The Devil's Sweetheart

The dappled sun shone through the maple trees creating mysterious shadows on the sleeping girl laying on the bed. Still resting on her back, Leena was in deep slumber oblivion to the outside world. But an intruder arrived suddenly to disrupt her peaceful sleep. Hitting her shoulder, he tried to wake her up but the sleeping log did not even budge. Just when Leena turned around to roll on to the other side of the bed, her hand unconsciously smacked his face.

"Oww...My beautiful face." He cried patting it to soothe his tensed facial muscles.

But still, he did not give up the ship when he is here to gossip on an urgent topic. Moving close to her feet he began tickling them. Vexed that her sleep was disrupted again, Leena kicked him with her back leg and he was straight away delivered to the ground.

"Owww! My butt. Why does she always aim for my leg or butt.." 

"So that your day will be as bad as your butt, Mr. Bluebell Madonna" Leena groggily replied remembering bits and parts of their yesterday\'s adventures. How stupidly his brain was working to come up with such a girly name even if he is dead drunk.

"Hey! Your Bubba Bones name is worse than mine! By the way, my bum is cute. Don\'t call it bad. I do lots of work out, you know." Drew replied showing off his hand muscles.

"But I still find your bum is as round as a basketball." Still, not planning to leave her bed, Leena replied struggling with her drowsy brain and sore throat. She felt like cutting her throat is the only cure for it.

"You always bully me. Get up, my lovely sister. I have to talk about something important." Getting up from the ground, Drew went near her trying to pull the blanket off. But Leena kicked him again.

"Why did you land into my room in the morning itself? Didn\'t we both create enough circus yesterday?" Leena yelled at him when she is starting to remember snippets of yesterdays. The worst things she talked about him were getting a little clear. What have you done Leena? He got an excuse to tease you and he would not leave that matter.  Why did you drink with this nutty fruit cake?

"Isn\'t it good? If everything fails in our life, we have an option to join the circus." Drew replied with excitement.

"Three chimpus escaped from the circus, one was caught wearing makeup, the other was caught watching a T.V."

Chimpus? It must be a monkey. What a funny name. Drew reasoned with a giggle.

"Nice joke." Drew cracked up. "So the third one must be caught eating a banana, am I right?"

"No! It is sitting right in front of me eating my brain. Get away from my room, you dingleberry" Leena yelled and slumped on her bed again when she felt her eyes are still heavy. She doesn\'t even know when she caught up with her sleep yesterday.

But Drew again interrupted when Leena was about to sleep.

"What!" Leena barked.

"My friend has arrived for the wedding," Drew whispered as if it is a big secret. When he was in the dining room drinking his usual banana smoothie, he heard a familiar voice and he knew, he has arrived. So he straight away rushed to give heads upon him. Little did Drew know, Leena already knows him.

"Congratulations."

"Don\'t compliment Jurassic. He is a pain in the ass. As a sister, you should support me and you shouldn\'t talk with him. He is a very bad person." Drew complained as if like a child. The reason for hate, only both of them know and they would keep mum even if they are asked which has happened after one incident.

"Oh! He is bad? Ask him to come to my room. He would soon reach mental asylum." Leena said as if it is a matter of fact. She got a record of people telling them that they would end up in a mental hospital if they speak with her for an hour. Being a crazy narcissist, she felt it is an achievement.

"Leave about that brat. I heard they are planning for a treasure hunt game for all the people who are here for the wedding. It is based on \'chits of paper picking\' and two people would form a team. I will pull out some string and I will make sure that we both end up together in a team." Drew explained, he was scared that his friend would become his partner again which is the last thing he wants to do with him.

"Treasure hunt?" Leena blinked her eyes once, twice.  So, I have to go with Andrew? But I want to go with Mr.Adonis. I think I am starting to like him. If that annoying Kyle or Wendy is paired up with him, I will also pull out all my strings to pair up with him.

"I will go and ask aunt Daisy to prepare snacks. If it a whole long day, we cannot survive. Get fresh and come down. I will show my friend\'s dirty face."

