Chapter 2
Hales POV.
I woke feeling strangely refreshed seeing as Kenzi and I have probably had about five hours sleep. My judgment of the time is right as I look at my watch and see that it is 7:01AM. Kenzi has some how slipped on to my lap during the night and my arms must have instinctively snaked around her. I stare at her for a moment until she starts to stir, I don't want to seem creepy so pretend I am still asleep. When I feel that she has fully awoken I realize that she doesn't move but infact she just cuddles up closer to me. I know what my feelings have been like for her since the first day we met but I have never thought I was much more to her than a friend. As she places her head on my chest I bravely stroke her hair. She sits up straight and I open my eyes to see her looking at me with one eye brow raised.
"What was that?!" Kenzi says trying to act like she didn't enjoy it for a split second.
"What? I just thought you might need some comforting to get you back to sleep-" I was cut off as she looks at me surprised.
"Wait you were awake- You know what lets just forget about it." She finishes smiling and shaking her head. I notice how we are stuck in this moment though, as if it is only her and I in the world but then she looks away and instantly I miss the light blue eyes that have dismissed my brown ones. Kenzi hops off my lap and runs upstairs. I turn the X-Box on and start killing some more zombies. About twenty minutes later Kenzi is back down stairs with wet hair and a silk robe around her. I try not to gawk but I can only be a gentle man and try and not imagine what lies beneath the thin cloth around her.
"Did you see Bo and Dyson leave? I went up stairs and can't find them, I've tried calling Bo like a hundred times and I haven't had a peep back so I'm freaking out a little over here." Kenzi said with each word her eyes were getting wider and she was fidgeting more with her hands and feet.
I see the panicked state Kenzi is in, Bo wouldn't just leave without a text or note or anything so I get up and go over to her.
"It's OK Lil' Mama, I get it, your worried about Bo; but I think you're forgetting that she is maybe one of the biggest bad-ass Faes on the block." I finish wrapping my arms around her slender frame. She sags into me and talks into my shoulder.
"We have to find them Hale, I can't just act like she's not hear, she's my best friend so" She gets on one knee and holds one of my hands. " Will you do me the honors of becoming my quest buddy to find our friends?" She sarcastically says making it much more over dramatic then it could have been. I smile showing my teeth and nod. Well this should be fun.
Kenzi's POV
It's day two of constant calling and now I'm freaking out. I feel honestly lucky to have Hale with me else I probably would have lost my shit right now. He hasn't left my side since we found out yesterday that Bo really is missing and so is Dyson, Lauren and Trick. But why are we still firmly planted away from danger, why did we not get kidnapped as well? I don't know but I will find out where my friends are. Hale scares me out of my thoughts by placing his hand on my back, I turn fast but when I realize it's him my heart rate slows and then picks up again as we connect eye contact. No stop it crazy Russian girl, you need to focus.
"OK, so I just called a friend at the station and they said that they saw some CCTV footage of some one that could have been Bo. It looked like she and Dyson just left here yesterday at around 6:30 AM for a reason we don't know, but as they left a van pulled up right next to them and they willingly hopped in. We have a number plate and an address so, do you want to go for a drive?" Hale says watching me, but I don't think he sees what I do next and I don't think I do either. I wrap my arms around his neck and stamp my lips onto his. It was supposed to be a thank you peck, but I felt a pull towards him as his hands found my hips. The kiss went from a small peck to a tender kind of desperate action. Hale lifts me in the air and I wrap my legs around his midsection, he find a near by wall and presses my back to it – In all honesty I'm surprised the wall didn't break through – Hale is the first to pull away, not far, but just far enough that I can see into his eyes without them being blurry.
"I'm sorry Kenz, but for me, that was a long time coming."
"It's OK, I think that kiss has just clarified my internal battle about you."
"Yeah, me too." Hale says smiling and I can't help but let the corners of my lips tilt up. He leans closer to me and the warmth of his breath against my skin makes me shiver, but as a perfect gentle men he kisses me on the forehead and slide me from his hips back to the floor. Dammit, I wish he would be less polite sometimes.
Hale and I walk so close that we brush shoulders and every now and then we sneak a cheeky glance at one another. But our happiness is gone as we see the sight of the address we were told may hold our friends. The place looked like a building that was about to collapse, with a fence surrounding it and barbed wire twirled around at the top. Hale looks at me with 'worried' written across his face.
"I think you should stay here, just in case." Hale suggests.
"Oh what, because I'm the puney human? No way sir, I am all over this shit if my friends are in there." I retort. He looks at me for a moment and then he tangles his fingers through mine.
"I'm not letting you out of my sight until I know your safe then." I feel my eyes sting a little, no man has ever really shown me this much attention and dare I say, love.
Hale and I find a small entrance in the fence and climb through it, for a moment he was on one side of the fence and I on the other, and it felt horrible, so I quickly scrambled through it cutting my arm at my struggle. I try to hide it like it's not a big deal but Hale sees my discomfort and finds the cut. He whistles it away and I can never get used to just how awesome a Siren is. I latch onto his hand again as we get closer to the ratty stone walls.
Inside it smells of rat piss and damp walls -trust me I've slept in a number of places like this to understand the smells- it is dark enough inside that I get my phone out and use the flashlight on it. As we make are way through the halls it comes into recognition that this could have been an old school, many years ago. Hale perks up as if he heard something and starts in that direction. We see a small light under one of the class room doors and tentatively more towards the door. After about three minutes of trying to listen but hearing nothing we open the door. Inside is Bo, Lauren, Dyson and Trick starring straight ahead in a line sat on science stalls. Confusion threatens to explode my brain but I push past it. Hale turns to look to the other side of the room and I follow his eye line to see a sweet looking elderly woman perched in a ragged looking teachers chair.
"Hello children, why don't you take a seat." She whispers, but I feel a slight pull with her words. When neither Hale or myself sit she looks beweilded.
"Sirens?" She asked us.
"You're a whispered aren't you?" Hale says and then looks at me. " Whisperers are very much like Sirens, they can manipulate people by whispering things to you just like I can by whistling, they can't affect us and we can't affect them. But you, I don't understand." Hale says frowning. The old lady starts to laugh a wicked laugh.
"Oh, I understand, this girl is a human yes?"
"Yes, the best human you will ever damn well meet." I reply trying not to seem scarred.
"Well it's obvious, I can feel the energy between you from here, the only way a human can resist a whispered is if they find them selves bound with a Siren." But I still don't understand and the raisened looking woman knows so clarifies by saying.
"You are in love with one another, so my powers deem useless to the pair of you." I feel the sweat between Mine and Hale hand as his grip tighten and he looks down at me, almost embarrassed.
"Well I guess I can save your life without even trying huh?" He says trying not to sound fazed but I can see in him what I feel.
What do we do now.
