Hey Guys! Sorry for not updating for a while there, I was pretty busy, and still am. For those of you that didn't hear, I made A troupe for hip hop and jazz. I have been practicing my competitions a lot and our rehearsals pretty much doubled. Anyway, I am glad to say I wrote a new chapter.
Thanks,
Rawki
I sleepily opened my eyes hours later. Or at least, it felt like hours later. Glitch's arms were still wrapped tightly around me. He must have noticed me wake up, because he gingerly opened his emerald green eyes. He yawned lightly and turned to me.
"Think we should head back now, Trix?" He whispered.
"Yeah... I think we probably should..." I answered and slowly got to my feet. Glitch brushed the grass off of himself and stood up.
The seemingly endless night was still going strong above us without a single change in the light. The peaceful stars glinted the night sky and the world seemed to be covered in a deep blue abyss. The light seemed to surge in the sky, more than the glow of a billion lights.
The wind blew gently through my hair as we walked slowly back to my house. Glitch was quiet for the most part on the way back, you couldn't blame him though, it had to be 1:00am.
The street lights I saw couldn't even come close to the beauty of the starry night sky. I walked close to Glitch's side while he wrapped his arm around my shoulders.
We strode through the black of the night in silence. Our soft footsteps the only sound around us. We were nearing me house, I could see it on the corner of the block.
I stopped dead in my tracks and Glitch stared at me peculiarly.
"What's wrong?" He asked and brushed my hair out of my eyes.
"I-I think... I should go... Alone..." I started, but choked a little, "I-I mean my parents will probably... You kno-"
"Trix, I get it, it's aight. Your sure you don't want me to walk you back though?" He asked thoughtfully.
"Y-yeah, I'll be okay... It's just over there..." I answered, I felt so quiet my voice was barely audible.
"Aight, see ya later," Glitch finally agreed and planted a kiss on my forehead.
I watched him walk back into the dark abyss towards his own house. I turned back to my house, which was only a few houses down from where I was standing. I inhaled deeply and closed my eyes.
"It's fine, just go back home," I said under my breath, only to myself.
I finally got myself moving, although it seemed like every move I made was against my own will. I stopped a point half way there. I stood like a statue in the black of the night. I didn't want to go back, I didn't even know if I could go back.
"Just go," I told myself, "it'll be fine,"
I took another deep breath and the memories of earlier that night seemed to play back in my mind. I abruptly opened my eyes, not willing to spend another moment thinking about it.
I stepped forward, a bit faster this time. I heard a screeching noise coming around the block. I could see two yellow lights running across the pavement. I walked a little faster, not looking for any trouble.
The black van came into my view and I started walking even faster, unsure exactly what was happening.
Two men abruptly got out of the vehicle when it got close enough to the sidewalk where I stood.
"Hey! Let me go!" I shouted when they grabbed my arms tightly. I couldn't see their faces, the masks they wore and the blackness around me concealed their faces from view.
"I said let go of me!" I shouted again, only louder this time. They seemed to be struggling trying to hold their grip on me. I kicked and tried to run, but it was useless.
"Glitch!" I shouted, "Somebody! Anybody, help!" I screamed out at the top of my lungs.
The two masked men pulled me into the black van and covered my head with a black cover. I could here the ignition start. I was still screaming but the sack over my head muffled my voice.
I felt my hands being tied together behind my back, I tried to free myself, but it was me against however many people were behind me. The tight ropes dug deeply into my skin.
"What going on? Just let me go!" I continued to scream and shout as loud as I could.
"Go ahead and scream, nobody can hear you anyway," I heard a voice from in front of me say.
"W-what do you want?" I asked and gulped hard. I couldn't believe what was actually happening to me.
"That's for us to know, now shut your trap! You don't want me back there!" I heard another man with a deeper voice shout at me.
I did what he said. I kept quiet as the van jerked forward. I couldn't see and I couldn't tell where I was. I wished that I had let Glitch walk me home. I couldn't process everything. I couldn't understand why they could possibly want to kidnap me. Of all people, me.
The van rolled forward quite quickly, i couldn't tell how long it had been or where it was going. I knew was that is couldn't possibly be good.
Glitch walked quietly back towards his house, which was still blocks away. He had his hands in the pockets of his jeans as he walked through the dark night.
"Why do I feel so bad about this? Glitch, you idiot, you shoulda just walked her home..." He thought to himself.
Glitch stopped and looked back. By this time my house was far out his view but something made him stare back.
"J-just go back, and make sure she got home okay..." Glitch ordered himself.
He walked quickly back in the direction of my house. He broke out into a full sprint when he saw my house on the corner.
He saw that the lights were still on inside. The dance genius looked at his watch, which read: 1:28am. He ran his hand over his black and neon green hair before proceeding to walk.
The young protege strode quickly up the steps to my house. He held out his hand to knock that the door but hesitated. Glitch knocked twice on the wooden door after thinking it through again.
He waited outside for a moment. He glanced back and forth between the road and the wooden door before him.
Eventually, my mother opened the door. She glanced outside with a surprised look on her face.
"Glitch... what are you-"
"I cam e to see if Trixie got home okay, she insisted i didn't walk her home," the dance genius explained. My dad came to the door and glared at the young protege.
"What the hell do you want, kid!?" He said angrily.
"I-I just came here to see if Trixie got home okay," Glitch explained, again.
"She ran off and didn't come back, wait... Y-you don't know where she is?" My dad asked in a slightly calmer tone.
"No sir, I was wondering if you did," Glitch answered, quite confused about the whole thing.
"So-so she isn't with you?" My mother asked, trying to keep up.
"N-no ma'am, I-I thought she came home. I knew I shoulda walked her home..." The dance genius muttered under his breath.
"I'm going to go and see if she's upstairs, m-maybe we didn't hear her come inside..." My mother explained before running up upstairs to check my room.
Glitch stayed quiet for a moment and my father didn't lose his glare.
"Listen, kid. If anything happens to my daughter, it's all on you. Don't think that just because you got my wife on your side that I still can't kick your ass. Now, you better get off of my property before I call the cops." My father threatened, but less loud than last time.
Glitch nodded slowly.
"Now get the hell off my doorstep!" My dad shouted and slammed the door.
Glitch did as he was told and started to walk down the driveway. He pulled out his cellphone and tried to call me. The call went directly to voicemail.
"Hey.. Trixie, where are you? I'm worried about you... I-I came by your house and you weren't there. G-give me a call as soon as you can," Glitch spoke into the phone.
His face was painted with a look of fear as he walked back home in the seemingly endless night.
