~Blaz~

🎼 Crash bang! That’s all that was heard from the cafeteria. Then it was girls screaming and I would recognise Nicole’s maddening screams anyplace. But I noticed Rich girl isn’t at the table after I specifically told her not to move. Why does she always disobey me? If she was scared of me like everybody else life would be so much easier for me.

Is she… No… She’s too sweet for that sort of thing.

The screaming turned into shouting and people started to leave their tables to see the action however the action came to us as Nicole smashed through the doors screaming.

“SHE’S A FREAK!” She screamed. She looks genuinely terrified which made me worry.

Meow’ I jumped when the cat appeared on table next to me smiling manically at her. Then he tapped his paw on the table once…

Twice…

Thrice.

Angelica must have used her teleporting ability because she was suddenly just there there standing in Nicole’s direction of running. But I can tell the teleporting took up a lot of stamina because she looks like she’s about to collapse. “Nothing they haven’t heard before. Right Nicole?” Nicole (with a battle cry) tackled her to the ground.

The cat hissed while I burst out laughing unable to control myself. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a girl fight. He bit my arm ruining my jacket before weeving through people’s feet. What’s his problem?

Angelica has the upper hand since she rolled them over and pinned Nicole down. She continuously kept brutally punching Nicole in the face until Nicole’s pack came in pulling her off her.

See nothing to worry about it’s all over.

 They flew kicks into her stomach making Angelica cry out for help. Everyone is just backing away scared and one began to kick her head. That’s a kill blow… This is no longer a stupid fight otherwise they would walk off. You can’t kick someone when they’re already down unless you’re hoping for the worst. I can see Nicole grabbing a plate and before she could do anything anger blinded me.

~🎶~

~Angelica~

I’m scared of myself. I feel so angry and the instinct to kill the girls harming me is growing stronger. So I let them kick me even though I can feel myself bleeding and my hands burning like there’s a fire running through the veins.

“You’re a bitch.” Someone’s Nike shoe smashed my nose knocking my head to the side and that’s when I saw Nicole with a plate in her hand and pure malice in her eyes. I attempted to crawl away but they kept throwing punches and kicks making it almost it impossible without losing an eye.

“I hate you.”

Feeling is mutal mole.

I can see myself launching at her and ripping out her hair which is not like me. Not at all… Why shouldn’t I torture her she deserves it. No no she doesn’t… But she does…

A black blur flew past swinging a fist against Nicole’s face.

“Blaz?” I gasped. He turned to the other girls and hit them away when they were fighting against him. He just kept shoving them away and I swear I heard him growl like a hellhound but they kept coming back for more like wild cats. This isn’t like them either. They sure are manipulative but violent? I guess I misjudged how far they would go.

If he’s going to fight them, a dark angel not to mention a guy! Then I have to stop or fight beside him because I’m not giving him the satisfaction of saving me again.

“Just back away.” He growled.

“Blaz… You hit me!” Nicole whimpered staggering across the ground helplessly. Then her eyes turned black and became soulless.

“And I’ll do it again if you don’t fuck off.” They all lunged at him with long manicured claws and I jumped up throwing my knee into one of their stomachs. The same girl I hit lifted her hand to smack me but someone hauled me back and the back of my head smacked into someone’s chest.

“Angie what are you doing?” His familiar voice just made me angry. This is happening because of him. For once Blaz isn’t in the wrong it’s my best friend. The one I grew up with and shared everything with and he just went behind my back. Turning around, I glared up at Henry. He’s average looking, not something to cry over but I can’t help it.

 “You slept with her.” I whimpered. Henry stared at me stunned and then I swung my fist in his face.

Everyone gasped but then everyone was quiet. I can hear my heart thundering in my ears and Blaz’s uneasy breathing.

“All of you in my office now!”

~🎶~

I walked beside Blaz right behind our fuming principal just to get a rise out of Henry. He didn’t say anything but he kept looking up at me when I spared a glance his way.

Blaz whispered making me jump. “You shouldn’t have teleported.”

“I wasn’t in the mood for a chase.” I replied darkly.

