Chapter 2
I didn't know how I was going to escape! I wanted to go home! Jet, Scourge, and evil clone of Silver kidnapped me again, only if I had a plan. I looked at the window on my side, in the bed. That's it! I got an Idea! I lifted the window seal open and cut the screen. I slid myself through. It was a long way down, but I think I can manage. I was afraid of heights. Maybe I'll just die! I climbed down the building trying not to touch a loose brick. I fell on my back. I was in so much pain right now, you don't even know it! I tried to get up but I couldn't the guards were running towards me! I had to get up! All I thought was get up Angel! Get up! I started to slowly pull myself up. I was shuddering, looking back each time. They were getting closer and closer and closer. I slowly started to make my way to the wall and climbed it. The guards tried to pull me down. I was losing my grip. Think about your braveness, everything! Think about everything you'll lose if you don't make it. I pushed off and pulled myself on top of the wall and made a fall landing in a pile of leaves. I ran off trying to not worry about my pain. When I wasn't looking I tripped into a another hedgehog. He was black with red stripes on him. He looked down at me, he didn't look mad at me.
"Are you alright?!" he said in a dark tone
"Yeah, I'm okay, I'm sor-" I stopped.
"What?" he asked
"Who are you?"
"I'm shadow... shadow the hedgehog... and just watch where you're going." Shadow said. I don't remember seeing him around anywhere... he gave me a wicked smile. Was he reading my mind?
"I'm sorry, I'll just go." I was trying not to show my fear of him. I got up and started my way. Shadow grabbed my arm. I looked back at him.
"What do you want?" I asked nervously.
"You fear me.." he said... I looked at him nervously and fear. I was shuddering.
"You read minds?!" I asked curiously. Shadow nodded and I blushed.
"Don't try to hide it." He said with a smirk. I slapped my hand from his grasped and I ran, but he didn't come after me. I ran home. I fell asleep on the couch. I couldn't believe what was happening to me... I thought to myself. Shadow was so cute and adorable! I-I missed him... but I didn't even know him like that... What was I thinking? I couldn't be in love, right?... I kept saying his name over and over and over again. I then noticed I was obsessed with him... I looked up at the ceiling then back down on the table. Shadow was written all over my arm and on a piece of paper. I've never felt like this since high school. Let me be exact. Since the ninth grade, I didn't want to be like this. But I was. I couldn't stand it. I ran upstairs. What else do this involved?! I couldn't control my hands, my fingers, I was writing on the walls. This still couldn't be happening. But I knew I was crazy about Shadow. Maybe I should clear my mind. Yeah, I'll do that. What place relaxes me? That's it! The Coffee Shop. The coffee shop was bright with lights. My town was very supportive. I work at the coffee shop, but I have the whole month off because of school and birthday. I am in college for the year. I've been in college for 3 years now wanting my doctor's degree. I want to become a doctor and a children's doctor too, but that's busy work. I mean I'm only 17, nut I'm really smart and I skipped a couple of grades. When I 15 years old, I skipped ninth, tenth, and eleventh, and twelfth grade. My mom is encouraging me. She's been a complete bust when my dad died from a car accident.
The Coffee shop was my escape from home, school, college, and mostly drama. I was sitting in the back alone. I sipped my coffee. How was this going to end up? Did I like Shadow? Why did I react that way?! I was so embarrassed! I sipped my coffee again. The forth coffee I had under an hour. I couldn't tell or explain how I felt. When he touches me, it's like fireflies flying all around me. Birds singing, rainbows sparkling, the sky is blue, the rain is drizzling. I just feel happy, no wait, I feel excited! The best feeling ever was revealed! His dark skin and his white chest fur and his red eyes, he looked so adorable.
"Mam'... excuse me?!" a young white cat called me, knocking me out of my thoughts. I realized I was drooling. I wiped my lip with a napkin.
"Would you like more coffee?!" she asked. I looked up at her.
"No thank you." I said back, kindly.
"Well, your bill will be here in a sec... alright?!" She told me.
"Thanks for telling me" I replied in a sweet and generous tone trying not to scream from irritation.
"Your welcome! Are you still a straight A student in school?" She asked me, giggling and smiling.
"Yes, of course." I said, getting irritated already.
I wanted to yell at her from knocking my thoughts out of place. What was wrong with me? Why was I acting like this? I was so curious why.
The waiter Jane gave me my bill and I paid. I wondered curiously about if Shadow liked me or hated me. I felt a funny feeling in my stomach. I had to find out what was really going on. I couldn't let Shadow find out. Not until he tells me first. I walked home after. I was still thinking about Shadow. I couldn't get him out of mind! Even if I tried so hard to get him out but it was no use. Home was a sweet place. I thought about it as I sat on the grass by the coffee shop. I felt dizzy.
"Home Sweet Home" I told myself. I smiled and giggled softly, maybe a few chuckles but that was it. I thought about if Jet was going to kidnap me again. What if he kills me this time?! Or rapes me for escaping! I thought again. I thought about that one time I tried to escape...They took me upstairs and threw me on the bed.
"Don't come near this door!" Jet said angry. I cried and cried so much, begging someone would help me. I looked out the window and thought hard. I would rather die than be here. I could do the same thing in my dream. I climbed onto the roof, but I slipped to the ground it was a long fall. I felt the pain in my stomach and blood rushed out, I was going to die! I thought... I also thought about if Shadow saved me and carried me in his arms?! I smiled widely.
That would be, just, amazing! I thought before I collapsed on the grass.
