Bewitched His Soul

Enzo had come to watch the movie so that he could spend more time with Hazel, but he was a little bit angry when she chose to sit with Esther. He could not miss this opportunity and would have done something to convince Hazel to change her decision but luckily Logan beat him. Enzo was impressed when Logan unknowingly helped him by telling him about the lead actors sitting arrangement.

"Why don't you want to sit with me?" Enzo asked sternly. Hazel wanted to say that he  makes her nervous but instead she lied, "Because I wanted to  fangirl about the movie with Esther."

"You can do that with me, too," Enzo stated.

Hazel looked at him as if he had cracked a joke. Seriously, this guy probably did not even know the name of the movie they were watching. How can she talk to him about dresses the actress wore in the movie, or about the most heart touching scene where the hero came to the heroine's house at midnight in the heavy rain and threw pebbles on the window confessing his undying love.

"What? You don't believe me?" Enzo frowned.

"When was the last time you watched a movie?" Hazel asked. Enzo was about to say something but Hazel cut him off and continued, "No, not sci-fi or documentaries."

"Hmm, maybe more than a decade. Come on, you have to agree that these types of movies are a bunch of junk, why will I waste my time watching them?" Enzo replied.

"Then what are you doing here?" Hazel rolled her eyes.

"Maybe I'm here to see someone," Enzo said in a low sensual tone.

Hazel was staring without blinking her eyes, Enzo thought she was getting the clue and started blushing. But what she did next was totally unexpected.

"You like that actress, too?" Hazel was shocked.

God, were both brothers pining for the same woman? Will they have to compete for her attention?  It looks like this may not end well. She thought Logan might win this even though Enzo was more handsome and intelligent compared to his brother, but Logan was charming and he knows how to make anyone feel special, whereas, Enzo normally looked at everyone as if he was a king, ready to punish anyone who broke the law. She did not want to admit it out loud but Logan had an upper hand when it came to women.

Enzo opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly closed it and took a deep breath. He was about to snap at her, but he controlled his anger as he did not want to ruin the atmosphere.

"No, you are mistaken, I didn't even spare a glance at the actress," Enzo said sternly.

"Oh okay, then it's for Esther?" Hazel  thought she guessed it correctly this time .

Enzo tightened his fists and thought there was no hope with his girl. He should have known that if Hazel was smart then she would have already guessed it years ago.

"Yes, it's for my sister Esther," Enzo said, gritting his teeth. Hazel did not understand why he looked so pissed when they were just having a friendly chat. She decided not to let him bother her and turned towards the screen as the movie started.

This movie was very emotional and romantic. The acting was good because it made you experience all the feelings they were undergoing. It was a story about a girl whose fiance dies at war and then she finds love with her next door neighbor who was a rock star.

Hazel was too involved in the movie when she felt someone lightly running their fingers on her hand. When she turned towards Enzo he took popcorn from her packet and popped it into his mouth.

"Why don't you eat from your packet ," Hazel asked.

"I don't like the taste of mine ," Enzo replied.

"Fine, let's exchange," Hazel gave her packet to him and quickly turned towards the screen in fear that she may miss something.

A few minutes later, Enzo's hand came towards her packet. As soon as Hazel turned toward him he only spoke even before she could say something,"I realized that I prefer the previous one."

"Then you can have both of them," Hazel  decided to drink her coke.

Enzo was really getting bored five minutes after the movie started. If Hazel was not sitting with him then he could have walked out of the theater a long time ago. He wanted to talk to Hazel but it looked like she was ready to yell at him if he disturbed her again. But should he do it? He liked seeing her furious, her small frowny face, eyes narrowed and nose red. She tried to act like a tiger but she looked like a cute cat which made him want to pat her head.

Enzo poked her arm and Hazel pretended not to notice but he was persistent in his actions.

"Enzo, what is your problem?" Hazel asked in a helpless tone.

"Are you enjoying this movie?"Enzo asked.

"Of course, it's very good, I can even watch it again," Hazel replied.

"Why do you like this movie?" Enzo scowled.

There was nothing that could impress him. Some of the dialogues were so corny that he felt like laughing, but he did not dare to, as Hazel was looking so sad during the break up scenes.

"Everything," Hazel's  eyes were twinkling as she looked at the scene on the screen where the hero was singing  karaoke during their first date.

"You want your boyfriend to do all these things?"Enzo asked curiously. Hazel nodded her head completely immersed in the movie.

Enzo had a troubled expression hearing her declaration. So this was Hazel's type of man, one who was sweet, polite, respectful, wrote songs for her, sent long sappy messages, cooked Sunday breakfast and left post notes all over the house. He was never like that and even if he tried hard, he knew he cannot be the guy next door type of man.

What Enzo felt for Hazel was something dark and possessive. It consumed him entirely, mind, body, and soul making his life revolve around her.

The movie ended and Hazel was quite satisfied that she watched this movie upon Esther's recommendation.

"Where are Logan and Esther?" Hazel asked as she did not find them.

"Maybe they already went outside, let's check," Enzo stated. After a few minutes, they saw Esther walking toward them looking annoyed and angry, whereas Logan looked smug as he was texting on his phone.

"What happened to you?" Hazel asked, concerned.

"Logan was right, that actor is a jerk. I talked to him but he dismissed me so rudely, and when the others requested for an autograph he left saying  he needs to get a good rest for tomorrow's ad shoot," Esther's hopes were crushed and she made a decision to never watch his movies again.

What she did not know was that all the celebrities never acted the same way they acted on screen.

"That actress was all over Logan and she even kissed him. She gave her number to him and told him there is a pool party tomorrow and she wants to see his hot abs," Esther continued and repeated the exact words the actress said.

Logan smirked and wiped away the lipstick stain on his jaw which he had failed to wipe.

Enzo looked bored as he had no interest in his sibling's affair whereas Hazel was trying to console Esther who was flaring up and badmouthing that actor.
