Our Spark

The Boy

EVELYN'S POV

When the guy came through the door and saw me, his face went white and his eyes were wide. He was staring at me in horror. I didn't know why, but it was making me uncomfortable.
"What are you doing in here?!" He managed to say, "How long have you been here?"
"Probably since afternoon yesterday... I fell asleep, and got locked in here"
After I had answered him, his face got whiter, if that was even possible.
Then out of nowhere, he screamed,
"Are you an idiot! You could have been hurt! or killed!"
Killed? Now that was a bit far fetched. I knew that the guy in this room with me want normal, but, killed? I don't think so!
"Why do you lock this guy up in here anyway?" I asked, "He only changes into a dog!"
I looked at him, and he laughed. What was so funny? Was this some kind of joke?
"What!" I said.
The guy spoke for the second time,
"It's just, I don't change into a dog, I'm actually a Frelo, by night"
A Frelo? I'd heard of them before, but I hadn't thought much about them before!
"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked.
"It means that I have electronic powers, but I also have werewolf mixed within my DNA!"
He clawed his hands in the air in some cute gesture that I found irresistible. Then, another question,
"Can you hurt people?"
The smile instantly faded away from his perfectly structured face, and I realized I'd said something really wrong.
"I-I'm sorry.. I" I paused.
I was speechless, but then the guy at the door brought us back to life.
"Well, I'm gonna leave"
I honestly didn't care whether he stayed or went, but he did, and then there was silence.
"..I have.... hurt.. people.. before" he had told me, "But not intentionally... I'd never hurt anyone on purpose.. I mean-"
"Its okay," I cut him off.
He looked up at me with a confused look,
"Wha-"
"Its okay!"
I smiled down at him warmly, and he smiled back.
"Thank you" he said.
I winked at him, and then we made our way out of the building.
