Chapter 2

A frown was raised by Chloe. "You don't eat," she observed in a matter-of-fact manner. "You do, though." "Well," she shrugged her shoulders. "Not right now." A sigh was already sitting on the edge of his throat, and he was already rolling his eyes. Jonas was unable to finish his sentence since the girl was abruptly confronted by a meal tray belonging to another person. When Chloe turned her head to the side, she noticed a boy who was sitting next to her from somewhere else. "Hudson," she exclaimed with a grin on her face, expressing her joy. In light of the fact that his faculty was not located on this side of the school, she questioned, "What are you doing here?" "Getting you food." On the tray, he indicated with a nod. "I heard you didn't have breakfast." A slight frown appeared on Chloe's face. "Did Franz snitch on me again?" The young lady was being observed by Hudson, who gave a shrug and hummed to himself. During his examination of her, his eyes briefly traveled over her body. "Eating is essential for human beings," he stated. She was aware that he was correct, despite the fact that she hesitated. Following the release of a deep and genuine sigh, she then began to consume food. During the brief and humorous talk that Hudson and Jonas had, the girl became engrossed in the conversation. During her attentive listening, she carefully followed what they had to say. Chloe's eyes did not contact the eyes of the other lads until they eventually sat down next to them. She had overlooked the fact that the four boys were approaching their table since she was sitting too early. Hudson said, "You took your time," as he gazed at his buddies. "I admire your patience." Mateo responded in a playful manner, "We would have been faster if it weren't for those two," while casting an almost judgmental glance at Easton and Jace. They hardly reacted, simply rolling their eyes and delivering a slight smile that was amused. The younger one's focus rapidly turned to the girl he had not yet been introduced to, and this occurred not long after the previous one. He wore a grin on his face and boldly raised his chin up. It's me, Mateo. "That is Easton, Jace, and David," he gleefully informed me. It is a pleasure to meet you. She gently responded, "Chloe," but she was taken aback by the boy's vivacious personality. "Why did you come here?" Easton gave Jonas a signal with a nod. "He usually comes to sit with us, but he said he was busy today, so we came here instead." While he was heaving a sigh, Jonas leaned forward and placed his head on his arm. It was said that he was busy tutoring Chloe, and if he hadn't fallen asleep ten minutes after they sat down at their table, he would have been busy teaching Chloe as well. In spite of this, Jonas was exhausted, so he took advantage of this opportunity to get some rest and go further away from the other grim reapers on the scene. "I can never get a break, can I?" The crook of his arm was where he whispered something. "Not really," Hudson remarked in a semi-serious manner. "Sucks to be you." The younger one murmured, "I hate you too, Hudson," the older one said. Even though everyone else was concentrating on Jonas, David couldn't take his eyes off of the girl. She was sitting in a comfortable position in the warm sun, and her eyes were sparkling with beauty. Her eyelashes cast beautiful shadows upon her cheeks, and her hair was still on her shoulders. Before he spoke, he was unaware that the image was aggravating to him for some reason. "You were in that alley the other day," he stated in response. The tone of his voice was severe, but it was difficult to determine what emotion he was expressing. Chloe raised her eyebrows and moved her head to gaze at the lad. She then hummed in a contemplative manner. "'The other day' is an inclusive term." "You saw me there," he said, attempting to convince her to recall or admit that she had seen him there. The head was shaken by Chloe. In spite of this, she did, in fact, see him there. "I don't remember seeing you in an alley lately," she lied in a calm manner on the subject. "I also didn't know that's where you like to spend your time off." David stifled his rage by clenching his jaw and swallowing it. "Are you under the impression that you can deceive me? Do you not have any idea who I am? Chloe paused for a moment before slowly nodding her. She indicated Mateo with her finger. "David," she said in response. "Mateo just introduced you." "If we weren't at university, you'd be dead by now," the young lad whispered in a low voice that was loaded with a sense of threat. The tint of his eyes changed to a dark gray, and they immediately became dead. Intense and threatening in nature. She was thinking, "What a terrible temper." In the event that Chloe was unaware of the boy's boundaries, she would have been terrified. Indeed, it is possible that she would have walked away from the table at that very instant, given the chilliness that the grim reaper exuded and the warm, uneasy sensation that was rising up inside of her. However, she did not. On the whole, she didn't care. She made an honest offer, "Then let's meet in an alley the next time," and she meant it. "Show me what you got, grim reaper." "If he beats me up, will you help me out?" With straw caught between her teeth, Chloe inquired with a quizzical expression. In the meantime, she sipped her coffee and observed Hudson, who appeared to be undecided. It was a hum. After giving a sincere response, he turned his head just as Chloe's face became slightly frowning. "I might try to sell tickets to the fight," he said.
