beast and his master

Chapter Eight: Sol

I searched high and low but I was lost. "Where am I?" I mumbled looking down a dark hallway. "Damn you Leo for leaving me alone." He thought he would have scared me off with that little act of his but it only made me want to stay more. He needed me just as much as I needed him. I needed to find my way to him and fast.

"Hello!" I yelled silence was my reply. I felt really nervous and scared. "Leo." I continued to walk down the dark hallway I slid my hand along the cold walls to help guide myself in the dark. My hand found a nod and it turned signaling to me that it was open, I pushed it open. White light flooded the hall nearly blinding me as I stepped out.

I was outside standing under a cloudy gray sky. Water droplets fell apon my face. I looked up with my arms out wide. I embraced the rain for it as my friend. I let out a sigh of relief and a squeal of happiness.

I sat down on the wet earth. I dug my hands in to the mud. This weather always brightened my day. The rain seemed to wash away all worry and doubt. My body relaxed and my eye lids grew heavy. Sleep consumed me.

"Sol...Sol wake up." I heard a deep voice in my ear. I yawned and stretched my eyes fluttered open and peered in to a blood red pair of eyes. "Morning Leo." I said smiling his face was white and his hair a grayish color it stuck to his face.

Then I realized he was wet. Covered in rain water just as I was I. "Don't you know it's bad to sleep in the rain you could get sick, or worse!" He snapped I jumped up from the ground. Mud covered moved of my body. He glared at me and I glared right back." That's never stopped me before." I said looking up at him I tired to keep eyes contact but my eyes wondered down to his chest. His shirt was sticking to him and with that came all his glory. His chiseled chest and strong arms. He was not as big as the men I seen but he was still breath taking even with those blood red eyes.

"You need a shower." He said looking me up and down I wondered for a second if he too had admired my small figure as I admired his. I laughed inwardly who was I kidding he would never take in test in something so small. I puffed out my cheeks "lead the way to a shower then will you." I said. "Gladly." Was his only reply.

I wanted to talk to him to fill the silence as we walked but with him I never knew what say. Anything could upset him or make him leave so I kept quiet which was really hard.
