Chapter 3

Alex arrived home from school. He sees Ken working on his reports and Elizabeth using a microwave.

"She's defrosting mince." Ken said while smiling.

"It's like alien technology, this thing." Elizabetth said while smiling.

Alex put his leather jacket onto the hanger before he go to his room.

"Oh, Alex. How's school? Did you got your grades" Ken asked as he wanders about Alex's grades.

"I got all As." Alex answers as he grab a drink. "I got into NYU."

"Oh, well, that's great, isn't it?" Ken asked while smiling. He offers a handshake. "Well done, son. NYU is a good choice for college."

"Yeah, Emily's going there too, so she wants to share a dorm room with me." Alex said to Ken.

"Ah, if that's what you want, go ahead." Ken said as he smiles.

"Thanks, dad." Alex said as he walks upstairs to pack for the weekend.

In his bedroom, Alex's packing up for the weekend and take a break. He was wondering about his relationship with Emily.

It was fall season, sophomore year. Everyone was excited for homecoming. People heard the rumors that Emily broke up with her ex named Oliver Jones.

For months Alex put his feelings for Emily on the back-burner as he watched her walks down the hallway.

Alex also have to listen to people to whisper in the halls about how 'cute she is'.

The night of homecoming came around and Alex sit down as he saw Emily running out to the hallway. He decided to go after her.

Emily rushed to the bathroom and sat on the floor, wiping away tears that fell down her cheeks. Alex find Emily crying.

"Are you okay?" Alex asked as he enters the bathroom.

"Yeah, my dad is mad at me for dump Oliver. I'm embarrassed to say I used to date him last year. He seems nice enough at first, but he turned out to be a bjg mistake." Emily said after wiping away tears from her cheeks. She turns around where she sees Alex and shocked. "Oh my god, Alex William! Oh my god."

"What?" Alex asked in confused.

"Sorry, I have this huge crush on you and I wanted to be your girlfriend so badly. I know that you're a nerd, but to me you're a hottie and incredibly cute." Emily said as she confessed to Alex.

"Wait, you love me?" Alex said astounded.

"Duh, look at you, you are incredibly cute." Emily chuckled. "Dance is kinda boring, isn't it?"

"Yeah, wanna go home?" Alex asked.

"Sure." Emily said as he takes her to his home. "My parents are out for the weekend, wanna stay with me?"

"Sure." Alex said as they walks out of the bathroom. They both walked into his car as they drives to Emily's house.

Alex carries Emily to her bedroom where she can take off her clothes and put on her pajamas. Alex fell asleep that night holding Emily tight, his arms around her waist and her head on his chest.

Back in the present, Alex arrives to pick Emily up for their weekend getaway. He knocks the door and sees Emily's father, member of Natural Selection organization and Pride County Sheriff named Joesph Pond.

"Evening, Mr Pond." Alex said while greets his girlfriend's father.

"Ah, Alex Williams, son of the president of the organization, here to take my daughter on a weekend getaway?" Joesph greets politely.

"Yeah, we'll be back on Sunday." Alex answers.

"That's fine." Joesph said as Emily walks downstairs with her suitcase. "You two have a nice weekend."

"Okay, dad." Emily said as she hops into Alex's car and drives off.

After they left. Joesph closed the door and shows his true colors. He hates Alex and thinks he's too good enough for Emily. He calls Ken on his phone.

"Ken, it's me. What's our next phase?" Joesph asked while talking on the phone, smiling evilly.

Flash forward to Biology class, One week later. Everyone are in class as Joesph and the two deputies enter the classroom.

"Apologies for barging in, but I want to warn the students. After school, you all must go home and pray. A demon has appeared last night, and practically murders Holly at our favorite café." Joesph said announcing there is a demon in rush.

Emily felt worried that the demon was actually Alex.
