Darkness…
Light…
Darkness…
Light…
Yawn~ I slowly opened my eyes to a new day and noticed something warm beside me. I shifted a bit and turned to see a woman smiling in her sleep. I raised a brow and tried to remember what happened last night.
I went to the last Summer Party in INDIGO, met some friends, drank as much as possible…
“HEY! It’s the last night of my favorite season…cut me some slack… Hmm…after that…kissed some girl…someone talking about business opportunities……drank some more booze…wine… Wait a minute…”
I scratched my head. “Rewind… After kissing…talking… BINGO!”
I looked back at the red head on my bed. “Yup, she’s the girl who took me away from the talking part. What was the talking part again? Argh!”
I slowly scoot off the bed – careful not to wake her up. Girls are fussy about being left behind in bed after a night of...*cough* friendly banter. Well, she should expect as much…after all, no woman in their right minds sell themselves short. “This one’s a classic Wham, Bam, thank you Ma’am!” I chuckled to myself as I recount the events last night but that’s another story. And yeah…no minors allowed in my head…unfortunately.
Stretching my limbs I hurriedly walk to the shower. A bath is needed…especially after doing it with someone…JUST someone. “Damn! I don’t even know her name…” I blinked. “Whatever…” I slowly massaged the shampoo on my scalp and empty my mind as the shower slowly wakes up my body from the sleep. I smoothed my long jet black hair and rinsed myself. “Another semester, huh? “
As I got out of the shower I took a glance at the clock. I still got an hour before my usual take off…no need to hurry myself. I leisurely got out wearing nothing but a towel around my hips. “Classic? Usual…really… I mean, everybody loves seeing me naked. There’s the proof on my bed right now.” I prepped black coffee and walked to the wide windows overlooking HADES. The warmth helps in keeping my temperature stable and the scene… Beautiful Acacia trees line the pathway to the campus. It stops just a few kilometers outside my land though… “Damn that school and its stupid rules.”
“Abaven?”
I looked back to the bed where a very naked red head is now sitting up. I merely waited for her to find me… She stood up and walked about. I hid myself in the shadow of the curtain. As she stood beside me by the window, she sighed and started crying. “Pathetic.”
“Why? Why the hell did he leave me…? I thought he loves me…”
The words came out muffled and it’s almost comical as she was dressed in nothing and basking under the sun’s rays. “Love? I just met you last night, bitch…” My eyebrows twitched and I can feel my blood boil at the audacity. “Ambitious slut!” I shook my head. And then the bawling came… I always hate girls who cry so much. “My mother cried…when I killed her.” I immediately shut that memory down.
I stayed within the shadow, staring at this woman’s crying face until she left my apartment. I reappeared and changed into a slightly formal suit. “Time to shine…” I took the fedora hat hanging at the back of my door and slipped on my Berlutis and headed for the garage.
Slid into my newly bought Aston Martin DB9… I don’t particularly like cars. If you ask me, anything will do. But I bought it just because…she likes ‘em… Sigh~ The things I do for women.

As I entered through the gates, I can hear women scream their adoration for me.
“It’s Abaven!”
“OMG, it’s HIM!”
“I think I’m going to faint!!!”
This daily routine usually continues till I reach the safety of the classroom…but today is the first day high. I stayed in the corridors longer than necessary to entertain my beloved fans – receiving hundreds of complements about how they adore my hair and my beauty while I stood and accept their worship.
“Abaven, you’re so handsome… What’s your secret?”

I humor them…always. Besides, their stupidity keeps me sane. What was that they say again? The strong shall live and the weak shall die? I like that. And if there’s anything that my nine brothers taught me, it’s to survive.
I smiled at them. Smiling keeps them at bay. Smiling makes them think they’re important…which leads to vulnerability. Keep them happy and you’ll get what you want. But it does not work on everyone…certainly not to her. Yes…that’s her. I caught sight of Fallon Altair briskly walking to the assembly hall, her sandy orange hair let down. “Hey, Fallon!” I called out but was only greeted by a glare as she disappeared into the room full of students. I smiled to myself. What would it take to make her smile? I mean, I’ve bought cars, clothes…shoes… She’s a rich woman… It’s no wonder nothing seems to impress her.

How ironic. What a downfall! Here I start my day filled with confidence and with perfect strides…but when it comes to her, I suddenly feel so unsure.
It’s not only our class difference… She’s an Alter after all…
“Abaven…why so sad all of a sudden?”

The question brought me back to reality. I gorgeously smiled at the brunette. “Sad? Abaven never feels that as long as you’re here.” I answered, putting an arm around her shoulders. “Why don’t we go to the assembly hall now?” The crowd agreed and escorted me to the said room.
