Innocence In Darkness

I Care About You

When I walked in, I saw Keith and his eyes were glued on me like there's no tomorrow.

I tried to avoid eye contact because I was a hot mass. I had a bunch of tissues in my right hand that I was using to try and make the nose bleed stop, while I was using my other hand to stay balanced so I don't fall at any moment.

Ana went back to class also there weren't many teacher so as always it was only Keith and I sitting there in awkward silence.

"So are you gonna tell me who I need to kill for touching my baby or what?" Keith had a playful smirk while he teased me around.

"It's your ex lover." I whispered to myself, yet Keith still managed to hear.

He kept quiet which for some reason pissed me off "Oh so it's okay for Tiffany to hit me now wow." A thought came over me.

After a while of silence. Keith leaned in and planted a kiss on my cheek.

"You know she's only jealous of you." He stated as he wrapped his arm around me pulling me closer to him.

"Yeah sure whatever you say." I pulled away from him, then checked if the nose bleed was over, which it was so I blew my nose into the tissue before I throw it away.

"Hey babe let's just ditch cause I miss you and I really wanna go somewhere with you." Keith suggested but before I could answer it in any way, he held my hand and pulled me outside then led me to his car.

"Keith no what if I get in trouble!" I whined scared that my parents might get a call from school.

"Don't worry babe. Now let's go." Keith said while starting the engine.

"Okay I guess." I quietly responded then got in the car.

We were on the road for about half an hour when he finally parked. In front of the car there was a small lake and all around us was either grass or small rocks.

Keith got out of the car then walked over to the lake. He took a tiny stone and throw it far into the lake.

"Come on we should have a competition and whoever losses gives the winner a kiss." Keith said with a joking tone of a little kid.

"Keith behave yourself." I sighed as I walked over to were he was standing. He gave me a weird look.

"When you say behave do you mean like this." He pushed me towards the lake, but he caught me before I fall.
I was breathing heavy and my heart was racing fast from what happed.

"Keith don't hurt me now me please." I half jokingly requested.

"okay now come on, throw one." He said as he throw the stone that he was holding.

After he throw his. I immediately throw mine but since my throw was so bad, it didn't even make it half as much as his did.

Keith turned to face me. He took a couple of steps towards me then he put his arms around my waist and pulled me closer.

"Someone owns me a kiss and she better give it." He said as he came closer so that our faces were only an inch apart.

"Fine fine but you know sometimes you have to be more patient." I pointed out as I got closer.

Keith kissed me but while he did that I felt his hand go down my pocket then he quickly removed it and got off so I didn't really give it much thought.

We walked back to the car and sat on the hood. We sat there and talked for a couple of hours.

"Hey Keith what time is it?" I yawned.

"It's 9:30pm." He answered me.

"Oh crap can you please drive me home before I get in trouble for being late." I started getting nervous.

Keith kissed me on the cheek which kinda calmed me down a bit " of course I'll drive you home so calm down." He said while getting into the car.

I thanked him and got in the car.
I thought the drive was going to be either silent or just blasting the radio however the ride just took a weird turn.

"You sure you wanna go home." Keith had a cold tone, emotionalless eyes that kept looking straight forward.

"Yeah I mean it's getting really late." I tried reasoning with him while trying to say it jokingly.

"I just don't want you to leave." He stated.

"What?" When he said that it made my heart drop.

"Nothing." He paused for a bit "I care about you a lot that's all." Still no answer from me. "I don't wanna leave you yet." He waited for my response but nothing came out. "I guess I just want to stay with you longer but I guess we can't so it doesn't really matter."

We stayed in even more awkward silence.

"Look just forget everything I said." It seemed as if he gave up.

"Ah okay." I tried to sound nonchalantly.

My heart was pounding so fast. I was so nervous and scared, but the entire time only one thought kept repeating.

*does he know about the plan and if so then since how long*
