Unforgotten (continueing)

Chapter 23

"Why are you holding a strangers hand." Ethan questioned in front of the door.

"he's half asleep, he must be really tired since he's not allowed to sleep on the job." i answered entering the house.

"what kind of excuse is that." Ethan replied ready to remove his hands from me, but instead the boy quickly twisted Ethan's hands pinning him to the floor.

"don't lay a hand on her." he said half asleep.

"what are you looking at....., tell this guy to let me go....I'm bruised enough from saving you." he said looking away from me.

Its quite obvious he's jealous but what for?

"he's my friend." i said, as he quietly let Ethan go.

"if i weren't injured this bastard would be dead....and my arms aching now." he mumbled.

"Sebastian get him a guest room, he needs sleep.."

Sebastian carried him over his shoulder nodding slightly."yes miss Yuka."

"has anyone, arranged for the school to start its repairs?" i asked sitting on the couch pouring myself a cup of tea.

"yes there still working on fixing the damaged part of the building but the construction is going well." Cole answered

"I'm glad, but i need the construction to be done before school resumes tomorrow,..... fix any flaws and mistakes that was taken place in the accident,and i need to know the progress of the kids held captive."

i sipped my tea as Ethan began. "non was injured and i was also able to hack into the security cameras and remove any further footage of the accidents, nobody has mentioned anything and there are no calls to the school." i was a bit relived to find all my worries slipping from my shoulders.

"then I'm sure its safe enough to resume school as well tomorrow." i answered." and i also want to know how Jake is doing." i accidentally said.

i couldn't have possibly thinking of his safety right?

"he is in safe condition" Cole answered

"I'm glad that you all are able to solve a problem like that but i also have my reasons for showing up here. i need you to consider giving up your dreadful life and come with me. I've been ordered to remove you from here by tomorrow evening since this place is no longer safe for you, now that your covers been blown. .......if you cant consider, i am allowed to use force, because orders are orders from my head leader.... i think that you should simply agree with me and start packing before you put your friends and more people in danger."

i couldn't help but think through what he said. it is true that staying here would harm more people, but moving is less a chance for me to investigate.

"i accept your offer and i will be ready to leave at night time tomorrow, i am also capable of making a choice and i choose to attend my last day tomorrow......i would also like to say that I'm taking the boy with me and Sebastian will be working for Jake's family while I'm away. the security to his house must also be doubled and i need back up protection on Molly who has involved her self in my case..... it is likely possible for her to be killed at any time."

"I'm also going with you guys, I'm tired of working as a substitute in such a stubborn school..I'm still wondering what so good about that boy that you cant take me, with you." Ethan said shrugging

"we looked at his files if you want to here about him?" i nodded slightly

"His name is Keith and he has no last name, it was said that he is an orphan but the building he lived in was quickly close down after loss of fonds. he and a couple others were not adopted and disappeared years later. he's a skilled thief, hacker, trickster...and in his record he was found in a pool of blood in a mansion before he was sent to the orphanage.....the rest of his feathers are only his physical characteristics and least important information."

"there you have it, it's quite obvious the boys a killer....for example the way he pinned me down, were not to sure what his plans on doing in this place are, and he's obviously not human... the innocent character and face is nothing." Ethan said.

"he could be right." Cole answered.

"he mentioned his sister disappearing, she was described to have short brown hair." i said calmly "that's why he joined the group you all took down......he didn't even no what was going on, that's why i didn't let him die, i took an interest in him. you all may not trust him but he's my property now."

"what are you saying Yuka....that the girl he mentioned is the same as the one you saw. we can't be to sure." Ethan replied

"i know, that's why we need to find out, i just seem to like him allot." i ended heading to my room."so for now, we should put this case to its end."

it was 2:20 am when i heard my door creak open, i quickly sat up watching Keith closing the door behind him.

"sorry to wake you i had a nightmare." he said smiling "may i sleep on the floor beside you?" i was quiet for a while, then patted my bed gesturing he sleep next to me."its not good for you to sleep on the floor with such a large bruises." i answered seeing the bandages through the 3 unbuttoned pieces in his night gown.

"thank you for saving me Yuka i promise to devote my life to you for giving me another chance" he whispered into my ears causing a chill to run down my spine.

his arms were now rapt around me, my face next to his chest, his skin was very soft, and i felt my self warm up. "Keith" i began no response till i realized we was already fast asleep.

i quiclky fell fast asleep as well.
