Very Unexpected Relationship at the Wrong Time... Chapter 23

Song of the Day: Heart Bursts Into Fire by Bullet for My Valentine :) 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My heart stopped beating completely. I now wished I never had to see the light again. Then again that would mean I'm being selfish and a coward. This is not about you! I yelled at myself.

I kept my head down and wished for the ground to swallow me whole. And to make everything disappear from sight because he doesn't deserve this along with his friends. No one does. Angered, determined foosteps slightly shook the ground underneeath, sending their agitated waves directly at me. I could just imagine and feel his crystal like eyes staring at me with a fiery intensity, those two cold marbles flickering with different emotions. They pierced a hole in my soul and waves of sadness slowly tore me apart. Making my heart ache as I felt my ribs crush me with cruelity. My body shivered and I shakily bit my lip. 

I swallowed as Shadow's eyes glanced away to me to Sebastian. I lowered my head and let my red hair fall around me like a shameful curtain. I clenched my hands and gasped as Shadow spoke again,"So I see you haven't killed her yet. Not such a surprise." Shadow's voice was bored and dark.

"Well, I was getting to that, but a little rat got in the way," Sebastain shot back.

I peeked through my hair to see Shadow's reaction and his mouth was curled in a tight line making his blue eyes appear bluer and colder. He blinked and then looked my way, making me immediately drop my head in guilt.  

He gave me a small grin of remorse and then turned his sharp eyes to Sebastian again. "And the skunk in front of me is a totaly failure. Not even his stank keeps the others away." 

Sebastian's dark brown eyes flickered with anger, but he slowly started circling me in a predatory kind of way, but his eyes were set on Shadow. Tempting the predator. And I was the bait. 

Shadow's jaw clenched and he followed Sebastian with unblinking eyes. I stood rigid and cringed whenever Sebastian's foot brushed against my ankles.

"I see that your alone; what a mistake," a self-satisfied smiled crossed his lips.

"Yes, well, I figured I could kick your scrawny ass by myself. Which I will accomplish by the way," Shadow smirked.

"You really have to stop considering yourself higher than others, Shadow. You may be surprised when your opponent may be the one killing you," Sebastian pointed out. He made another circle around me and this time there was a pocket knife twirling on his hands. My eyes turned into huge saucers and I felt my heart stop. At this close range, he could kill me at any moment. He ran a pale finger across the sharp tip and I felt myself bubble up with fear and sadness. 

Shadow blinked and a stern expression crossed his face. My lip quivered and my whole being was focused on that weapon. A weapon that could end my whole life with one strike: my heart.

I felt someone staring at me and I looked up to Shaodow's blue eyes staring at me with love and concern. I practicly melted in that gaze, but my eyes slightly widened at the message they sent me. My mouth slightly opened and he silently nodded. I gave a tiny nod and reluctantly tore my gaze away from his beautiful face. 

Sebastian had a tiny smile of triumph on his lips. My mouth twitched in disgust. "Hmm. I think you should rethink your last answer because I don't think you'll make it out," he stated. "Along with her. Also there are three of us and one of you. Which really gives you no chance."

"I think I can take your friends also."

A short laugh came from my left. I looked back to Jay's eyes filled with amusement and skeptism. The other guy was nowhere is sight and I really didn't care.
