Chapter 8:
I wake next to Cole again. His face looks so peaceful, like all his worries and fears disappear. I smile to my self. I guess I'm kind of lucky to be kidnapped. I have found the love of my life, something I thought was impossible.
His eyes flutter, and two beautiful eyes lock on me. He kisses me quickly, letting his lips linger for a split second.
I rise, pulling my tank top up, careful not to flash him. But I don't feel the need to be careful. Cole made me feel beautiful. And special. Like I was the reason he got up in the morning.
The sun leaks through his window, exposing all the dust particles in the air. It shone on him, like some god or something.
He smiles as he sits up. I grab my bag and slip into the bathroom before he can. I laugh as he pulls back the door with ease, picks me up, starts the shower, and steps in. I screech with laughter, shivering as the ice cold water soaks us in seconds.
He turns serious suddenly, and we stare at each other for many seconds. I pull his head down and attach his lips to mine. His hands reach my hips, making my skin cover in goosebumps. I love the way he makes me feel, for no one has done this. We kiss until his alarm goes off and our fingers look like prunes.

"Have fun?" My father says, sarcasm thick in his voice.
"I'm asking the questions here." I was not in the mood to deal with his bullshit today.
He nods and sits down at the table. The cafeteria smells of pickles. Gross.
"Why am I here?"
He shrugs. "Because I wanted you here."
I slam my hand hard on the table. "Why am I here?" I repeat.
"That's for me to know and you to find out." Dick.
I stand and walk away, more pissed
off than I was before. Cole was sitting in his bed, reading as always. Since my asshole of a father was so pissed at Cole, he no longer had to work. More time for me.
I slam the door. Cole senses my anger cause he throws his book over, and runs to me, and I instantly wrap my arms around him.
"Why am I here?" I whisper.
He pulls me back, staring deep into my eyes.
"So I could fall deeper in love with you."
