Chapter Seventeen Crazy Weekend

The weekend was over, but the memories of all it's crazy escapades still remained marbled in the minds of those that wished to forget. It was once again the second day of the week. A monday morning precisely, and everyone had resumed with their busy lives. The school was reeling with noises and blooming with life, as the students wandered through the hallways.

Gentle slow footsteps echoed silently amidst the busy crowd. As Hugh casually strode past the overly excited teenagers. Unlike them, he preferred to remain his isolated abyss, where all he could hear was the nightly whispers of the dead and the scent of incense.

It is in human nature to evolve, and he was evolving. He was gradually letting himself be overwhelmed by his shadows. Sometimes he would find himself murmuring some strange incantatory words, that he had read from the books. Other times he'll be oddly quiet, almost as if he was in a trance. Life was getting more complex for him and the women in his circle.

He quietly walked past Billy whom was also not in his best of moods. After the incident in the garage, he started to realize his body was beginning to change. His mother called it puberty, but he knew it was something more. However he was still avoiding Olivia, since he couldn't bring himself to face her. not after all that had happened.

The bell for first classes went off and all the students hurriedly fled into their classrooms. During the music lessons Miss Evelyn kept stealing a few obvious peeks at Hugh. When her class was finally over. Arthur and Nola, the teachers favorites. Clustered around her to discuss on stuffs concerning the lessons.

He saw this as a chance to sneak out before she could take notice of him. But just as he was about heading out, she called on him.

"Mr Trail. A moment please."

He briefly froze momentarily as he reasoned to sort out why she wanted to meet with him.

«Why is she calling me?» He asked himself as he turned to meet her gaze. "Umm...I guess?"

"Darlings could you excuse us" She said while gesturing for the students to leave.

They meekly obeyed and quietly left the class, leaving only the both of them. Arthur however made sure to shoot a sharp warning glance at him before taking his leave.

"So tell me Hugh. What's been on your mind lately?" She asked nervously, her face a bit flustered.

"Whispers." He bluntly replied.

"What kind of whispers?"

She was utterly confused by his word. But he remained mute and refused to elaborate. As he quietly lowered his gaze while mumbling meaningless whispers to himself. But what he least expected from her, was a kiss. He was dumbfounded when she swiftly walked over and captured his lips with hers.

She kissed him for what seemed like eternity and unsurprising enough there was no form of struggle nor engagement from him. He just remained still, with his puzzled eyes.

She finally stopped the kiss and whispered to his ears. "Come to my place tonight. I'll make those whispers go away".

"But i have work to do." He innocently protested.

But then he felt her hand suddenly grab him by the crotch. As she slightly fondled it to get an erection from him.

"You'll visit tonight" He heard her whisper into his ear once more as she playfully fondled his dick.

Electric sparks flew threw his whole body as she slowly leaned closer and suckled on his earlobe.

"Six o'clock noon. Don't be late" She whispered seductively before suddenly leaving him.

She shamelessly swayed her hips graciously as she made her to the exit, while leaving him in a daise.

«What is this feeling? Could it be love?» He found himself wondering.

«It's called sexual harassment and rape. » Jeb suddenly muttered.

"What are you doin' here? He sharply queried.

«What kinda question is that!. I go anywhere you go. Besides I think it's more required now, since it seems like we've got an issue.»

"We agreed you won't bother me during school hours."

«Yes and the class is over»

"Fuck yo..." He halted his words when he heard a familiar voice ask.

"Hugh?. Who are you talking to?"

Selena was heading to the next lessons when she caught sight of him, chatting to himself in the music class, alone.

"Selena..wh..what are you doin' here?." He sharply asked with a slight shaky voice.

"I was just about goin' to the history class, before I saw you. Are you okay?"

"I...I dunno. I umm...."

«Tell her you were rehearsing. You dummy» Chided Jeb.

He was still in loss of words on what to say as Amy suddenly abruptly barged into the room and interrupted their little chat.

"Hey there you are. I've been looking all over for you" Said Amy as she suddenly leaped in and stole a kiss from him.

