"He's my boyfriend, hands off or I'll cut them"
_______

Boyfriend?

The girls couldn't help but murmur among each other. They slowly move away from Ethan knowing that was the best thing to do..

Annabelle walked towards him and hold his hand leading him out of the place.

"Boyfriend" Patricia said behind Jennifer whose breath was uneven. Patricia turn out to be right? Ethan is with Annabelle?

Liam and Selene lips stayed parted.

"I should announce ours too, right Baby?" Selene asked Liam and his eyes widened.

"We are not dating" he muttered.

"Oh really. Should I kiss you again before the students?" She asked and Liam swallowed

Getting to a quiet place Annabelle let go of Ethan and folded her arm without a word.

"Are you not going to say anything to me after you literally announced out relationship to the whole school?" He asked but Annabelle looked away.

"Why are you upset?" He asked, but yet.. silence.

"Fine I'm sorry I went too close to Jennifer and other girls" he said and she look at him. Still without a word. "And it won't happen ever again" he added and her lips curve up.

"Now that's it, you aren't mad at me anymore?" He asked and she nodded. "That was Pretty intense back there.. I actually thought you'd pull me out from them kiss me"

"I don't want them to see it" Annabelle said.

"Shy huh?" He asked.

"No I'm not"

"Hm, they are not here so we can kiss right?" He asked stepping close to her until her back hit the wall. Her face flushed.

"Why do you like to kiss so much?" She asked.

Ethan place his hand above her head and lean down. "Because it's your lips, I've got addicted to it the first day I made you feel butterflies" he said in a husky voice as he draw his lips closer.

She closed her eyes when his lips met with hers, responding to the gentle kiss. Ethan broke the kiss and then at stared down at her. Both having a smile on their face.

Jennifer saw the scene from a distance and tighten her fist beside her

Jennifer couldn't focus well in the dancing practice,  she kept making some silly mistakes.

Mr Georgia called out for her and she quickly went to meet her.

"I'm so sorry with my performance today, I got a whole lot of things in my head" she said.

"It's alright Jennifer, I understand how you feel but then.. i realize the school has nothing to hide. They decided to keep it a secret since they are trying to protect the name of the school" Mrs Georgia said.

"And you think that is right?" Jennifer asked getting a weird feeling.

"I don't baby but, I'd advice you to let this slide" Mrs Georgia said.

"But, my life is in danger right now and my father's too. Those people are dangerous" Jennifer said trying to keep her voice low.

"I know, but as far you don't hide anything from them.. then you are safe. Report to the police too and just don't let your guards down" She said and Jennifer nodded.

It was the closing hour as various students stepped out from the classes. Daniel thanks Annabelle for teaching him a course in which he had problem with.

Just outside the school, a car stayed around the corner as the man in it kept checking out for a strange student.

He finally spot a strange car and a tattooed man stepped down, he couldn't see the face. A frown appeared on his face when he spot a girl walking towards the man, she was the only one wearing a black uniform in which he found weird.

"Boss, I've found a girl who seems weird" The man said into his radio as he watched a tattooed guy open the car door for her to stepped in, but then another guy appeared.

Ethan.

He watch them speak for a moment and watch Annabelle followed Ethan instead of the tattooed guy.

"Is she really the one?" The guy in the car could help but ask himself. He could see Annabelle smiling as she walk with Ethan hands in hands. There's no way Lord Smith weapon will be hanging out with boys.

"Boss, I don't think she is the one" The guy said over the radio.

"Then why the fuck did you give me high hopes a moment ago?!" Voldemort yelled over the radio.

"Sorry boss" the guy apologized.

"Keep looking!" Voldemort yelled again. He seems to be getting impatient. He knows where his enemy lies and still doesn't know who she is?

The guy return his gaze back to Ethan and Annabelle. He took their pictures in case.

Meanwhile after Jennifer was done with her night shift. She branch to get some food knowing her father would be hungry.

Getting home, Jennifer sensed a strange aura but then open  door. Her eyes widened with terror as a scene played before her.

A man just punched her father on the face.

"Father!" She exclaimed and her eyes widened the more recognizing the men in the room.

Voldemort!

She turn to leave but another one stood before her. She could feel her heart beating so loud in her chest.

"Sweetie don't be scared" Voldemort said. He was sitting on one of the couch in the room. A cigar dangling at one side of his lips.

"I thought you said you'll let me be" Jennifer glared at him.

"Oh no sweetie, I told you I'd come for you once I find out you are lying" Voldemort said calmly, but Jennifer could sense the danger lacing in his voice.

"Is this how it's going to be huh?" Voldemort stood up on his feet and walked towards Jennifer's father. In the next moment, Voldemort stepped hard on his hand with his big booth and a loud scream left Jennifer's father lips.

"No! Don't hurt him!!" Jennifer yelled and tried to go to then but the man behind her held her in place.

"How about this, tell me the name of the girl who saved you that night or.. I'll kill your dad before you and have my men rape you" Voldemort said with a serious look on his face.

Jennifer breath wasn't steady as he watch the man step further on her father's hand. She could hear the crack sound along side with his scream.

"Should we do this the hard way then?" Voldemort asked raising his gun towards her father.

"Annabelle!!!" Jennifer yelled as tears slowly slip out of her eyes as she closed them. "Her name is Annabelle. She is my classmate" she added and Voldemort removed his leg from her father's hand.

"Hm, why did you protect her this way?" He asked walking towards Jennifer.

"I... I.. don't know" Jennifer replied truthfully as she look up to him. "What are you going to do with her?" She asked.

Voldemort raised his finger and brushed them on her cheek. "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" he spoke and the girl's eyes widened.
