"Come out little rabbit." The voice was deep and menacing, and I would've soiled myself right there if I were any younger. I couldn't see very well, but I could see what little moonlight that filtered through the trees reflected off a pale face. His gaze was like a hungry, crazed wolf hunting its prey.

There's a flash of confusion in his eyes, but he obliges, drawing his hand back slowly and letting it fall to his side, still watching her intently. She takes a step back from him, unable to meet his gaze. "We- I shouldn't- I shouldn't be alone with you. In here. If anyone- if anyone knew they- they'd start saying things and-" She brushes past him before he's able to form a response. "I- I have to go."