She pulled him by the collar and kissed him more passionately. Leaving Selena shocked and speechless, as lots of mixed emotions began to surface in her heart.

"I need to go." She mumbled huskily as she hurriedly fled the scene.

Amy unplugged her lips from his, as soon as she figured Selena had left. She adjusted her glasses and gave him a mischievous smile, before waving him goodbye and leaving as well. In truth, she couldn't figure out why she had just kissed him. All she knew was that she didn't want Selena anywhere next to him.

«Okay am starting to think this is not normal.» Said Jeb as he floated next to him.

"Why does my lips feel sore?" He asked rhetorically.

«Oh fuck hell. Why are you so dumb when it comes to shit like this»

Once it was school dismissal, Selena quickly stormed out from the school and into a black Jeep that was parked in the school premises. She sat down in the back seat and called out to her new driver.

"Kai!."

"Yes ma'am?."

"Play me the Beaver Boyz special."

"Okay ma'am" He humbly replied as he turned on the radio and switched it to her desired channel.

Kai had been employed as her new driver, but also as her secret bodyguard. Unknown to her, he had been spying on her all out activities. It was unsettling for her, whenever he was to be around her. He was always seen in black suits and gloves, covering most of his body. Even during his early morning trainings, he'd wear a black long sleeve shirt and gloves. She didn't know anything about him, except his name. But she was certain, he would be pretty good at his job.

"Hey. Do you think it's wrong for me to want to learn some self defense moves?" She asked, breaking the awkward silence.

"No ma'am. Self defense is for everybody." He responded calmly.

"Then teach me self defense" She blatantly requested.

He was momentarily quiet. Almost like he was picking his options carefully, just like as if he was avoiding to step on a mine.

"Okay I accept. I will teach." He finally replied in his not so English accent.

"Okay cool. Just lemme know when we're starting." She nonchalantly replied as her focus drifted back to her mobile phone.

The weather was a bit harsh and Billy was still a long way far from home. He had lost his bus money to some bullies and had to trek home again, with his best friend Eric. As they were walking, they kept chatting and telling jokes to each other. Then they both suddenly caught sight of a young lady who was being harassed by three ragged looking thugs.

"Fuck, I know them lil fuckers" Cursed Eric as he stared at them with disgust.

"Yeah let's take another cut. We don't want any troubles. Do we?."

"Bro, no way you be tryna let them have that chick!."

"What!. The hell you think I am" He asked in a confused and bewildered manner.

"Iffa got some of those yo powers. I'll be whooping them ass now"

"What?. Is this 'bout what I said earlier, i was kidding bro, I ain't no Omega ma..."

He suddenly halted in his words as they were both abruptly interrupted by one of the thugs.

"And who is you lil' boys?" Asked one of the ragged thugs, with the most laziest voice.

"We ugh, we're nobody. Just passing by?" He tried weathering the situation.

"My homie here can beat your three asses!" Eric suddenly shouted.

At that moment, he swore he could feel his pants getting wet. His feet was could and he thought he'd soon be passing out.

"The fuck is wrong with you Eric" He chided fearfully. But it was as too late as the thug shouted orders to his gang.

"Grab em boys!"

"Wait! wait! wait!!" He panicked as he shrieked backwards in anxiety.

But the two tarted looking guys adamantly continued to approach him, they were armed with metal batons and were very much ready to use it. As the first thug recklessly swung his baton towards him. He instantly blacked out, but on regaining consciousness he was astonished by what he saw. Both gangsters were on the floor with a bloodied face, bruised and still winching in pains.

Just then he realized he was still holding the last gangster by the neck. He glanced at the scared brunette, and could tell she was truly terrified.

"Fockin' frewk, puh mi duwn" Mumbled the gangster as he struggled with his words.

So he immediately released his hold on the already suffocating gangster and without a warning. The gangster fled the scene while cursing and swearing to take revenge. The lady quickly ran away as well, leaving only him and an overly excited Eric.

"Yo that was sick dude!. How did you do that!?" Eric squeaked in excitement.

He stared at the two beaten men and then at his bloodied knuckles, before mumbling. "I've got no idea buddy. No idea."
