Ciarra POV

I walked into my room ignoring Juliet the whole way. I needed to think. Although she was ignoring me as well. A sneer crossed her lips. She walked harshly into her room as I did into mine.

For centuries I was watched love grow. I had never kissed nor have I ever wanted to. But that moment, for some reason felt right. I was a sinner though. I had to be forgiven. Angles could not perform such acts…

I was pacing my room begging for forgiveness. I felt my phone buzz in my pocket. I pulled it out to see that Andy had texted.

“I’m sorry, I guess I was a little caught off guard…I didn’t mean to embarrass you…to be honest I kind of liked it…” I put my hands over my head, dropping my phone and falling to my knees.

“Please forgive me!” I begged. What had I done…? I got into this relationship for a friend. And look at what I had done! I picked up my phone and texted him back fast. “I am very sorry for this kiss…I was in the moment. Please do not think anything of it.”

He must think a fool of me. He replied fast. “I understand.”

I wanted to cry. I must have hurt him… I looked to the black bear with blue eyes on my bed. I picked it up and placed it gently in my closet. I knelt down in front of it. I played with its right ear and smiled. “Angles cannot be with humans.”

I stood back up and took a shower. I undressed slowly. Staring at the curves that made my body. I thought nothing of it. But Andy had attraction to this. I sighed and turned on the water and stepped inside. Not being able to take hold of my thoughts. I was in a daze. I finished and walked back to my room closing the door. I looked to the closet knowing what lay behind the doors.

I grabbed a pair of jeans and a lose fitting tee shirt. I put socks on, stepped out into the hallway, and saw Juliet closing her door as well. She walked by me fast. She was never like this. She always wanted to know what was going on. Did the kiss startle her?

“I didn’t mean to kiss him, I didn’t know what I was doing.” I confessed following her into the kitchen. She ignored me and continued to text on her phone “I had fun last night though.” I laughed. “I mean after all this time it seems like you wanting us to be friends worked.” She didn’t look at me. She walked over to the couch and turned the TV on. “I’m confused Juliet,” I said sitting beside her. “Please tell me what is wrong.”

She jerked her head toward me and screamed in my face, “if you continue to annoy me I will rip your throat out!” Her face got hard, I stood up from the couch and she did as well, still in my face. “Do not do that again. You will be on the streets with no one!” She got louder. “Do you want that!? Little whore!” She yelled before marching outside slamming the front door behind her.

I was left confused, standing, staring blankly. She had never screamed at me like that. What was I to do? Tell her I loved her, that I respect her, and that I was sorry? I walked slowly into my room. I sat on my bed letting tears fall. Was she still a friend? I wanted to call Andy. To ask him to save me. Or at least talk with Juliet. I decided against it and pulled out the bear from me closet instead. I sat on my bed and hugged it close. I heard the front door slam again. Juliet’s voice quietly ran through the house.

“I can’t Jiel, I still have feelings.” I heard her say. “This needs to go faster!” There was a long pause. “Jinxx?” Another short pause, “what the hell am I going to do with that?” I stopped listening and looked out my window.

“Is this a punishment? For what my Lord? I have been faithful…please end this torment.” I rested my head on the bear. “Please show Juliet that I am kind. That I mean nothing of that kiss. It was wrong.”
