The Lost Demon
Chapter 5
When I awoke at my house that following day, I didn't want to get up.
"Dawn, you need to go to school. The principal called me saying if you skip today you're expelled." Duke told me when I asked him if I could stay home.
Now I'm walking down the street towards the school.
"Hey, demon girl!" A voice called when I reached the school.
It was Trisha, some snobby junior. "What happened to your arm? You slice it too deep?" She sneered while her "flock" laughed.
I rolled my eyes and walked inside. Trying to avoid eye contact, I went straight to my block one class. The bell rang.
"Alright class, we have a new student today. I'd like you all to welcome him.
Come on in." Mr. Andrews called.
The door opened and I gasped.
It was Damu!
"What is he doing here?" I thought. All the girls started giggleing.
"Hello, my name is Damian. Pleased to meet you all." Damu bowed.
"He's using a fake name? That's smart." I thought, then my heart stopped as he looked at me.
"Alright Damian, please find a seat." Mr. Andrews said.
Damu walked right up to me and sat beside me.
As class went on, I whispered to him.
"What are you doing here?"
"I told you, I don't give up so easily." Damu smiled.
Suddenly a book slammed down on my desk, I looked up and Mr. Andrews was standing over me with an annoyed face.
"Would you like to teach the class Dawn?" He asked.
"No sir. I'm sorry." I blushed. Everyone started laughing.
Mr. Andrews scowled and went back to his desk.
Damu looked over at me through shrouded eyes.
When class was over, I walked as quickly out of the room as possible.
"Hey! Dawn! Wait up!" Damu called.
I pretended I didn't hear him.
Luckily a group of girls ran over to him and started asking him questions.
I rounded the corned only to run into Jaden!
My heart pounded.
"You!" He sneered.
"Um... Hi..." I whispered and tried backing up, he grabbed my shirt and hanked me down.
"I heard Prise is still hospitalized, no one to stop me then." Jaden went to punch me.
I yelped.
Suddenly, Damu came up and punched Jaden off of me.
"Don't touch her!" Damu sneered.
Jaden looked up at Damu with confusion in his eyes.
"What new guy? You're actually defending this freak?"
"Don't you dare call her that! You're more of a freak then she is! What kind of guy hurts girls?!" That made the audience gasp in agreement.
Jaden looked around then growled and ran.
I looked up at Damu.
"Thank you.... Damian." I whispered.
He looked down at me, all the anger in his eyes vanishing.
"No need to thank me Dawn." He leaned down and helped me up.
"I told you, I like you." He whispered into my ear and kissed my cheek making everyone gasp in shock. To my surprise, I blushed.
"No! Don't blush! I love Prise! No blushing!" I said to myself.
Damu took my hand.
"I'll lead you to your next class, and I'll make sure no one hurts you." Damu smiled and clutched my hand.
As we began to walk, people were looking at him and me, still in shock.
