My bracelet..

He put it right next to me, I looked up to look at him and his blue eyes stared into my boring eyes.He looked so innocent and peaceful , I looked at my bracelet and held it with so much care. I've been so worried for so many hours. But now I had it with me.

'Here, let me put it on you' he said.

I gave my pale wrist to him, when he touched me, it sent tingles down my spine. He was so warm and soft.

' There we go' he stated.

' Thanks' I greeted.

' No problem, cherry' he said.

Even though it's quite annoying that he keeps calling me fruit names even when I tell him not too, I was getting used to it even if I just met him yesterday.

' What's up with you calling me all these fruit names?' I asked.

' I like calling you fruit names.. it suits you... and because fruits are cute?' he said with a confused voice sounding at the end.

' You're weird, how can fruits be cute?' I asked.

' Well you're a fruit and you're cute. ' He replied.

I blushed , but I looked away since I didn't want him to see me.

' Oh by the way I haven't asked what your name was, what's your name?' he asked.

' Iris' I replied.

' Nice name, sounds really peaceful' he uttered.

' So I've been told, but thanks' I continued.

He chuckled.

' What about you?' I asked.

' I don't have a name' he gulped.

I looked at him with disbelief after hearing what he had just said. How come he doesn't have any name. That is so weird, every parent should give their child a name.

' What are you talking about?, everybody has a name.' I insisted.

' Well I don't, what are you going to do about it?' He murmured .

' Stop being so rude to me,' I exploded.

I stood up and just looked at the sea for a few more minutes when I decided to leave, looking at the sea had calmed me down a tiny weeny bit but I wanted to leave. I took a few strides away from him.

' Arsen' he mumbled quietly.

' What did you say?' I inquired with confusion lacing through my voice.

' My name's Arsen' He repeated.

I glanced at him and once again our eyes met, his eyes bored into my dull eyes. I looked down ' Well it was nice meeting you around Arsen... see you around' I retaliated.

I walked away as soon as I spoke and went home, there was no one who could pick me up so I just walked all the way home by myself. It was only a 20 minutes walk from my house to the beach. I thought about today and about him... Arsen, he's so mysterious and weird at the same time. I don't know why but whenever I ask him about something that is related to him , he'd always gets so defensive and rude.But it didn't stop me from asking him more, somehow I was so eager to get to know him, I know we've only met but he has this aura that maybe he can talk to me about himself.

As soon as I got home, I went straight to my bedroom and slept, my mom and dad went out to go shopping so I was the only one left at the house, I was so used to it since they are practically not home every day. Only on the weekends, my dad has a very busy job, he's a business man and my mom was a lawyer.I was literally sleeping when the phone downstairs rang, I zoomed as if I was the superhero called flash. After the 3rd ring I picked up the phone.

' Hello?'I asked.

I couldn't hear anything on the phone, all there was is someone who is breathing heavily.I kept saying hello but no one would say anything.

' This is not funny, I'm going to hang up now unless you want to say something....speak now' I stated.

I waited for a few more second but the breathing stayed the same, I knew there was still someone on the phone, If this was a prank then it isn't funny at all, I was about to fall asleep for goodness sake.

' Since you don't want to speak , I'm hanging up... bye' I spoke.

'Hi' the unknown person on the phone said. It was guy because he's voice was so deep.As soon as I heard him, the voice became so familiar.But then after a few seconds he hung up. Well that was weird how can he just hang up like that. And who is he?

I went up to my room to try and fall asleep again since I was so tired after today. When my phone vibrated, indicating that someone had texted me, at first I thought it would be Evan but it was some unknown number.

' You picked up the telephone' the unknown number said.

' Who are you?' I typed.

' Someone you've met before' it said.

' I've met a lot of people in my life so be specific' I replied.

' Well that's for you to figure out' the person said.

After some minutes of texting and asking who it was I got tired of asking. The person wouldn't tell me who he was not even a simple tiny clue.

' Stop texting me if you won't tell me who you are, I don't talk to strangers' I said.

' Well that's funny, since you're talking to one now, and we've met before' The thing replied.

' See you around though' . the person said.

Who the hell was that guy? and how did he manage to get both of my numbers, Has someone been stalking us ? I should call the police, shouldn't I?but on second thoughts they might think that I'm only exaggerating.







2 weeks later....

Arsen and I have been talking and been hanging out quite often, every time school finishes I'd go to the beach and stay at the same spot which is near the cliff. It has been a habit for me to go to the beach with Arsen. I've learnt that he likes creating blogs about dark stuff and basically about everything, I'd seen his tumblr blog and it was very creative though everything was dark, the only different colour there was, was red. And it was a dark red. I kept asking him a lot of things about him but he'd get rude and get annoyed with me, he'd usually push me away, not physically but verbally, He'd often change the subject . But then after everything, I stopped asking him for a while . Since he'd get irritated and walk away but then he'd show up the very next day or sometimes he wouldn't come at all so I'd end up being by myself in the beach.

Even though it was boring sometimes being myself the waves had helped me to think a lot of things that's going on in my life. Arsen hasn't stopped with calling me with the fruit names but I didn't mind I was starting to like it , weird I know but his weirdness is vibrating off him and I happened to me infected. It was like a Bluetooth.Honestly, I'd blush when he calls me all those names he has for me, in some ways it was a little bit cute. I didn't really have any other names from him apart from dark blogger since he was so mysterious and because it suited him. He would always wore dark clothes as well, but Arsen wasn't only a dark and mysterious person. He'd flirt with me at times.And I'd just laugh at him, It was really great hanging out with him.


But he was just a mysterious person after all..
