Three Worlds Apart

Chapter VIII, Kamber

I walk back to the shack after the swim meet, I swear I can feel someones eyes on me. I stop, someone is following me.

Shit.

How did I let that happen? I've gotten careless.

"I told you we would be spending our Friday night together." I spin around and bite my tongue to keep from screaming.

Noah.

Noah-freaking-Skotadi.

I can't help but notice how hot he is.

"And I told you we wouldn't." I say crossing my arms and cocking my hip to the side. Noah takes a step closer and brushes a strand of my hair behind my ear.

I smack his hand away, "Keep your damn hands to yourself." I snap. Noah smirks, "Most girls would love this."

I grab his wrist and bend it at an unusual angle making him cry out in pain, "I am not most girls." I say and smile. His eyes are watering with pain and I release him, ah the stupidity of boys will never cease to amaze me. Then again there are really stupid girls so I probably shouldn't talk.

Noah stares at me as I go to walk away.

"Wait." He calls, I sigh and turn to face him. "What?" I ask, "Do you want me to kick your ass as well?" He rolls his eyes, "No," I wave and give him a fake smile.

"Then see ya." I walk away, what an idiot. Guys like that are crazy, the only good thing they are for is eye candy.

"Now now, Kamber. Did you really think I would give up easily?"  I sigh and turn, I knew this would happen so I didn't head back for the shack. 

"Dude, I am warning you. I can knock you out, I can and I will if you don't stop following me." I say. Noah gives me puppy dog eyes.

"Pretty please, you'll enjoy yourself." He says. I grab him by the front of his shirt, "Leave me alone." I growl. Noah sighs, "Fine, if not at your place then how about a restaurant?" 

This surprises me, would it be terrible to go? I sigh, "Fine, but I'm picking the place." Noah grins. I want to punch the look off his face. 

A few minutes later we are sitting down to a nice meal at one of the expensive restaurants in town, "You're paying." I say, "I don't have money with me." Noah looks horrified. 

I may like this flirting but that doesn't mean I'm willing to spend money on it.

Noah reaches out and takes my hand, I try to pull away but he holds on. "Chill, I'm just holding your hand." Noah says. I roll my eyes but don't pull away.

Noah grins, "I told you I always win," He grabs the back of my head and forces him lips on mine, I struggle and try to pull away. He loosens his hold for a moment

"Stop it or you'll never know," He taunts, I growl. I hate this guy but I have to know. He knows and I don't, I have to know. I need to know, I will play along. For now.

I jerk back in my seat. Noah frowns at me, "What's wrong?" He asks, I try not to look at him with loathing. "Nothing." I say shaking my head.

"What did you see?" I stare at him in shock, "See?" I ask. "Yeah, in your vision. What did you see?" I stare at him, "What makes you think I had a vision?" I ask trying to sound innocent. I fail miserably.

"I have them too." He says and my heart stops, why the hell do we share any kind of connection?

"Are yours about good things or bad?" He asks. I bite my lip, I can't keep denying it. He knows.

"Bad." I say. Noah's smile widens, "So you're a-" I cut him off, "A what exactly? What am I?" If it's possible his damn smile get's wider.

"You don't know?" He asks, "You don't know what you are? No one told you? Your parents? Siblings? Anyone?" I glare at him.

"My parents died when I was 14, I'm an only child and no. Nobody told me, now would you please tell me?" I say, Noah smirks. "Now why would I do that?" I am so ready to strangle this guy, watching his head pop off would make my day. 

"What do you want?" I demand. Noah's smirk turns to a smile, "I want your help with something." He says. I roll my eyes, "And what would that be?" Noah rolls his eyes back, "Why would I tell you? It's none of your business."

I growl, "What would I have to do?" Noah grins, "Be my girlfriend." I laugh, "That's it?" Noah shakes his head, "That's all you get to know." I roll my eyes.

"I'll give you two days to decide," Noah says and stands up, he leaves money on the table. I watch him leave, I sigh. 

If this comes back to bite me in the ass, I will break that asshole's face. 

I stand up and go pay the bill. 

Should I go through with Noah's shitty idea? Should I become his girlfriend?

Bloody hell, there is no one I can ask for advice. On the other hand though there is no one other than me to pay for my decisions, what do I have to loose?
