"Is this what you want?!" I lifted my hand to flash him the papers. "Is this why you came here?!" I threw my hand to his chest. "Well then, take it!" I was angry that he toyed with my emotions but instead of taking the papers he threw them. Making them fall like snow before grabbing my hand gently and pushing us both to the bed. His other hand on the small of my back. My breathing escalated and my heartbeat sounded the same of a hunted rabbit. Waiting to be killed. But instead of that Tanner simply put my hand on his cheek. "You seriously can't pretend that didn't happen." He slid his hand off mine as it stayed in the place he put it. He was so close to me. Practically laying my body... and I didn't know how or what way to move or breathe. But I decided to try the Nice approach. Massaging his cheek with my thumb "Tanner.. look, I'm sorry but-." Without another word Tanner stopped me from talking with another gentle kiss that surprisingly got me out of breath. When we split Tanners hands were on my wrists as mine were next to my head. "Luna.." his hand snaked up to hold mine. "Let me take you home with me.. even if it's just a week... just pelase.." his other hand came off my wrist and his body now rested on mine, but it wasn't suffocating.. his skin was smooth and now his hand was on my cheek. "Let me.. take care of you." I didn't know how to respond, I mean how do I? I've only known this man for what? Two days? And yet here we are. Him on top of me, kissing me-. He's on top of me.

My face went red when I realized that as Tanner looked a little confused. "What?" "Nothing! Nothing at all... we're just.." i looked up and down our bodies as he got that I was a little flustered. "I.. haven't... been in this position in a while and it's nothing against you, I mean obviously-. But that's not the point." I exhaled in embarrassment as Tanner laughed. "The point is- I haven't known you for that long so How do I know your not just trying to kill me again?" "Well.. I am here aren't I?" "Yea?.." "and I did in fact kiss you right?" I nodded. "Then tell me why would I kill you? I suppose you don't know, but it's not my type of foreplay." "..Right..." I started sitting up with him sitting across from me on the bed. I rubbed my eyes with a sigh. "Fine.. let me get a bag ready."

~TIME SKIP~

Tanner's house was further away than I thought and i was starting to get sleepy. I still couldn't believe I let him talk me into going. But it's not like I was resisting. It was more of a consensual kidnapping, if that makes sense. So here we were, listening to music while I watched outside the window. But slowly my eyelids started to close. Leading me into oblivion, leaning on the seatbelt for support.

Her head drooped and by that I could tell she went to sleep. It was weird. Her scent became stronger when she slept or more noticeable. Maybe it was because I wasn't distracted by her eyes or lips when she was asleep. And I could actually appreciate it? Either way I got to my house a few minutes after and decided to take her bag upstairs first and come back for her body. "I'll be back my little lab rat." I spoke as if she could actually hear me. The trip was about a minute and I came back to find she had unbuckled herself. I don't remember noting she was a sleep mover. 'Did She wake up?' "Luna?" No response. I smiled and picked her up. Her legs were as smooth as butter and I bet they could cut the same too, but I couldn't do that. She actually meant something now and if I killed her, I wouldn't be able to see her again. I sighed and walked up to the guest room. Going out to the balcony for a while and setting her down on my lap. I started humming while playing with her hair and watching the moon. I don't know why but I like when I can see the moon. Especially in its full moon phase. And yeah I know the stars are pretty too, but I can't help but focus on the moon. It's too big to ignore. "Hm.." I look down to see Luna awake, smiling and looking at the sky. "I love watching the stars..They're always moving, even when they seem like their standing still. And I like pretending I can see them inch away."

"Inch away form what?" She shrugged. "The sky I guess." She hummed a small laughed and I couldn't help but laugh along with her. "Hey Tanner.." "Hm?" "Do you think I should cut my hair?" She pulled out a strand of her hair and lifted it up. "Isn't it getting too long?" I shook my head lightly and grabbed the her hand that held the hair. "Not at all. In fact.." I grabbed the hair and twirled it in my fingers. "I think you should grow it out more." "Pf- really?" "Yes. It will make it easier to grab you in the future."  "What does that mean?" "Time will tell." I kept twirling her hair as I stared down at her. I don't know why but I liked seeing how her body curved. Oh how badly I wanted to just run my hand up the slopes. To feel her in the palm of my hand. But then she'll get startled and run away. Or worse be on alert around me. I sighed and she turned around. "What's wrong?" "Nothing. Just thinking." "Well.." she sat up next to me with her legs across my lap. "This is the first time I've seen you without a smile so, Whatcha thinkin about?" I furrowed my brows and put a hand on my mouth. 'Shit.' I put my smile back on. "Sorry to get you worried but I'm fine. In fact, I think it's time to head to bed." I got her legs off of me and started heading to my room. Only to feel a hand on my sleeve. "Tanner, you can talk to me. I won't judge an-." She stopped talking with a kiss. I didn't want her to think I was sad mop when I was alone so I injected her with midazolom while I kissed her. She stiffened up against my body, with her hands going near my collar. Practically holding onto it while I grabbed her waist before she fell.

We split and I whispered. "Shhh... you're gonna be fine.. you're just asking too many questions." "Tanner.. You-. FFucking-." Once I took out my syringe her body collapsed and I threw her over my shoulder. Going back into the room and neatly putting her to bed. I would've stayed and watched her sleep for a while if it weren't for my phone buzzing. I sighed out of annoyance and walked to the hallway. "Hello?" No response "Hello?" Still nothing. I inhaled through my nose and went to hang up before I heard. "Uh-. Sorry-. Hello! Is this Tanner Grayton?" "Yes, May I help you?" " Hi, My name is Clint Edwards, I work for Adam and he just wanted to know if you will be taking anyone with you tomorrow and who." Clint was a reporter, and Adams new toy. "Yes I will, Luna Youngman." It was quiet for a minute. "Luna? How do you know Luna?"

'Do they know each other?' "She's a close friend. But may I ask how you know her?" "I'm a reporter, it's my job to know people, and I have worked with Luna before, personally." "Oh, so you know she's not one for confrontation right?" "Mhm, which is why it's a bad idea to bring her." "Psh- nonsense. It'll be fine. But I suppose we'll see you there. Bye by-." "Listen Tanner, I don't know what sick game your playing but, if you even care about her just a little bit, you'll leave her alone." he sounded strict but I was having way too much fun to stop now. Besides I won't let Luna out of my sight. It'll be fine.
