War of words.

The chase

I run as fast as my bare feet can take me. I will not lose him this time. I pick up my speed to catch it. As I am about to grab the figures back, It makes a sudden turn down a hill of thorn bushes. I don't care, I will make it through this and figure out who this is. I chase it with such speed i hear the wind whip by my ears. I reach my hand to grab it. And finally I pull it back and it crashes to the ground hard. I quickly put my body of it and keep it down. "Who the f**k are you! Tell me now!" I say as I gasp for air. The figure is a dark shadow with nothing, but a outline of a man. "Hello Lilith, I see we meet again." The words slip off his tongue in a disgusting way. Why does his voice sound so f*****g familiar! I know I have heard it, I'm not crazy. "Poor darling, you seem so scared, no need to act so tough. I see right through you."  Once he finishes he reaches up to grab my bruised face. "I never asked you, who did this to you?"  I know no matter what I do or say I cannot lie to him. Before I know it I'm slammed on to my back and he is now the one on top. "Tell me my love, WHO DID THIS!"  After he raises his voice at me I feel as if I might explode with power from my chest. He soon brushes my hair and for some odd reason I calm right as he makes contact with my scalp. "It was...a guy at my school..I don't know his name." I shiver as his hand remains on my head. Then I decide to do the impossible, I reach out my hand to touch his face. He seems to flinch as I make contact with his soft, creamy like darkness. After a few moments of pure bliss, the shadows surrounding his body, just starts to fade. Before I knew what had happened I see...Ryder on top of me. How? He was the one? I mean obviously something was fishy about him, but why would he expose himself so soon. This can't be real. I'm dreaming, I know this isn't real. "Ryder?" I say with a tremble in my soft voice. "I'm sorry, you weren't suppose to find out. I didn't think you would touch me." He sounds honest for the most part. "What does that mean, Ryder? Why have you been following me around?" He looks...I don't know..worried? "It's too much to explain, Lilith. Trust me." I know deep in my heart, I do trust him even though I don't know him. "Ryder, please. I don't understand." As I talk he get's off me and gives me a helping hand to stand as well. "Lilith, no you don't need to understand. The only thing you need to know. Is trust no one." He turns his back towards me and starts the walk back to the school. His pace is rather quick so I have to jog to catch up. "Please, I'm begging you. All my life I have known nothing. I know nothing about my past or anyone here." I look desperately up at him. But he makes no eye contact and ignores me. Fine. Two can play that game. I start to run towards the school, knowing he would follow. After a few seconds I hear his feet stomping after me. I make a quick, sudden stop. His body hit's me hard. Knocking me over with him following. "Ah! wtf lilith?!" He gets up, brushing off his jeans. "Care to tell me now?" I say with a smirk on my lips. "What you think being annoying will help your case?" I know hes irritated by the look on his chiseled face. "Sorry I thought it would kinda work." He finally looks me in the eyes, I never noticed how green they were. Almost like an emerald color. Beautiful. "Well it didn't, let's just go back to school. We've been out here long enough." He again begins walking back. "You know you can be a real dick." I say with confidence as I walk to the side of him. His face was priceless. It was so red and his eyebrows were arched as far as they could go. "Oh I'm the d**k here? Look at yourself. Begging for answers you don't need!" He seems so frustrated, but I don't care. I'll get the answers I need. "Whatever...dick." I walk off, knowing it will annoy him to no end. I hear loud footsteps, then I am slammed against a large oak tree. "You're trying to annoy me, aren't you?" He says as his lips are hover besides my ears. He holds my hands above my head, he knows I'm too weak to escape. "No, what would make you think that?" I giggle a bit. I can't help it. "You're asking to be punished, you know that?" His hot breathe on my skin is enough to make any girl horny. He bites my ear lobe. Piercing the delicate skin. "Ouch! Ryder!" I'm able to pull my hand out of his grasp and touch my ear. Drop's of blood flow from it. d**k. I've had enough of this. I poke his side, hard. leaving him slightly breathless. I duck underneath his bulging arm. And continue the walk. I hear him laugh. "That was good, darling, but not good enough." He darts for me pushing me to the ground. What the f**k?! Is he asking for a death wish? He gets up, leaving me on the dirty ground. "Let's see what you got, Liith since you seem so cable of protecting yourself." He get's in a stance that makes me feel like he's gonna attack. "Ryder, come on. I don't know anything about fighting. Let's just go." I'm not in the mood for anymore physical activities. My body aches from the running and getting thrown to the ground multiple times. "So you can't fight?" He sounds confused, but I don't know why he would. "Yes? Why would I be able to?" Now he's annoying me. "Hm, strange. Fine then we will practice every morning before school. Me and you." My mouth opens. He's funny that he thinks I will agree to that. "Um, no." I say with my hand on my hip, probably looking pretty sassy.  "Um, yes. You have no choice. I will drag you out of bed if I have to." He copies me and put his hand on his hip, looking so stupid. I make a loud noise that sounds like a 'huff' and walk back. He soon joins my side and we walk back in silence, It's strange though. Because it's not awkward. I feel safe and comfortable.
