Chapter 27 - He kissed you moron

In reality, I was held by my arm. I turned to look at Jace as he eyed me worriedly. "What's wrong?" He asked me.

I sniffed, "nothing, I'll be back" I nodded my head to reassure mostly myself. "Just give me a minute". He nodded releasing my hands. I walked out of the restaurant. Then I ran, I ran like I was being chased by goons whose main aim was to kill me.

But how far can you run with heels. I collapsed on a bench by the side walk. Breathing hard, I placed my head in my hands. My eyes clouded with tears as I sniffed.

I breath in and out, calming myself. Just before realisation of where I was started to sink in. A voice called out my name. I looked up, a little fricked out.

"Krystal is that you?" I scanned the area, catching form of a silhouette. I squinted a little.

"Liam is that you?" I tensed on my sit.

"Yeah, yeah" his form came into focus and I relaxed. "What are you doing here?"

"Uhh...where exactly is here?" I looked around, not recognising my location. He chuckled.

"You mean you don't know where you are?" I shook my head.

"Nope, I just ran off to no where in particular" I blurted out before clasping my mouth with my hands.

"What?" I hummed, looking up at him.

"What?" He looked at me incredulously.

"You ran off" he looked at me before plopping down beside me. "You said you ran off" he stated, "from where?"

Stupid

Stupid

Blurting out things

"Nowhere, don't worry about it" I told him waving my hands in the air.

He looked at me warily before asking, "do you even have a clue where you are?"

I shook my head 'no', running my right hand up and down my left arms. He shook his head, running his tongue over his bottom lip. He stood up suddenly, "alright let's go" he told me.

I looked up at him, "where?"

"Let's take you home" he ticked his hands into his pockets.

"Uh no" I muttered, "don't worry, I'll find my way back to where I came from"

Deep, deep, deep in my mind, I know I have no idea where I am and how to get anywhere but stubbornness runs in my blood.

He rolled his eyes, "let's go princess" I rolled my eyes as well, getting up.

Not because he said so, but because I felt like.

...

And not because I'm scared.

"What's up with the nickname?" I asked him, strolling alongside him.

He shrugged, "I don't know, I guess it just came to mind"

I scrunched my nose, "really, princess"

He glanced at me, "don't you like it?"

"Ehhh" I squeaked.

"So what where you doing there?" He asked, "for real"

I sighed, "for real. I got lost"

He chuckled, "I thought you were supposed to be on a date with blonde hair kid"

I laughed at his reference hitting his sides with my elbows. He derailed from the path, entering into the road when a car with flood lights horned with full speed coming in his direction. He yelped jumping back into the path.

He held his chest, "you want to kill me?" He screeched. I bursted out laughing.

"Yo..your f..ace" I hunched forward, holding my stomach. Soon after he joined me laughing.  Finally, I dissolved into giggles. "I'm sorry" I told him.

"It's okay since I'm still alive and well" he glanced at me.

I gasped, "so if you weren't you wouldn't forgive me"

He gave me a pointed a look, "uhhh duh". I shook my head.

"So you can't die for me?" I asked him.

He gave a half laugh, "oh so we've come to that. If it makes you feel any better, I guess blondie over there would care that you're dead" I gasped, slapping his chest.

I laughed, "what is your problem?" I pouted, "so you can't die for me?"

He stopped, looking at me, "I don't give life, so I can't take it" he bit his lip, "though...I could make an exception"

At that my eyes perked up, "really" he chuckled.

"See the way your eyes lit up. So cute"

I snorted, "did you just call me cute"

He continued walking, "apparently I did. I take that back"

"Hey" I slapped his chest and he held my hand there. I turned to look at him staring at my fingers. I tugged at them as his eyes snapped to mine.

He turned my hands, his face drawing close to my palms. He maintained eye contact with me. I could feel the intensity of his green orbs, staring me down causing me to melt into a puddle. His warm breath, on my palms causing tingles running up and down my spines. As his lips press on the insides on my palms, my senses go haywire. I could feel a sweat forming on my forehead as the breeze blows. His hazel eyes intensifies and I rip my hands from his. Cradling my palm in my other hand, on my chest.

I didn't realise we had stopped walking. I continued on my journey, breathing in and out. I sensed him walking just behind me as I felt his stares on my back.

What was that?

What happened.

He kissed you moron, I rolled my eyes at my subconscious,

He kissed my palms moron, I retorted

I could still feel the tingles dancing in my chest. I rubbed my chest as if to ease it. So after he caught up, walking in sync with me. The journey to the restaurant which turned out to be short was quiet.

We slowed down as we reached the door. The awkwardness of this situation was eating me up inside. "So..."

"See ya" I gave a small wave avoiding his eyes. He nodded his head, waiting on his spot. He nodded his head towards the door. I nodded my head as well, walking through the door to my date.
