Left alone

Chapter 2

I wake up to the sound of Apollo barking and an alarm going off. Beeb beeb beeeeeeb beeb beeb. "Shut up already!!!" When I jump up and slap the thing off on the floor i nearly kiss Blake. "Were you watching me sleep, you creep?!?!" As soon as I said that he started blushing. Badly. He looked kinda cute to be honest.
"I wouldn't say watching you sleep... more like protecting you with Apollo. Mrs. B ordered me too." These people underestimated me and it made me angry.
"I can protect myself!! Right Apollo?!?!" Woof. He just shook his head. Ugh, this boy made me angry.
"I know you can but just to be safe I am your bodyguard, Queen." bodyguard?! Queen?! This is getting annoying!
"Look, whoever you think you are, I don't need a bodyguard and am not royalty! I don't like guys and i want you to stop watching me sleep!" I must've made him mad. His hands were balled up in fists. Apollo probably had noticed the tension between us because of the death glares we were giving each other and the aura in the room. He licked us both until we surrendered in giggles.
"Blake... am sorry, I guess you can be my bodyguard but on a few conditions. 1. Don't put your nose in my business.
2. Your not the boss of me
3. If I have to fight something, don't stop me. Are we understood?" He just stared blankly at me. As if he wasn't listening. Ugh, boys.
"Yes, I understand. So... since am protecting you, can I at least get to know you?" I didn't feel comfortable about that.
"No." He didn't seem to not like that but he let the subject go.
"You need to train so you can fight people that are going to attack us in the future and you probably need some armor to wear around that's comfortable." I didn't respond. He probably saw the answer in my eyes because he grabbed my arm, got up, and started walking. "So... are there anyone else our age? Well, am assuming your my age." He shakes his head.
"Only another girl is my age. Am 16... you?" He's so tall compared to me! I feel so short!
"15. Your older but around the same age. The girl is 16 or 17 Am guessing?" He only nods and blushes a little. Why am I suddenly jealous? It's just a boy. When we arrive at the armory we pick some armor out. I, of course picks light weight but really well quality and good protection (like armor should be). As i try it on it fits like a charm. Blake saw it and he grined.
"Look astonishing, Queen... care to fight?" I could only laugh and nod. I learned how to defend myself since I was five. Skilled at sword fighting, using my fists, knives, bats-really anything you can kill a person with... other than guns. I don't like guns... unless it's a BB gun. Those are simple and you can make people lose an eye with that. Everytime I fought Blake, I won. He was so weak. Making so many mistakes.
"Ha, for one... never turn your back on your enemy your back is a very good area for them to hit and you die. Two, don't trust your enemy... unless it's practice and it's not real... but the key to win is to not trust. Three, your sword work is messed up. I could give you a few more tips and show you how to do it though. He nods sharply and starts walking towards my room.
"I'd like that but am tired and sleepy... don't suppose I can bunk with you? And am not talking about sleeping with you." Hah, if he was talking about sleeping with me it'd be a no. I don't even know the guy. When we get to my room he and I lay in the same bed. Not touching of course. Apollo is keeping Blake from touching me and me from touching Blake. As i fall asleep though, I have the strangest dream.
