Chapter Five

—Zoë Wesley—

That jerk! Why did he kiss me and asking me random things? But he felt sad when I scold at him. I just don't get the whole thing. I slammed the door of my room and dropped my bag on the floor and next dropping my body on the bed.

'Zoë, you okay?' Keynes asked knocking on the door.

'No! I need to be alone.'

'I heard that a guy kissed you at school. Should I kick his ass?' he opens the door and leans on the frame. I laugh and that makes me less intimidating.

'I don't know. I'm just a little tired.'

'So, who is this asshole?'

'I don't even know his name.' I roll over my bed kicking my shoes off.

'Tsk!' he shook his head.

'But the weird part is he called me mate.' I told him and closed my eyes. 'He must misunderstand it. I am nobody's mate.' I looked at his expression. It was lightened in some way. I sat up and scratched my head.

'I will just check our dinner.' He said hooking his thumb on the side.

That was weird. It's like he's avoiding something or lightened something. I stare at the ceiling and sighed for the fifth time. I close my eyes and the kiss flashed in my mind. It was so torrid at first and when it becomes passionate I feel like in heaven. I never had been kissed. It was funny to think that my first kiss becomes so torrid, lustful, and passionate. There's no doubt that he was a great kisser.

'Zoë... dinner is ready!' Keynes calls.

I let out a last sighed and jumped off from bed. I run to the dinner table and smell the Filipino food he prepared. He knows that I love Chicken Adobo. It was tasty and delicious. He even cooked rice where it is matched on the adobo.

'Eat a lot then burn the fats tomorrow.' I grimaced at him and stabbed the fork on the piece of chicken and blowing it and bring it to my mouth.

'Hmmm!' and I jumped. 'So, delicious!' I take my seat and put one cup of rice on my plate. Then I started putting the chicken on my plate too.

'Hey, easy Princess.' He told me and he sat and started eating too.

'By the way tomorrow night we are going to a party at my friend's house.'

'Sure, as long as you are with your cousins and friends.' He told. Chase and Harris is my cousin while Gab and Sam are my childhood best friends back to our Kingdom.

I arrived at school by driving my big bike, my cousin Chase waves at me with those sparkling smiles. I walk to him and asked him how he is.

'Well, this Gab is flirting with Grace. He found his mate yesterday and she ignored him. Then, he tried his best to make her jealous.' I get mad. I don't know why.

I rushed on the corridor and saw Gabriel's arms around the girl. I called him many times but those big headphones make him deaf. So I looked at the dude who is disposing of his bottle and I grabbed it from him.

'Thanks.' I told him and I throw the bottle directly to Gabriel's head. Whoo! Jackpot! He turns his head around removing his arms around his bitch. He looked annoyed and I am more looked annoyed. I grabbed his collar and glanced at the girl. The girl didn't seem like Grace the bitch. She was an angel. 'You are flirting with others?'

'Waoh! Are you jealous?' he asked.

'No! Are you hurting your mate?' I asked him mad. He shook his head like a five-year-old who is accused by breaking the vase. I sighed and stepped back. He fixed his collar and put his arms around the confused girl.

'This is Rebecca, my mate. Love this is Princess Zoë.' I looked at her and smiled. I pushed Gabriel away and faced the girl.

'Hi, my name is Zoë. Not Princess Zoë.' I told her extending my hand. She giggles and took my hand.

'Rebecca.' She smiles.

'Okay, so I need to go, and please don't reject each other. I might die...' I told her with sad eyes. She got confused. I shouldn't say those words. 'Okay, bye...' then I wave my fingers at them and went to my classroom. Stupid Chase playing on me!

When I enter the class, I saw this jerk talking to Yves. I clenched my jaw as he stalks his eyes on me. I take my seat and ignore him. He stood in front of me and stares down at me. I looked at the window while my arms are crossed at each other.

'I'm sorry.' He said sincerely. 'But I'm not sorry for doing It.' he grins cockily. I sneer at him.

'Go away!' I demand. He seemed hurt on what I said but what did I know? Nothing! So he should get out of my sight. He did and sat on his seat which is at my back. Goosebumps ran down from my nape to my spine.

