A Walk in the Moonlight

Chapter 2: Invincible

I stared at him, horrified. And I could tell by the way the entire

parking lot fell silent, that the few people there saw the blade he was now holding.

"Der-Derek?" I said, stuttering, completely and undoubtably terrified.

"Wh-what are you doing?" I asked. So scared that I was shaking.

"Why did you say no? You didn't have to LIE and make up some EXCUSE like EVERY OTHER GIRL OUT THERE!"

"D-Derek, I really am busy...please believe me, I'm not lying. I'm not like every other girl." I was on the verge of crying now.

"Your LYING!" he screamed at me. And before I could even blink, I felt a warm liquid draining out of my right arm. He slashed me!

He was about to lunge for the second time when I saw a MASSIVE figure appear, hurl himself almost inhumanly fast toward us and jump in beween us.

I suddenly heard an unmistakably loud CRUNCH that I realized was Derek's nose. He just got punched! And by this big guy!

I looked around the big guy, towards that stupid asshole that cut me, and saw the knife on the ground to the left, and to the right, Derek holding his crooked nose which was bleeding. Serves him right! That stupid b****! But when I noticed his nose bleeding...it also looked like that big guy wasn't breathing...'cause his chest wasn't moving. Not. that. I was looking at his chest or anything. Anyway, I'm sure he was breathing though. Still...how odd.

At that moment, Derek was stupid enough to try to even fight back. So he tried to punch the big guy and when Derek's fist was only a couple of inches away from his face, the big guy caught it in his own, and with the slightest movement of his buffed out hand, I heard another sickening snap and a cry of pain. "Oops." Big guy said, all too innocently.

"And if you EVER mess with her EVER again...you will be NEUTERED! NO! You will WISH you were neutered after you find out what I'LL have in store for you! So don't EVER. COME. NEAR. HER. AGAIN!!!" Big guy threatened.

After that threat, I wasn't so surprised that the not-so-tough-guy-after-all ran off crying to his mommy. :(

The big/hot guy turned around to face me with a face full of emotions that I recognized to be...angry, amused, concerned, worried, confusion, and most of all, an emotion or expression that I couldn't exactly name...control maybe? Well whatever it is, I don't care. This guy just saved my life!
