Bind to Earth. Alpha

15: Permission

Sado mounted the stairs humming a nursery rhyme she heard from a horror movie. How hilarious it was to her, her lips tore in a huge grin and she slipped into Oxias' room. Her grin faded when she saw the plants had crawled the wall to the ceiling only to join together in the middle of the roof around the bulb. It was a beautiful decoration but she wondered how they had grown so quickly, the roses and lilies with other flowers were as big as her both hands. She only saw such huge flowers in the forest. 

Her eyes grew wide as saucers and looked like they would topple over. 

"How did you do that?!" She approached his back as he was attending to some other plants under the huge leaves of the giant plants. The leaves almost covered all the parts of his body. 

She watched as he paused in whatever he was doing. 

Back still turned to her, he spoke in his usual emotionless, way too matured tone, as Sado would call it. "I've told you times without number to over sneak up to me like that." 

Sado rolled her eyes, mocking him silently. "I love sneaking up to you, who knows, you're evil and could be planning something evil." She moved her fingers like they were malicious tentacles. 

Oxias slowly turned around with a frown. "Then, let's hope you guess wrongly." He walked to the bathroom leaving Sado in pure confusion. 

She sighed. "If you would start speaking like a normal person it would help us. Believe me." Sado followed him in where she found him fetching more water. 

"Will you go and bother someone else because I'm busy over here, as you can't see." He walked back to the plants. 

She followed him preying in an intrusive manner behind him. "Aren't you tired of staying here?" 

She folded her hands behind her back as she doubled over to watch above his shoulder. 

"Wow, it's a nice blue flower." She grinned. 

"Three meters." He clenched his jaw while trying to sound less aggressive, only failing miserably. Sado made him lose control, she was insane and very curious and persuasive. She made everyone lose control. 

"That's a morning glory flower. And no, I'm not tired of staying here as you can see." He glared at her lightly over his shoulder. 

"Anyway, you're still not staying here. Now come on, I was asked to call you, Phineas, Marcus, and I have a word to say to you." She resumed her height.

"He returned his gaze softly to his plant. "I'm not interested." 

She smirked widely, bringing her lips closer to his ears. "What if I say it has to do with those bracelets?" She winked and enjoyed the way he watched her after with interest. 

"Come on, come on, your plants can wait." She tugged on his sleeve. Till he let go of his plant then she freely pulled him to the door and through the hallway. She brought him to the spot beside Phineas and made him sit. 

Phineas rolled his eyes at her actions before he stared at Oxias who looked a bit turned on. 

"As you know, you've spent more than enough time in this house." Marcus started. 

"Wait!" Sado sat up and spun around excitedly. "Before you say a word dear Marcus, lemme have a word." 

She cleared her throat and strengthened up, then she slipped in glasses and grabbed a file as fast as she could. So she looked like a mature professor. 

"Oxias Elias Sideris. You'll have to answer a few of my questions before Marcus moves on." She raised her brows, lowering her lids at the same time. She watched his pale face begin to fit in a perfect angry expression.
