Hey Minna! Chapter 2!
Chapter 2
I looked over my shoulder, and saw Cobra sitting on the couch, staring off into space. I sighed, and went back to drying a plate that I just washed.
After a while of silence, I looked at him. He started to watch something on the Lacrima. I finished drying the dishes, and walked over to the couch. I sat down next to him, and glanced up at him. He gave me a side look, and went back to watching the Lacrima.
"What movie are you watching?" I asked tiredly.
Cobra looked at me. "A horror movie,"
"Which one is what I meant,"
"Nightmare on Elm Street," Cobra answered looking at the Lacrima.
I just nodded, and stood up. Cobra glanced at me again, and then watched the TV. I sighed, walked into my bedroom, and closed the door behind me. I changed into my pajamas, and looked at the time.
9:30. Time to go to bed.
I walked out of my room, and over to Cobra. He is still watching the horror movie. I came out at the wrong time, and saw something scary. I squealed, and ran back into my room. On the other side of the door, I hear Cobra laughing. How embarrassing… I thought turning red.
He laughed even harder, giving me a hint that he read my mind. I turned redder, and slid down the door. Once my butt hit the floor, I heard Cobra turn off the Lacrima and some movement-almost like shuffling.
I knew that he was going to bed, and quickly got up. I started to lie down on my bed until the bad thoughts entered my head.
What if Cobra tries to kill me in my sleep? He is a criminal after all. What if he rapes me in my sleep? Now that is just too wrong to even think about.
I let out a sigh and fully layed down on my bed. I turned to my side, and looked out the window, wishing that my parents were still here, telling me that everything is going to be okay. They would also tell me that I'm doing the right thing with helping Lahar and (possibly) the Magic Counsel.
I closed my eyes, and soon saw the pink haired dragon slayer that is known as Salamander, and my best friend.
Natsu Dragneel.
What would he be thinking of if he found out that I'm babysitting Cobra, someone who almost killed him, and Erza? I know he might flip, but how bad will it be? Will he try to find me if he found out? Will he even help?
I just shook my head, those questions may become reality, but I knew better then to worry about it now. I turned over in my bed, and stared at the door. It didn't move an inch. I then concluded that I will be safe sleeping tonight.
My eyes shot right open when I heard something moving in the living room. I slowly sat up, and looked at my alarm clock.
12:08 AM.
What is going on in there? I thought. I got out of bed, grabbed my keys, and slowly opened the door.
Cobra was just getting off the floor while rubbing his head. He looked at me with his eye, and groaned.
I concluded that he feel off the couch. I walked over to him, and held out my hand. I don't know what in my right mind that possessed me to do this, but I did.
Cobra grabbed my hand, and I held onto it. I started to lead him through the living room, and into my bedroom. He looked at me confused, and I gave him a just-go-along-with-it look. I layed near the window, and moved over to give him some room. He raised an eyebrow at me, and I just stared at him.
"Look, it's very early in the morning, and I don't do this with anyone," I continued to give him a look, hoping that he will go along with it. "So just get in the bed, and sleep. And don't think about doing anything funny, Dragon boy."
I layed down, and closed my eyes. I felt him getting comfortable, and started to relax. Then, I felt my self drifting off to sleep again.
