Chapter 2 : Did my life jinx me ?

Luke point of view

Life couldn't be even more boring. Thinking about it, makes me exhausted. I was at this party and didn't even know most of them. There was a reason I hated these business parties. But then I couldn't not go, because my father keeps saying that I need to know to develop 'connections' with people. I was just standing while my parents were chatting with someone. I look around and see a guy who was sitting at a corner. I turn a little to have a clear view. From the look of it I could say, he looked like he didn't like it as well. And he was alone there and I wouldn't mind giving some company. I smile and decide to walk up to him.

I was about to take a step in his direction, but my father called me. I take a look at him and see him looking in some other direction. I contemplate and decide to go to my father. I huff and walk towards him. He spoke to someone and introduced me. I greet them trying to give a good impression. I free myself from them and search for him, but he wasn't there in the place anymore. I look around in hope to see him, but it seems like he was not in this hall anymore I sigh feeling irritated and decided to walk away from that place.

Since there is no more purpose of me staying there I go to the bar and sit there drowning myself with drinks. I look around while taking a gulp of my drink which was numbing my senses and giving me peace a little by little. I kept glancing around while drinking and I suddenly stop at the familiar face. He was sitting all alone, once again. I smirk looking at him. I could feel his gaze land on me. I could see that he was examining my face. I look down and smile to myself.

Third person point of view

Luke wanted to approach Leo, since he found him interesting. He wanted to the moment he laid eyes on Leo. And he decided to do just that. So he walked with his glass to the table where Leo was. Leo watched as Luke approached his table. Leo's eyes traveled all along till he saw the guy in front of him now. Luke sat in front of Leo and saw the confusion Leo's eyes held. Leo was confused at why some stranger sat at his table. His knitted eyebrows told it all. Luke smiled at Leo's confused expression. Leo couldn't help but think about why his life was playing tricks on him now. Leo sat back and raised his eyebrow at Luke.

" Why are you here alone ? " Luke asked as he saw the expression on Leo's face. Leo just looked away and sighed. He had enough of it until now and now this guy. He thought about how his day turned this way. " Who are you? And why do I have to answer you ? " Luke smirked nodding his head. " True though. But if you don't want to answer with your mouth ". Luke leaned forward over the table and moved closer to Leo. Leo could only look at Luke with wide eyes as Luke's face came closer in front of his eyes. " Why don't you answer with your body ? " Leo could have punched him right there, but he held it in.

What was this guy thinking ? Leo could only clench his teeth. He pushed Luke away and saw him smirk as he sat in the chair with his gaze fixated on him. Fury was clearly visible in Leo's eyes. He was not willing to deal with Luke anymore. He just grew agitated because he was here for some peace, but it looks like there is no way he can find it. So he would rather be alone in his room. Luke enjoyed watching Leo so much. He just found Leo's fierceness even more interesting. How could he just let him go? Leo was about to walk away. As he got up from the chair, he heard Luke. " Are you afraid ? " Even if he was angry, he couldn't help it.

He stopped and sat back again. " No ". He replied as calmly as he could. He could see the mocking expression on Luke's face and chose to ignore it. Leo felt that there was no point in giving his attention to that guy. Luke saw that his drink was almost over, so he ordered one for Leo and himself as well. Leo refused to take it and was stubborn. He was feeling exhausted now. " What do you want ? " Leo was vexed with him. " You already know ". Leo rolled his eyes and ran a hand through his hair. He has had enough of this guy annoying him. " Go find someone else if you feel so horny ".

He walked away after those words. He was clearly annoyed. What a day for him. Leo couldn't help but think like that. He called his driver to pick him up. Luke wanted to chase him but Leo was out of his sight in seconds. Luke walked out as well after settling the bill. He went out and searched for Leo. He checked the place and then walked out. He then took the elevator and went to the parking lot, but then he didn't find him anywhere. He didn't know how he has missed him. It was just sad that he just let him slip away. He sighed and glanced around once again. It looked like he really missed him. He shook his head and went to his own car.