In the cafeteria, I didn't take a chance to glance in his direction. Gab and his girlfriend slash mate are too flirty at each other and that leaves us out of place.

'These guys disgust me.' Sam whispered in my ear. I giggle and agreed to it.

After the class, I immediately went home to look for my outfit at the party. I choose the dress with a long sleeve and it was above my knee. The cut of laces down is like waves and I like it. Then I put a belt on my curve to hug the dress. I curl my hair and put dark makeup. Then, I wore my boots. Great!

'Keynes!'

'I'm here,' I followed his voice. He's sitting on the sofa waiting for the time. 'I will go with the other guys to patrol around the town boundary. Take care of yourself and text me every hour.'

'Yes, dad.' I mock and giggle.

'You look great by the way.'

'Thanks...' I smiled sweetly. I put my phone in the pocket of my dress. Harris beeps outside and he is already waiting.

'Don't make out with anyone at the party!' he added where I am already outside the door.

'Okay. Dad!' I giggle again.

Harris opens the door for me and I hopped in. At the back of the truck are Sam, Chase, and Gab with guitars and drum sets.

At the outside of the house, the party is a wild, noisy, and very teen party.

Teenagers kept coming inside. I help the boys grabbed their guitar and the drum set to the stage at the patio. Harris settled his drums while the others are fixing the components.

'You did it!' Terence greets me.

'I did it! I am with the hunks.' I told him hooking my thumb to my cousins and best friends. Terence giggles and he pulls up his shirt showing his six packs abs.

'Am I not a hunk?' I laugh at him and punch him teasingly. He winced like I had punched him hard. 'Ow! You punch like a beast!'

'Sorry, did I punch you a little hard?' I asked him. He drops that silly face acting like his hurt and grins playfully.

'No, you didn't. But you punched our Alpha with a bruise on his face.' I flinched and furrowed. I punched their Alpha. 'Anyway... good luck!' and he messed my hair. I fixed it and walk back to the stage confused.

'Good evening losers!' Gab shouts on the microphone and the people cheer lifting their drinks. 'Now we are making your night rocks!'

'Blue Moon! Blue Moon!' they cheer. Then I hold the microphone and the drums rolls, together with bass and electric guitars. Gab is holding the lead guitar and Chase is the guitar and Sam is the bass and Harris is the drummer. I breathe and sing.

There was a time in my life

When I open my eyes and there you are...

You were more than a dream,

I could reach out and touch you Boy, that was long ago

There are some things that I guess I'll never know...

When you love someone you got to learn to let them go...

When I dream about you, that's when everything's all right

You're in my arms. Here next to me, forever

When I dream about you, Boy you never go away

Just close my eyes wait for my dreams

Cause I still love, loving you

They cheer and shouts when I sing the chorus 'When I dream about you...' and it makes me smile.

How can I get you to see that I'm falling apart since you've been gone?

I can never be sure I could ever let go your love is much too strong.

There are some things that I guess I'll never know...

When you love someone you got to learn to let them go...

When I dream about you, that's when everything's all right

You're in my arms. Here next to me, forever

When I dream about you, Boy you never go away

Just close my eyes wait for my dreams

Cause I still love, loving you

There are some things that I guess I'll never know...

When you love someone you got to learn to let them go...

When I dream about you, that's when everything's all right

You're in my arms. Here next to me, forever

When I dream about you, Boy you never go away

Just close my eyes wait for my dreams

Cause I still love, loving you

They applauded and cheers on us. There are few who whistles. I breathe and my heart is pumping fast.

'This is Zoë our vocalist for now on!' Gabriel announced.

Terence brings a serving tray with five shots and he gave it to us. We drank it at the same time and I got a bit dizzy. We play another song in the title of Wild and Free. Gab and I duet while singing it. Then someone had requested a song with a message.

'May I request the song Baby Blue Eyes of A Rocket to the Moon for my Soul Mate, Zoë.' I stopped and also them. I looked around the people they just cheer.

Yves give me a chair to sit on the stage and gives me three red roses. I am confused and I don't know what's going on. What the hell is going on? Gab only uses an acoustic guitar while singing the Baby Blue Eyes.
