Chapter Nine

We were heading down the terminal and I kept looking back for that girl who knew my name and recognized me. She was nowhere in sight.

I was heading to grab my luggage and saw black sleek hair, like the girl's. I skipped grabbing my bag and ran after her. There were so many people, I lost which way she went; until I saw her hair again going down a hallway just a couple meters away from me.

"Wait!" I yelled, and ran after her. I was a fast runner, but this girl – wow she was fast! She laughed and looked back at me.

We ended up in a large room – a warehouse, something that probably holds luggage, and she hid behind a crate.

"So Rose, you want to know how I know you?" she asked with a smile in her voice. And I could hear footsteps running.

I ran after her and she was nowhere in sight. It was the only crate in this big room. It looked like a warehouse with only one crate and I lost someone? How is that possible?

I heard footsteps again, but they sounded echoed, from any direction. Confused, I started looking in any direction, circling around.

I heard someone leap down and land swiftly. I jumped around just as arms went around me to muffle any noise I would make. Her arms were unusually strong, though she seemed taller; she must have brought someone else, because this person had muscles and strong arms, and tanned skin.

"Miss me Rose?" Greg whispered in my ear as he nibbled on it.

If his hand wasn't covering my mouth I would have gasped. So instead I bit him.

"Fuck! I'm bleeding now. Play nice Rose." His arms were still around me in an intimate way, so I tried to kick him.

"Let me go you ass!" I yelled trying to kick him in the one place it would hurt the most. He tisked at me; and I could hear the smile in his voice.

"Now look what you've done. Now I have to pin your legs." In a swift moment I would feel so ninja doing; he pulled me down and pinned himself on top of me, managing to hold my legs and arms because of his height.

"What are you doing here?" I might as well get down to business. He obviously was that girl, since he can appear as any moroi.

"Well, if you must know, I must bring you somewhere, but first that means I must get you. I think though we should have some fun first, don't you agree?" He smiled and shoved his gross lips on me.

The kiss was like any other, it sparked something; a moment between me and Lissa. I saw her and Adrian practicing and her doing well that she saw me sitting in the field with Ty for a moment.

Once the kiss ended I stop seeing Lissa. "You pig." I spat at him.

"Oh don't tease me baby. I could always just compel you. Oh and we would have some fun then, let me tell you!" He licked the tip of my nose. Yes, licked it.

I have to do something to have him let his guard down. "Who are you taking me to?"

"I don't know, it was safer not to exchange names."

"You could just keep me here with you; it bet that would be safer."

"Oh no missy; I'm not falling for this again."

"Why not, it was much so fun the first time." I smiled seductively, inviting him in.

"God, you're so mean." He grinned back. Once you get passed the evil part, he was pretty hot, and fun to toy with. He leaned down and started to kiss me, this time however I kissed back.

His moan almost made me laugh. To slow it down I pulled back, taking his lip between my teeth, then letting go. After that we caught our breath and stared into each other's eyes.

Greg was the first to speak, "We... umm... better get going. This guy means business."

Disappointed, for reasons unknown, he got up with me wrapped so close I felt claustrophobic.

"Couldn't you just put like rope on me?" I awkwardly suggested.

He silently laughed, I could only tell because his body shook with it. "What, you don't think this is fun?"

He led me to the end of the warehouse where a black car was parked. I wonder how I could have missed that.

I was pushed in and felt eyes on my butt since my arms were still held, so it was an awkward position. Greg climbed in next to me and then proceeded to put duct tape on my feet and hands, and then my seatbelt was fastened.

I shook my head, "Now he puts the tape on." I muttered under my breath.

"Go" was all he said, and the car started and a door of the warehouse opened. I couldn't tell if there was a driver, but there must have been.

"You might want to get comfy, it's going to be a long drive." Greg said looking up while fastening his own seatbelt.

I laughed, "I'm already comfy." I lifted my taped hands.

He smiled, "Sorry, but you're a tough girl, and I did watch you punch that kid in that locker room that one day. You could beat me."

I noticed that this car was unusually large, but not limo large. It had its own bar, and a radio back here. The windows were tinted black to protect Greg, and possibly the driver.

I took note of my surroundings and noticed that the doors were locked and that it couldn't be unlocked unless you had an electronic key.

"Well doesn't look like I'll be going anywhere." I rested my head back and dozed off.

When I awoke I found myself drooling on Greg's shoulder and him reading a novel. I flinched upwards, and he looked over at me. "Sorry, about that." I nodded at the drool.

His lip quirked up, "It's okay."

"Why didn't you wake me?" feeling awkward, trying to break the tension.

"Because you weren't hurting me." He looked into my eyes and looked away, as if embarrassed.

Wow, that's really nice. "Um... thank you. What are you reading?"

"Well at first I was reading Twilight, trying to compare those made up vampires to us. Really, sparkle? I couldn't get that far. So I switched to Twelfth Night." He lifted the cover so I could see.

"Oh yeah, I had to read that for English." It felt weird, like we were sort of bonding.

He smiled and started to read again.

I wanted to look out the window, and see where we were. I looked around the car and saw the radio, and reached for it with my hands still bound.

You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down

Right Round, blasted into our ears, jumping; I reached for the volume nozzle, and a different station.

I would trade, give away all the words that I saved in my heart that I left unspoken
What hurts the most, was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away

Cascada was on the next station, her words were making it a little awkward between Greg and I. We totally need something upbeat; so I tried the next station.

That tonight's gonna be a good good night
Tonight's the night night
Let's live it up
I got my money
Let's spend it up
Go out and smash it
Like Oh My God

Perfect. The Black Eyed Peas got me dancin and Greg started laughing, even though we were supposed to hate each other we couldn't help but be friends during The Black Eyed Peas. At one point he even started dancing and singing along with me.

After the song ended we were laughing and turned the volume down.

Everything got serious when we felt the car stop.


Don't you guys always fall for the bad boy? I always go for the 'other guy' in every situation.
