Chapter 5 - I Will Never Quit!

*******************

My ears rang at his statement, and my heart sank to the pit of my stomach. How could he?, he had never been this strict to me, yes he can be overbearing most of the time, but not this cruel.

I was about to retort, but ended up only twitched my lips, and smiled weakly at him, while cursing inwardly. I will have my revenge on him, soon enough.

I ignored his gloating expression, as I try to steady my breath, and oxygenate my deoxygenated blood. He can continue mocking me all he wants, when I replenish my energy, I will tear him to pieces. I thought to myself, as I glared at him.

''Don't you dare touch me.'' I hissed, as he made to help me up. I won't give him the chance to see me as a weakling. So I slowly sat up, before seeking the handrail for support, as I tried to get my footing. I winced, as an intense pain shot up through my leg, beads of sweat formed on my forehead. I must have sprained my ankle.

I bit my lips, as I balanced my weight on my left leg. ''so? Who are you taking me to? I asked with seriousness.

He chuckled at my persistence, as he moved towards me, his steps unhurried, he closed in on me, as his fragrance filled my nostrils, he was closer than necessary.

I don't know why I've always found his ginger scent appealing, the fact, that the scent was linked to so many memory~chain, made it impossible to ignore. I could remember vividly back in high school, I came to their house, to study with his sister, he was one haughty, naughty, overbearing, and beautiful prick. I later came to realize, that I wouldn't have been in any fight with him, if I wasn't sturbbon myself.

I jolted back to reality, when I felt his hand caressing my face. His sharp eyes, that were as clear, as an ocean, were staring at my every reaction, like they could see through me. I felt lost in those lustrous glittering pair of diamond, as his long, thick brown eyelashes fans over them.

He swept few strands of my hair behind my ear. he knows the kind of affect, he had on me, especially when he stares at me like that, or it's probabaly the Vodka, working it's wonders in my body.

'' Don't you want to find out?, don't you love mystries anymore?''

'' Stop messing with me.'' my voice was incoherant, as I warned him. His lips curled into a mischiveous smile. he must have noticed, the increase of my heart rhythm, because hell!, they were druming loudly, for no reason at all. My energy was draining slowly, we still have a long way to go, it doesn't seem wise, to just stand, and be lead, like a puppet straight to his thirst trap. '' Shall we?'' I asked, with a wide smile, to mask my discomfort.

''After you my lady'' he also responded, with a smile. I'm sure he must have noticed my predicament, since nothing hardly escapes him. Always looking for a way to bully me. I would rather save my energy than argue with him.

Obviously, going back isn't an option any longer, so I limped as slightly as possible, and took the stairs one at a time, I bit down tightly on my lips to withstand the pain, as I made my way up.

I was really sweating everywhere, even my under arms were not spared either, and my melons were proudly, peeking out, through the cotton fabric. This night couldn't get any worst, can it?

I despite the fact, that he just stood there, with his hands folded without offering any help. Uhhh! That I said I wanted no help, doesn't mean I didn't need one, he should have insisted, so I won't feel like his doing me any favour.

There is no way in hell, will I take my words back, I increased my pace, despite my protesting leg. By the the time I reached the top, remaining a staircase to go, I felt crushed. I don't know if I would be able to make it. I stared at the last flight of steps, with detest.

********

She is one stubborn goat, I tell you!. I shook my head, as I observed her. She is so unreasonably difficult to deal with, that I suffer from headache. It was clear, by her gait, that she was in pain, and I really want to assist her. The only reason I forced her here, was to teach her a lesson, since she seems to have forgotten, what I told her about being violent. She is a lady, for that matter, a feisty and stubborn one.

'' I can see you love it here.'' I know that was a stupid question, but she was being senseless. The glare was very well expected, so I wasn't fazed by it.

'' of course not! I.Hate.It.Here! '' I found it funny, that she had to grit those words out, but of course I didn't let it show on my face.