“As much as I love this little bad girl side of you you used a lot of power for that trick princess and it is starting show on you. Not to mention you were too weak to continue on with the fight.” I wish that were the case.

“It wasn’t weakness.” I whispered but said the next thing a little louder just for Henry to hear. “I have to talk to you later.”

“Did I say you could speak!?” Mr Brown barked.

“What’s wrong?” Blaz questioned.

“I’ll tell you later.”

“Quiet.” We shut up but I felt Blaz move closer to me until our shoulders bumped. I think that was his way of trying to lighten my mood. I appreciate it to be honest so I bumped his shoulder. He smirked down at me and knocked his hips into mine which hurt a little because I’ve been punched there. I showed no weakness and elbowed his chest. He gently elbowed my stomach and I elbowed him back suddenly he pushed me and I silently gasped and he silently chuckled.

“Are you kidding me?” I mouthed and he shrugged pouting.

We got to the principals office so I tripped Blaz as I walked in and his head hit the doorframe.

“Bitch.” He muttered. I didn’t smile… on the outside. Henry was about to stand next to me but Blaz managed to get to me first and pushed me closer to the desk.

“You girls wait outside.” Mr Brown ordered Nicole’s pack of rats but Nicole stayed standing way too close to Henry for my liking. “I hope you know how wrong it is to hit girls Mr Furia.”

“We fought for equal rights we must suffer the consequences.” I stood up for him and I felt Blaz smile at me but I didn’t look to check.

“Oh you have smart mouth now Ms Shanley?” Can’t take him seriously with the curly moustache.

“They were attacking him he was defending himself.” I stated.

Nicole decided to step in. “Mr Brown Angelica started it.”

“Because antagonizing me with your insults and petty opinions didn’t strike a nerve.” I stated glaring around the boys to look at her. “You hurt me. I hurt you back it’s as simple as that Mr Brown.”

“What did you say Nicole?”

“I didn’t say anything sir she just came up to me we were talking and then she hit me. I was defending myself.”

“She’s lying.” Blaz said.

“You Blaz are walking on a thin rope so I suggest you be quiet.”

“May I say something?” Henry asked and Mr Brown nodded. “Angelica would not hurt someone without a good reason.”

“Really? She stormed out of class and punched Blaz in the face for stealing her bracelet.”

“Necklace.” I corrected. Blaz couldn’t contain the grin.

“And now today she has punched you in the face.” Mr Brown said to Henry.

“I deserved it. I did something that hurt her and in reality I deserve much worse.”

“I’m willing to inflict the pain you deserve.” Blaz had to add.

Henry ignored him. “Angelica I’m sorry.”

“You may express your apologies in detention this Saturday.”

“Mr Brown I am innocent! Besides I have plans this weekend.”

“Yes with me. See you this Saturday everyone. Dismissed.”

Mum is going to kill me.

~🎶~

My mother paced up and down in front of the couch I sat quietly on. To say she’s mad is an understatement. To say she’s lost her mind is probably a good way to describe it.

“Detention! Detention? Angelica!”

“It is a few hours of my Saturday doing homework, no big deal.”

“No big deal? Angelica my good little girl in detention! What did I do to fail as a mother?”

“Forget to mention you aren’t my mother.”

“What?”

“Nothing.”

“Don’t tell your father about this he’s already trying to fight for custody.”

“What?”

“Oh Angie why did you do it?” She asked kneeling down in front of me and grabbing my hands.

Might as well tell her… “She slept with Henry.” I sniffled. Her eyes widened in shock and I looked away from her unable to contain the tears.

“I don’t believe it.”

“I wish I was lying.” I sobbed getting up but mother grabbed and pulled me into a hug.

“It’s always the charming ones.” She whispered.

“Was dad charming?”

“Very… His only problem is gets bored too easily.”

“I guess Henry got bored of me.”

“Aw baby he would never get bored of you. Maybe he just thought you weren’t interested in him that way.”Oh great it’s my fault. I pulled away from her and it’s taking everything in me not to stomp my foot like a child.

“We almost kissed. We spoke hypothetically about a relationship and almost kissed! Then he goes and has sex with the most evil bitch on the planet.”

“Jelly swore…” Michael whispered in the next room.

