Lavender

Chapter 28 - Anger

LAVENDER'S POV 

I instantly woke up letting out the water that must go out of my system as I remembered that I drowned. 

"Thank God, you are okay, Lavender!" Daisy suddenly said before feeling her hugging me as I continue to cough out the water inside me. 

Damn it. I feel like my energy just got drained. I'm lucky someone immediately did a cardiopulmonary resuscitation to me. Suppose there's nobody in this mansion who can't resuscitate me. I'm probably in the process of dying by now. 

Looking up, my eyes landed immediately on Larry who's pacing back and forth while Daisy continues to hug. There are only two of them in here. I wonder where is the one who resuscitated me so that I can thank him or her for saving me from sudden death. 

"Wh-where is the one who saved me?" I asked, closing my eyes so that I can rest for a bit. 

"Where?" Daisy said as if I asked a bad question. "I'm here, you b***h. I did the CPR on you," she said that made my eyes opened.

S-she did what? Daisy is the one who resuscitated me? So it means, her lips touch mine? Both of our lips touched? Damn! 

I feel embarrassed while feeling my heart beats faster just because Daisy did the cardiopulmonary resuscitation on me and that both of our lips touched. I wonder if she will ever kiss me because she wanted to, not just because she must in order to save my life from being drowned. 

And now that I remember everything, I immediately look at Larry who is still pacing back and forth, looking worried about something. Well. Maybe, he is scared now that I'm out of water and awake after being drowned. 

"Are you happy because of what happened, Larry?" I asked before smirking. "Just wait until I regain my strength back, you moron. I will kill you."

Larry stopped pacing as he turned his body to look at me, his eyes looking worried. "Please, don't. I fear that after what I did, it's not just you who's going to beat me," he said with fear in his tone but I raised an eyebrow to him, not believing what he said. 

"Don't lie to me. If there's someone who's going to kill you, it's me. And it will torturous and slow, believe me," I said but Daisy seems to disagree as she shakes her head looking at me.

"I'm going to need to disagree with what you said, Lavender. There is someone who's going to want to kill Larry more," she said, now looking worried as she looks at Larry and me. 

"Who?" I asked. Maybe it's Dad. I remember that Dad warned Larry to look out for me while I'm here in the mansion. "Is it Dad?" I asked, darting my eyes back to Larry who answered me by shaking his head. 

"Then who is it?" I asked, confused while still lying on the cold tile floor of the pool area. 

"It's Damon, Lavender. You know the reason why so don't deny it. I'm afraid Damon will beat Larry badly for what we did on you."

We? I look at Daisy, baffled because of the word we, she said. "Wa-wait, we? You are also into this? With Larry to throw me in the pool?" 

Daisy's eyes looked to the ground as she moved back a bit from me. "Y-yes. I was the one who told Larry to throw you at the pool. I-I mean, it was just a harmless plan but—"

"Daisy, I drowned. Please don't call it a harmless plan because I had leg cramps after being thrown in the water. I can't swim up. If I wasn't thrown in the pool, do you think I will not drown," I said, feeling angry because of what the both of them did. 

"So-sorry. I'm sorry," Daisy said that just made me shake my head, feeling conflicted as I want to be angry but I also don't want to upset her. 

To avoid Daisy, I looked at Larry again who's back at pacing around. "You," I said, pointing my finger to him. "I don't care if Damon's going to beat you good but mark my words, I'm going to make you suffer real hard."

I smirked as I saw Larry gulped but what made me lost my grin is when I saw Damon entered the pool area. He looks cold and distant but I noticed how fast he is walking to get where we are. Until he got close, I expect him to punch Larry or something because I saw him seeing Larry who's not moving, probably because he's waiting for Damon's punishment but what made my heart stop is that when Damon lowered his body beside Daisy who's also looking at what he's doing before putting both of arms in the back of my body and carried me.

"Wh-what are you doing? I'm wet. Your suit will be messed up," I said, hiding my face on his chest. 

"f**k the suit," he said calmly before speaking again. "You look sexy, by the way. I should thank my sister for making you wear a swimsuit, I get to see this hot body of yours for the first time," he said that made my cheeks hot as he continues to carry me. "Though, even if I love your body, I am the only one who can get to see it, are we clear?" 

D-damn. I didn't answer as I feel more flush and overwhelmed. Damon's starting to make me conflicted again. Why does he have to suddenly appear in the mansion just to f*****g tease me because honestly speaking, I'm starting to hate Damon a lot even if I admit, I'm starting to like him just like what I'm feeling with Daisy also.

And even if I humiliated Damon back then for running away, I never thought he would waste his time with someone like me again. I must feel flattered but that is what not I'm feeling, I'm even more curious and wary as I'm thinking that Damon could be just acting and that he only just want to get back at me, only that he never just show his side of being a devil to get back at me for running away from him back then.
