I ran for my life after seeing, well whatever the hell that thing was, I felt arms grab me causing a gasp to escape my lips, I felt the unknown person cover my mouth, "shh." the person whispered.
As the forest grew quiet he lets go and I turned around, "what's your name kid?" He spoke,
"Y/N Custos, and I'm not a kid I'm 22." I crossed my arms and he stepped in the light
"Sheriff Hackett, you're supposed to be at the lodge." He spoke again,
"well the others had a party and I didn't want to be alone, I was looking for my brother." I explained
He took me to the hacketts home to my brother "Jacob!" I yelled in relief,
"god y/n you gotta let me out." He spoke again as Travis stood behind me.
"this feels a lot safer than being out there Jake, I have to protect you, I can lose my little brother." I reassured him,
"lets get you and your brother some new clothes." Travis spoke again, I responded with a nod,
"I'll bring you clothes Jake just stay here please." I spoke with a soft stern tone
Travis leaded me to a room to change, I put on the black sweater and jeans I was provided and put my hair in a ponytail before walking out to see Travis
"Thank you for trusting us." He spoke softly and looked at me
"I trust you, that's all that matters to me." I spoke giving him a comforting smile before he pulled me into a hug
I hugged him back, he was warm and his hug made me feel safe. When he pulled back he used his index finger and thumb to lift my chin and kissed my lips, his lips tasted of rum and strawberries and I didn't mind it at all.
he pulled back and looked down at me "sorry I think I misread the situation." He spoke and was turning to walk away
I grabbed his arm and turned him to me pulling him and kissed him again, "you didn't misread anything Sheriff." I smiled against his lips and pulled back as he took the ponytail down and placed my scrunchie on his wrist
"for good luck." He informed and I kissed his cheek "stay alive." I spoke gently and smiled as he walked away I felt my face turn pink