“I’ll let you off but Angie violence is never the answer.”

Could have fooled me.

“Can I hang out with Blaz now?” I whined.

“Blaz?” She repeated confused.

“He’s waiting outside.”

“I see.” She smiled.

“What?”

“Invite him for dinner.” He randomly ordered. Why?

“You fired the chef who’s going to be cooking?”

“I will.” I snickered so she ordered sternly. “Invite him.”

“Fine.” He’s going to say no anyway.

“Take Michael with you.”

“What?”

“Take him.”

I gulped. “Michael let’s go!”

“With Blaz?”

“Yes.”

“Yay!” He ran to me and ended up grabbing my hand to drag me to the door with that excited glint in his eye. I have to trust Michael’s judgment from now on, he adores Blaz and Blaz has turned out for the good while Henry. He hates Henry that should have been my first sign. “Blaz!”

“Hey Mike?” Blaz gazed up at me with a questionable glance.

“He’s coming with us.” I can’t be bothered scolding him for the nickname.

“Great he can be the judge.”

I perked my brow. “Judge of what?”

“You’ll see.”

“Where are we going?” Michael asked excited. Blaz began lifting Michael up and set him on his shoulders. Michael beamed down at me over joyed which made me giggle.

“We’re going to my place.”

“Your place?” I said unbelievably. I’ve never pictured Blaz with a house.

I’ve pictured him holding a pitchfork and riding giant hell hounds across masses of distruction.

But a house?

That’s so weird.

“I thought you were going to invite Blaz for dinner.” Michael said. Blaz smiled at me surprised then he smirked cockily.

“We’ll come back then.”

“You can just say no.”

“Why would I?” I scowled at him. “But we need to get you out of those clothes.”

“I beg your pardon?”

~ 🎶~

“This is your house?” I asked incredulously staring at a plain white double storey house too big for even a front yard. Where are the hell hounds? The iron gates? The pools of blood?

“Yup.” He said popping the ‘p’.

“Cool.” Michael said. Blaz walked up to the front door and it opened on its own creeping me out. But the inside is the total opposite of the outside. The walls of the large rounded hallway are painted navy blue. The whole place looks like it’s been created to look like a house from one of Jane Austen’s novels. All regal, kind of spectacular with its blue and green furniture and I even noticed one canary yellow love seat in the room beside us. The one bright object in this dark but remarkable house.

“Master Blaz.” I charming deep voice echoed in the house and I jumped knocking into Blaz.

“You have a butler?” The man stood tall and proud with black soulless eyes that matched his sleek black hair and formal suit. Picture Black Butler only less handsome and creepier, not to mention he has a black scaly tail holding up a tray of drinks.

“Just a demon who owes my family his life. Rodmin take my friend to Erica’s room and unlock Erica’s wardrobe.”

“Erica has forbidden anyone coming close to her closet after your habit of burning her clothes.” I glared at Blaz as Michael giggled.

“That was years ago.” He stated.

“The memory still burns.” Rodmin replied blankly then made choking sounds. Oh he was just laughing at his pun.

“Why do I need Erica’s clothes?” I questioned.

“Because you’re unflattering to the eye.”

“I must agree with Master Blaz.”

“Rodmin has a thing with this century’s fashion.” Blaz explained.

“I miss the Parisian fashion. How I miss those powdered wigs…” He sighed sadly as if he were thinking of the death of a friend. “This way madame.”

He led me to a staircase with a smooth wooden handrail and emerald carpeted stairs.

I never thought I’d ever, ever, ever be inside Blaz’s house. It’s so normal… I expected dungeons, demons in cages, heads dangling from the ceiling, people chained to the walls, maybe even a coffin or two.

Instead I get Mr Darcy’s house and I love it.

Rodmin opened a door with a black skull on wearing a black bow and inside was a small bed, an oakwood desk with a computer and piles of black journals. The walls in Erica’s room are mauve and black moving shadows painted on them. I thought they were ours but they’re tree shaped and moving calmly and suspect they follow the weather outside.

“Pick something from my mistress’s closet.”

“Really I’m fine.”

“I’ll pick something then.” He said literally smiling at the idea.

