BLACK IS THE NEW WHITE

Chapter 3 Nyctophobia

Amber's POV's

Black is the new white, After dark comes the light. No matter how dark and how terrified i am walking in the dark, there's always the light at the end of the road, hopefully brings us a new hope to go out of the darkness.

At least i won't be alone now, even if i have to get stuck with my worst enemy in this kind of situation, i don't mind at all. Because my Nyctophobia makes me hate being alone in the dark and soon this place will be completely dark.

By the way Nyctophobia is an extreme fear of the dark. People with nyctophobia may fear being alone in the dark. I could have anxiety in dark places, and i have trouble sleeping in a darkened room. This is my biggest problem.

And spontaneously I jumped on Noah and hugged him without even thinking. I just can't help it to express my feeling of happiness for not being alone in the darkness tonight.

"Get off me!" He's yelling at me but i don't care I'm freaked out.

"Thank you for being here Noah, I was terrified being alone here in the dark, I am lost and hopeless don't know where to go"

"Stop, I'm here for a reason and I'm not trying to rescue you, and i get lost because I'm following you"

"Why do you follow me, are you a stalker?"

"Oh please stop, there's no way I'm stalking such unattractive nerd country girls like you!"

"Oh whatever, then why are you following me then?"

"It's all because of my stupid sister became your best friend that's why"

"Hold on, what do you mean what it has to do with her i really don't get it?"

"She threatened me that she will tell my dad about her accident that happened to her is all because of me so she keeps asking me to protect you from far away while she's not around so i just follow you"

"Wait what, how could you do that to her, she's your sister you moron"

"What did you just call me, alright you go find your own way and i go my way, i don't even want to babysit you for her if it's not because of her blackmailing me, but now i don't care anymore good bye"

"Wait hold a sec, my apologized for calling you moron, you know she's my best friend and i love her, i just can't believe that you hurt your own sister, in my opinion brother has to protect his own sister I'm just saying but still don't leave me alone please i beg of you"

"It was an accident, I did not intentionally make her fall from the stairs, she was tripped by herself while i tried to scare her so it wasn't my fault"

"Alright i believed you, but please don't leave me alone here because i had Nyctophobia and my anxiety is killing me, I'm really scared"

"Phobia what, what kind of phobia is that?"

"It's a phobia of darkness"

"Alright whatever, but you have to tell Emma that I've been helping you up and told her not to tell my dad about her accident that day, deal?"

"Deal".

We shook hands for the first time and it felt so weird thinking about how badly he treated me at school and we became enemies, but here we are ended up being stuck and lost together and making a deal for helping each other, it just doesn't feel right isn't it?

We try to keep walking and luckily he has a lighter with a flashlight because he's a smoker. So it wasn't too scary anymore. But then we heard a sound like an animal roaring, it scared the freak out of me. The only thing that came into my mind was that I'm going to die not because of my phobia but maybe because of a tiger or whatever animal is that, my anxiety is heat me up my brain feels like a boiling water that ready to boiled some crazy negativity in my brain, all i think about is how am i gonna die here and i started to creating my own death scenario in my brain, isn't it insane, i need a doctor ugh lemme out of here.

The sky is completely dark now, there's only the moon light and stars are shining bright but it's still hard to see anything so we decided to stay for a night until the sun rises up in the morning then we continue our journey.

The night is cold, we open our backpack and build a tent for both of us to sleep, Luckily I brought my own tent since i know that i won't sleep with anybody but Noah doesn't bring anything with him except for his dead phone which is gonna be totally useless here.

"Thank God you're well prepared, thanks for building me a tent so at least i won't get bitten by thousands of mosquitoes over here tonight"

"Oh excuse me what did you just say, there's no way i would share my tent with you, we can never sleep together there a-a never"

"Then where the hell am i going to sleep?"

"How the hell should i know"

"I have nothing with me except for my iPhone and it's dead"

"Gosh are you stupid or what, we are going to the mountain not to the mall, and how come you brought nothing here?"

"Of Coz i pack some stuff but why would i bother to carry it by myself when i have someone who would do it for me so no I'm not stupid"

"Oh ya no wonder why, i guess you all rich people never work hard in your life, you can just easily pay someone to do things for you without getting your sweat drop"

"Hmm i guess so, money talks now lemme ask you what money can't buy?"

"Money Can't Buy Happiness means that true happiness comes from within, not from possessions that can be bought so yeah in my opinion you can't buy happiness"

"Alright whatever, i don't really care now can you solve my problem, i can't sleep outdoors with mosquitoes and you can't stay alone in the dark are you okay if i just leave you alone here?"

"No no no wait, don't do this to me please don't leave me, alright you can sleep inside but don't you dare touch me or do anything stupid!"

"Who wants to touch you, don't worry you're not my type at all, your fashion style from hair to toe is outdated, you look unattractive, and you are just a nerd so"

"Alright whatever that's enough, are you gonna help me or not, or i will just let you sleep outside"

"Ugh alright I'll help you just because i can build a better tent than you"

"Alright go on, do it then"

On the coldest of the night Under the glowing night sky with the blanket of stars that stretched to infinity with the pale crescent moon shone like a silvery claw in the middle of the jungle of the mountain we ended up sleeping together and that was our first one night stand in a different way. No hangky panky just sleep.

Good night everyone, I hope you enjoy every chapter of Los Angeles I'm in love see you on the next chapter.
