The Cure || HS

.3.

There they were, never stopping looking at me and I couldn't move myself, totally paralyzed.

"Ray?! Did you hear me? The food is here, let's eat." I jumped a little in my place with Sao's voice, making me look at her.

"Ahm.. yeah, ok." I looked back at the sidewalk and I just saw people walking there.

They're gone or am I just seeing things?

I hope that I'm just seeing things.

~*~

"We're here, finally!" I say super excited to be in Bran Castle, the "Dracula" castle.

"Yeah and we can go inside!" Sao takes my hand as our guide says, letting all of us walk free through the castle, we just needed to be in the castle entrance in two hours.

We enter the first room and I could see in the wall many pictures of Vlad's family and their informations, the ceiling is not very high and some men had to bend down to enter other rooms and many antique furniture. I was hoping to see a scary place but all is so beautiful in a different way. Even more outside, where we were now.

"I loved it." I say giving Sao her bottle of water, she nodded and sip the drink.

"Me too, so cool. But I need to pee, I'm going to the bathroom, wait here ok? I'll be right back." I nodded and saw her making her way to the bathroom, seeing a bench against the

wall, without thinking twice I sit there, looking people around.

"What are you?" I heard that voice, the voice that I was hoping to not hear ever again.

I turned my head and there he was, sitting beside me in the bench, staring at the people walking around the castle courtyard.

"What do you mean? And what are you doing here?" I was scared I have to admit it, but I don't want to show it to him.

"That night, I tried to hypnotize you, but it didn't work." He said calmly then turning to look at me. "Why?"

And here I am, staring at this face again.

"How can I know?" I raised a brow. "Maybe you don't know how to hypnotize properly." I say with a low laugh.

"Dear, you can be sure that I know how to hypnotize people very well, I've doing this a very long time ago." Now he was the one smirking.

"So I must be immune to this.." I murmured and looked down.

"The only ones who can not be hypnotized by vampires are witches and other vampires." I furrowed my brows, looking at him again. "So, are you a witch?"

"What? I'm not a witch nor a vampire." He took a deep breath with his brows furrowed. " Although I wish I was." I murmured.

He laughed a little louder making some people look at us.

"Believe me, beauty. You wouldn't want to be.. this." I tried to find a hint of sarcasm in his beautiful eyes but.. nothing.

"Believe me, I would. It would help me a lot." I said serious, resting my hands in my thighs.

"How it would help you?" His eyes were full of curiosity.

"I could hypnotize my father and put him away from me, my mother and brother. And finally we could breathe again.. live without being scared all the time." I said in a low voice, looking down.

He was quiet, didn't say a thing, so I looked back at him and he was already looking at me.

"I.." He was going to say something but then, he cleaned his throat, getting his straight face again and ran his hand through his hair, pushing it back. "So.. you're not a witch or vampire?"

"No.." I sighed, feeling upset and wanting to know what he was going to say.

"But.. you.." He sighed, trying to find words. "You're really a mystery to me." He looks into my eyes. "And this makes me very curious about you."

I was paralyzed, what he means?

"I-"

"Ray..wow!" I looked at Sao and she was beside that girl that I saw in the club, this guy's friend. My eyes widened and looked back at him.

"Y-your friend.. Sao.."

"Don't worry, she's fine." He didn't let me finished, already knowing what I was thinking.

"Ray, who's this?" Sao asks looking up and down at him.

"Ahm..." I didn't know what to say, afterwards, I didn't know him.

"I see you found my friend, Saoirse." He says with a kind smile and I furrowed my eyes.

"Yeah I was lost when I found Saoirse in the bathroom." The girl said raising her hand to me. "Hi, I'm Mia." She says with a creepy smirk on her face. "I think you already met me somewhere."

I froze for a few seconds but then, taking her hand but feeling she squeezing mine before letting go of her hand.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Ravenna." I tried to smile normally.

"You too." Mia looks back to the guy. "I going to the others, are you coming?"

"Ahm.. yeah, go. I'm going after you."

"Bye Saoirse, thanks for helping me." She smiled kindly at Sao, but I could feel that she was pretending that. "See you again, Ravenna." She murmured with that creepy smirk again before walk through the crowd.

"I need to go." The guy said, turning his back to Sao and looking into my eyes. "We didn't finish our conversation."

"I think we finished.. I'm going back home tomorrow night, so.. goodbye." I say feeling relieved somehow.

"Believe me.. I can find you." He smirks. "By the way... I'm Harry. Bye, Saoirse." He said, saying bye to Sao and then disappearing like his friend.

What he meant saying that he can find me? God..

"Girl.. what a beautiful man was this." Sao says getting my attention.

"Yeah... he really is." I smiled a little.

Five minutes later our guide called us to get back to hotel, all the way back I could stop thinking about today.

Why I couldn't be hypnotized? Why Mia seemed to try to scare me? And why Harry wants to keep that conversation?

I hope to not see them again...
