The smile that curled on my lips was huge.
"You talk of them as if they are people." I shook my head, my smile being even more evident.
He looked at me, his beautiful grey eyes, that he had stolen from the sky glittering. He smiled then, the light...

Leo's Pov:
Just one day.
Just one fucking day.
It's all I ask.
However it seems not only the universe is against me, but this entire house that, by the way, should be scared shitless of me.
Yet it seems that my status has either dropped or people take me for a fool.
I don't particularly care if Chase has hurtled down the stairs and split his head open.
Yet here I am.
Sitting by the side of his bed, waiting for the stupid idiot to wake up, so that I can murder him myself.
I don't care how he fell, whether he was running for his life, but I just care that people thought it important enough to inform me.
I looked down stonily at him.
He looked quite peaceful for a man that had apparently wacked his head on concrete straight on.
I guess his bandaged head and apparent fractured skull were proof of the idiocy and he hadn't damaged his brain as Charles had concluded 10 minuets ago.
I mean he'd need to have a brain to be able to damage it and in Chase's case he often liked to place his brain somewhere else and pick it up at the most random times possible.
Like, for instance, when I had told him I liked his sister.
If he had't decided to use his brain then, then perhaps he'd not have a fractured skull today.
I shrugged.
It worked in my favour anyways.
Chase would have to be bedridden for a couple of days just to further check on his condition and make sure he was truly ok.
I grinned. What a shame indeed.
Maybe I could actually spend some time with Aria instead of having his annoying ass around.
Just then the door slammed open.
I turned to see a very amused looking Aria biting her lip to stop herself from laughing. Her green eyes alight with mischief.
"Did he really slip down the stairs?" She wheezed.
I nodded, just looking at how much she was finding the whole situation so damn funny.
"Oh my god." She clapped a hand over her mouth "What an idiot."
I watched as her shoulders shook with every laugh she stifled.
I loved it when she laughed like that.
At the small mundane things that made her so damn happy.
She finally stopped laughing and made her way over to the bed on the other side of Chase. She raised an eyebrow up at me and then winked.
I rolled my eyes.
"When will he wake up?" She asked.
I sighed. "Soon. Apparently he fractured his skull."
She snorted. "How the hell do you even fracture your skull by falling down the stairs? How did he even fall down the stairs?"
I was just about to answer when Chase stirred awake.
Aria and I both eyed each other.
"Ollie?" Aria carefully spoke.
Chase groaned as he turned his head to the sound. He gave a soft smile to her as she looked down at him not impressed at all.
"Aria, do not cry, I am not dead." Chase wistfully told her.
"Cry?" Aria asked bewildered.
"I know how hard it must seem for you to see me in this state-"
"Oliver I do not care. How much of an idiot do you need to be to have to have broken your own skull falling down the stairs." She spat.
Chase blinked, shifted his head to look at me and with one glance at my scowl he looked up at the ceiling.
"I wasn't being an idiot. I was running away to save my life." He explained.
I crossed my arms. "Oh really? Who? and even if you were running away how could you have broken a bit of your skull?"
Chase rolled his eyes. "I can't really remember, but I know I was running away from someone and then i was going down the stairs and my footing slipped and everything was spinning and then I kissed-"
He stopped completely.
Every part of his body froze.
Aria and I looked at each other again. Our eyes widening as we heard his last word.
Kissed?
Who the hell did he kiss?
Aria's face lit up a little. "Wait. Wait. WAITTTT."
She placed a hand over her mouth and looked down at Chase.
"It was Athena wasn't it?" She smacked his shoulder. "She was the one who bought you here, she seemed distracted as well. YOU KISSED HER? OH MY GODDDDDD."
Aria clapped her hands together and squealed something about finding Vivienne to tell her the news.
I shook my head as she practically skipped out of the room.
She left just as quickly as she had came. I hadn't even gotten a chance to talk to her.
Then i looked back at Chase.
His eyes seemed bleak and his whole body looked taut.
"Chase? You alright?" I asked out of courtesy.
He slowly looked at me, terror in his eyes visible.
"I didn't kiss Athena. I don't even know who Athena is." He blinked.
I scrunched up my eyebrows. If not Athena then who?
"What do you mean?" I scoffed.
"I mean the person I kissed was NOT her." He shot back. I could see visible fear on his face.
"Then who-?" I sighed out.
"Leo." He breathed out.
"What?" I impatiently asked
"I think-" He started.
"Chase I swear to fuck I will murder you if you waste any more of my time-"
"I KISSED ANGEL." He blurted out.
The silence in the room was so heavy that I knew that Chase knew if he made one sound I'd murder him.
There was no way he had just said what he did.
No way.
I swallowed.
I looked down at him.
He looked up at me fear written across his face in permanent marker.
