This kitty has claws

Chapter 9- James

            JAMES

I looked at her as she seemed to be in her own world, it had been around an hour since she fell against me while running away from someone. I had taken her back to mine and made he hot chocolate. I sat down beside me and she looked at me,

“Hey how about you tell me what happened?”

She looked at me and gave a small nod and started talking.

“I was at tr-training and then I got a text fr-from Tommy saying he had-had gone home because he felt sick. So I-I started going home but I-I hadn’t brought m-my bike. I walked b-b-but then I heard footsteps behind me so I confronted the person. B-B-Bbut I don’t think he w-w-w-w-was human. His eyes were- were so…

And his mouth was-was…” I stopped her.

“What do you mean he was not human?”

“Well nobody lo-l-looking like that could be human—“

Suddenly she looked at me and her eyes widened in surprise, “I-I um, well what I meant is that it was scary.” 

Something was wrong, I could feel it, she was lying but about what I didn’t know.

Instead I nodded and held her in a hug as she lightly shacked and cried everything out.

“Are you sure that you don’t want a ride?” 

“Yes, I’ll be fine.” Kristina smiled at me and put on her coat.

“I don’t want you walking outside by yourself at this time. It’s ten pm.” I insisted, I didn’t want her walking alone in the dark after what had happened.

“Don’t worry James, please I’m capable of taking care of my self.” He green eyes stared at me right in the eyes as she smiled slightly annoyed.

I shaked my head and tried to reason with her stubborn mind, “Look, if you wont let me give you a ride then I’m going to walk with you.” I narrowed my eyes waiting for her response.

Slowly she cocked he head to the side, giving me an astonished look.

After a long look she sighed and zipped up he jacket, “Thanks, bye!”

Without looking back she closed the door on my face. She isn’t going to get away that easily.
