"You said you would hang out"I whined

Lila had told me that she belonged to me and now she was backing out. It wasn't fair and she wasn't even giving me any reason why she wouldn't be able to spend the day with me. I had gone to the site earlier to kill boredom and I had looked forward to spending time with Lila but that plan was no more and the worst part of it was that I was going to die of boredom. Literally.

"I said I'm sorry," she said

"I'm still asking why"

Her phone rang.

"I'll have to answer this," she told me

"Yh,yh pretend like we aren't having a conversation here," I said with irritation.

I examined her as she spoke on the phone. She smiled then blushed, then there was more smiling and more blushing.

"Is he the reason why you can't spend time with me?"I asked as soon as she went off the line

"Who's he, what are you even talking about" she blushed

"You're seriously going to play dumb right now, "I said with folded arms and an arched eyebrow

"He's just a guy from work. It's no big deal he just wants to take me out for dinner that's all" she explained with a shrug and the end

"I would have let you go if you had told me" I sat on the couch

"I'm sorry," she said remorsefully

"You always are. Get going now, you don't want to keep Prince charming waiting" I told her with a smile.

"You're the best" she hugged me

"I've always been"

St Clair's POV

I had gone to the store to get something for Meredith. I got to the floor my apartment was situated at and I saw Meredith leaning on my door with Hazel bending down. I got closer and noticed spilled milk and broken glasses on the floor. Hazel was trying to clean it up and she was bleeding. I didn't like the sight one bit.

"Didn't you see the need to help her? "I asked Meredith with a frown

"I wouldn't help her even if it was to save my life," she said and shrugged.

"Hazel, get up let me help you with your hand"

She didn't respond

"Hazel?"

Silence

"Hazel" I yanked her from the ground and took her inside my apartment and Meredith wasn't so happy about it. I searched for first aid and made Hazel sit down. I removed the shards of glass but she didn't flinch, she didn't even hiss in pain.

"Doesn't it hurt? "I asked

She didn't respond

"Talk to me, does it hurt"I said bandaging her hand after I had  cleaned the cut

"Pain is something I've learned to handle. This is nothing" she whispered 

"Aren't you done already?"Meredith asked irritated

"He is, "Hazel said and yanked her hand away from my palm

"I'll help you clean up, "I told hazel as she stood up

"Your girlfriend wouldn't approve of that" she hissed at me

"I won't" Meredith chipped in

"But I would approve of it," I said. Hazel left

"You're not going anywhere" Meredith ordered

"I have a right to movement and right now you are restricting it, "I said angrily

"I'm your girlfriend, St Clair," she told me

"I'm aware of that," I told her with folded arms. She was trying to delay me and I knew it yet I was letting her. I shoved past her but by the time I was out of my apartment, the floor was clean and Hazel was already inside. I sighed. 

What has gotten into me?

Krystabel's POV

It was already late and yet I haven't eaten since Meredith had spilled all my groceries on the floor. I looked at my hand. It was getting better but it still hurts.

A knock on the door brought me out of my thoughts on how to avenge my cut hand.  It was St Clair

"How's your hand?" he asked

"Better" I answered 

"I'm sorry for what happened" he apologized

"Hmmm" I nodded

"I was thinking I would make up for the whole scene," he said while rubbing his neck

"Where's Meredith, "I asked

"On a night shift, she's a nurse"

I nodded at the extra information

"Will I be amused? "I asked

"Depends on your definition of amusing"

I bit my lips contemplating whether I should accept the offer or not.

"Hold on, "I told him and went to get my jelly shoes.

Let's go then" he said when I came out of my apartment. We stepped outside and I was shocked, utterly shocked. Paris was a beautiful place at night. It wasn't like New York, not one bit. New York was a city that never went to sleep, a place where dreams were chased, a place that was always alive but Paris was different, it was like a world of stars with lights illuminating all the corners of the streets making it seem like something out of a Disney production.

   The stars shined bright as though they competed. The moon peeked out from underneath the clouds and basked the city in its full glory. It was beautiful, simply breathtaking.

"So apart from Meredith who else is related to you?"I asked

"My mom"  he answered

"Where is she?" I asked 

"Your mom's where?"he asked, avoiding my question 

"Dead"

"Dad? "he asked and I tensed up

"I thought we were changing topics"

He nodded. He seemed to understand that I didn't want to talk about the man I called my father.

"How long is your relationship with Meredith?"I asked after moments of silence.

"Two years and counting  "he seemed proud of the achievement. I scoffed inwardly. His girlfriend was a wolf dressed in sheep clothing.

"How long was your last relationship?" he asked 

"Let's see. 0years,0months,0days,0hours,0minutes and 0 seconds"

"You've never been in a relationship before?" he asked, surprised

"Yeah" I affirmed

"You've never met any guy you're interested in?" he asked 

I shook my head

"Nope"

"So you've never met THAT GUY that would make butterflies in your belly?"

"Nope" I replied 

"You sure?"

"Surer than anything in the world"

Her lips curved into a smile 

"Don't you think I'm that perfect guy?" Sr Clair asked and my jaw dropped.
