-Dominic's POV-"You should go back inside it's starting to rain," I say while going through my contacts. I don't know why exactly I was so open to Nickolas, I hadn't told anyone about what happened to my adoptive family aside from teachers. Xavier already knew, and Blake only knew bits and pieces but something about Nickolas made me spill it all which was stupid of me. He's probably going to use it against me now. Fuck me."And what? You're going to stay and try to take care of a bike that doesn't have a chance of being repaired?" I curl my hands into fists but stay calm.
-Nickolas' POV-I stood with Dominic's hoodie in my hands, confused as to what exactly she wanted me to do with it. She went towards my car with her phone by her ear before turning to me and calling, "Well? Are you going to put it on and open the door or not?" which then made me realize: she gave me the hoodie to keep me warm. I couldn't help but let a smile form on my face as I put the hoodie on, covering my slightly shivering state.I opened the car afterwards and let Dominic in although she looked quite comfortable under the rain. She slid in and started talking to who I assumed was a mechanic through the phone. I heated the car in the meantime and drove to the gates of the school when Dominic suddenly shouted, "
-Dominic's POV-"Xavier, can I talk to you privately?" I growl at the said man while glancing at Nickolas. Xavier looked down at me and grinned like he was innocent before following me out of the door and around the corner."What's wrong?" He asked, clearly amused at my flustered state. I hold my forehead in annoyance."Joining my gym
-Nickolas' POV-The amount of sweat I had worked up in this past hour and the amount of pain that each of my muscles was feeling, I had never worked so hard in all of my life.This class was above any other level I have ever been in. No wonder Xavier thought this was the best way to pay back for her bike. The pain behind each workout, the skill needed, the strength, it made me want to give up over and over again but,"Don't slow down! If you stop you're doing it again!" Dominic was a strict gym instructor. There was no disobeying her but it's not like I could say she wasn't hard-working or hypocritical either. She was there with us, doing the exercises with us throughout the whole way. It made me see her
-Dominic's POV-As I walked into the school building 20 minutes late, I tried thinking of excuses I could use to explain to the guys where I went off to yesterday before I stopped and told myself that I didn't really care. Although I did realize that walking to school allowed for more time to think, and even though that should be a good thing, I personally needed to avoid it. There were things that I didn't need to think about.I opened my locker with little awareness of my surroundings. Most people were in class at this point anyway except, "You're late" I was told by someone and I looked up to find Jason?
-Nickolas' POV-Yesterday was a mess. I didn't mean for it to get so out of hand and it was a miracle that we didn't get caught for it. The gang and I were able to escape before the police came in but unfortunately, that meant I had to leave the Mysterious Demon behind even though we were so close to trapping her this time.There was something that was bothering me though and that was how I was going to face Dominic after. She relied on her job there to make a living and now it's closed. I wanted to pay for some of the damage somehow to make up for it and get her help in doing so but so far, I hadn't seen her.Class started a while ago and she was yet to come in but what did make me hopeful was when Jason
-Dominic's POV-My whole body was screaming out in pain as I sat on the floor trying to bear with it. I was pretty sure my legs were either broken or fractured and one of my ribs may be broken too (this one is a more familiar pain since I've cracked a few ribs during my fights).Around me, the guys were standing or sitting around, arguing amongst themselves as to what to do whilst also asking me questions that I chose to ignore."Someone needs to call an ambulance," Jason then finalized but when he said that some images flashed in my head and I immediately shouted,
-Nickolas' POV-After Xavier took Dominic away, I looked down in deep thought. 'What the fuck, Demon?!' was what he said but something about it had triggered a train of thought in my mind, connecting different bits and pieces. 'Fuck up, Demon!' Xavier had also shouted towards the Mysterious Demon. It couldn't be, could it? I had never seen Dominic and The Mysterious Demon in the same room or close to each other despite them both knowing each other. Even what Dominic had just said about the police finding out would also make sense.My eyes widened for a moment before I balled my hands into fists in anger. She had been playing us this whole time!Zack seemed to have noticed my tense figure because he holds
-Dominic's POV-I staid laying on the floor and the whole room was silent for a few seconds before Xavier snapped. "You mother fucker!" He shouted towards Nickolas but before they would start fighting, I put my arm up, signalling for him to stop and help me up. The room calmed down a little as Xavier came my way and looked down at me, breathing out a sigh and carefully helping me up and letting me use him as support. "I told you not to move around" he whispered in my ear and I smirked,