“No powdered wigs please.” He chuckled and his charcoal tail swished side to side. Where did the tray go? A small figure appeared at the open window meowing in greeting.

“Well hello Javier.” Rodmin greeted. Mr Cat leaped onto the silky covers on the bed and sat tall looking as proud as a prince.

“Javier? That’s his name?”

“How’s the girlfriend?” Rodmin continued and both ignored me.

Meow.’

“Didn’t think it would last the pampered ones are so demanding.”

“You can understand him.” My eyes widened in shock.

“Clear as day.”

“I do prefer Mr Cat.” I grinned.

“So does he.” Rodmin said making me smile at Javier. “You’ve seen the picutres?”

Meow.’ Mr Cat nodded.

“I know he draws her all the time.”

“Who draws what?” They both looked me then at each other.

“This shall please the young master.”

~ 🎶~

I dress in a black tube top, black skinny jeans and black hightops. Erica only owns black which is better than I guess her only owning any other colour. I would have looked ridiculous in all pink or all auburn and again I avoided looking at a mirror when I walked out of her room.

Rodmin was waiting for me. “May ask your name madame? You’re the first girl he’s ever brought over.”

“I am?” I asked surprised.

“He always goes to a girl’s house but never has he once brought her here.”

“The last thing he needs is a girl he had fling with knowing where he lives.”

He narrowed his eyes on me. “He plays with their sensitive hearts but he doesn’t have flings. He’s still too young for that.” I knew it. I smiled to myself. “Name.”

“Oh right I’m Angelica.”

He smiled sinisterly. “Interesting.”

I gulped. “Is that Master Blaz’s room?” I asked gesturing with my head to the door next to Erica’s.

“Yes.”

“Hm… I’m sorry where’s your bathroom?”

“Just down that way.” His tail pointed to the end of the hallway.

“Tell Blaz I’ll be down in a minute.”

He stared at me blankly for a long time. “Yes Madame.” He disappeared down the stairs and I changed my direction to Blaz’s door.

“It’s just a door Angie.” I whispered before turning the knob. It silently opened and I was met with darkness because the curtains were drawn.

He’s been in my room counless times. Do I have no right to be snooping in his?

I found the light switch then screamed at the sight of Blaz sitting on his bed smirking at me.

“Bloody hell Blaz!”

“Come on in why don’t you you nosy bitch.” I kicked the door shut and he snapped his fingers the lights went out. I scowled and turned them back on him but crashed into the door because he was suddenly in front of me with a hand on the light switch. “Come for your underwear? I will never let you get them alive.”

“Caught me redhanded. Damn you.” I walked around him so he turned the lights off making me trip a little. “Ugh Blaz!” I snapped my fingers willing a purple flame to light up on my thumb so I could see. I’m at his desk that’s piled in papers and pencils.

“Don’t look at those.” He ordered so I did what I had to and went through his drawings. But I didn’t expect what I saw.

I gasped. “That’s me.”

“I wanted to see what you would look like in wings.” In black wings and a skimpy warrior outfit… His hand closed on mine killing the flame. The lights turned on and Blaz turned me away from his desk holding my locket.

“Did you steal that from me again?” I asked annoyed.

“Not stealing it.”

“How did you even get it?”

“I went to your room to collect some of your underwear and decided to take this…”

“Instead?” I said hopeful.

“As well.” He corrected and I rolled my eyes. He stepped behind me and I followed him with my eyes suspicious. He put the locket on me and I shivered as his hot breath ran down my neck. “How’s your back?”

“No recent attacks so I’m assuming they won’t be happening again.”

He ran a finger down along my spine. “They will.”

I shivered. “Why?”

“They’re you’re wings.”

“How does that work?”

“It’s just the angel way.”

“This does not seem like angels Blaz. It’s all too scientific to be supernatural.”

“Scientific?” He repeated.

“You know what I mean.”

“For once I really don’t.” He laughed. I groaned rolling my eyes then asked him something wondering why I haven’t asked him before. “Is there a God?” He was silent for a long time.

“He forgot about us a long time ago.” He stormed to the door but held it open not looking at me.
