Chapter 3~Saviour

|Chapter 3|*Saviour*|

The night is deafening

when the silence is listening

and I'm down on my knees

and I know that something is missing

because the back of my mind is holding things I'm relying in

but I choose to ignore it because I'm always denying them

Saviour- Lights

Arielle's P.O.V

Silently I continued to follow James out of the meadow and onto the roads, taking a look at the surroundings I came to the realization that I never came to this part of town before. While waiting for the signal to turn red so we could walk, I noticed the glassy shiny buildings, the flashing designer clothes people wore as they walked past us, the castle-like houses and the expensive curvy cars.

James turned to look at me, his blue eyes boring into my green ones.

“Never been to this part of town either?”

“N-No, not really.” I replied as I continued to look around still waiting for the signal to turn red.

He chuckled, “you really haven’t been living, have you?” The cars zoomed past us refining my hair into a bird’s nest.

I pulled my hair out of my face and said, “I-I do, I ju-just don’t go out mu-mu”

James interrupted me, “Come on, let’s go before the signal turns red again.”

As we walked the across the road I realized I had no idea where we were going and what we were doing here at this God Forbidden time.

“Ja-James, what are we do-doing?” I asked.

“Well munchkin, that’s for me to know and you to find out.” 

“James, seriously.” I said frustrated that I wasn’t getting the whereabouts of the current location. On top of that, how could I possibly reassure myself that James was not some serial killer or a pedophile? I have only known him for a day or two and they say the ones that stand out the most, are the most dangerous ones. So what if James was just leading me down to this alley to do whatever the hell he wants? I was definitely not planning on doing the unknown deed with a stranger. Hell to the no.

I shuddered at that thought and stopped my foot from going any further with a stranger.

“Munchkin, come on we don’t have all day!” said James from behind his shoulder as he continued to walk ahead of me.

I stood there in all my silence just hearing the birds chirp above me and the cars as the honked their way through the traffic.

“Munchkin? Ohhh Munchkin?” James snapped his fingers in my face as if I were a two year old baby that lacked listening skills.

“What?” I tried to ground out in a bitter tone, but it came out as a squeak instead.

“Are you gonna be standing there the whole day?” He asked standing in front of me, arching his right eyebrow.

I shook my head, not to say no, but to get rid of these monstrous ideas inside of my head. I hoped that shaking them away would make them disappear. But I knew better than to find comfort in things that existed inside of my head.

“Hey, Arielle, I’m not some pedophile who’s going to have his with you. You should know better than to think that way.” James said as he stepped one step closer to me. His rough fingers lifting my chin.
