Unfeeling

    The dark clouds were finally coming to get me. To suck me up from my world and punish me. I felt the depression inside me. The clouds pushing in on me. With my final breath,"Dmitri..." I whispered.

   I sat at the wooden school desk at my house in Whiskeytown, Oregon. I sighed and got up. "I need something to do!" I groaned.

   Ever since my mom started working again, I was always at home. And now that school was out for the summer it was even worse. I picked up my phone and searched through my contacts again. And still nobody good enough to text.

    I looked down at myself. I had my pink lace bra on with matching panties. I guess I should put some clothes on. I sighed. At least it's something to do, I told myself. I picked up my clothes and walked to the bathroom that was across my bedroom. The bright white bathroom reminded me of a hospital but with a yellow shower curtain.

    I looked at myself in the small mirror over the counter. I leaned over the counter top stare at my bright green eyes. I looked dead. I leaned farther and my hand slipped and I bumped the sink turning the water on, drenching my bra. "UGH!" I groaned. I grabbed the towel hanging on the wall by the sink. I rubbed the water off my breasts then threw the towel down and pulled my shirt on.

    A knock came on the front door and I rushed into my pants. I ran down the stairs and ran across the living room almost tripping over the couch as the consist knock comes again. "Coming!" I shouted, pulling the door open.

   A very sexy man was standing in my doorway. "Hello?" I asked as he stared at me.

 

   "Oh, um hi." He stuttered. "Is Miss Christian home?"

   "Yeah, I'm Levi." I replied, leaning on the door as I studied him. He had perfect green eyes framed with thick dark lashes the same color as his dark hair that reached underneath his eyebrows. He had a strong jaw, that had stubble covering it.

   He looked stunned."Oh, you're Miss Christian?" He bit his full lip with prefect teeth."Well, I'm Dmtri Ararov. I'll be watching you and your mother for the next couple of days."

   I stared at him. "Why are you watching us?"

   "Your father believes someone is after you."

  "My father??? He left when I was young. He never wrote, never visited."I said, in disbelief.

  "Well, he wasn't allowed. Our bosses don't allow us to talk to our families. But since you are in danger from the people we fight,I am here to protect you." He stated matter-of-factly.

  "What? No! NO! I need to talk to my mother before I even speak to you again."

"But Miss-" I slammed the door in his face and ran upstairs to call my mom.

DMTRI

"Ugh!" I groaned. How dare she? Just close the door in my face.

  I walked back to the blue Volvo that The Company gave me. I got inside and just stared at the door. My thoughts consumed me.

  Her beautiful face. Her cheeks were a perfect pink from blushing and her mouth so tiny but shapely and full. She was just tiny. I was six foot three and she had to be at most five foot. She was prefect though. She had a cute face. Small nose, beautiful bright green eyes that poured into my very soul, blonde hair with brown and red highlights that captured your eyes which made you have to look. She wasn't like those girls at the Academy. She was shapely. With curves and breasts.

  I shook my head to clear those thoughts. No, I'm here to protect her. She's not mine. Not anymore.

  I winced. When she had opened the door, my heart had stuttered. Just like it had all those other times. This time was different. I would protect her this time.
