Breath taking

Well not to seem like a freak or a mentally derailed person I stretched out my hands just like he did and introduced myself.

"Oh hi, my name is Lisa, you were the one I saw this morning Right?" I asked as I shook his hand. Up close he was even more breath taking. My sharp intake of breath clarified that.

As our hands touched, I felt it, a kind of spark, and no I'm not talking about the romantic cliché spark. I'm talking about real electric spark here people. You know physics and all.

Shocked (literally) I withdrew my hands back in a hast. He also did the same, with a weird yet knowing look on his face, but quickly covered it up.

"Yes I was" He responded with a mind blowing smile.

"Did you just move here?" I asked even though I knew the answer, I was just trying to make small talk.

This was a small town everybody knew everybody so when a new person moves in to town the whole population would know.

"Yeah just moved in this week" He answered smiling. His smile really was beautiful.

"Oh cool...cool" I said awkwardly not knowing what else to say.

And just like God saved the Israelite, the teacher saved me from the awkwardness by walking in just at the right time.

After that school went on like a breeze, save from when Tom was introducing himself to the whole class and me not being able to explain why I got angry anytime girls flaunted about around him. Yeah sure school was definitely awesome. Not.

And finally when school ended and I said my goodbyes to Madina I began my walk back home.

But for some reason I felt like someone was following me. which I am presently still feeling. Shit today is not the day Lisa you will surely live to see another day.

So I increased my speed to a maximum. I knew this long legs would come in handy someday. But just like me the person also increase their speed.

Oh God it just got worse I could actually hear foot steps now and it's getting close oh no what the fuck was I supposed to do.

Being too into my thoughts I didn't notice when a hand held my shoulder and sprung me fully back to face them. I was frightened 'no fucking shit' but as soon as I saw the persons face my fear turned to immediate relief then anger.

"What the actual fuck Jerry!" I almost yelled, exhaling loudly, I Soo badly want to slap that smile off his face.

"Hey Lisa." Jerry said with his infamous annoying smirk. Can I kill him now Christ!

" You're kidding me right?" I deadpanned. Robbing my hands against my temple. I could feel an headache coming up.

"What? I have been trying to get your attention all day Lili, but you didn't even give me a chance, all because your undivided attention have been on the new kid" wait was I really staring at Tom? I didn't notice.

"Well didn't that give you a hint I didn't want to talk to you" some guys just can't seem to read signs. Truly daft beings.

Not wanting to waste my time on him anymore I continued walking, but was stopped again, and this time all my anger and frustration that I once had turned to fear. He held my hands too tight that I think a bruise was going to form from that.

"Jerry! Stop you're hurting me" I tried to move my hand from his grip but he budge.

" I tried this the easy way Lisa but you just had to walk out on me 'again', that's not right now is it?" he said, while looking at me with a glint in his eyes. crapping hell I'm in real trouble now.

Doing the only thing I could think of, I started shouting for help profusely not wanting to experience anything he wanted to do to me. Thinking that this was the end I closed my eyes tightly not knowing when another person showed up.

"Now is that anyway to treat a lady?" A voice asked.

I opened my eyes in curiosity, wanting to know who was the source of that voice. Shocked at who I found it was I couldn't utter a word.

"I would close my eyes if I were you Lisa" Tom said with a deadly glint.

"Huh?" I asked not understanding.

Before I could even blink Jerry was on the floor with a bloody nose and Tom was on top of him beating the shit out of him and I mean beating him seriously I had to heed Tom's warning to close my eyes because of all the blood I saw.

Still with my eyes closed I heard groans of pain coming from Jerry. I really won't like to be him right now, serves him right though. Although I still felt slight compassion for him.

"It's okay, you can open your eyes now princess" I heard a deep gentle voice call out.

Just to be safe I didn't dare open my eyes. I heard a voice sigh and chuckle a little, it was so soft and low that I almost didn't hear it.

Then I heard light footsteps Making it's way to me. And when a soft hand poked my cheeks I opened my eyes, and the scene that greeted me was breath taking. And no I'm not talking about the groaning Jerry on the floor, I'm taking about the lick worthy individual that stood at the front of me, he was Soo close that our breaths were almost mixing.

Then when I was about thank Tom for saving me, I don't know if it was my eyes or my mind that was messing with me but his eyes shunned a very vibrant red colour living me speechless.

Next thing I know I'm feeling really incredibly weak and dizzy and I felt I was being carried and taken into a car. Then darkness finally consumed me.
