Force bond.

Force bond. pt. 4

He says I should be scared of him and don't get me wrong, I am. But somehow I know that he has no intention of hurting me, though I feel he's capable of it. I was more curious about him, I kept referring to him as 'the masked man.'

But was he a man? He certainly felt more than that, he held this powerful force within him, that made him so intimidating.

I was sitting outside my house in the back yard, enjoying the nice evening, watching the sun; slowly decend into night.
I was becoming so curious about him and our ability to connect to one another.

Why us? How can this be happening? What was, as he kept referring to as 'the Force?'
"...Still so curious." His vibrant voice appearing. My heart sank, and I felt him standing next to me. "Even after I warned you." He asked.
I bit my lip and kept my eyes ahead. "How can I not be? Aren't you?" I asked, finally looking up at him.
"Yes." He replied. His answers are always very brief. I rolled my eyes.
"Then, why?" I asked the same question again.
"I don't know.. this is, new. Different." He said, his mechanical voice, sending shivers down my spine.
"Is the mask..necessary? I mean, do you have to wear it? Like to breath or something? Or are you able to take it off?" I was genuinely curious about it and I was becoming more comfortable with asking him questions.
"What do you think you'll see if I do?" He asked.
I sighed, "I don't know? A person? Not some creature in a black mask." I said.
He took a couple steps forward, his back facing me. I only just notice how tall he was, he then turned around, his hands reached up to his mask, and the mask made a hiss and he leaned a little forward so he can pull it off his head and stood back up.

My heart rate picked up as I saw his true face, younger than I expected, and attractive, I let a breath go, that I didn't know I was holding in.
I was now staring into his real eyes, and they're even more captivating then his mask, and I could not tear my eyes away for the life of me.
"Wow." I breathed out, and he gritted his teeth.
"You're surprised." He stated, not taking his eyes off me for a second.
"I didn't actually think there was a man underneath it all, so, yes it's surprising." I answered honestly.
"And you think that's what I am? A man?" I frowned at that. What does that mean?
"Well what else would you be?"

He took those slow menacing steps toward me and I looked up and gulped, still not used to having him so close to me. He leaned forward so he was at eye level with me, his face was void of any expression, his head tilted and said one simple word.
"....A monster."
