-Leave all your theories behind-
I couldn't believe it. I should stop this right now. I should push him away. Right now. But not only could I physically not, but I was relaxing. I was letting him kiss me. I had to remember not to kiss back. Because it was amazing. I had never been kissed like this before. My lips tingled whenever I felt his lips brush against mine. Which was literally all the time.
I had to keep reminding myself that he was only doing this to get my secret out of me. But god he was kissing so greatly I would have collapsed if he wasn't holding me by the shoulders. When I opened my eyes I was surprised he had his eyes closed.
What was that thing Blaze had said? You know he likes you if he closes his eyes when he kisses you. But that wasn't possible. Damon was a hot eighteen year old bad boy, who had probably slept with more girls then I had books. And who was I? A pathetic sixteen year old love sick teenager who daydreams because she can't face the harsh reality she has in life.
But I couldn't get away from the kiss. So instead I decided to wait until he gave up. That didn't mean I didn't enjoy it, because hell I did. I was even disappointed when he pulled back. I put on my best angry face on.
"What the hell was that?" I squeaked. I was trembling. He looked gobsmacked. Speechless.
"How could you do that to me? Do you have any idea how scared I was when that freak pinned me against the wall earlier? Do you have any idea how much I don't want to talk about my brother?" I raged.
A smile reached across his face. "So this is about your brother" he smirked. I couldn't believe he was still being this unsympathetic.
"You don't know anything about me!" I yelled having it come out a little bit harsher then intended.
"Which is why I'm asking" he commented once the echo of my yell was over. I began storming off again.
"Jinx just please tell me" he said softly behind me.
"Why do you even care?" I asked ignoring his question.
"Because I'm just interested in you" he said, and I could tell he was smirking to himself. I didn't know what to say to that line, but I could tell it couldn't have been what I suspected.
"Fine then. You want to know? My brother is a killer. Yeah that's right. He murdered his past five girlfriends. He got found out by the police and then ran" I said knowing I was defeated.
He thought hard to himself. "So why do you feel guilty?" he asked. I gulped because this was always the part I found hard to tell people.
"Because I was the one that called the police" I said silently. Damon frowned.
"You shouldn't feel guilty because you called the police on a serial killer Jinx, it's common sense" he said reassuringly.
"Really? Is it really?" I asked bitterly. "Have you got a brother or sister Damon? I suspect you don't, because when you have a brother or sister you get annoyed, you fight, but you'd do anything for them. Ollie came to me that night; he told me what he did. How the police were looking for him, how they thought he did it, but really he hadn't. He told me he couldn't tell me why, but that he didn't do it. He trusted me!" I cried.
"Jinx-"Damon tried to say, but I interrupted quickly.
"And I didn't believe him! I called the police! I watched his face as he heard the sirens and ran. I sold out my own brother! Do you have any idea how guilty I feel? How I lay awake at night hoping that he's somewhere and that he's safe. Because if anything were to happen to him it would be my fault" I sobbed.
I put my hands over my eyes willing the tears to stop. Hoping that I could hold them in.
"Jinx" I heard Damon say. I ignored him.
"You happy now?" I asked quietly when I had managed to keep the crying to a minimum. I felt two warm hands take a grip on my shoulders and pull me up.
"I'm taking you home" Damon said softly. I didn't protest. I looked around the forest. I couldn't believe how dark it had suddenly got. I was glad Damon was here, I didn't think I would be able to face it alone like this.
There was a long five minutes of not talking in the walk back to the house. Until I was the one who broke the silence.
"Why did you kiss me?" I asked in huge curiosity. I didn't expect an answer at first. It seemed like I wasn't going to get one for a long time.
"Had to get it out of you somehow" he mumbled. That sounded a little insensitive. But Damon was just like any old boy. Insensitive, jerky and cocky. All the hot ones were. Except for those few rare guys like Ash and Ryan.
When I looked up from my hair hanging over my face Damon was staring at me. "What?" I questioned making sure I didn't have anything on my face.
He shuddered to himself for a minute. "You said your brother's name was Ollie?" he asked ignoring my question. I nodded and frowned at the same time. I was annoyed he was bringing it up again and that he was still so interested.
"Go home Damon I'm sure my father doesn't expect you to stay overnight" I ordered as we approached the house. I didn't let him contradict as I opened the door and slammed it back in his face. Then I rested my back against the wall and slipped down to the floor.
What a jerk! Stupid Damon kissing me just to know my secret. The nerve of that guy! He just doesn't have any idea! Oh I want him fired so badly, but even I'm not that mean. He probably needed the job, all of his other employers probably got so annoyed they fired him too. Not that it would be hard. If I went to dad right now and told him Damon just kissed me, he'd go insane.
I didn't want Damon fired deep down inside. He was really the only person I had poured out feelings like that on. That didn't change the fact that he was a jerk though. I tried to piece together everything that had just happened.
Why the hell had I told him about my brother? I mean seriously why did I give in? Erg! I'm so stupid! Well it's not like I didn't know that before, but still!
I decided to occupy myself with homework of all things. I trudged up to my room and settled down on my bed. Mum had agreed to the new satellite dish, the fitter was coming tomorrow. So I only had to go one more day with no TV thankfully.
I looked up from my textbook at the wallpaper. This house didn't feel right. It felt too big and mysterious. I could see the little rip in the wallpaper, so growing bored of English homework went to go and yank it.
It left a triangular white trail behind it. Why did I do that? But something distracted me. As I ran my fingers along the wall I felt it dip. There was no wall behind the paper at one point.
I pressed my fingers into it and I nearly got through to the other side. Nearly there-
"Jinx!" I heard an alerting voice from the door. It was Blaze.
"What?!" I yelled taking my hands away from the wallpaper.
"We're ordering pizza" she answered quietly. I didn't know why I was so angry. I forgot completely about the wallpaper and thought about my stomach. I was hungry. I followed after her down to the living room leaving my theories in my creepy bedroom.
