starring at the girl.

I looked at her down the ground to find the same purple eyes from the cafe two years ago starring right through mine.

Shit, so she does exists with those purple eyes.
