A Barian Love Story

Chapter 22

Alit's POV:

I quietly walked down the tunnel. What did Iris think of the kiss? I never got to ask her. I reached the room. Iris was looking at the wall, her back facing me. I quietly walked over to her. I quickly placed my hands, on her eyes.

"Guess who?"

She laughed. We would always do this with each other.

"Alit, you meanie," she said, still laughing.

I let go, and she turned around.

"Iris, I..."

She looked at me, curiously.

"Yes, Alit?"

"About that kiss..."

She smiled.

"Yes. I did mean it."

~Iris's POV~

Alit and I have been best friends, since we've been ten. We know everything about each other. We always hang out together. We always do everything together. That was probably why, it was so obvious that we liked each other. That, and I trust Alit more than I do with anyone else.

"So this is, Alit..."

Oh no. I can't let Rocket get to me. Alit smiled. I made myself smile. Every time Rocket talks to me, pain runs through me.

"Iris, are you ok? Your face is all pale."

"Yes, I'm fine."

No, I wasn't. The pain was unbearable. Suddenly I fond my self on one knee.

"Iris!"

"S-Stay b-b-back," I said, my voice shaking.

He ignored me, and kneeled down beside me.

"Iris, what's wrong?"

"Aw...He really does care for you!"

"SHUT UP!" I screamed.

Alit jumped back, surprised. I suddenly felt light headed. My eyes started to close.

"Iris!"

I should've stopped him, but I didn't know how powerful I really was. If I did, what would've happened?
