Just Before The Disaster
Last night I had the crazy idea to sneak out of my room and go into the forest for a couple of minutes, to get flowers or whatever. Unexpectedly I met Conner the Prince of Fastrea and supposedly my enemy. When I saw him I hid behind a tree as quickly as I could, I couldn’t be seen would he try to kill me? Or would he snitch on me to his father?
I had to make a run for it, if I didn’t I would be caught. I was slowly getting ready to stand up and run. But then my wrist was grabbed and I was pinned against the tree with my hands above me, I looked to see who it was and it was Conner. He looked a me for a good minute then knew it was me but wanted to make sure.
He then got really close to my face and asked in a cold, serious tone “Why are you out in the woods Luna?”
I looekd at him nervously cause I couldn’t tell him why I really was out here in the woods. I had to lie. “Oh… I was sleep waking and woke up in the woods…” I said softly, and immediately he could see through the lie.
“That’s the biggest lie you’ve ever told.” He said in a cold, annoyed tone. “Now, why are you out here in the middle of the night?” He asked in a cold, dark,scary tone. He got even closer to my face, about a three fingers away.
I immediately started blushing and spilled everything, “I wanted to look at the flowers and other things since my parents won’t let me cause of the war!” I said heraldedly and loud enough for him to hear.
He then had a stupid smirk on his face and backed up but kept me pinned to the tree with my hands above my head still. “Thank you, you should get back now things are going to get a little noisy.” He said calmly, but warning me something was coming. He let go of my wrist and pushed me towards the way I came then walked away with his stupid smirk. I ran back to my bedroom immediately, and when I got there I noticed I was still blushing. I wanted to hate him so much but something in me wouldn’t really let me.