''Then move it, Or would you rather I carry you up?'' her widened eyes were really amusing.

'' Don't even think....'' I ignored her protest, as I swiftly lifted her up, and carried her on my shoulder, and made my way up with ease.

Going through the remaining steps shouldn't be a problem. The only trouble was that her skirt was too short, that I didn't even know where to place my hand, but I did manage to hold her tightly by the knee.

''PUT me down you prick!! '' She just doesn't know when to accept help.

'' quit already, I'm not enjoying this either!'' I complained, as she continued hitting my back. Finally, we reached to the top.

I continued down the left, before stopping at the middle section, and slid my key card through the panel wall.

I put her down, as the wall slid open. ''Now you can stop struggling.'' I mumbled, as went through the pathway, expecting her to follow suit, but she just stood there.

'' What now? Are you scared?'' I raised an eyebrow.

I knew this was a lot to take in, but I warned her, not long ago, but she wouldn't listen.

''What is going on? Am I in danger again?'' She asked quitely, with a knitted eyebrow.

I didn't like her getting worried at all. '' No, you're not.'' I assured her. '' But you would have to spend the night here. Is that okay by you?'' I asked formally, knowing that it would irk her.

'' Quit the courtesy, I'm being serious right now, is there anything, that I should know?'' I studied her for ba while, I can't exactly say anything right now, since nothing have been confirmed.

''Nein, there is none. Now can you stop being difficult and follow me?'' I pleaded.

'' NO! I'm not going anywhere further, until I know where, who and what I'm doing here.'' I pitched my eyebrow in frustration. '' I've already told you what you're doing here.'' I reminded her.

'' Okay, then where and who am I going to?'' she demanded, leaning against the wall for support. I thinned my lips at her ignorance. '' WHERE is my house, and WHO is me, wasn't that obvious already? I continued forward, leaving her behind. ''You can stay there all you want, but mind you, the door will soon close.''

I smirked, as I heard her footsteps behind me. '' Since, when did you become so secretive?.. Why am I even going to your house?... Is this what you pass through every day?'' I shook my head. ''You're asking too many questions at a time. Which should I answer first?

I pushed the painting on the wall, after I had peeked through then camera. I went through, and emerged in my bedroom.

I waited for her to limp through too before closing the narrow shelf in place and arranging some books, that had slanted, and also switched the light on. ''Sit, I gestured to one of the beds, and give me your leg'' I declared with no room for argument.

She pouted her lips in protest, but I still maintained my stern look. I was relieved when she did so, without any complaint. I squat with one knee placed on the ground, as I carefully observed her right ankle. My eyebrows knitted tightly, as I observed how red and sore her right ankle was, and it was slightly swollen. She has been in pain all this while.

'' You stubbon fool!, you had had these sprain for a while now, why didn't you say anything?'' I rebuked, nd what was that suppose to mean, were you inituating something?''

''No I wasn't!'' I answered with a straigth face. '' You would have to make do with noodles'' I offered as I gently soothe her injury with slow massage.

'' I don't see any sense, to say anything, when it was you that put me in that position in the first place, and besides I didn't realize it at first.'' Okay but my intention, wasn't to harm her in any way.

'' Just stay put, while I get some ice pack in kitchen. If you need anything I'm down stairs.''

'' I'm kind hungry, like real HUNGRY.''

''Off course you are! '' I laughed at her exasgeration. she squinyted her eyes at my respond.

'' Aping, that she was still crazy about the food.

'' Yes of course, and thanks, because you would be the one cooking it.'' she gave me one of her sly smile.

'' Okay'' I agreed. '' But you would have to get down to the kitchen. Eating is not allowed in here.

''' But why? I want to stay in here, and on the bed, cant you see my condition''

'' Your cuteness, will not lead you anyway. And who said, you would have to walk by yourself.''

''What?? .... don't even...''

I lifted her, but this time in a princess style, without waiting for her permission.

'' There would be time to whine later, but now you need to be taken care of.''
