The Wall We Built

Chapter 31

Lydia pov.

We walked into this huge room were what seemed like thirty people were dancing and chatting. As we walked across the floor I swear almost everyone's eyes were on us. It creeped me out.

We got over to a group of people and Oliver introduced me to a few people that he knows. "Thea, Isaac, Ryan... This is Max, Angel, Eve, and Lydia." He pointed out all of us and we shook hands.

Eve, me, and oliver made our way to another group of people and he introduced us to Price, Brandon, Kyle, and Maddy. He did as he did before pointed all of us out... Introduced us and we shook hands.

Eventually we met more and more people that Oliver knew... Some were from his family and some were from his alliance of hunters. Soon enough we snook off and got away from all the people.

Oliver brought me to a field... There were a few trees that lined it in the distance and a fence that lined it far away. I ran a little ways to the green field and laid down to gaze up at the stars.

Behind me I heard Oliver laughing at me. He walked over and laid down next to me... We stared up at the stars in silence for what seemed like hours.
He turned and looked over at me "You know you look beautiful under the moonlight." I smiled and I could tell that I was blushing.

I looked back up at the stars... Next to me I could feel Oliver moving slightly closer to me. As he inched closer I felt our hands slightly touch. I moved my hand closer to my side... Oliver reached over and slowly slid his hand inside of mine.

His hands were cold... Comfortable... I loved it. I wouldn't want to admit this but it was... Nice.

.................

After lying in the field for about an hour we made our way back to the party. We met up with eve, angel, and max.

"Where did you two sneak off to??" Eve asked with a voice that I could tell what she meant by the question.

"No where... And I know what you are thinking Eve... No nothing happened gosh." I smiled.

For a few more hours we hung out and danced and had fun. Finally it was about ten o'clock and we decided to head home.

.................

My dad had a trip for work that he had to go on... He went to Alaska. I was alone... Monica was still at our moms and refuses to come home for some reason.

I was laying in bed and I herd something upstairs... Something dropped to the floor and made a loud crash. I grabbed my phone and slowly walked upstairs.

"Hello... Who's there?" I said as I walked slowly. "Hello?"

When I got up the stairs there was a man sitting on the couch. "Hello... Lydia." His voice was deep and unfamiliar. "I have a message for you... You need to watch your back... You need to be careful. There is a battle coming up that you do not need to be apart of... Just stay safe."

All I could say was "Who are you... Wha... How did you get in my house?!?!" He turned and looked at me... Before I could repeat my question he ran what seemed like faster than light.

I fumbled for my phone and called Oliver instantly. He answered after the third ring. "Hello?"

"Oliver... Oliver!!" I was officially freaked out.

"Lydia... Slow down what's wrong."

"There was a man... He was in my house... Oliver just please come over here." I was terrified.

"I'm already on my way." He hung up the phone and I locked all the doors and waited for him to show up.
