Kiss in the Dark
Alfred F. Jones walked up to the class door. The same goofy smile still smacked on his face as he opened the door. "Jones you're late!"
The teacher scowled at Alfred who was now making his way to his seat. "I'm Sorry teach' but you know I missed the first bus and all…"
Alfred was cut off by the teacher smacking his head with his notebook and going back to his own desk.
"You have detention after school Alfred, and don't even think about skipping!" Alfred sighed and nodded while taking down notes.
…
"It's 5:00 so byes teach!" Alfred said as he stood at the door. "Next time make it on time!" The teacher said but Alfred was already out the door and running down the hall.
…
"Ah man the buses are gone." Alfred sighed and started his way down the road to his house. "Geez and now Mat is going to lecture me for being out late."
Alfred had been walking a while when saw a small boy with short black hair wearing a red silk kimono standing on a roof top. "Hey! What are you doing?" Alfred yelled.
When the boy heard him he took a step off the roof and landed safely on both feet. Almost as if he floated down. Alfred gasped and ran over to him.
(Alfred being as oblivious as he is was not scared of the boy at all.) "Hey are you okay?" The boy looked up to him with his dark brown eyes.
Alfred to admit the boy was beautiful. Even more now since he's so close and he looked like an angel.
The boy smiled up at him. It wasn't a sweet smile though but a sorrowful smile.
"Are you Alfred Jones?" 'How does he know my name?' Alfred thought but nodded anyways. "Who are you?"
The small boy took a couple steps back, keeping the same smile he had earlier. "You don't remember me? Not your own master?" He said stretching out the last word and the smile had disappeared.
"I don't know what you're talking about. I don't have a master…" Alfred said getting confused at the conversation. "Then I guess you have not remembered me yet…. Then I will let you remember but…."
He paused getting close to Alfred until their lips were but inches away from each other.
"My name is…." Alfred couldn't hear the last part but he didn't get to ask again because in a second the boy was gone leaving Alfred dumbfounded.
…
The next day Alfred couldn't stop thinking about the boy. He stayed a bit after school then took the same route. Today he didn't care if his brother chewed him out he wanted to see the boy.
He caught a glimpse of something in the distance. He ran towards I t stopping to see if he could see it again.
Suddenly, a tall man with brown hair and strikingly green eyes dressed in cream pants with the legs pulled up slightly and a white T-shirt with a cream jacket draped on his shoulders. His hat was small and he had huge boots on he was holding what looked like a giant silver cross.
From behind him the boy stepped out and smiled. "Were you looking for me?" He nodded stepping towards him but the huge man stepped in front clearly protective.
