Wednesday evening, The street was peaceful, along with the breeze that made the circumstance even better. I was waiting outside the office for my cab, clutching my bag, I looked around, watching the cars as they passed by. Suddenly my eyes traveled towards a strange figure standing across the street. It was wearing a black hoodie and black jeans, I couldn't see its face. Something about that figure gave me chills.

'Why do I sense something scary?'

Suddenly my arm started to hurt, I groaned and turned my gaze towards it, my eyes went wide when I saw my sleeves were torn as if it was scratched by some animal, there was blood draining from my arm. I placed a hand over my arm and backed away hitting my back on the gate.

'What the hell! Something is wrong.'

I turned over to see the dark figure but it had disappeared. That's when my eyes caught a paper. A message was composed in blood.

You don't have much time left.

Panic started to fill my lungs. My heart missed a bit or two. I didn't know what's the right thing to do. I should tell it to someone.

Someone I can trust.

°°°

I turned on the TV and without wasting any more time, I brought the bandages from my drawer, I pulled out the shirt, unbuttoned it, and threw it towards the laundry bag.

While bandaging I noticed another cut, which was quite close to the scar, It was an alphabet. C

Bloody hell.

The doorbell rang, 'Who could it be?' I took my t-shirt and wore it immediately, At first I asked,

"Who is it?"

"Someone. You know.", A familiar voice came from the other side of the door.

Alexander.

I opened the door with a broad smile on my face.

"Hey!"

"Hi"

I moved away from the door, he closed the door behind him and turned his gaze towards my attire, a pencil skirt, and a double-sized t-shirt.

"I came back from the office.", I said instantly, he nodded and turned towards my first-aid kit and the bandages that lied on the couch.

"What happened here? What am I missing? Are you alright?"

Oh boy!

"I cut my hand while cutting vegetables. Forget about that, why don't you tell how your day was?"
I asked picking up the bandages from the couch, and drag his attention from all of this, I didn't want him to get injured because of me. The bandages weren't noticeable because it was covered by the sleeves of the t-shirt.

"It was fine but I came here because.."

"Because--"

"Mai came back so I wanted to give her and Carlton some space so I got out of the house and came here to fill up your space."

I bit my tongue to stop myself from chuckling, He came forward and helped me clean the couch and feed Gru.

I quickly went to the washroom and changed into my trouser, while he was playing with Gru.

"You can stay for dinner if you want to."

"Well. I love food and I love you and that's an extraordinary combination so yeah!"

Both of us raced towards the kitchen, while he was cutting vegetables, I took out the oil from the drawer and kept it beside the oven. Since the noodles were still in the grocery bag kept in my bedroom. I went out, he unexpectedly clasped my arm, at the exact place, where the wound was.

It was quite sudden, I couldn't help but groan. I turn to face him, his raised his eyebrow with suspicion.
He immediately removed his hand, "What matter? Are you hurt?"

"No, it's nothing like that." I said but it was too late, he lifted my sleeveless promptly, and gave me a death glare.

Oh boy. Please don't be a boy with a temper problem.

"Who did this to you?"

"What!? Well... I mean.. "

Holy crap.

"It's just a scratch which I got from the.” I hesitated. “Office Gates."

Seriously, gates.

He lifted his eyebrows and examined the wound, I bit my lips and took a deep breath. I jerked when he placed his hand on my cheek.

"You seem scared, are you hiding something? Look you can trust me.", I smiled as he rested his gaze towards me.

"No, everything is fine.", He replaced his hands, and wrapped them around my waist, placing his lips on my forehead.

"If anything is wrong, you are going to inform me."

"Yeah! Alexander. Now please the oven is on, I don't want my food to get destroyed."

He unwrapped his hands and moved away, with a smile on his face.  While he was chopping the vegetables. He muttered something under his breath.

"Hey! What are you whispering?", I asked, he turned towards me and scoffed,

"Nothing."

I wrinkled my face and went away holding up a tray, turning my back towards him.

°°°

It was midnight, After having dinner, I started to pick up the plates. Unexpectedly I felt a warm breath over my neck. I didn't shift from my position and turn to look at Alexander from the corner of my eyes.

I felt his hand over my waist, which gradually traveled towards my belly and then underneath my shirt. I gasped as my heart started to beat vigorously. He rested his lips softly over my neck, I shut my eyes down and dropped the plate back on the table as he twisted me around.
