Chapter 2- Clover's First Date

Clover's Mansion: Clover's POV

It was a beautiful morning. The girls and I were having breakfast with Braedey.

"Say Clover, I think ya should ask Garath out for a date." Alex said, smirking.

"Shut up. He's cold as ice." I hissed.

What Alex didn't know is that I was actually thinking about taking her advice. I was merely using frustration to hide my true feelings.

"Don't try denying it Clover. You love Garath. I think goin' on a date with him is a great idea." Sam replied.

"Fine. I'll do that after school today." I said sarcastically.

"That's the spirit, Clover. And besides, I know how you feel. It took me a while to muster up the courage to ask Alex out for a date." Braedey replied.

After we ate breakfast, we headed for our cars. We got into our red Camaro, while Braedey climbed into his own car. It was a 2013 Dodge Viper SRT. It was painted black with purple decals and rims. He calls it the Dark Viper.

And as we came outside, I caught a glance at Garath's house. He lived in a huge mansion right next to us.

"Wow. Would you look at that?" I asked.

Sam stopped and looked at the house, Alex looked out the window as well.

"Whoa. I didn't know he was that rich." Alex said.

"Yeah. That is a very nice house." Sam replied.

I also noticed a motorcycle sitting in his driveway.

"Now that is a nice bike." I said.

The girls followed my gaze.

"Yes. That's a Harley-Davidson Custom Chopper." Sam replied.

"And quite a nice one at that." Alex said.

"I wonder what he has in there." Braedey said.

A moment later, we saw Garath walking into his driveway. He was wearing black leather and his pendant again, but this time he also wore sunglasses.

He mounted his motorcycle and fired up the ignition. The engine roared and Garath rode off to school with us following behind him.

Timeskip: Beverly Hills High School

My POV

I rode to school on my Flame Cycle with the wind blowing through my hair. I looked into my rearview mirror and saw the girls in their Camaro. They were following me, but I didn't care. As we came to a red light, the girls pulled up beside me. I looked at them and smiled. Clover blushed as she smiled back. I looked over my shoulder and noticed that the girls had a friend with them. He was driving a sweet looking Dodge Viper. He waved at me and I waved at him in return. As soon as the light turned green, we continued on our way to school. We got there in minutes and I locked my Flame Cycle to a bike rack and put the keys into my pocket. The girls and their friend came by and I was happy to see them.

"Hey handsome. How's it going?" Clover asked.

"Pretty good, beautiful. It's good to see you girls." I answered smoothly as I gave Clover a smoldering look.

"Sup dude." The young male said.

"G'day. What's your name?" I asked.

"The name's Braedey Martin." He answered.

"Nice to meet ya, Braedey. I think we'll get along just fine." I said.

"Hey, what's up losers?" A voice called out.

I looked towards the school, and I saw Mandy and her goons coming. The very sight of her infuriates me.

The bullies came closer and Mandy smiled when she saw me.

"Good to see you handsome. I decided to forgive you. But if ya join us, we'll leave you and your friends alone. What do you say?" Mandy asked.

I didn't say a word. I just spun on my right heel and launched my left leg into a Side Kick, nailing Mandy in the face.

"Begone!" I yelled, as I began to lay the smackdown on the raven-haired witch.

Mandy fell on to the concrete as I towered over her.

"I will never join you, succubus. So scram." I said aggressively.

Mandy was clearly angry, and she refused to go down without a fight.

"This isn't over! You haven't seen the last of me yet!" She yelled angrily, as she limped away.

"God, I hate that witch." I hissed.

"No need to worry about her. She won't be a problem forever." Clover said, placing a gentle hand on my shoulder.

This in turn calmed me right down.

"Thanks Clover." I replied.

We headed inside the school and everything was running pretty smoothly.

Timeskip: First Period

Clover's POV

We arrived at Geography class and Garath got a seat next to me. The teacher began talking about the equator and I saw Garath pulling out his phone and a pair of black earbuds.

He put his earbuds into his ears and plugged them into his phone. As the teacher kept talking, I heard the faint voice of Eminem.

I didn't know he liked music. But as far as I'm concerned, music was way better than listening to a lecture that nobody cares about.

Timeskip: Gymnasium

Clover's POV

It was time for gym and we were gonna play dodgeball. I had a wide smile forming on my face.

"You're certainly in a pretty good mood." Alex said.

"Because Mandy's gonna get her butt whooped." I said.

