The Girl Who Ran

Chapter 7

Elena

    Lydia and Ric are staring at me as if I'm a ghost. I don't know why though. Why are they staring at me like that?

    "Hello? What happened? For the second time." I ask loudly to knock them out of whatever world they are in.

    Finally Ric snaps out of it long enough to say, "You attacked me, so I pushed you off me and you flew through the wall. Uhm, we thought you were dead."

    I feel myself start to blush as the previous events come flooding back.  I say, "Oh, yeah. I remember. Sorry about that."

    He looks up at me seeming relieved, looks down, and then looks back up with a smile.

    "I guess we'll need to call someone to fix that wall." He says lightly.

    I laugh while I get up to walk over to the couch and sit down next to Ric. He's kind of cute.    

    He looks over at me and says, "I'm sorry. For, uhm, pushing you through a wall."

    I smile and lean in close to him, kiss him on the cheek and say, "It's okay. I forgive you. I'm sorry for attacking you."

    He stares into my eyes as if he's searching for answers. He quickly clears his throat, looks ways and stands up.

   "It's cool." He says.

    I frown as I watch him walk down the hallway to his room.

Alaeric

    I shut my door behind me and slowly walk over to my bed. I lie down on my pillow with my hands beneath my head and stare at my ceiling.

    Why did she kiss me? I fell weird just thinking about it. Not that I didn't like the cute little kiss on the cheek but I don't know. I just have this weird feeling about her. I have never felt this way before. 

    Maybe it's because she is changing into something I have never seen before.

    Or maybe it's because I like her. Do I like her? I do know that I am overjoyed that she's alive and I didn't kill her. Maybe that's it. I just felt weird because I thought I had killed the girl.

    I hear a knock on the door and it opens. I close my eyes and pretend to have fallen asleep in case it is Elena, which it was. I don't know how I know but I can just feel her presence. her essence. Her very being. I can feel her close to me. It was powerful. Overwhelming.

    But is she powerful or is the connection between us powerful? If there even is a connection.

    She lays down next to me on the bed and pulls the covers over her. Warmth floods my body and I feel my c**k twitch. Oh god. She is not making this easy on me. I guess I do like her. Well I am at least attracted to her. I didn't just hear and feel her crawl into bed with me, I can see her in my mind. It's completely crazy. I must be going crazy.

    She looks over at me and stares at my "sleeping" face, so I open my eyes and she smiles.    

    "May I help you?" I ask a little harshly.

    She frowns and looks away shaking her head.

    "Then why are you in here?" I ask as nicely as I possibly can.

    She looks at me with pain in her eyes as she slowly puts her hands to the side of her head and screams, "It hurts! Make it stop!"

    I sit up fast and jump off the bed to go find Lydia. She'll know what to do. But Elena cries out, "No, don't go! Don't leave me like he did!"

    I whip around real fast to see Elena looking confused and in pain. Who is she talking about, I wonder.

    "Who, Elena? Who left you?" I ask quietly.
