BOK 4 - THE FEAR (AVSLUTAD)

Chapter eighteen - Amber

As i drive the long way back to the Academy i realize something, Darrens eyes. I never payed attention to them before but today, they were more like his own then i've ever seen them. I give Zedd a call.

"Stranger, what's up?!" my first reaction is to make a face, stranger isn't really what we are nowdays.

"Nothing just been out for a while..."

"Where, oh, did you find him?"

"Yes i did, he's back at his cottage...believe it or not."

"He is? Wow, okay..."

"Yeah and he also told me some intressting things..."

"Like what?"

"I don't know, that you're an excelent liar?"

"Are you kidding me? Why would he say that?"

"I don't know, he mig have a reason for it, you know anything?"

"Uhm, girl no i don't know why he would say that i'm a liar all of a sudden."

"Alright, talk to you soon, i'm almost there."

"See yah..."I hang up the phone, as i drive up to the Academy's parkinglot and as park my car i can spot a figure in the very back of it. I take a closer look and realize that it's him. He's right there. His red eyes are like two dots in the darkness.

"Darr...?" He comes out to me, his face is a bit ashy in the darkness. Not like before.

"Hi..."

"What are you doing, i thought you'd be at your cottage?"

He takes a few steps closer to me, i am so unsure about him that i automatically take a few steps back. He knows i'm scared and very on edge, buut he keeps getting closer to me, and when he's right beside me i get chills all over my body. He is so stiff and creepy.

"Are you afraid of me?"

"No...."

"Then why are your heart beating a million times faster...?"

"Because i love you..." he looks up from the side of my neck, right into my eyes and shows me a reason i should not love him, but i don't care. I still do.

"Do you really love me...?"

"I do Darr, i have always loved you...no matter what i'll continue to love you..forever..."

"Forever..."

"Yes...forever." i didn't notice his hands because my eyes were distracted by his face and movements, but when i look down i can see them, their dark red for some reason.

"Why are your hands all read...?" He makes a tiny movement and looks down himself. He seems surpriced as well.

"I don't know..."

"Did you...kill someone....?"

"I have no clue..."

"Darren you have to remember something like that, stop playing now."

"i'm not playing Amber, i don't know what i did..."

"Are you serious..?"

"Completely..."

"Oh my god...wait, let me smell..."i take one of his hands and take a deep sniff on it, yep, that's someones blood right there. How could he not remember?
