    "Where am I?" she asked sitting up on the bed as she rubbed her temples with her small hand, she still felt dizzy, not having full control over her body, all of a sudden, she shot her head up scooting back to the end of the bed with wide eyes.

  Flashbacks of the night before coming up piece by piece wrapping around her head , the brown haired guy noticed her actions, he toke a step towards her opening his mouth to comfort her.

"don't touch me!" she yelled frantically, her blue eyes shining under the light of the room fresh tears forming in her eyes. 

"hey, hey. calm down I-" 

"don't get near me."

  "I didn't do anything, relax!" he shouted raising his hands, she calmed down her breathing getting back to normal, but fear still visible in her eyes.

  "why am I here then?" she said staring back at his sea blue eyes, "you were laying between the bushes a few blocks away, I thought you might need help." he explained walking closer to her.

  "what's your name?" he asked after a few seconds, she tensed at his question looking down at the floor, deciding whether she should say it or not, "Louis." he reached his hand out for her.

  "Becca, Rebbeca." she said hesitation pure in her eyes, she had to act strong, as if she was normal, at least she had to pretend that she's human, otherwise, she'd be pined back down on the bed with chains strangling her with tubes and drugs being tested on her, she was way smarter than this, she wasn't like the rest, she knew better than to trust people she had just met.

  Becca snapped out of her thoughts at the sight of her small platinum blade shining under the light of the white room, she was locked in, she quickly reached for it but Louis swiftly pulled it out of her reach causing her to stare back at him with a confused expression.

  "give it." she tried once again, only for him to pull it up further, "not until you tell me what happened." he said a smirk mustered on his face, as he slide the blade back in his pocket, she sighed frustration building back inside her.

  "I won't hurt you." he assured her in order for her to feel at ease but it only made her worry even more knowing that she's not going to exit this place without her secret being exposed, but yet again, she wasn't revealing herself that easy.

  She had to lie, make up another random story about her "night out" with her friends that somehow caused her to pass out in a middle of a field.

  She looked back at the same guy that happened to be such a threat to her life right at this moment, he raised his eyebrow waiting for her to answer, she looked down at her lap, her palms sweating.

  "I-I was hanging out with my Friends and..I got drunk.." she trailed averting his gaze, "I kind of passed out." she continued.

  "I'm not buying this" he said crossing his arms, becca stayed silent afraid she'll say something wrong, "anyway..lets just..come with me." he said heading towards the wooden door at the end of the room.

   The room was silent once again nothing but the sound of their footsteps clicking against the dark wood of the floor echoing through the room, Louis held the door knob as Rebbeca stood right behind him, he pushed the door knob down to open the door.

  Just as they were exiting the room, Louis closed the door shut blocking her way, turning to face her "you're one of them aren't you?" he asked examining her features.

  Her face paled as she ducked her face down trying to hide away from him and it felt like her heart skipped a beat, Louis took a step closer to her causing her to quickly stumble backwards.

   "I don't understand what you're saying." she lied slowly stepping away from him, causing her to tremble on her own feet, Louis quickly reached out for her taking hold of her shoulders as she regained her balance.

"stay away." she pushed him away but his body didn't budge.

  "let go." she demanded pushing his chest away from her tiny body, "please." she pleaded her eyes starting to tear.

"is that why you were-" he started but cut himself his mouth forming an "o" shape.

"why did they leave you?" he continued, Becca stayed silent still caged between his muscular arms, in a split second she reached for the pocket of his jeans taking out the small blade that belonged to her, and held it out in order to protect herself from the guy that is throwing her life in danger.

  Louis quickly retrieved his hands away from her, as she threatened him "let me go." she demanded her whole body shaking with fear.

  "Becca put it down." Louis said not a single spark of fear visible on his face which only scared her more, but maybe that's what humans do, they pretend, just like she did a few minutes ago, she thought.

  "I'm not gonna hurt you, trust me." he spoke again his words seeming to persuade her to get her back to who she was minutes ago, "both you and I know that you won't do anything so put it down." he said, his tone somehow making fun of her, "You don't know me!" she shouted.

  Surprised by her own actions she covered her mouth with her hand causing Louis to smile as she put her hand down, "Go on then, do it." he said crossing her arms mockingly, she couldn't handle the fact that she held the blade in order to hurt someone, sure she was trying to protect herself but she knew she'd never dare to do it.

  Minutes passed as they exchanged glances. Louis stood his tall figure blocking the view of the door which gave her absolutely no access to it, with on last gaze, Becca finally gave in throwing the blade on the floor with a defeated sigh causing Louis's smirk to grow wider.

   "I don't get it, why would they leave you?" Louis asked ruffling with his hair, Becca stayed silent but shrugged when Louis kept staring  at her, she felt exposed under his gaze as if she was something he shouldn't see, something too precious for him to take care of.

"What are you?" Louis asked snapping Becca out her daze.

"Like, what type?" 

"Shadow."

"You're a shadow?!" he repeated as if making sure he heard it right, Becca nodded silently.

"Then how on earth could they catch you!"

"I don't know, moved too late I guess."

"can you, you know.." he asked waiting for her answer, "They drugged me," she answered still not meeting his gaze since the time the blade was thrown on the floor, "Oh." is all he could say.
