Not So Sure I Wanted To Know That .

I let out a breath and watch it turn into a white puff. I was hugging my knees to me by the window seat, just looking outside at nothing. It was raining outside and probably thundering but the Beats on my ears playing 'Iridescent'. I don't really know why, but this song is kinda sticking to me. I like it, in it's weird and depressing way . Kinda how I feel, you know. .... Wow .. I'm getting deep. 

I moved my head to the door and stared for a while. I've been doing that for a while now. I really don't know what I'm expecting after the convo I had with Frankie last month. She didn't exactly say anything to me after that, actually she pretty much disappeared. 

I knew she wasn't human. 

 But as for what she was exactly , I have no clue. I sighed and looked out the window again, jumping 20 feet in the air like the ninja I never knew I was when a figure appeared on my front lawn. I blinked a few times and blew a lock of hair from my eyes. I looked out the window again and nothing was there. 

I could have sworn ...

Wait, what was that squeaky noise ? Why does the house seem so silent now ? I hurried locked my room door and stood closer to the window, watching the bottom of the door. I was probably just paranoid. Right ? Nothing is outside .. or inside the house . Why did Becca have to go to that stupid college expo with Auntie ..?! Now I'm screwed !

As soon as I swear things couldn't get any worse, a shadow casts over the door and stills there. I swallow my spit nervously and stare at it. Maybe it's Becca trying to scare me. It's working you whore of book-tical knowledge ! Suddenly the door knob starts to twist violently and I jump back, hitting up in the window seat. 

There's no way in all that is prada that I'm going to wait to see what's on the other side of THAT sanity ! Audree OUTEY ! I opened my window and got soaked instantly by the rain blowing in, but I ignored it and got onto the slippery roof. OKay ... this is really high for a one storey house. I look for a nice little place to soften my landing CUZ I SURE AS HELL WASN'T STAYING UP HERE FOR IT TO KILL ME !

I hear the breaking of wood and decide to cut my losses. I jump and aim for the bushes. Sure I get scraped up and REALLY SOOOREEE but I was still able to move so I ran. 

Barefooted 

In a storm 

-________________________________________________________________________-

I kept running and running. Sure I looked practically insane, running from something that probably isn't following me but HEYYY ! I DO RANDOM SHIT ! 

Soon, I stopped to take a breath. Damn , running is hard.

"Steph?"

I twirleed around and came face to face with Kallan. He was drenched with his head cocked to the side in confusion. Soo..... CUTE ! KYYAAAA >~< ! QUICK, SAY SOMETHING ! "Ahh , yeah ?"

"Why are you in the rain ? Barefooted ? You're going to get sick." He said. Was that concern ? He took a step closer to me and I panicked when the convo between him and Frankie flooded back to me. I wasn't safe with him. 

"Ah, well yeah, I uh, do that from time to time . Ah, catch ya later, Kallan !" I said nervously and turned to dart away when a strong grip was palced on my elbow. 

"Steph..." But he didn't get to finish because there was an inhuman growl a distance away from us that shook me to my core. I found myself clinging to Kallan, shivering in fear, "Let's go." 

He took me into a princess hold and ran off with me. I distracted myself with questions as to how he smelt so nice with all that rain on his skin? How could he run with my extra weight .. not that I was weighty , I'M NOT CALLING MYSELF FAT !, I just weigh pounds like any other person. Heavy pounds too. Not to mention my awesomeness aura that is like well a TON too. 'Cause I'm hella awesome . I am. Yeah, that's right  and God, do I need help . 

"Kallan?"

"Shh, Steph."

I hadn't even realized that he had us behind a tree, me behind him and him looking around the tree for whatever it is that made that growl. I tightened my fist on his broad chest and clung to him. I really don't understand how I got so weak-kneed all of a sudden and I suddenly need to be by Kallan and I feel more safe here than I ever felt anywhere...not even in my dad's arms. And that's saying something cause my dad gives the best hugs and his hugs make ANY bad hair day better and there I go again ... 

"Kallan ? What ... what are you ... and what are we hiding from?" I whispered, half hoping he didn't hear, half dreading he did. 

He tensed for a moment and then looked down at me from over his shoulder. He furrowed his eyebrows for a while then turned to look around the tree again. "I'm not human. That's all you need to know right now."

"Not human as in alien not human, or not human as in ... uh, sparkly dude with a mosquito complex not human ?" I asked somewhat irked that he was going to be like those weird ass secretive people you see in the CIA on TV. 

He looked at me again, almost to check my sanity then shook his head and sighed, turning his full body to me. "I'm not a vampire," I relaxed a bit, "if that's what you were refering to, you Twilight junkie. Frankie .. uh, well , she'll tell you. But in the mean time, you wanna tell me what Jake wants with you so bad he's willing to hunt you down for it?"

"Depending , whose this Jake of which you speak?" I stared at him, blanked faced. 

"He's uh, he's what you'd call a guardian per say . Or maybe an enforcer, either way, yeah, he wants you dead or not breathing or not existing, really which ever comes easiest." He answered. 

I stared at him for a while. "I ... NO ... COMPRENDE ! I haven't even MET this Jake and he ALREADY wants to KILL me ???!! Le f**k ?!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO , It is NOT going down like that !" 

"Oh yes it is." 

He's not Frankie.
