Chapter 14

I waited for the impact. I held my breath.

I was too worn out to dodge or make any more attempts to prolong my survival.

A strong breeze engulfed me , it shielded me. Almost like I was in a tornado I looked around and the air danced around me I stood in the middle of this "tornado".

What the hell is going on?

I shut my eyes. I just wanted my mom and dad.

A pair of arms wrapped themselves around me,I flinched and my eyes flickered open.

I saw his eyes. His gorgeous different coloured eyes. I stared into them.

Words were said , he was speaking but I didn't listen. I just stated into his eyes because they made me forget everything for a moment. My body still shook with fear.

He said something again this time I listened.

"Tehilla are you Okey? " Micah asked.

I didn't reply. He scanned me.

He pulled me into a hug.I sunk into his arms. I felt the fear slowly go away.

Andrew.

"Micah Andrew's out there Mi-

"He's gone he fled as soon as the others and I arrived , Chase and Nia have gone after him."

Nia I wonder if she knew about all this ,if she's on his side.

"Let's get you somewhere safe Okey."

I nodded my head. He carried me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I sat on his bed I wrapped my arms around myself , my back still exposed. My body still with cuts dripping blood. I felt bad for messing his covers.

"Micah I-

"Let me find bandages we'll talk later." His voice was strained.

Silence.

He continued to search through the cabinets.

So much silence lingered in this room. So much weighed heavily on our minds.

I wanted to stay in this room and sit and hold Micah, tell him everything and anything.

He finally approached me with the bandages and some ointment. He gently applied the ointment onto my skin.

His fingers were warm. His left eyebrow is flexed as he applied the ointment.

That meant he was deep in thought. I wondered what he was thinking about.

"Whats on your mind Anderson."

I loved to alternate from calling him by his first name and his surname. He did the same sometimes.

He gave me a small smile. Then locked eyes with me. His smile disappeared seconds later.

He sighs. I stop him from applying the ointment by placing my hand on his arm.

The contact causes him to take a deep breath and pay attention to me.

"We'll talk about it after the meeting we have to get to at the main hall."

I arch my eyebrows. He was also having an internal battle of his own. I could tell.

I wanted to wrap my arms around him and tell him that it was gonna be Okey.

Before I left Micah and I got close really close , the petty beef we had as we grew up dissolved and he became someone I always depended on , someone I cherished closely.

"Okey then." I said.

He shuffles through his clothes in his drawer and pulled out a time shirt and handed it to me.

I tossed it over my head and snuggled my body into it. It had his scent all over.

Silence still drips on the air.

He stretches out his hand for me to take he adds a smile. I take it without hesitation and hop to my feet.

He proceeds to guide me towards the door , our fingers interlocked.

My chest flutters. Micah is the only thing that feels right and stable in my life right now.

I'll admit it he makes me a certain way, a good certain way that no one has ever made me feel before.

We pause by the door.

" I need you to promise to not trust anyone here besides me only me. Only confide in me , wait for me to save you , only look at me with those gorgeous eyes of yours."

I lift my head to face him.

I have a feeling that the look at me part of meant to be taken less literal or not.

More questions flood my mind.

"I promise I'll tell you everything when its safe to I promise, right now I need you to trust me." He adds

I return my gaze back to the door.

"Okey."

We step out of the room.
