I look away, and then look back at him. I just couldn’t look away. It seem like Drake couldn’t either. There was something about the way Drake was looking at me, it made me feel special.

“Well, maybe he wasn’t trying to flirt. I can tell when a guy is flirting or not. At least he didn’t kiss me when he first saw me.” Drake laughs. I sigh with relief. Things were back to normal.

 “You liked the kiss. I knew you wanted me to kiss you.” I rolled my eyes.

“No, you knew I was nervous, so you took advantage of me.”

“Finally you admit that you were nervous.” I smile.

“Shut up.” We finally look away when Lucas came back with my drink.

 

“Here is your drink.” Lucas said

“Thanks.” I said

“So… I was just wondering if you would like to go out on a date.”

“With who?”

"Me. Of course.”

“No.” I hear Drake cough. I look at Drake and it looked like he was trying not to laugh. I glared at him, and then I look back at Lucas.

“Why not? You already have a boyfriend?” He looked at Drake, then at me.

“No. You’re not my type.”

Drake looks at Lucas, then at me. “Um… I’ll meet you in the car.” Drake said

“Sure.” Drake got up and left the café. I look back at Lucas. “I’m sorry Lucas. I have to go. I’ll see you around.” I stood up and gave him the money for my drink. “Keep the change.”

“What is your name?”

“Lea.” I left the café. When I was in the car, Drake turned to me.

 

“What is your type?” Drake asked. I looked at him in surprise.

“What?” I asked

“Since Lucas is not your type, then who is?”

“I am not going to tell you.”

“Why not? Don’t tell me you like ugly guys?”

I laughed. “Do you always guess wrong?”

“Just tell me who your type is.” He smiles, but he looks so serious. 

“You might think it is stupid.”

“No I won’t.”

I look at Drake suspiciously. “Are you sure?”

“Yeah.”

‘Sigh’ “The type of guy I’m looking for is that he would have to be funny, smart, caring, and cute. I want a guy who would love me for me. A guy who can stay in a commitment. Basically, my prince charming who will tell me every day that he love me and protect me from anything.” I just realized I was smiling. I look at Drake. “But… the guy is not real. I haven’t found that guy yet. He is just a fantasy. That’s what he will always be. A fantasy.” ‘Sigh’ I look away and took a sip of my Chocolate Frappuccino. “It was a stupid fantasy.”

“No it isn’t. You will find that guy someday.” I look back at Drake and smile. 

“Thanks Drake. That was sweet of you to say. You need to show this side more.” He looks away.

“I think we should be going. Now put on your seatbelt.”

“Ok. Ok. Go to a park that is quite.” As soon as I put on my seatbelt, Drake drove off.

Chapter 7

 

He drove to the empty park and parked the car.

 

“Let’s begin practicing.” I said as we got out the car, went to the bench and sat down. 

“Why do I have to practice?”

“For you can learn how to act appropriately with women.”

“I do act appropriately.”

“Actually, you don’t. I’ll teach you how to really talk to a girl without flirting.”

“I don’t flirt all the time.” I raised an eyebrow at him.

“Yes you do. I probably know what you do when you meet a girl.”

“Oh really. Try.”

“Let me guess. You go to a club and sit. You look upset. A girl come over and asks what’s wrong. You tell her that you went through a bad break up or there was a death in your family. She start to care and get all soft for you. She asks what she can do to make you feel better. Then, of course, you have sex with her. After you done, you compelled her that when she leave, she would not remember. Did I get it right?”

“Wow. You are good at guessing, but you forgetting one thing.”

“What?”

“I also feed from her.” I shivered.

“You are such a jerk. You are using those girls.”

“Why do you think I compel them?”

“How would you feel if someone uses you like that?”

“Lea. What do you expect me to do? Go to the girls and tell them sorry for having sex with them. Also, I drank some of your blood.”

“I just want you to treat a girl right. That’s why I am helping you. Now, pay attention.” I smooth my hair back. “When you first meet a girl, don’t flirt. It shows that you are desperate.”

“I’m not desperate.”

“Yes you are... All you have to do is be yourself. Talk to her like you talk to your friends.”

“I don’t have friends.”

“Why not?”

“When people find out that I am a Knight, then they would try to be my friend, and then end up treating me like I’m royalty. When I meet a girl, they try to impress me and have my child. I just want to be treated like I’m normal.”

“I think you are normal. They are just jerks.” Drake smirks.

“You just saying that to make me feel better.”

“No. I think you are a great guy.” I smile

“Are you warming up to me?” I rolled my eyes

“No. Just telling the truth. There just this one side of you that is flirtatious, and unpleasant. The second side of you that is sweet, kind, and very caring. That is the side of you I want to bring out more." I straighten my dress and hair. "What do you always say when you start to talk to someone?” Drake just stares at me.

"I don't know."

I sighed in frustration. “You can at least say ‘hi’ or ‘hello’. That would be nice. Now we can finally start. Pretend you just met me.”

“This is so dumb.”

“You didn’t even try.”

“We already met.”

“So. That’s why I said ‘pretend’. Now try.” Drake sighs in frustration.

“Hi.”

“Hello. My name is Lea. What’s yours?” Drake laughs.

“You got to be kidding.”

“Drake. I’m serious. Just try.”

“Fine.” He leaned back and smile. “My name is Drake. You probably heard of me.”

