( TILL THE RAIN STOPS )
JoJo’s eyes widened, and for a minute, there was total silence.
Draco was still staring at JoJo, and this time she stared back.
“Wait… what did you just… say” Abigail said.
She still has bulging eyes from the shock.
“JoJo” Draco replied again, and Abigail choked on nothing.
She started coughing.
“JoJo?” She asked amidst her coughs.
“You have ear problem?” Draco replied without blinking, and Abigail coughed even more.
Snow’s body was shaking as if she spent her entire life in a rain, and Luna smiled when she noticed that.
“Wow, wasn’t expecting you to say that name” James said.
“Should I have mentioned you?” Draco replied, shifting his eyes to him.
“Why did you mention her though?, You in love with her?” He asked.
JoJo’s heart skipped beats immediately that question was asked, and just as Draco was about to say his answer…
“Only one question is allowed, and he has answered that” Walton interrupted.
“That’s true, but Draco might wanna try it out yunno?” Luna said, and everyone faced her.
“What do you mean?” Snow asked.
“I suggested the game, I have the right to remake rules, Draco you should try it out, kiss JoJo” Luna replied.
“What!” Snow and Abigail said at a time.
“Draco, you interested?” Luna asked, and Draco looked at JoJo before standing.
JoJo started picking on her nails under the table as he started walking to her, but a little before he’d get to her, Butter stood.
“Not allowed, this game should end” he said and grabbed JoJo’s hand.
“Butter….
“Was on my way out, wasn’t planning to kiss her here” Draco said and turned to the door.
He walked out, and Snow followed him immediately.
“I’ll take you home” Butter said and took JoJo out of the restaurant.
“You knowingly pulled that stunt, right?” Winter asked beside Luna.
“I just h@ťě what I don’t like, someone’s two-faced” Luna replied and started eating her barbeque without looking up.
Butter got out with JoJo and opened the car door for her.
“Get in, I’ll take you home” he said.
“What if don’t wanna go yet?” She replied.
“What!”
“You love ordering me like a baby, do you know that?” She said.
“JoJo…
“I didn’t tell you to take me out of the restaurant” she interrupted, and his eyes widened.
“Don’t tell me you actually wanna get kissed by that @zzhole!” He said loudly.
“He’s not!….” She said loudly.
“JoJo…
“An @zzhole, so don’t call him that” she said and started leaving, but he held her.
“Let me drive you home” he said with pleading eyes.
“Please?” He said, and she gave him one more glance before getting into the car.
He sighed and got in too, driving off.
****
Draco sat in a Starbuck not far from the restaurant and got his pack of cigarettes, he lightened one with his branded lighter and started smoking slowly.
He might not have kissed JoJo before, but his head has the actual shape of her lips, and he has been exhausting a lotta self resistance to not kiss the hell out of them since some days ago.
The other time when he was asked who he’d love to kiss, that’s why he didn’t hesitate before saying her full name, and when James asked if he’s in love with her, he was actually gonna say yes.
Yes?,… Yes.
He might be blunt and cold and maybe ruthless, but he can define his emotions well, he’s good at figuring out what he feels, and that’s why it was easy to know he’s madly….in… love…with her.
He’s good at bottling up how he feels too, but the champagne bottle has been popped, and now the feelings are overflowing, he’s running mad with hunger and desires…for her.
He took another gentle puff from his cigarette, and Snow appeared in front of him.
“You’re in love with JoJo?” She asked, and he stood.
“You’re not my mum, I have no explanation to give” he replied and started leaving, but she suddenly hugged him from behind.
“Love me instead, I’m more beautiful and…
Draco pushed her away from himself and she staggered away.
“Yeah you’re beautiful, but can never be JoJo, and you’ll never be” he said flatly and threw down his cigar before walking away.
Snow was seething as she watched him walk away, and she suddenly screamed in anger, her voice echoing in the night air.

JOJO’S PLACE**
“Welcome back baby, how was the BBQ party?” Victoria asked when JoJo came in.
“Cool mum” she said with a smile to cover up.
“You said the anonymous person who payed my loans is your major mate?, Who’s the person?, I need to build a temple and start worshipping him” Victoria said, and JoJo giggled.
“I’ll introduce him to you soon, right now he wants to remain anonymous” JoJo replied.
“We should go shop for groceries tomorrow, we need to make our palate taste something different from pie and custard” Victoria smiled.
“Ok mummy!” JoJo replied and started going in.
“JoAnn” Victoria suddenly called with the intention of telling her about what Ignatius said, but immediately JoJo looked back, she lost confidence.
“I love you” she said instead.
“I love you more mummy, goodnight” JoJo smiled and entered her room.
She immediately had her night shower and changed into one of the nighties that Snow bought for her.
A yellow coloured one of lace material, it’s see-through and equally short, giving her an incredibly Șëx¥ look.
She tied her hair into a bun and sat in front of the mirror, then she applied her facials.
Her mind went to earlier at the restaurant when Draco called her name.
She started sucking on her lips while touching them, and it didn’t take long before she started imagining Draco’s lips on hers.
Her eyes widened, and she quickly stood from the front of the mirror.
Her heart started beating fast again, and she held her chest to calm down.
“JoAnn, calm down ok?, You can do it” she said, and her phone buzzed on the bed.
She went for it and saw a message from Firefighter.
She sat and read.
FIREFIGHTER: I don’t think I’m ready to confess my feelings for my crush yet
MIMI: Why?
FIREFIGHTER: I just don’t want to do it yet, I have to get rid of the unwanted weeds first
MIMI: Unwanted???
FIREFIGHTER: Sorry I typed in riddles, you’ll understand soon…when we meet.
JoJo inhaled hard, and her eyes caught Draco’s wristwatch on the table.
She went for it and smiled as she admired it, remembering when he gave it to her before going into that room to teach Kent a lesson.
“JoJo Collins” his manly voice sounded in her ears again, and she smiled brightly.

MYSTIC CULT HOUSE★10PM**
“Tommorow night is another SOF, but this time, it’s mainly Draco and Kelly” Stone announced, and Kelly smiled.
“This time, you guys have different targets, and whoever takes down his target first and get here before ten, gets to be my right hand” he further said.
“Yes capo” Kelly bowed.
Draco only frowned.
“Show respect Draco” Kavita said beside him.
“Sure, capo” Draco said without bowing and walked out of the house immediately.
“Capo, Draco is growing wings these days, shouldn’t we cut them off?” Kelly said.
“That decision is mine to make” Stone replied and stood
Everyone bowed as he left the house.
**
Draco was about to enter his car when Kavita held him back, and he faced her.
“Do you know you’re crossing the line?, It’ll only take one bullet from capo to finish you off” she said, and Draco smirked.
“Bullet?, he can’t even handle a gun” he said.
“What the f-__-k are you talking about?” Kavita said.
“We’re not in talking terms, so f_ck away” he replied and got in his car, driving away straight.
Kavita got a mail immediately, from Stone.
