Someone help!

It's at the moment you'd badly want to use magic to run but you can't.

Gosh.

What do I do now?

"You know what doctor, I feel great...Millennium great! I just need to go home please!". I whispered in a form of plea once the doctor was near my bedside. I could've just cast a spell on the doctor but with Xander in the same room, that's impossible.

"You'd be on your way once you take your pills Isabelle". Xander cut in from across the room with a look of concern on his face.

Why's he so good at pretending?!

"Uh uh, I'm kind of allergy to medicines actually". I shook my head and attempted to stand up but Xander blocked me somehow. Like what the hell?!

"I said no!". I spat out at him.

I expected him to give up and leave annoyed but he still stood there not moving.

Ah jeez..maybe that doctor's under his spell, who knows?

"Why you so scared of me?". He folded his arms and didn't look away from me for a moment. I could see some suspicions creeping to his face slowly and that's the last thing I want him to do, especially in this kind of place. "I've noticed that you've been very distant and cold to me recently".

Again, why's he good at pretending?!

"I-I'm not...". I quickly answered and looked besides him.

"Okay then, prove it by taking your pills right now...in front of me". He suggested with a cunning smile.

He's finally got me there...

I'm so screwed up here...

"X-xander....I'm better off without those stuffs!". I exclaimed and stomped my feet breaking the tensed air around us.

"But you didn't say you won't do it?". He replied.

I knew what he was insinuating here..

And I can't risk that...

Maybe a play for a play won't hurt...

"Fine, hand me the tumbler and I've prove that I'm not scared of you handsome". I muttered with the little confidence I had and stretched out my hand patiently.

He stared at my hand for a while before handing me the glass.

Now or never.

I chuckled at myself at how stupid he was for thinking I'd actually take it.

"Oops". I muttered as I let go of the tumbler carefully from my thumb.

"Careful". He said in surprise and caught it just before it could touch the ground.

Seriously what is he not good at?

I'm doomed now.

I don't want him suspicious either.

Without a word, I cupped the glass in my palms and shot him a glare.

He didn't seem to react to that other than give me an encouraging smile.

Hmm.

Just as my lips touched the glass, I stood up and tried running away briskly.

He still wouldn't stop chasing me either!

"Drink!". He hissed and held me firmly. "What has suddenly gotten into you?".

I gulped at how authoritative he started to sound now and became even more scared.

"Let me go!". I kicked him in his weak spot and ran once more, only to be held by two firm hands. "No means no!".

"Why so stubborn now, drink up". He laughed and forcefully opened my mouth with his piercing palms.

"Xander! I'm warning you now!". I tried to struggle but it was no use. So instead I bit his fingers each time he tried parting my lips.

He did what I least expected that moment, he took a deep breath and took a sip from the drink.

Was he trying to prove it's not poisoned?

I had no idea.

Before I could say anything else again his lips slammed against mine forcefully and his fingers pinned my nostrils making it hard for me to breathe.

Defeatedly, I gasped for air and the moment I did, the liquid in his mouth came slurping down my throat slowly.

Xander had kissed me!

Not only that-

He made me drink the stuff!

I expected to drop down dead or be experiencing a trauma of hell but surprisingly I didn't.

Instead, I felt a whole lot better and energetic.

Weird.

"O-oh, your b-bleeding". I stuttered as the sight of blood trailing down his chin weakened me.

"Bleeding when someone's safe and sound is better than bleeding for no reason". He replied with a smile and wiped the blood stains from his face with a warm towel.

I'm so confused.

"B-but...h-how's that possible?! Y-you poisoned it!". I stared at him with shock and confusion as he washed his hands in the nearest sink.

He didn't answer but laugh.

"D-don't laugh at me?! I hate medicines really!".

"I could never drug you, even if I did...I'd drug you with my charm". He answered with a chuckle and hung a cloth over his shoulders.

The cut on his face looked better now, at least. I can't believe I did that to him, I'm I that aggressive?

Hehe.

"N-no need to...it's already happening". I mumbled and punched his chest with a frown at how he made me fool like a fool.

"Third time you surprised me...especially with strength". He said and held my hands, brushing his fingertips against mine. "C'mon let's take you home".

"On the way h-home, you'd tell me what you put in that drink". I demanded and gave him a serious look.

"Why?". He raised his eyebrows in surprise and shook his head with a smile. "I can't do that, it's a secret recipe".

Secret recipe?

Interesting.

"Except you want to bleed again, then feel free to say no". I mumbled, turning my face away as he started laughing again.

Don't go red again!

Don't let him see that Isabelle!
