The Orchid (Colby Brock)

Fat tears (Chapter 63.)

"What the hell was that?!" I whispered harshly. He just stared at me, I think he was half relieved but still shaken up. His eyes were electric, he probably had adrenaline rushing through him. Unlike me I just wanted to go back to sleep. He panted hard as leant against my front door. I dropped my arms from their folded position before rolling my eyes, then storming up the stairs and back to bed. Being careful not to stomp too much because Quinn was probably asleep.

Colby's POV
I didn't know what to do so I just followed her up the stairs. I thought it was kinda weird that she was still holding a giant kitchen knife, although it made me smile. She was cute like that well kinda, I don't know what I was thinking but I followed her up the stairs. The only reason I came here was because it was the closest place to the club I was at. I knew it was Brennen who had set this up it had to be. She shot me a death glare,
"You stink of whiskey by the way." Little bitch, I thought but settled for a small chuckle instead. She continued up the stairs I could tell she was angry but she wasn't stomping on the ground like she usually would, probably cause her little boyfriend was downstairs. I tried not to get heated thinking about it, I finally admitted to myself that I still had feelings for Brie and that all the other girls and hook ups were just distractions. We finally stopped outside of Brie's room, she was in it and I was outside of it the door frame was the only thing that seperated us. Her neat eyebrows were curved into a frown and I could hear her light little breaths. She reminded me of a glass doll. Little and fragile. She looked deep into my eyes. She had beautiful bright green eyes with dark green lines weaving their way to the pupil.
"Well I'm going to bed I have an important meeting in 7 hours. If you're truly in trouble you can crash on the couch. Goodnight." And with that she closed the door straight in my face. 'Huh' I muttered under my breath, before folding my arms. I pressed my forehead against the cool wooden door.
"But don't you wanna know what happened? Why I'm here?" I asked.
Brie's POV
"But don't you wanna know what happened? Why I'm here?" He asked he was so mysterious like that, I hopped off the bed and creeped to my white wooden door and pressed my air against it. I could tell he was there too, and it made my stomach flutter. I sighed.
"I'm listening." I said faintly but loud enough for Colby to hear.
"It was Brennen." I gasped, I thought it was all over. Was he gonna hurt me?! Or Colby?! "I don't think he's going to hurt you Brie."
The way he said my name always made me smile, I bit my bottom lip. Before Colby continued.
"Or else I think those guys would've followed me in." He said, I don't know why but I opened the door and looked at him. He just stood there with his hands in his pockets and his thumbs sticking out. He made direct eye contact with me, he always did that.
"Are they gonna hurt you?" I asked biting the corner of my lip. He just shrugged, I could feel the tears starting to well up in my eyes. "Are they gonna k-kill you?"
Once again he shrugged. I threw myself onto him wrapping my arms around him, I knew I surprised him by this because he took a step back to balance himself. But then he accepted my hug and wrapped his buff arms around my waist. His warmth consumed me and I allowed a few tears to slip from my eyes.
"Why can't he just leave us alone?" I said into his warm shoulder, I nuzzled my face into his shoulder with my arms thrown around his neck. He just squeezed me tighter which I didn't mind considering I was squeezing him pretty tight. Well at least I thought I was.
"You'll be okay." He whispered in my ear comfortingly, I let another fat tear slip down my cheek.
"W-what about you?" I whispered like a crying puppy, heck I practically was a crying puppy.
"Listen, I don't know what will happen to me. But you'll get through this okay?" He said a little louder this time.
"Colby I want you to get through this, I honestly don't care about me. Just promise me you'll be okay." I had realised him from the hug but he was still had his arms wrapped around me. Our eyes locked.
"Don't you understand that the only person I care about is you? I will put myself on the line if it will protect you." He looked serious, dead serious. I shook my head before resting it against his firm, solid chest.
"I don't get you, I don't think I ever will." I said quietly.
