Italics- Thoughts/dreams/flashbacks

It was a late cold October evening. I was walking home from a meeting held in school. Why didn't I accept the ride Tadaseoffered? I thought. I decided to take a short cut down an alleyway to get home faster. It was colder in the shadows of the alley and had more of a nasty stench, probably due to the dumpsters crowding the area. I kept getting the feeling that someone was either watching me or following me. Finally after what seemed like forever, I could see the end of the alleyway leading into another street that was hopefully mine. I started quickening my pace when I saw a figure at the end of that alley, barley visible with the shadows surrounding and the all of a sudden foggy mist. uh-oh...should I turn back and run? I thought to myself. I slowed down my pace and eventually stopped completely.

I could barely make out a males' outline figure through the fog. I was starting to panic, knowing now that this stranger could actually rape me. I very slowly took step backwards so that I could at least run a head start and out into the street. He seemed to almost read my mind because every single time I took a step backwards, he took a step forward. I was trapped. I knew now that in that moment I'd have to face him and fight him off. I stopped moving backwards and stood in a fighting stance. He also seemed to stop and stare at me in confusion. I could barley make out his facial lines that I was pretty certain he was smiling, or better yet, smirking. I couldn't help it, his little smirk got to me.

"What do you want?" I asked, thankful my voice didn't give in on me.

"What do you mean, 'what do I want?' Isn't it obvious I want you?" He said, still smirking.

I couldn't respond back. His husky voice sounded so heavenly. Then what he told me had finally sunk in. He wanted me? Why! For all I know he might kill me! His low chuckle startled me. First he was right in front of me about twenty feet away, now he was right behind me, his breath tickling my cheek. I could feel my face burn wildly. How did he get behind me! I thought. I couldn't help but shutter at the thought of what he was going to do to me. I sucked up my bravery and decided to ask who he was. I thought it was better to know the name of your assassin so that you could come back to haunt them later.

"Um..W-whats your n-name?" I stuttered. I couldn't be as brave as I was trying to be.

"How about your name instead," he responded back. Well what do I have to lose? I thought it out and decided to make up a name instead.

"Ayako. Now yours," I said trying to sound like I wasn't lying. He just smirked right and my face and looked at me with doubt.

"Oh really? I kind of thought Amu fit you better," He said, still smirking. I froze. How did he know my name!

"H-how did y-you know"? I squeaked out. Can he read minds! Can he see through my lying!

"Well to be honest your name is written right on your bag," he said it like it was pretty obvious. Damn! I should have known! I thought. After I calmed down a bit I asked him for his name again.

"Ikuto. Also forgive me for this..."

"Wait! For whaa.."

*Thunk* Amu was knocked out cold, right into Ikutos' arms.
