Hey! I kept you guys waiting for Chapter 6, so I'm going to go ahead and post Chapter 7. It goes together anyways.
I just couldn't get this feeling out of me. What he said was true. I've only known him since this morning, but it was almost like we were long lost friends after erased memory. I knew everything about him yet nothing. I knew who he truly was yet I didn't. I wanted him to follow me, but he probably wouldn't.
I was right. After a couple yards out, I was sure he didn't follow although I never turned around. There just were no footsteps behind me. Still, since I didn't turn around it felt like I couldn't get hurt, so I kept my mind reeling on where to go and my eyes set dead ahead.
At one time when it was time to turn either left or right, I got extremely confused. Literally, it looked like I was dancing because I would go left then right then left then right indecisively. If I went the wrong way, I'd never be able to find my way home.
"Go left."
I almost shrieked spinning around doing a 360 to find none other than Fang. "Freaking God! You have got to stop doing that!" His constant quiet unknowing secretive movements and attitude were bound to get on my nerves sometime soon.
"Doing what?"
"Gee I don't know. Torturing me?"
"How?"
How was I supposed to answer that? Secretly following me while I've been begging you would? Catching me at my worst moments? "Never mind." My tone was frustrated.
"What the hell? You PMS ing?"
"Ha ha very funny." I said turning left. "How did you know where to go anyway?"
"Let's just say I have a very good instinct of direction." he caught up to me easily in swift movements and walked along side me.
"Let's just say? That just says you're pretty much lying."
"No..."
"Yes... Either that or you're not telling me everything."
Silence.
"Oh come on. What can be so secretive about you knowing how to get to the end of this freaking abandoned trail? Have you been here before?"
"I... don't know."
Clearly, I was confused, but so was he? "What do you mean?"
"I mean I can't really remember."
"Did something happen? or..."
"I just don't know. It doesn't matter anyways. We'll get there, you'll be happy, then we leave. We have school tomorrow, remember?"
"Hm... I can't really remember..." I joked lightly trying to lighten the mood.
"Not funny." he started walking faster.
I chuckled. "Ok ok I was just kidding. I'm..." I stopped before I could say sorry. That word was hard for me to say. I'm sorry and I love you just didn't come easy for me. I like you very much? No biggie.
He stopped suddenly. "I just don't know if I don't remember or if I don't want to remember.. my past."
"Fang." I gingerly touched his arm not sure what to do. I'm not good with these kind of moments. I've pretty much been alone for the years of my life that counts. "You don't have to remember if you don't want to and if you don't there's nothing you can do about it."
He half smiled at my words, but I'm not sure if he did or not. It was too dark to see by now.
"Why do you want to get there so badly anyways?"
The wind picked up speed and despite my effort to not start shaking, I shivered, and Fang noticed. "Let's just go home. I'll take you back here someday I promise." his voice had gotten softer. And I'M PMSing?
Giving up was never on my list, but the thought seemed convincing. I nodded. Somehow he saw me nod, and I knew he would.
There were many times when I got confused, but Fang lead me home safely. He dropped me off first before disappearing in a gust of wind. I truly wondered if he was real. Dad still wasn't home.
Thanks for reading!