"I can't wait to see what happens to her." Braedey replied

Then the door to the boy's locker room swung open and Garath came out. He was wearing a white sleeveless shirt and blue jersey shorts. A lot of girls were swooning at the sight of his muscular build. He was as muscular as Arnold Schwarzenegger was for his role as the Terminator.

"Man. That guy is pumped. I mean, look at those guns." Braedey said.

"No kidding. That is an impressive six-pack. And look at those pectorals." I replied.

Upon closer examination, I could see through his shirt and I noticed a large Yin-Yang style tattoo on his chest.

"I didn't know he had a tattoo." Sam said.

"Indeed. And by judging the design, I'd say that's a Yin-Yang tattoo." Alex replied.

"Yes. And look. There's an animal in each section of the Yin-Yang symbol. I see a tiger inside of the dark Yin, and a dragon in the brighter Yang." Braedey interjected as he pointed at the design of Garath's tattoo.

The girls and I looked closer and Braedey was right. The Yin section did have a tiger, and there was a dragon on the Yang section.

The coach stood in the center of the gym as Garath power-marched up to him, glaring at Mandy and her friends.

"Alright kid. It's gonna be just you against those three. Think you can handle it?" He asked smugly.

Garath only laughed and got into a stance.

" かかって来い。それらはジャブロニのプッシュオーバーの束にすぎません。" He rebuffed confidently, clearly showing that he wasn't afraid of anything. (Translation from Japanese: Bring it on. They are just a bunch of jabroni pushovers.)

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the main event!" The coach said loudly and the whole crowd began cheering.

Music began playing as Mandy and her friends got ready.

"LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE!" The coach yelled

Mandy smirked, ready to take the boy down. But as soon as she threw a ball at him, Garath dodged it with a Butterfly Twist.

"¡Me extrañaste!" He said, mockingly. (Translation from Spanish: You missed me!)

The bullies threw many balls at Garath, but the boy was too quick and dodged them using a variety of acrobatic tricks. The girls could not hit him.

"Whoa. He's pretty good." Alex said.

"Yeah, I mean, look at him go." Sam replied.

"He's dodging shots like they're nothing." I said.

"No kidding. Even I would be exhausted if I tried to dodge that many balls. How can he do that?" Braedey asked.

"I don't know, but who cares? He's pretty good." I answered.

Dominique threw another ball, but Garath shot his right arm forward and smashed it with the palm of his hand. The ball was deflected right back at Dominique who got hit in the eye. She struggled to her feet, showing that her left eye was now purple and swollen. Then Garath grabbed a ball and hurled it at Caitlin. The ball smashed into Caitlin's stomach and knocked the wind out of her as she was sent flying into the brick wall. Now it was only Garath and Mandy.

"It's just you and me now loser." She said wickedly.

"C'mon." Garath replied.

Mandy threw a ball at Garath, but he does another Butterfly Twist and dodges it. After landing, Garath throws a dodgeball into the air.

"SOREI!" He yelled, as he smashes his right palm into the ball as it came down. The impact sent the ball flying into Mandy's face, breaking her nose, and sending her flying into a garbage can.

"You were good, kid, real good. But as long as I'm around, you'll always be second best, see?" Garath said confidently.

Everyone cheered, Garath had won. I ran up there and kissed him. He smiled and took my hand as we headed for the locker rooms.

Timeskip: Beverly Hills High School Parking Lot

My POV

"How did you do that? You swatted Mandy and her goons like flies." Sam said.

"I am a black belt in several forms of martial arts." I answered.

"What forms did you learn?" Alex asked.

"Jeet Kune Do, Judo, Karate, Kickboxing, Krav Maga, Kung Fu, Taekwondo, Wing Chun and Wushu." I answered.

Braedey and the girls were shocked to hear the forms I listed. They had no idea that I learned so many styles.

"Isn't Jeet Kune Do the form of martial arts that was founded by Bruce Lee?" Braedy asked.

"Yes. Perhaps I could teach you. I have a private dojo in my backyard garden at home." I answered.

"Sounds great. I'd love to learn The Way of the Intercepting Fist." Braedy replied.

Clover looked at her friends.

"You guys go on ahead. We'll catch up." She said.

Braedey, Alex and Sam nodded, climbed into their cars and left. As soon as they were gone, Clover looks at me and smiles.

"Garath, I was wondering if you wanted to go out for a date later." She said.

