Promise Me?

Chapter Six

Lilith's POV

I know he keeps looking at me. I can feel him watching me while the professor is talking and I'm taking notes. I try to keep my focus but I'm starting to lose control over my mind running a hundred miles a minute.

He's been nothing but mean to me. Why does he keep looking at me like that. Like as if he's trying to figure me out. I don't want anyone to figure me out especially not him. I can't have him or anyone finding out my past.

It'll only haunt them like it does me. Sometimes I still have nightmares about them nights and days that I was tortured. I just hope I don't have one of them dreams any time soon with me staying with the boys.

Then there really would be questions asked and I won't be able to answer honestly.

I didn't even notice it was time to leave until I notice Orion putting up my things for me. "Sorry I didn't mean to space out I just..." I trailed off because honestly what do you say to someone when you were just reliving your past in your head.

He smiles and tells me it's okay and I follow him out the door.

We were headed to my next class when I bumped into someone by accident. Out of bad habits I flinched away and screamed. "What! What happened?!" Orion got in front of me to block me from the person I ran into. "I-I-I don't know man... She just ran into me that's all no hard feelings. I swear."

I looked up to see a beautiful girl with pink hair and brown eyes. I realized what just happened and almost threw myself into a panic attack.

"Hey, no hard feelings! I'm so sorry I just freaked out a little bit that's all" She raised an eyebrow at me and held her hand out. "It's all good love. I'm Delilah but everyone calls me Lila." I smiled at her for not hating me for the way I reacted and reached around Orion and shook her hand.

"I'm Lilith, and this bodyguard of mine is Orion." I said while rolling my eyes at the bodyguard part. She laughs, "Well boyfriends normally do that love." My eyes widened while he started chuckling. I smacked him and shook my head.

"Oh no no no. He isn't my boyfriend we just met." I laugh nervously not even trying to prove my point. "Yeah, uh huh. Denial is the first step to falling in love but whatever floats your boat. I'm going in."

She leaves me standing there with a smirking Oreo. "What Oreo?" He shakes his head and turns to leave. I couldn't help but to watch him leave with my jaw hanging to the floor. Why didn't he deny it like I did.

He was mean to me and now he's protecting me and not saying that we aren't together. I'm so confused.

Once class is over me and Lila already know so much about each other and come to find out we have a lot in common. When we walk out of the class room I didn't see Orion anywhere.

Well looks like I'm going to have to find my own way. As I looked down to see what my next class was Orion took the paper from me and started walking.

"Hey! You can't do that you know." He still hasn't said a word to me and now I'm ready confused with him.

"Hey jerk if you're just going to ignore me then I'll just find my own damn way to class." He stops in front of me so fast I don't have time to stop myself and ran right into him.

"Listen here Princess if I wanted your opinion or to even hear your annoying voice then I would've asked or spoke to you but I didn't so shut up and keep walking."

I couldn't believe what I heard. He had to be joking right? I'm not that annoying am I?

As I start to over think I felt my chest tightening and my vision blurring. I can't breathe. I can't feel anything.

As I try to catch my breath I hear in the background Orions voice telling me he's sorry and to calm down. He tries to help me breathe and holds me to his chest.

When did I fall? Why am I in his arms? Those are the two questions that come to my mind once I finally come out of my panic attack. I never really liked my panic disorder but who does?

"Hey that's it just breath for me. I'm so sorry I didn't mean any of it I swear I just... I can't tell you right now but one day I will. Just know I'm sorry." I looked up at him and I couldn't believe my eyes.

The badass Orion had tears in his eyes all cause I had an episode. Why would he cry for me?

I reached up to his face and wiped the tears away. "Please don't cry. It was just a panic episode. I have them when I'm over stressed or I over think." I smiled trying to convince him that it's all okay.

"See I'm better now. Let's go to class now." I try and stand up but he's hanging on to me like as if I'll fall or like I'm a breakable doll.

"Oreo I'll be okay I promise." I say while pushing him away as far as my arms will allow. He smiles at the nickname and nodded.

"Okay princess let's get you to class." After that we set off to a class turns out we have another class together. Once we got settled in it was like as if the attack never happened.

We talked and passed notes throughout the whole class. It was strange but comforting at the same time. Like as if my attack changed something in him.

Is he only pretending to be nice because he triggered it or is he actually being nice cause he cares?
