Some call it love, I call it lies

chapter fourteen

Chapter fourteen

In the middle of geting ready and still filling my head up with questions I heard my phone go off, I'm not a fan of having it on ringer and my phone vibrates louder than three put together so when it went off I instantly heard it. I looked at the screen blinking "text". Curious to see who it was from I flipped the phone open.

It was from Robert. "Good morning babe, want me to pick you up so you don't have to ride the bus?" my heart didn't waste any time, it started beating ten times faster. I sent a simple reply back "sure. Thanks. When will you he here?"

About ten minutes later Robert was pulling into my driveway. Quickly I got my bag and sprinted out the door, heart racing knowing I was going to be with him. I could tell he was in a good mood before I even got to the car when I saw that grin that I loved so much on his face. I smiled and got in.

I loved his car. I had always wanted a camaro. His was red, beautiful. It wasn't the normal red, it was maroon red. The color of blood. It was my favorite color and according to his car it was his too. The seats had maroon red seat covers with skulls on them. It made them look wicked. And he had a maroon red cross that looked somewhat similar to the one that had apeared around my neck.

"So how'd you sleep?", he asked. I smiled and answered, "Good, want to hear about my dream?" I looked at him a hint of sarcasm in my voice. He didn't answer so I kept going " It went something like this, I was with my boyfriend. He told me he was a protector and that it was dangerous for me to be around him. I was somewhat scared away, bit decided that I didn't care. Because I love him. Then I fell asleep laying on his chest, happy, and warm curled up next to the person I love. Then I woke up, took a shower and noticed a cross around my neck that wasn't there yesterday but that I thought was beautiful." he looked at me and once again that grin that I love crossed his face, then he said, "I'm glad you like it, but it wasn't meant for you to like it. I meant it when I said you were in danger when you are with me. It's to protect you."

I was still wondering how I got back to my house last night. So I asked, "How did I get home last night?". He hesitated for a second then said, "I read your mind and figured that to avoid you getting into trouble I'd take you home. You were passed out cold. So I got you in the car then parked a block from your house and snuck in your window. Simple.".

As he finished that sentence we pulled into the school parking lot. He parked and walked around to open my door for me. Then we walked hand in hand into the school. We were running a little late so it was only about five minutes until the bell rang, and when it did we were off to biology. Despite everything I knew I was happy with Robert. He made me feel safe, and that's all that mattered to me.