I chuckled, because she had no idea that I was about to ask her the same thing.

"Of course Clover. In fact, I'd be more than happy to have you as my girlfriend." I replied.

Clover hugged me. She couldn't believe her ears.

"You don't know how much that means to me." She said.

"Well, ya wanna go out for dinner?" I asked.

"Sure. Tonight at 8." She answered.

With that, we climbed on to my motorcycle and headed home.

Timeskip: my mansion

My POV

It was 7:30 P.M. and I had just gotten out of the shower. I used Ocean Waves scented shampoo and body wash. Now all I needed was something nice to wear, and after that I would go pick out a car. I dug through my closet until I finally found what I was looking for; a black and gold suit


I put on my suit and headed for my garage. I have a whole collection of sweet cars and I love them all. But there was one that was my pride and joy; a prototype car that I'm building. I decided to take my beautiful, red 1966 Ford Mustang GT Fastback with chrome American Racing Shelby Razor rims.

I grabbed the keys, climbed into the red Mustang and drove out of my garage. I parked in front of the girls' house and honked the horn. After this, I got out and stood by my car as I waited for Clover. A few moments later, she came out wearing a beautiful red velvet gown.


"Good evening Clover. Love the dress by the way." I said smoothly.

Clover laughed.

"Good to see ya Garath. And you look quite handsome in that suit." She said.

I went around to the passenger's side and opened the door for her.

"After you m'lady." I said.

"Such a gentleman." Clover replied.

As soon as Clover climbed into my Mustang, I shut the door and went back to the driver's side where I got in as well.

"How 'bout Longhorn Steakhouse?" Clover asked.

"Sounds great." I answered with a smile.

Timeskip: Longhorn Steakhouse

Clover's POV

Garath and I were at Longhorn Steakhouse. He pulled my chair out for me. I gladly sat down and scooted up as he sat across from me. I ordered a medium-well sirloin with French fries and sweet potatoes, while Garath got a T-Bone with fries and mashed potatoes. His T-bone was cooked Rare.

"You sure you can eat a rare steak?" I asked.

"Of course. I do it all the time. In fact, I cook steaks at home sometimes, and I always cook 'em rare. I love fat on my steaks." He said.

"You cook?" I asked.

"That I do. I learned how to cook from my father. Mother on the other hand taught me how to bake. I used to make Gingerbread cookies with her for Christmas." Garath answered.

"I'll have to try some of your cookies this year." I said, laughing.

"Well then, it's a good thing I already planned on making them." Garath replied.

Soon, our dinner arrived. I watched as Garath cut into his meat with ease.

"So, how's the job?" I asked.

"Oh, you mean my job as a spy. Well, I like it, but my bosses are jerks. They always send me on suicide missions, and they don't know when to shut up." He said.

"Well, perhaps you should join me, Braedey and the girls. We're spies as well, but our employer is a very nice man. You'll like him." I replied.

"In that case, I'll have to look into that." Garath said.

Timeskip: Clover's Mansion

My POV

I took Clover home after our date. She said it was the best night of her life.

"I'm always ready for a date with you Clover." I said sweetly.

Clover smiled.

"Mind if I sleep with you tonight?" She asked.

"Sure. I'm fine with that." I answered.

Clover pecked me on the cheek. I don't know how, but I managed to read her thoughts.

'Best boyfriend ever!'

She went inside and gathered pajamas and an outfit for tomorrow. Clover returned with a sack where her clothing was. We drove into my garage and Clover's eyes widened.

"Whoa. I didn't know you had so many cars in here." She said.

"Yep. It's better than having just one. I've also been busy working on a prototype car as well." I replied.

"I'm excited to see it when it's completed." Clover said.

We headed for my master bedroom.

"Wow. This is a nice room." Clover said.

"I'm glad you like it. I've got other rooms that I'd be happy to show you tomorrow. After all, tomorrow is Saturday." I replied.

Clover and I both changed into our pajamas. She wore a red, short sleeve shirt and blue pajama pants. While I on the other hand wore a pair of pajama pants that look like jeans, and a black, short sleeved shirt. We climbed into my bed and curled up under the sheets, snuggling with each other.

"Goodnight Garath. I love you." Clover said sweetly.

"I love you too Clover." I replied, as she pulled me into a deep, passionate kiss.

We made out for a few minutes before pulling away. I turned out the lights and we fell asleep in each other's arms.
