"I know we broke up, but.., " he whispers in my ear, trailing his finger lightly along my arm. He places a soft kiss on my collarbone, making a shiver course through me.
He tilts his head so he's staring straight into my eyes. His pupils dilate as...

Dove's Pov
I had two babies at my lunch table.
While Elliot was complaining about his boyfriend's change of attitude after he came out as gay, Fawn was complaining about Zyair not replying to her messages.
"We conversed last night, but suddenly he stopped replying, " She pouts, dipping her chicken in her sauce.
"Do you think I shouldn't have said I was gay?" Elliot asks, resting his head on his hands.
My mind drifts off to Gray and last night's event. He didn't come home, and he wasn't in school either. I knew he was fine when Zyair texted me, but I couldn't help but worry.
Last night proves the rumors about him being a Cager was true. He had killed a man without batting an eyelash, and I couldn't help but wonder the number of people he must have killed.
"You still haven't told me who you are dating, " Fawn raises a brow at Elliot.
"My boyfriend. I'm dating my boyfriend, " Elliot deadpans.
I snicker, and Fawn frowns, staring me down harshly.
"Okay, promise you won't tell anyone?" Elliot asked, and Fawn nodded her head like an excited child.
I narrowed my eyes at Fawn and shifted closer to her. I placed my hands in front of her face, ready to clasp her mouth if she screams.

I immediately place my hands over her mouth, muffling her words. She stares at me with her downturned cat-like eyes, letting me know she's calm.
I remove my hands slowly, and she wipes her lips with the back of her hand.
"Aaron?" She asks in a softer tone. "How long?"
"Six months, " Elliot replies, crunching lettuce.
"Six months?" She yells in a loud voice.
I wasn't able to cover her mouth because I didn't expect her to scream. A few people turn to stare at our table, and I stare them down.
"Wow, I think your boyfriend cheated on you with me, " Fawn furrows her brows, staring down at the table.
I broaden my eyes, wondering why she would say such a thing out loud.
Elliot shrugs and stares at her with a bored expression. "He's trying to hide his sexuality by constantly making out with girls."
Fawn's frown deepens. "Doesn't that make you mad?"
Elliot shrugs and runs a hand through his hair. "I'm fine as long as he doesn't make out with other guys."
He keeps saying he's fine, but the way he acts proves otherwise. I decide to ignore it because it's not my place to pry.
