That was the end of our lives. Only one minute had remained. I was hugging Leo when we both heard something hitting the plane. We started panicking more. Me and Leo ran into the cockpit and we saw that we had only 30 seconds. To make matters worse, the beats didn't stop and kept scaring us. Suddenly, someone broke an airplane door and got in. It was mum and after her, dad! They held us and jumped out of the plane. Three seconds later the plane crashed with the land. I was watching the whole event, shocked. When we went down, Leo's parents looked at us angry.

Dad: How many times did we tell you not to trust others?

Leo: That's all my fault-

Dad: Silence! You both let me and your mother down. Are you satisfied now? How would you survive if me and her hadn't saved you?

Leo and me looked at dad without talking. Mum was behind dad, looking down speechless. Not only had we trusted a stranger who was a witch but we also put our lives in danger. I felt so bad trusting someone. When we returned home mum told me and Leo something shocking. We had to avoid one other for our rest of our lives and never talk again. In that way, we would be safe again like the past. I put my hands on my face and I was ready to storm out. Leo was looking at mum like he was going to explode.

Mum: If you two dare to approach each other, you'll have a hard punishment.

Jennie: And you just broke my heart. I will be more in danger because of you. I am leaving.

I yelled and entered my room. There, I found Bill and Marion studying for the competition. Bill seemed like he had never learnt something about the plane. I really couldn't control my anger and I started blaming him for not supporting me.

Bill: Is everything ok out there?

Jennie: NOTHING IS OK. YOU JUST LET ME DIE IN A PLANE WITHOUT NOTICING THAT I WAS MISSING. THE ONLY THING YOU ARE BUSY IN, IS MEETING MARION MORE THAN YOU DO WITH ME. YOU ARE THE PERFECT FRIEND. THANKS!

I shouted like a maniac and I could see the fear in Marion's face. I didn't care at all. I packed my things quickly and I almost had left from the house but my parents were oppressing me to stay. I didn't hear any word and finally left. I had no idea where I was going to live but I couldn't also live without Leo. Leo was my everything. I decided to live in a hotel near the centre. I booked a room and stayed there. I couldn't sleep at night so I went out for a walk. For my safety, I was close to the night clubs in case someone attacked me. I decided to enter a club to see what it actually looks like. I saw many people dance with fun. I sat down and then I waited for the waiter to come. I wasn't in a good mood. While I was waiting, a known voice heard behind me. I turned back and it was Sasha.

Sasha: Omg, is that really you? I thought you didn't like clubs and parties.

Jennie: Mind your business.

Sasha: You keep talking back to me while I am the bully here. Stop this little thing, or else you'll pay for it.

Jennie: Whatever.

Sasha: That's it.

Sasha wrapped my arm and pulled me outside the club. She seemed angry. I wasn't feeling like playing games with her at night. She jumped into me but I was stronger and with only small punch, I pulled her away.

Jennie: I said "mind your business". You don't hear anything, for real.

I told her and left. She wasn't dangerous for me. I left from this place and went back to the hotel. There, I found the lights on and a chair down. It seemed that someone had burst into my room before and searched for something. I called the hotel servants but they said that they had seen no one entering my room. We checked the cams of the hallway but nothing had happened the time I was missing. I went back to my room and repaired everything. I lied down, I switched off the lights and watched some k-drama movies on my phone. While I was watching, I heard someone knocking my door. I stood up and when I opened the door, I didn't see anyone around. The only thing I saw, was a letter on the floor. I grabbed it and entered my room again. I opened it and started reading.

Dear Jennie,
Meet me at the  nearest park tomorrow at 6.00 p.m. I want to talk you about something.

                                                 With love,
                                                Anonymous person

That letter had made me curious. Had this anonymous person entered my room without my permission? The next morning, everything was going normal like the other days. I made some coffee for me and went out to my balcony to drink it. Everything was peaceful out there. I told everything that had happened to my room to the hotel manager and he told me that he would put some bodyguards out of my apartment. I accepted and after all, I went to a park near the hotel. When I arrived, I sat down on a bench and waited. Suddenly, someone sat next to me. He had a hoodie around his head.

???: We have to talk about soemthing.

Jennie: Who are you? Are you another person who tries to drink my blood or something?

He didn't answer. He was just looking down like he had failed on something.

???: Now, our topic is your protection Mrs. Jennie.

Jennie: This is the first time that someone calls me like that. But how did you know that I exist? Why do you want to protect me? I don't even know you.

???: But I know you. Trust me, I am not like these bad guys you have seen lately. I am worst.

He laughed.

???: Ok, I am just kidding. From now, I am your bodyguard.

Jennie: You can't just be my bodyguard without telling me who you really are.

He lifted his head but didn't look at me.

???: I am Steve. I am 23 years old and I have learnt you are a werewolf, right?

Jennie: Yes, how did you know?

Steve: I was also in the same forest with you and I saw how you killed this vampire. You never noticed me of course.

Jennie: So you were watching me?

Steve: No, of course not. I mean, after this, I started watching you.

Jennie: May I ask why you've been watching me?

He hesitated to answer. Then, he looked at me and his face was revealed. He had crystalline cyan eyes and brown long hair. I looked at him fascinated because I had never seen in my life someone with so attractive eyes. He might not have been human being.

Steve: I will tell you only when you trust me totally. Now, be patient. You don't have to pay me for this job. Let's go to the hotel.

When we got to the hotel everyone there seemed to know him. Everybody was greeting and smiling at him, even the manager! Then, I learnt that he was popular for his job and that he had saved many people. That relieved me because now I could depend on him.
