Kat is a shy bookworm. Ash is captain of the football team. How could their worlds possibly collide? It all starts with a party that gets out of hand. A small friendship blooms and it quickly turns into a beautiful romance. They seem to be inseparab...
I got up from my chair silently and cleaned off the table. I went into his living room and grabbed the book To Kill A Mockingbird and walked into the guest bedroom. I turned on the hot water for a bath. I was stressed and worried, but somehow, I felt some satisfaction. He was not taking care of me out of pity, but for love. The bathtub had tons of bubbles. I put my hand in the tub but could not see it. I took off my clothes and slipped into the bathtub. I had the lights off and only candles in the restroom. I turned off the water, closed my eyes, and sunk deep down into the water.
"Kat, are you in your room?" Ash practically whispered.
I heard his voice, but not what he said, so I leaned my head up and called his name.
"Ash, is everything alright?" I said peeking my head out from behind the shower curtain.
He walked into the restroom and closed the door.
"Someone is in the house. Be very quiet and stay still."
He looked at me and I nodded silently. I grabbed the towel and wrapped it around my body. He closed the door and locked it. I blew out the candles and we sat in a corner silently. The lights came on in the guest bedroom and I covered my mouth to keep my breathing quiet.
He whispered, "Get in the bathtub, close the curtains, and don't move." I did as he said and stood in the bathtub.
"Who's in here??" A man said in a frightening voice.
Ash put his index finger to his mouth and then opened the door quickly, holding his hands up.
"I am right here, what can I do for you?"
When he saw the man's face, he remembered that it was the same man that had killed his parents when he was only thirteen. The man was holding a pistol towards Ash.
"Shoot me then, go ahead," Ash said, calmly.
The man held his gun up to Ash's head and put his finger on the trigger.
"No!" I said, jumping out of the shower. I fell, twisting my ankle. Good thing I put on my clothes before walking-well tripping-out.
The man removed the gun from Ash's head, shocked.
"Well, well, well. Why, hello there, Ms..." the man stopped, waiting for me to give my name.
"Kat, my name is Kat." I said and stood up.
He was about to take a step toward me when suddenly, Ash punched him to the ground.
"Don't you lay a finger on her."
The man laughed and wiped the blood off his lip. He got up and punched Ash in the stomach and kicked his face on the way down.
I ran downstairs and went into the kitchen, then hid in the drawer under the sink, a knife held in hand. I heard Ash scream and knew that I had to take action or else something really horrible would happen to Ash. I walked around the corner of the kitchen and saw Ash trying to get up off the floor from upstairs, but the man was out of sight. I took a few steps closer to the stairs and felt a man grab my arm.
"Let me go!"
I tried to slap the man, but he caught my hand, and the knife I was hiding fell, and he grabbed it then put it to my neck. I bit his hand so hard-maybe too hard-it started to bleed.
I am going to need to mouthwash a lot before I go to bed.
I pulled away from his grasp and ran to Ash.
"Thank god you're okay Kat," Ash said with a low, relieved tone while gasping for air.
I noticed a huge bruise on Ash's back.
"Oh my..., Ash what did he do to you?"
I covered my mouth.
"He hurt me pretty bad, Kat."
Then, I ran downstairs. The man was coming back.
"Get out of this house!" I heard Ash say from the staircase.
Ashwalked towards the man and put a gun to his head. When he led the man to the front door, he shot him in the right ankle.
"That's for my parents!"
After that, Ash opened the door and literally kicked the man out of the house. The man ran off into the night. When he was completely gone, Ash turned around and looked me in the eyes, worriedly.
"Kat, did he hurt you? Are you okay?"
"You just got beat up by the man that killed your parents and you want to ask me if I am ok?"
"You're right.", he said, softly laughing.
"So where are you gonna keep that 'weak-little' pistol?"
"I'm going to add it to my collection."
"Wait you have a gun collection?"
"Maybe." He sighs. "Yes.", laughing and then quickly regretting it, wincing.
"Okay, remind me not to get on your bad side.¨
"Haha, you're too cute." He said.
I hugged him then I walked upstairs and resumed to my bath. I lit the candles again and slowly went into the still very warm bubble water. I wonder what Ash is doing right now instead of adding the pistol to his gun collection. I didn't let that bother me too much and relaxed.
Hey all you peoples, my story is crazy! I know, but I like crazy. I promise it will calm down soon and they will go back to school soon!
-Lots of love and pandas, Kikikat14
