Midnight Shadow

Natalie's POV
My eyebrows knit together as I process what he said. His house? He has a house?
"You have a house?", I ask confused.
He nods and motions me to follow him. We both walk down the deserted morning streets and make it to a forest, which was 4 minutes from the alley.
We stop outside of it and he turns to me.
"My house is in here.. It's about 2 miles south and it's a place across a river", he says.
"K", I say and we start walking.
"Nobody goes there.. So that's why I go to the alley", he says after a minute of silence.
I hum in response so he knew I was listening.
It was about 9 minutes later when Liam started speaking.
"You never really explained why you are bullied... All you said was that you think your ugly".
"I don't really know why... My own parents don't like me", I sigh.
"How about you?", I ask.
Liam gives me a confused look and I chuckle.
"Where are your parents?", I continue.
"Dead", he states bluntly and stops walking.
"I didn't mean to.. Offend you", I say while stopping to.
He shake his head and motions me to come over to him with his hand.
"Get on my back", he says.
I do as he says and not 2 seconds later, he's running so fast. It feels like I'm in a jet!
I shriek and hold on tighter. I hear him chuckle as he starts to slow to a jog. He jumps the river and takes me off his back when he stops.
I look at the cabin before me. It was simple, old, and cute-ish.
"Nice", I say aloud more to myself.
He walks to the door and places his hand on the door handle. Before he turns the handle, he freezes.
"Liam", I question a little scared.
"Someone's here", he says lowly.
A growl escapes his throat as a voice speaks from behind me. Directly behind me.
"Ah Liam, another girl?".