I smile back. “No I haven’t.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes. I am new here.”

“What you doing in town?”

“Exploring. Los Angeles is a beautiful city.”

“I guess. But I think you are much more beautiful than this place.” I blush.

“Thanks.” Drake moved closer.

“You welcome. Do you want to go somewhere else?”

“I barely know you.”

He smirks. “That’s why I am going to take you somewhere for we can get to know each other a little better.” Drake smooth my hair behind my ear.

“Oh really.”

“Yeah.” He lifts my chin, lean down, and kissed me. I moved away and stood up. My heart was racing.

“Drake! Why did you do that?!” He stood up.

“What?”

“You kissed me.”

“Yeah.”

“You not supposed to do that.”

“Ok. You didn’t even enjoy it?”

“That is not the point. You not supposed to kiss me."  ‘Sigh’ “We will just pretend this never happened.”

“So none of this happened.”

“Yes. Just don’t do it again.”

“Do what?”

“Kiss me.” He smirks.

“I thought you said it never happened.” I rolled my eyes.

“Whatever. Let’s just finish practicing. With no kissing.”

 

“Ok. Now, let’s try this again.” I said. I sat back down. “Hi, my name is Lea.” Drake starts laughing. “Drake, stop laughing.”

“How do you know my name?”

“Stop.”

“Stop what? I don’t know you.”

“I’m serious.”

“I’m serious too. Have we met?”

“Drake...”

“Did anyone ever tell you that you look just like Emma Stone.” I groaned.

‘This is going to be a long day.’ I thought to myself.

 

So, for the rest of the afternoon, I have been trying my best to help Drake. Of course it didn’t work. He kept playing around with me. I was going nuts. Drake tried to piss me off. Well guess what? It worked. I finally decided to leave the park. Drake followed me.

 

“You are so difficult!”

“Why you say that?”

“Do you realize that I’m trying to help you and you make this like… a joke?”

“I’m sorry.” I stopped and look up at Drake.

“No you not.” Drake smiles.

“Yes I am.”

“If you were sorry, you wouldn’t have done it.” Drake took a step toward me and took my hand.

“Well, I am sorry.”

I let go of his hand and cross my arm over my chest. “Okay… if you sorry, then tell me in a straight face that you are sorry.” Drake was trying to keep a serious face, but it failed. He starts laughing. I frowned.

“I’m sorry. It’s hard to stay serious.”

“Wow… Just wow.” I walk away to the car and got in the passenger’s seat. Drake got into the driver’s seat and start the car.

“Lea, I’m just kidding.”

“Well, I’m not. I’m serious, Drake.” He sighs

“Lea…”

“I don’t want to talk anymore about this.”

“Ok. Fine.” Drake drove off. I thought he was driving us back to the house, but he drove us to Joe’s Pizza House. He parked the car.

“What’s this?”

“I’m hungry. Come on.”

 

Drake and I left from the car and went inside. One of the waiters led us to the table and gave us a menu. Drake and I agreed to get a pepperoni pizza. Drake leaned over.

"Are you still mad at me?"

I leaned back in my chair. "A little."

"Come on. Smile."

"No."

"Lea, don’t make me go down to my knees and ask for forgiveness."

"You wouldn't do that." Drake raised an eyebrow at me. He got up and went down to his knees. 

"Lea Richardson. I am so, so sorry. I will try to not do it again. Just forgive me." He said loudly. Everyone start looking at us. I blushed

"Drake! Stop this." I whispered

"No. Just forgive me. Remember, I'm a good guy. Just give me another chance." He said louder. I groaned

"Fine. Fine. I forgive you. Now shut the hell up and get up." I said

Drake smirks. "Not until you smile."

I smile. "Is that better?"

"That's good enough." He got up and sat down on the chair. A waitress came over.

 

"Did you just say Lea Richardson?" she asked

"Yea. That's me." I said

"Remember me? You use to baby sit my little sister, Emily."

"Oh yeah. Ana, right?"

"Yeah."

"I haven't seen you'll in a while." I got up and gave her a hug.

"Yeah. Dad wanted to move. He made this place."

"Wow. That's great."

"I heard about your parents. I'm sorry about what happened. How is your Dad?"

"He's... good."

"Is he out of a coma?"

"No."

"Oh my god."

"I know. Enough about me. How is Emily?"

"She is fine. She is still growing."

"How old is she?"

"8."

"Wow. Where is she?"

"At home with Mom. She didn't feel well."

"Oh. Well, can you tell her I said hi?"

"Sure. I can see you met my cousin, Drake."

"Cousin?" I look at Drake as I sat down. Ana brought a chair to our table and sat down.

Drake smirk. "Yep." he said

"You never told me you have a cousin." I said

"You never asked."

"Are you two dating?" Ana asked.

"Ew. No. I'm just helping him find his soul mate." I said

"Finally. Drake, you need to settle down."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what everyone says." he said

"So you took over your Mom's business?" she asked

"Yeah." I said

"That's great. After you done with Drake, you can help me out."

"Sure. How old are you?"

"21."

"Wow. Same age as me. When will you stop aging?"

"When I'm... 25."

I turned to Drake. "What about you, Drake?"

"I already stopped." he said

"Wow. Why did you stop?"

"I want to stay young."

"Then, how old are you now in human
