I forgot to tell you what a Destiny is. Destiny's have supernatural powers and special gifts; like my special ability is that I'm immune to ghosts that kill you with a single look. De Silva's are basically the same only much more powerful. That night when I was deciding what to make for dinner, I heard a knock on my door...which is odd if you ask me because I live in the woods and I'm alone. Which is why I did what I did next, only out of self-defence of course... I opened the door and did one of my Destiny fighting moves when someone clearly much faster, experienced and powerful than me caught me in midair. "Angel? What are you doing here...do you live here?!", said a voice I recognise. "Hugo?! How did you find the house?", I freaked out. "A house in the middle of the woods? That's a bit odd don't you think, Angel?" "Ok, yes it's weird, but it's my home besides... I like isolated places. You called me Angel, what happened with 'Miss Destiny'?" He shrugged. "You told me not to call you that. Why did you run away earlier today?" "I'm not used to company and I got mad, I didn't want to scream at you." "There's another reason, I can sense that. What other reasons are you hiding?" I didn't respond, no way am I telling him my secrets. "Angel?" "How do I know I can trust you, Hugo?" "Is that it mademoiselle? Well, I haven't tried to kill you or hurt you in any way." He chuckles and his eyes sparkle. "No, that isn't the reason. This is my reason why I ran away from you: I'm a Destiny Royalty; I was kidnapped 5 years ago. I was afraid you'd recognise me and take me back to my mother." "Why would I do that? Besides, you're not the only one who's part of a royal family..." "What do you mean?" I asked. I'm seriously getting confused. He sighs and rolls his eyes upwards. "What I'm trying to say is that I happened to be a De Silva Royalty, which makes me a prince... just like you're a princess." He said the last part with amusement in his voice. Which made me think: 'Shit, he's a De Silva and a prince. Can things get any worse? That's it, I'm leaving tonight!' "Listen, Hugo... it's getting really late and I'm really tired; so if you could just please-" He interrupts me by laughing. His laugh is so rich and full of life, I've forgotten what I wanted to say; to tell you the truth I couldn't even breathe... and that's when I realised it's going to be very difficult to get him out of my head and there is no way that I'm going to run away and hide from this situation, not with him being so attractive. "Really miss Destiny? You should know it's no use running away and hiding from your fears... for example: moving on." Then he gave me that heart-stopping smile for the 2nd time that day. I'm thinking: 'WTF! Am I falling in love with him?' My legs feels like Jell-O, like at any moment I will collapse from his powerful aurora vibrating through me. He sees it and catches me right before I collapse. "Miss? Are you alright?" he asked with a look of worry on his face. "Yeah, just tired that's all" I lied. I need to get away from him, but my legs won't respond. He pulls out a chair from my dinning set and puts me down gently. "I'll make you dinner, ok?"

"No, that's really not necessary." He smiled at me and said: "I know, but I want to... I've noticed you struggle to respond when I'm around you." 'Great! Now he made me blush (again)...he's probably thinking I've got a huge crush on him. Wait a minute don't De Silva's have a bad habit of reading other people's thoughts? Oh bloody hell!' For an hour and 30 minutes I watched him make dinner. He's making my favourite Italian dish, Lasagne. "There, dinner is served. Enjoy." Eagerly I picked up my fork and took my first bite of lasagne. "Mmm. This is delicious!" meaning it. "You like it?" he asked. "Like it? I love it! Hugo, this is the best lasagne I've ever eaten." He chuckled "I'm glad you like it." Most of my jitters have gone and I feel more relaxed now. For the next 4 hours we talked, nonstop. We actually have a lot in common, so we became friends pretty fast. After another half an hour he gets up. "I should be going, it's almost midnight. I had a wonderful time with you. I hope we'll meet again, Mon Rose." He said while kissing my left hand and he turned to go. I watched him go and suddenly got this awful feeling that I don't want him to leave just yet. "Hugo! Hugo wait!" When he didn't turn around I went running after him. I AM SUCH AN IDIOT. The next thing I knew a monster plant grabbed me by my left ankle with its poisonous vines. (Fuck! Where did I put that dagger?) I thought while searching for said dagger. Ok poison burning through clothes now and dagger still missing! Oh there is...in one of the fucking plants vines! I only had one option left...ask for help and that really made me feel weak. "Hugo! Hugo help me!" I screamed on the top off my lungs. He spun around and when he saw what was caught on my left ankle he ran at full speed towards me. He got hold of me at the waist, cuts the poisoned vine with a pocketknife (his maybe?) and burns the evil, mutated plant with silver fire from his hands (You can only kill mutated plants with silver fire). Then he removes the rest of the vine off my leg before it melts into my skin. He did this all in a minute, which is pretty dam fast if you ask me. (Ps: Percy Jackson fan, 'dam shirt' LMAO)

The whole time I've been hyperventilating and I was as scared as hell. "Shh, Angel! Calm down, it's over! I'm here, I've got you, you're safe now." He probably said it about 10 times before I eventually stopped hyperventilating... only to burst into tears. He pulled me closer to him and tried to cheer me up. "Mon Rose, why were you outside?" he asked me 10 minutes later. "I, um... forgot to say thank you, for dinner," I mumbled. "So you ran after me without looking if it's safe? You should be more careful, Angel and you don't have to thank me, it was my pleasure to make you dinner." He chuckled. "I know, but I wanted to...besides if that plant didn't snatch my dagger I would've gotten free on my own." I murmured. I don't know how long we sat that way in silence, but I just couldn't stand it any longer, the silence I mean. "Hugo?" I said. "Yes, Angel?" his voice is giving me Goosebumps because of his close proximity. "I'm scared. What if another monster tries to hurt me or maybe even a zombie or a ghost? What if Felix Diego finds me? I'm no use when it comes with self-defence." I said with a tiny voice. "Nothing will hurt you, Angel, I won't let that happen to you!" he said it with such emotion in his voice that he startled me. 'Does he actually care about me, more than as a friend?' I thought. "You can stay at my place it's not far from here and it has its own protective shield around it." He said. "Hugo, that's-" "Rosella, don't. It's just until it's safe enough for you to go home. I don't want to see you get hurt!" he interrupted me. So that's how I knew it's no use arguing with him... and that's how I ended up staying at his place because of that stupid mutated plant.
