JoJo nestled closer to Draco’s chest, trying to keep her tears at Bay as they kept wetting his bare chest.
“Don’t scare me like that anymore, please don’t” she sniffed, tightening her arms on him.
“I promise” he replied, and she continued staying in his arms till she was able to calm down.
He broke the hug, and she looked into his piercing brown eyes, they’re just as beautiful as they’ve always been.
Draco brought his hands to her face and started wiping her tears slowly, while maintaining the eyes contact.
“Your eyes” she muttered.
“What about them?”
“They’re … Beautiful” she replied, and he smiled before pulling her into another hug.
She hugged him back instantly, feeling at peace with herself, the usual one she feels anytime she’s with him, just that it doubled this time.
“And, your smile is cute too, can you smile more often?” She asked as he stroked her hair.
“There’s hardly anything to smile about” he replied, and she broke the hug.
“You should create memories then” she said.
“Memories?”
“Yes, I’ll help you create the good memories you’ll always smile about” she replied.
“Fine” he said, and she suddenly went behind him.
The seven scars from the arrows are still glaring in dot-like forms, and her eyes widened.
She started touching the dots one by one, and Draco closed his eyes.
If only she’s aware of what she’s doing to him right now, her hands on his bare body is not a good idea, it’s tempting.
“When your back was bleeding the other time by the river, this was it… right?” She asked, still touching them.
Draco kept quiet, and she hiccupped.
“Is this because of me?” She asked.
“No” he lied.
“Don’t try to tell lies, Viola told me everything” she replied, and he faced her.
“Viola came here?”
“I had no money to buy a kit, I almost went mad when I took ten dollars to the pharmacy and was told it wouldn’t be enough to buy it, but she appeared and saved you, she even distracted the cops when you almost got caught, she removed the bullet and gave you blood” JoJo replied.
Draco kept looking at her.
“You told her to bring down my nude, right?” She said, and Draco gave her a long gaze.
“So tell me why you have these scars on your back, tell me what happened, tell me why you’re an assassin” she sniffed slowly, and Draco closed his eyes for a while.
When he opened it, he sighed.
“I can’t tell you why I’m an assassin yet”
“Why?, You’re from a rich family so it can’t be because of money, so why?, Is it revenge? Wait…is it connected to the girl in your locket?” She asked curiously, and he held her shoulders.
“I’ll tell you everything later, I promise” he said.
“Then can you tell me just one thing?, Your scars, are they because…. of me?” She asked.
He stared into her eyes for a while before speaking.
“Yeah, I was supposed to go on a mission when I saved you from the rapists, arrows were my punishment” he replied, and her eyes widened.
“What!”
“But don’t feel bad, I’m totally fine already” he replied, and when she remembered how he was bleeding so much by the river the other time, she started crying again.
“It must have hurt a lot, I’m very sorry knight, I’m so… sorry”
He smiled and wiped her tears with his thumbs gently.
“What did I tell you about crying?, Do you want me to go insane?” He said, and she started hiccuping.
“I just…I… I don’t want you to get hurt anymore” she said, and he smiled at her cuteness.
“I promise I won’t” he said.
She looked up at him, and he held her face.
“I’m an assassin, aren’t you scared of me?”
“I feel safe around you instead” she replied, and he smiled again for the uptenth time today before looking around her room.
“Nice room” he said shortly, and she pouted.
“Don’t even talk about it, what’s nice about this small hole?”
“Your mum?, Dad?” He asked.
“They’re not aware that you’re here” she replied.
“Then I have to go fast, need to go see my mum” he replied, and she rushed to her closet to get him something to wear, but she disposed her only sweatshirt already, all that’s left in the wardrobe are the long shirts she wears to bed.
She suddenly sighted his jacket, the one he covered her with that night.
She took it and rushed back to him.
“Here, wear this”
He looked at it and walked to her wardrobe.
He picked one of the long shirts instead, he put it on and buttoned up.
“That doesn’t look good enough” she said.
“But it’s yours, I like it” he replied, getting his phone from the bed.
JoJo smiled and dropped the jacket, then they left the room together.
Victoria was in the kitchen, so they weren’t caught in the act as they left the house.
They got to the front of the house and faced each other.
“Make sure you treat yourself, ok?” She said.
“Sure”
“And about the historical museums class…
“Let’s take it tommorow, I’ll teach you tommorow” he replied, and she smiled.
“I’ll call you”
“I’ll do it instead” he replied, and she waved as a bike stopped in front of the house.
The rider removed her helmet and it turned out to be Viola.
“Get on brother” she winked, and Draco mounted immediately.
“Bye crybaby, Draco’s button!” She winked at JoJo .
“Bye!” JoJo waved as she drove down the street.
She was smiling as she went back in.
Viola just finished setting breakfast on the dinning table.
No money for balanced diet like fried rice and chicken or pasta, they’ve never tasted macaroons or steak, the only thing they take is pie and custard since it’s the only thing Victoria can afford with her loans.
They take it morning and evening, JoJo only takes lunch when Victoria gets chanced to give her lunch money.
“You were all moody earlier” Victoria said as JoJo hugged her.
“But now I’m happy” she replied, and Victoria smiled before hugging her back.
“Should we open the door for the shameless duo?” Victoria asked as they broke the hug.
“Sure” JoJo replied and got a knife from the kitchen.
Victoria got the gum remover and they both started pouring it on the gum.
After pouring, they waited for three minutes before pushing the door open with their legs.
Ignatius and Mõ@nna came to view, Ignatius was smoking while Mõ@nna was pacing around.
“I’m gonna kill you both!” Ignatius thundered and made to attack them, but JoJo raised the knife on him, and he stopped moving.
“Take another step and I’ll end your Füçking life” she glared.
Mõ@nna got her bag and shoes, she rushed out of the house.
Ignatius smirked evilly.
“For what you both did, I’m gonna do something you’ll never forget” he said.
“You’ve done a lot, so anything you’ll do again is not new” Victoria replied, and he shut the door.
JoJo looked at Victoria, and they both stuck hands before walking to the dinning room for breakfast.
Immediately JoJo tasted the first spoon from the custard, Butter called, and she picked.
“Gawd, finally” he breathed.
“What?” She asked.
“I’ve been calling and texting since last night but you didn’t respond, I almost went crazy and…
“I didn’t check my phone” she interrupted, and he inhaled.
“Where are you?, Can we meet?”
“I’m not sure” she replied.
“Should I rather come to your place?”
“No let’s meet instead” she replied.
“I’ll text you” he said.
“Ok”
“I missed you” he said, and she blinked.
“Huh?”
“Let’s meet first” he replied.
“Alright” she replied and hung up.
Almost immediately, Snow’s call rang.
“Friend!!” She shouted.
“Am I even still your friend?, You didn’t pick my calls or reply my messages last night, do you know how worried I was?” Snow complained.
“You have the right to be mad at me, I’m so sorry baby, I was in an awkward situation last night” she replied.
“Is everything ok?”
“Yes, everything is back to normal”
“So….since we became friends we haven’t really had much fun, how about we go out together today, bills on me” Snow said, and JoJo spranged up.
“You’re not joking…are you?”
“I’m for real!” Snow shouted.
“OMG!!!, I’m definitely in!, I’m in!, I’m in!!!” JoJo screamed, leaving her breakfast to rush into her room.
“Your custard will get cold JoAnn!” Victoria shouted after her.
She got to her room and cut the call before backing the door.
“I’ve never really went on an outing, I can’t wait!” She gushed happily, and that’s when she remembered Butter.
“I’m meeting Butter too, Füçk!, How do I do this”
