I pushed him, enough for him to fall from the bed. He looked at me as I look back at him covering myself.

"I-"

"Didn't you wanted this?" he asked getting up from the floor.

I look down clenching my fists on the sheets.

"I-I thought you're not like them," I cried.

He didn't answer but just stood there.

"I-I thought your.. someone," I stuttered.

He reminded me of my brother, they look a lot like I said he moves and talks like my brother.

"I'm sorry..." He muttered.

I look up at him in shock, He's... He's crying.

"I'm so sorry... This is all my fault if I didn't let you go out of the room. You wouldn't suffer from this," He cried looking up the ceiling.

He wipes his tears using his wrists, I stared at him. It's the first time that I see him cry. I stayed quiet sitting, staring at him.

"I failed to protect you," He cried.

I snapped out of my fantasy touching his hand.

"Hey," I smiled softly.

He didn't look at me.

"It's not your fault, your okay... Come here," I pat his pack pulling him to my arms.

I lay him down on the bed cuddling him. He fell asleep crying on my chest, I hum playing with his hair leaving a kiss on his forehead before drifting off.

I woke up from a vanilla scent, I open my eyes seeing Mia smiling at me warmly.

"Good morning, did you sleep well?" She asked sipping some coffee.

"Yeah just headache, why are you up so early? Are you okay?" I asked worriedly.

She smiles patting my back.

"I'm alright, breakfast will be here with some medicine." She smiled.

I nod looking at her.

"About last night..." I mumbled.

She chuckles shaking her head.

"It's okay, you need to cry sometimes." She smiled.

I just nod smiling at her warmly, we both eat together as I check the time it was 6.09 AM.

"The principal called you but I answered it, he told me to tell you that you have to tour a transferee since I'm excused and I need to finish some work for next month," She broke the silence.

"Is it a he? or she?" I asked.

She looks at me bursting in laughter.

"What?? I'm just asking," I exclaimed eating.

"Since when did you become picky? You always volunteer to tour new students, It's my job but you keep on insisting. So when did you became picky?" She asked wiggling her brows.

I scoff flicking her forehead, pouted caressing her forehead.

"You tease, just eat so I can give you, your medicine." I scolded her.

"How about a kiss?" She teased.

I shake my head.

"No, stop thinking about it... Finish your food, you pig." I said sternly.

"Mean," She mumbled finishing her soup.

She finished her food as I took some medicine for my headache and her medicine too. I pour some water on the glass giving her the medicine helping her to drink some water.

"You okay?" I asked her.

She nods cutely making me tsk.

"You worry me all the time, I'm going to take a shower now. I will be back after the tour if you need something call the maids-"

"Okay okay, I already know it... Go and take a shower," She exclaimed.

I shake my head walking into the bathroom, after a few minutes I change into my uniform walking out of the house after checking her.

I arrive at the school gate getting out of the car signing the driver to wait for me. The principal welcomed me as I saw a boy, tsk for sure he will give Mia trouble. He looked at me smiling.

"Clyde, this is Mr. Fox, Mr. Fox, this is Mr. Smith our first elite student," The principal introduced me.

I nod as he bows at me.

"Nice to meet you, Zayn Fox." He smiled.

I nod as we began to walk. I began to tour and talk since he must understand the school and its history.

"Hey bro, can I ask you something?" He spoke.

I roll my eyes looking at him.

"Yeah," I said shortly.

He pulled out a picture lending it to me, I looked at the picture and it was... Mia.

"Do you know her? I've been looking for her everywhere," He asks.

Why does he have a picture of her? Is he the one who made the rumor? I look at him frowning.

"Why do you have this? And why are you looking for her?" I ask protectively.

"Chill dude, I'm just looking for her... She looks so beautiful, what's her name? or do you have her number?" He asked pulling out his phone.

I crossed my arms looking at him sternly.

"Why would I tell you? And this is a tour, not getting to know each other if you don't have questions or clarification. I will go now, enjoy the rest of the day." I respond walking away.

What he said made me stop?

"Hermia? Hermia is her name, right? A Fierce sounds interesting." He chuckled.

I look at him darkly.

"What do you want from her?" I growled.

"I want her... 𝑰 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒐 𝒃𝒆 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒆,"

I froze on my spot clenching my fists.

"Mia is not going to be yours or anyone, no one owns her but herself," I exclaimed angrily.

"You sound in love with her," He chuckled.

I stood there looking at him, am I really in love? There's something in me, I feel butterflies when I'm around her. I just... I sigh in annoyance looking at him directly.

"If I see you get near her, I won't hesitate to hire someone to kill you." I threaten him.

He chuckled.

"Is Mr. Smith threatening me?" He playfully asks.

I chuckle back walking back to him, I look at him... I was even taller. I lean down his ear.

"𝑰𝒕 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒓𝒖𝒆,"

I leaned back seeing catching him gulping. I walk away tsking as I get in the car. The driver drove back to the house making me smile.
