Show Me How To Live Again

Chapter Eleven

Roland's Pov

You shouldn't lie to him.
I can't tell him.
But your cousin could get away therefore he should know just in case!
WE WILL KEEP HIM SAFE NO MATTER WHAT!

I let out a growl at my beast and continue to chase him.

You really should come with me it would be safer for him.
I would I-no I could just walk away, go deeper into Forest and never come back? I could do it now and he wouldn't ever find me...

I stop. "Choices, choices, what to do?" I think for another moment then chase him again.
"Maybe another time to think about it."

Hidoshi's Pov

After he catches me once again we stop and just sit down, take a breath as we're both now out of breath. Somehow the topic of my love life before I was here came in view and I gushed over what I thought Umemi was like, and that day I asked for her hand I felt like I had my life set and so on and then it went to when she started abusing me and shit. I stopped after the first day since I didn't want to go into detail or anything like that and he understood.

I feel calm and happy around you. Around Umemi I felt stressed and scared and when I didn't realize she'd be abusive I felt way to nervous and never calm like I could be myself. And it really doesn't help I do feel nervous, I mean in the good way. It's like I'm a girl around you. It's just BS I think sometimes...

We talk, and talk, and talk, and we've ended up being out here for hours. I was starting to get tired, but I didn't show it and my vision got hazy and I realized that when Roland started to get a dreamy like look. And I knew I was dreaming and probably around asleep when he looked away and mumbled out, "Since we're on this topic... I was wondering if you'd go out with me?" I gave into the dream and nodded before I closed my eyes and woke up in my bedroom.
