Trouble
474 Words
With a brush of the wind, the hairs on my back stand up. I suddenly feel a trickling sensation crawling under my skin.
I smile.
"Hi," I say to the wind in the dark.
The wind moves again.
"You're not supposed to be outside." The wind whispers.
I chuckle, my hair moving along with the wind's movement. "Why exactly?"
I feel the wind's cold whisper softly against my neck, sending unending shivers to my spine, and despite it being cold; I feel hot.
I close my eyes.
"You know why." The wind said, getting stronger, which means it's getting nearer. A delicious thrill starts to rise, and I suddenly feel excited.
"Tell me," I reply, eyes still closed.
"It's dangerous outside."
When I open my eyes, I see him. The wind who keeps on blowing my mind away. He looks like the night itself; dark and mysterious.
I smirk. "Yeah, you're right..." My voice trails off... and I look at him teasingly. "—It is dangerous."
He chuckles, and for a moment I got mesmerized by it. He moves so fast, that I didn't notice he was already holding my waist and guiding me.
"Don't play with me, love." He looks down. "Why are you out so late?"
It is so late. Midnight.
I feel my hands being pulled. His attention goes there. My dog who's on leash senses a stranger so now she's reacting. He goes down on his knees and pats my dog on her head.
"Well, this is the only time I can walk Mate out. You know how I hate daylights."
I'm focusing on his hair, it looks so dark it almost blends with the night itself. Yet it gives out a faint shine because of the moon.
"I might start to think you're a vampire in disguise."
I didn't tell him I was staring. But I know he feels it.
"Ahuh," I say, distracted. "Uh, no. I just really prefer night time." Blinking my eyes, I manage to say a few words.
I hear him chuckling. "And my hair too?"
oh, bummer. I got busted.
"Not just your hair though." I dare say back, adding a naughty tone that I know, will trigger him.
My heart raced when his attention is no longer on my dog, but on me. He stands up and looks at me intensely, making me want to take back what I said.
"Ah, teasing the devil itself, huh?" His eyes darken.
Oh boy.
With a look so intense and so hot, I thought I'm melting already. But I lost it when his eyes narrows while looking at my body up to my face again.
And with his commanding voice and intense eyes, he didn't hesitate. "Take the dog inside."
I knew, at that moment, that I was in big trouble.
But I like it.
