Insane Scarlet

The Wolf

I see so many emotions in her eyes but the main one I see is sadness, seeing the sadness in her eyes makes me go crazy. I need to get her out of here, but how? 

My eyes search around the room until I see a button on the wall next to her cell. I walk over to the button, here goes nothing I say to myself pressing the button. I hear a door slid open next to me, telling me that the button worked.

"What did you do?" Scarlet asks panicked.

"I pressed a button and opened your cell" I say to her, like it's the most obvious thing in the world.

She just looks at me "but why would you do that?" she says confused.

"I believe you" I say walking towards her.

"What do you believe?"

"I believe you that you didn't kill your parents, the emotions in your eyes just say that you are scared and alone" before she can say something I add "I want to help you, I want to know your story".

I'm right in front of her at this stage, I have to look down because of her height but that's okay.

"But if you help me you will get fired form this job" she says worried.

"I hate this job anyway all I do all day is help people, get ordered around, and sit in my office. Its so boring" I answer her truthfully.

The truth is that when I first saw her photo I fell in love with her, when I would go home at night I couldn't stop thinking about her and if I would ever get to meet her. Seeing her like this makes me crazy. All these people had done in this hellhole is hurt her and not listen to her, but I will never hurt her, I will listen to every thing she has to say and makes sure she is out of harms way.

"You will be put in jail because of this or you will put in here for being crazy" she says seriously and worried at the same time.

"Then come with me and we will run away to where no one will be able to find us" I say grabbing her hand.

"But where will we go?"

"We will live in the woods, I know that you are scared of wolves but we can train them to protect us from anyone who means us harm" I say putting my other hand on the side of her face.

She leans into my hand, she just needs someone to love her and listen to her and I am going to be that person.

"How can you train a wolf? They are huge and could rip you apart in the blink of the eye"

"I have trained a few before, wolves know that I won't hurt them and because wolves live in packs they tell other wolves to trust me" I answer her pulling her with me.

"But we need to go now if we are going to get out of here"

"Why are you helping me?

"I want to be that wolf in your song that just wants to protect you, red riding hood" I stop to look at her " and I am serious"

"Okay then, lets go my wolf" I says grabbing my hand and pulling me along with her.