Leena weakly nodded her head but her brain was thinking of a master plan on how to end up with Mr.Adonis for the treasure hunt game.

After blabbering everything, Drew hurriedly left the room, and right when he was about to open the doorknob, he was caught by Devin.

"Andrew Dawson!" Devin yelled pulling Drew\'s ear when he saw him in the room again. "Didn\'t I tell you not to disturb her sleep before going out? You sneaked into the room again just when I went out?"

"Owwww! Owwwwww!" Drew cried when his ear was pulled off. "Vincy, please leave my ear. I can\'t attach if it comes out."

Right when Devin released his ear, Drew escaped away from the room in a flash.

...

After Drew walked out of the room, Leena rose from her bed when her stomach began asking for food, but when her eyes trailed to the dress she was wearing which was not the same she was wearing yesterday, her face went expressionless. Straight away, Leena walked into his room. To her surprise, Devin didn\'t appear away just like he always does in the morning. He was taking a call and the moment Devin sensed her presence, he immediately ended the call to speak with her.

"Are you sober now? Shall we talk about your yesterday\'s performance?" Getting up from the couch, he strolled towards her.

"I_I my dress. H_ow, who." Leena stuttered with her words. She knew he would not take advantage but still it was scaring her.

"What do you think?" Devin crossed his arms closing their distance. He would never forget last night\'s events. When Devin thought she has slept peacefully after talking about banana, it was just his thought. She got up again after an hour and has started blabbering asking for hummus. He has to go in the middle of the night to get it when it was not readily available in the home and like a monkey, she has eaten a tub full of hummus spreading it all over her dress. Until dawn, she did not sleep and also did not allow him to sleep. Finally, when it was beginning to sunrise Devin got a wink of sleep but it was again disrupted by Drew. He kicked him out of the room to let her sleep for a while and went out for getting some water but Devin did not realize Drew would sneak into her room again just when he left.

"Was it you?" Leena gazed at the floor, her eyes brimmed with tears.

Seeing her on the verge of breaking down, Devin put an end to his tease. He could understand her stance. No girl would blush and get happy when her dress gets changed by a stranger in reality. Even though he is not a stranger to her, Devin is still far away to get physical.

"Don\'t worry. It\'s not me. I have asked Leah to change it." He reassured.

"Why did you ask her to change?" Leena asked looking into his eyes. Forget about men she is not even ready to get her body watched by a girl. Even if she goes to the hospital for any kind of treatment, she reluctantly agrees to open her dress when it is necessary. Only her mouth speaks, but when it comes to actions she is as shy as squirrels.

"Then would it be fine, if it was me?" Devin needled her.

"Hey! It\'s not the time for jokes. You could have woke me up." She cried thinking of how to face Leah.

"You were not even in a state to wake up, darling." 

"Ummm...Did I torture you?" Leena asked in a low murmur. When she looked at his dark circles, she understood her feats.

"Sweetheart, never drink again. Your normal craziness itself is too much to handle and when you are drunk you are stark raving mad." Devin did not lie, she is a meshuga when drunk.

"I_I_"

Devin cut off her thoughts in the middle when he was not done with his talks.

"Where do you learn all those kinky stuff? Pleasure pump? Handsome, threesome! You keep on asking to undress my pants to eat and play with a banana. In your drunken state, you even revealed that you have seen everything in the bathroom where we first met. But you have been pretending to be a victim until now."

Leena\'s face flushed in embarrassment. Did I blurt out the entire thing? I thought it was a dream. So it was real from the start. But the only way to escape is to bluff him and pretend that I didn\'t remember anything.

"W_hy would I talk about those things? I live by morals and ethics. I have never seen anything in the bathroom and I don\'t even know what threesome is much less pleasure pump?" Mumbling, Leena fled away in shame without turning back.

"She clearly remembers everything." Smiling at her red turned face, Devin walked out of the room shaking his head. He only left her to fill her stomach now, he was not done with his teasing yet.. Get fresh, we will have another round. Did she really think she can escape?
