.Rise And Fall.

.Rise and Fall. (8)

|Chapter: 8|

"You little piece of shit...", thats's all I heard before the sound of punching and kicking someone continued. I quickly made my way to the kitchen window. The dizzy feeling suddenly threw me off the edge, and I almost fell, but I restrained myself holding the kitchen counter. 

"You don't turn against us. That's our deal", the voice said again as the beating sound became more vigorous with each second, that passed.

After I pulled up the blinds, I saw Nickel. This was exactly what I was scared of when I heard the sound. My heartbeat increased at the sight of the scene in front of my eyes and I started breathing, raggedly.

Three muscular big guys in all black dress against one. One was holding Nickel with his hands behind his body, the other was punching him in the stomach and the third one stood grinning on the side with a knife in his hand. I gulped looking at them as my hands started to sweat. I took a look at the clock. It was 2 in the morning.

I was debating whether I should call Sarah and Salvor to help or I should go to help him. The second option was totally out of my league. But then again waking up the twins was like getting them into trouble too.

I could even ask help from the other neighbours, I thought. That's it and I quickly ran for the front door. The moment I stepped out of my porch, I was frozen to the spot. The guy was still punching him as blood wobble out of Nickel's mouth.

But still he managed to throw his deathly glares without uttering a word to the guy who was punching him with not a slightest hint of mercy. My heart twisted with an unknown feeling of severe pain and I took several steps crossing my lawn.

"Don't show me your eyes, Black", the guy screamed and punch him harder. "Finish him", he said again and back away indicating the guy with the knife. Wearing his permanent grin he took the place in front of Nickel as he position the knife to stab him in the stomach. No no no no.

"Noooooo.....", I screamed. My voice sounded foreign to myself. All of their heads turn towards me including Nickel as his eyes widen after it met mine. The punching guy started walking towards me as a devilish grin played on his merciless face. I stood on the spot blinking my eyes several times. My heart was pounding under my ribs so hard that it even hurt to take a breath.

"Motherfucker! Get away from her. Don't even dare to touch her", Nickel's voice boomed in completely taking me by surprise. And I actually saw some different emotion swirl up in his eyes. Fear. The guy's expression changed in a dirty smirk as he continued to walk towards me, clearly with some bad intention in his mind.

"So this is your new fling Black? She don't look like your usual whores. Interesting."

"Fuck! Den you better step the fuck back. You'll regret this. Mother fucker, I said step back", Nickel growled as he struggle to get out of the one who was holding him back. All three laughed at his unsuccessful attempts, when I kept stepping back with fear.

And in the next moment, the guy pulled me to his chest as he caged my body by his arms around my waist. I try to push him away but failed miserably. I look around for help, just then the lights in the house opposite to ours flickered on and I saw Mrs. Gibbon peeping through her bedroom window.

"HELP! PLEASE HELP!", I cried and shouted hysterically at the same time, asking for help from her. "MRS. GIBBON, PLEASE HELP!" She only pulled down her blinds, before the lights inside her house were put out completely. My first tear trickled down as I look at the closed window, the only hope was also shut down.

I was hoping for someone to come out, but no one did. Who was I kidding when I thought I'll ask help from the neighbours after knowing no one will help because Nickel Black was involved in the matter. They hated him.

"Shut the fuck up, bitch", the guy pushing me hissed.

I was being pushed to God knows where as Nickel struggled to fight with the two big guys."Let go off me please", I begged feeling disgusted by his touch.

Ignoring my pleas he dragged me with him and started to shove me in a black car on the side of the road. I held the open door to stop him but he was too strong and in one push I landed on the seat of the car.

"I'll take her and you finish him", he ordered the other guys.

"Fuck no! Let me go!", I heard Nickel shout again. "If you dare to hurt her. I will not only rip you apart but your whole fucking family, I swear."

That threat only made them laugh more. I tried to sit up, but I was again pushed back when he climbed on top of me. I was begging him to stop. He only pushed himself more on me, placing kisses down my neck. I shuddered with fear when his hand went inside my pants.

"Stop, I said stop please", I cried out.

"Mmm sweetheart you smell good", he moaned sucking my skin. "Stop struggling if you want me to be gentle", he warned.

I started loosing all of my hopes that someone would come to rescue us and that's when I heard honking of some cars and bikes. The guy above me stiffened. Before he could take any action, he was yanked off my body by a very pissed looking Nickel. 

"Fucker, you sleazy cunt I warned you", he said and punched him pushing against the car. I squirmed inside the car, all I wanted to do was hide. I have never seen him this mad. He threw him on the lawn before he sat on him throwing punches like he wanted to kill him on the spot.

I gained some of my courage and strength as I stepped out of the car slowly. I saw Zac and some other boys from the team beating up the other two guys.

"I fucking warned you, don't fucking touch her. How dare you touch her? You shouldn't have done that, you fucking shouldn't have?", he shouted again and again cussing for touching me. He looked like a mad man as he beat the guy almost to dead. My tears won't stop falling as the scene was more horrific than any nightmare.

"You. Fucking. Touch. Her", he shouted again and bashed his face with each word.

I want to run away, yet I couldn't move as I witness anger took all over him and cool chills pain down my spine. The guy's face was smashed and painted with blood. I doubt if he was even breathing anymore.

Zac pulled Nickel away grabbing his arm. "Throw this cunt away", he told Zac kicking the body which looked lifeless now.

He stood rubbing his blooded knuckles behind his jeans and then swapped his head to look at me. Without wasting a second he took steps towards me never breaking the eye contact. The anger and some indescribable emotions his eyes, I couldn't point to and my heart started to pound again under his gaze.

The strong smell of alcohol invaded my nostrils as he stood only inches away from my face. No wonder, he couldn't fight against those guys. He was clearly drunk. Then he took hold of my arms with his hands, "What the fuck did you think you were...", he scolded me and I flinched with fear.  Immediately he pulled his hands away and brought one on my forehead to check my temperature.

"FUCK! You are burning", he said and scooped me in his arms. He carried me in his arms which was completely out of the blues. I was astonished at his sudden action.

Nothing came out of my mouth as I watch him taking me back to my house, still carrying me in his arms and it was one of the warmest feeling I have ever encountered. His lemon scent mixed with the alcohol and smoke had me drunk in him, I slowly leaned on his shoulder taking all of him as I can. I didn't want to be separated from this feeling, the coldness seem to fade away. 

How could a cold person feel this warm?
