Midnight Shimmer

His hold was so firm and tight that I thought my arm was going to break off. In reflex I threw a huge uppercut, landing on his chin which only made him stagger backwards a little, and then spat out blood from his mouth. The other guy threw his mouth open with wide eyes, in outmost surprise… I guess they have never seen a girl throw a punch like that. Then he used it as an advantage to prove himself to prove himself worthy and grab hold of me. But I bent dodging, Half squatting, i gave him a series of punches on his stomach. He tried to defend himself with a low punch, but I dodged to the left, grabbing the arm and flipping him over onto his back with a heavy thud. Then i sent him one serious punch on the face, telling him to stay down. On raising up a punch landed on the left side of my head, numbing my senses. I felt weak and heavy headed, my head was hurt badly, spinning and my legs gave in. so I reached for anything carefully… `you don’t have to make this any harder…’ The drivers voice was stuck in his throat when he was instantly sent flying across the road by a powerful kick from a guy in black. I was loosing it, my eyes clouded and hvy that I couldn’t even try to look at whom it was. As soon as my hand caught hold of the cars wing mirror, I turned around, pulling myself up to rest on the car and I could feel him yank the other guy up from the floor then slamming him back on the cold hard floor. `What did you do to her?.’ The man roared desperately with a murderous, frightening voice. `We- we couldn’t do…’ he choked on his own blood. `We were only following orders.’ He coughed. Then in a rush of cold wind brushing through my back. `Are you hurt?’ came the most amazingly caring voice. In a British accent. I was already regaining myself so I turned around, coming face to face with the most gorgeous face. My rescuer… was the guy at the club. He smiled sweetly and looked even more handsome. `You look mess,… here you go.’ He took of his Jacket. He looked a lot more better than the way I saw him earlier. His red eyes were now maroon in color, like wine and I could now notice the white in them. He looked calmer and now that he was in full view, he was breath taking and his smell sent more shivers down my spine… I felt like cuddling him. My eyes fell on his lips- soft kissable maroon lips. Just like his eye… the strange maroon. `may i?.’ I shrieked at the rawness of his voice. I just nodded, still unable to say a word. He moved behind, placing it on my shoulders and I immediately felt better. Soon the feeling was knocked out when his light breath blew into my hair, even smelling amazing… how can someone’s breath smell so good? `I think I startled you back there!.’ He said, breaking into my thoughts. `What?.’ I finally said in shock. `I mean you looked a bit scared when I was hoping you’d come over and then before I knew it, you had knocked off a waiter and was gone.’ `S- so you were interested in me?.’ I stammered in disbelief, feeling a blush shimmering up my face. Thank God for my skin color. `Why not?.’ He met my gaze, looking questioningly. `I- I didn’t realize…’ looking down, I couldn’t say anything further. `Yeah! I don’t blame you.’ He nodded understanding. `come on, so what do you need, a ride or a ride?.’ `hmm.’ I sighed blankly, then realized and bursted out laughing. `wait! Hold on.’ He frowned, then produced a white hand towel from his breast pocket, wiping a stay leakage of blood from underneath my nose. I had no Idea, I felt embarrassed immediately. But no! he jut stared at the towel and for a moment it looked like he struggled within himself, but I couldn’t detect cause it was like a flash through my eyes . Then he shook his head maybe wiping off a thought and he popped up a smile. `let’s help you shall we!.’ Who know what this attractive Daredevil had up his sleeves. After pouring up to a gallon of fuel, the car sprang back to life. I creamed, hugging him… it was a bold move, cause he stiffened. I pulled away, clearing my throat. `I’m kind of a hugger.’ I admitted. `no problem.’ He moved away toward his black car parked in a corner. Wait! Is he leaving like that, What about my number?... quickly, he got into his car, starting it with a button. `Atleast can I know your name?.’ I asked, secretly hoping I didn’t sound too desperate. `Jake!.’ He gruffed under hi breath a his hands clenched into a tight grip on the wheel. `Jake, I’m Nicole.’ I smiled. He nodded `Nice to meet you, Nicole.’ Even the way he said my name felt good and then he drove off. Leaving me confused. He didn’t even take one last look at me or didn’t he find me desirable? And speaking of gone. There were no signs of those two guys that attacked me earlier, like nothing happened. This is really a strange town!
