"Hah Bennet you're here too. Did you come to see my princess?" he said looking at Damon with a smile.

"Princess?" he said turning to look at me.

Though I was still looking at Lucas, I felt his eyes on me.

"What are you doing here Lucas?" I asked showing him how angry I am to see him here. I thought that I would never see him again.

"You don't know? I told you that I wasn't gonna give up and that we were gonna be together again," he said his eyes losing focus.

I saw that Damon was surprised by the words because I haven't told him what my relationship with Lucas was.

"You're drunk Lucas just go home. Also, don't you think that we're going to ever go back to what we were before. That won't happen. Now go."

He fell on the floor. I didn't approach him even for a bit to help. Neither did Damon. Lucas then got back up and started walking towards me.

"Why? Because you have a new boyfriend now? Is that what you do? When a boy leaves you, you just find a new one? You use them like napkins, don't you?"

I clenched my fist praying for God to give me patience not to kill this man right here and right now. While God was busy giving me patience, he overlooked Damon and Damon punched Lucas and he fell back down.

"Shut your dirty mouth bastard!" he yelled at Lucas.

I was shocked, but knowing Damon he wasn't gonna stop and he was gonna punch again. So, I let go of the blanket I was wrapped in and run to him. I put my hand on his and mumbled,

"Don't. He's not worth it."

I could see that his green eyes were still angry, but his fist wasn't clenched anymore.

Blood started dripping from Lucas' lips. He got up, wiped the blood with his thumb.

"Hahah you only proved that I was right Bennet," he said laughing.

"Lucas leave. Right now!"

"I will princess, but remember my words, Bennet isn't right for you either. He always plays with girls and their feelings. Don't ever think that you'll be different for him. I know that for a fact," he said those words with a mysterious smirk.

With these words he left. And I started trembling. I just hoped that my fever hasn't gone up.

"Let's go inside," I said signalling Damon to follow me.

I wanted to bow down and take my blanket from the floor, as I left it there, but Damon did the same and our heads collided with each other.

"Ouch!" we screamed together and started laughing.

"You idiot! Why did you do that?"

"Me? I was just trying to be a gentleman!"

"You haven't been one. See what happens when you try to be. Ah my head hurts so much," I said putting my hands on my head.

"So does mine."

"It's okay, you're a guy and you should endure it. The other day it seemed like you were anyway."

I looked at him and he knew what I meant.

"Bailey are you okay?" I heard from the living room.

Meggy came running to the door.

"Oh hi Damon," she said waving her hand at him.

"Oh hi," he said with awkward face.

"You don't know her name, do you?" I said rolling eyes at him.

"I do. Of course I do, right Carmen?"

"Carmen? You didn't even get the first letter right. Her name is Meggy idiot."

Meggy was busy laughing at the name that he gave her.

"Don't mind him Meggy, I think he doesn't even remember my name, that's why he just keeps giving me stupid nicknames."

"It's not stupid and there's only ONE nickname and that's angel, which suits your appearance. The only problem with that nickname is that it doesn't suit your personality, it's pretty devilish."

I punched him in the stomach, as I did after our kiss.

"You just proved my point. By the way this punch made me feel so nostalgic," he said winking at me.

"I think I should just go home now," Meggy said feeling that she might disturb us.

But she wasn't that's the point. Nothing was happening anyways. After his stupid comment my cheeks were getting redder and redder and I realized that I had to do something.

"No no Meggy stay please. I'll just talk to Damon and come back to you. We still have things to talk about."

"Okay. Then I'll just wait for you in the living room."

"Come on Damon. Let's go upstairs."

"Where are we going?" he asked while we were on the stairs.

"To my room."

"Oh to your roooom," he said with a smirk that I could feel it though he was behind him and I couldn't see him.

I turned and looked at him with a deadly glare.

"Do you wanna go back to where you came from?"

"Not really. I wanna talk to you."

"Really? Coz' it wouldn't be hard for me to kick you out."

"Stop it angel, you know too well that you want me here too. "

Instead of going upstairs I started going down the stairs.

"Okay okay I was kidding. Let's go to your room."

"Then no more stupid expressions, though I know you can't help it, it's part of your personality."

We went to my room and I sat on my bed.

"Uhm..."

"You can come and sit with me, it's okay. Don't pretend like you're shy or something."

He sat in front of me on the bed.

"What did you want to talk to me about?" I hinted that he has to be the one to start the conversation, as he was the one who came here.

"Have you and that jerk dated before?"

"I'm pretty sure that it's not what you came to talk to me about. There's something else, right?"

"Answer my question angel. Did you or did you not?"

"I don't think that question concerns you."

"But it does."

"How come?" I said not understanding their connection except for the old enemy part.

"Well, I like you and if he dated you then I have to know about that don't you think?

"Nope, I don't agree. Firstly, because YOU like ME, but I don't like YOU. We're not dating or something. Secondly, because though you say that you like me you don't mean it, you have a girlfriend and you humiliated me in front of your friends and Jenna."

"Well, it's not a problem anymore because Jenna and I broke up, well I mean I broke up with her. But you still have to tell me about that dating thing you had with that jerk. I have so many questions."

"Woah. Stop right now. Yes, we dated, but you won't know anything else about our relationship. That's all I'll tell you."

"That's really bad. You don't really have a taste. Look at me. You should like guys like me not him."

I made a disgusted face.

"Are you kidding me? So you tell me to like a guy who makes fun of a girl in front of his friends and his ex? A guy who's as narcissistic as you? No thank you."

"About that...I'm sorry..."

"What did you say?" I said not believing his words. He's apologizing? Wow. It's the second time I hear him apologize and I feel really good.

"You heard what I said," he said looking at me in disbelief.

"No I didn't," I said thinking how good I am at acting.

"You did. I won't be fooled angel."

"Why did you do that?"

"Did what?"

"Say that I'm not the one you like if you're saying that you like me. Why?" I said changing my tone to a serious one. I was really interested in the answer.

"I don't know..." he said and I felt like he wanted to change the topic. I knew he wasn't going to answer me anyways so I changed the topic myself.

"By the way why aren't you going to meetings with Matt? You have a groupwork to complete and he can't do that all alone."

"I don't want to."

"What's that supposed to mean? If the work was individual, it would be okay for you not to do that, as it's only yours. But in this situation, by not doing anything you're letting down my friend."

"Aww somebody's worried about her James Bond," he said smiling like a girl who's in love.

"Damon!"

"Okay okay angel. I'm just joking around. I'll help your James Bond, but on one condition."

"What's that?" I asked being afraid of hearing his answer.

"Go on a date with me."

"What? No! No way!"

"Okay then, tell your friend I'm going to continue ignoring his calls and I won't do my part of the work," he said getting up from the bed.

"No wait," I can't believe I'm saying this, "I'll go on a date with you. But it's gonna be only ONE date. No more!"

"As you wish. YOU are gonna be the one to want more honey," he said winking at me.

"Ew."

Matt won't be happy to hear about this.
