The Lost Mate

Not so bad after all

For the rest of the weekend I took care of Rose. I didn’t come out of my room unless it was to get her something. I couldn’t believe this happened to her, she is so kind and understanding. I have no clue on who would want to do this to someone like her.

“I’m going to the store to get some more food. Is there anything you want me to get you while I am out Rose?”

“No, thanks for doing so much for me Emmy.”

“You know I would do anything for you.”

She smiles at me from the bed and I walk out the door. I grab my keys and hug Jenna before I walk out the door. I have to turn the heat on a little bit because it is starting to get a little chilly out being it is 6 in the evening in October.

Getting to the grocery store didn’t take me long since it was only 10 minutes away from the house. I look out the window before turning the car off and I see Christian standing outside the store with a few of his new friends. I rolled my eyes and got out.

After getting everything we needed at the house and I check out, I am putting the bags in the trunk of my car when all of a sudden another pair of hands are beside me putting bags in. I jump up and see it is Christian, he looks at me smiling and then leans against my car.

“ What are you doing,” I ask.

“ I seen you had a lot of groceries and I decided to come over and help you,” he replies while shrugging his shoulders.

“ Well, thank you I guess.”

He walks closer to me and I smell his cologne and I was lost. I was brought back to the world when I feel his hand rubbing my face. I felt sparks shoot all throughout my body. The sparks scared me but it also comforted me at the same time. I felt like I was complete when he touched me. That is what scared me the most. How could someone I barely know make me feel this way.

I see him glancing down at my lips like he wanted to kiss me. I don’t know why but I kind of wanted him to kiss me to see if these sparks was in my head or not. To say his lips was soft was an understatement. They were, i imagine, as soft as clouds. They were warm, smooth, and i could smell a little bit of mint o his breath.

The sparks I had hoped would only be in my head was only intensified. It felt like I couldn't breath, like all the air was sucked right out of my lungs and I was left with nothing. I felt something stirring in my mind. I could feel the pressure building up, like a wall was closing in on my mind. All of a sudden I can feel a pop in my mind like something was broke.

'It's about time I was free from my prison you put me in,' a voice inside my mind said.

I accidentally bit down on Christians lip, drawing a bit of blood. He pulls back and smiles at me like he is finally realizing something for the first time.

"Emerald what's wrong," he asks like he is concerned for me.

"I feel a strange pop in my head and then I heard a voice inside my head. Oh my god Christian I am going crazy aren't I."

He starts laughing and pulling me close while telling me that i am not going crazy. I look at him like he is the crazy one. Him holding me helped to calm me down a little with everything going on.

"Em, do you have time to come to my house tomorrow?"

"Yea I have time after school tomorrow."

"Okay you can follow me after. I have something I need to show you."
