Open My Heart: Confusion
Kyo woke up to hear Annika light foot steps in the hall. Quietly so he wouldn't be heard, he followed her down the stairs, and outside. She was getting ready to go on her morning run, he came up behind her and gently placed his hand on her arm. Next thing he knew he was thrown a foot back onto his butt. He looked up at Annika who was covering her mouth. She ran over to him and helped him up while his free hand rubbed the place where she had punched him.
"Kyo! I'm so sorry! I didn't know it was you! I swear it was reflex!" She went behind and started dusting him off, her stomach officially dropping with guilt. Kyo turned and looked at her. He studied her for a moment, not understanding why she was so jumpy.
"What's gotten into you? Last night... I've never seen you that mad before" Kyo looked at her, expecting an answer.
Annika shook her head, "Nothings gotten into me"
"Oh yeah? What about this?" He pointed to his cheek that was red, "I'd have to say that something has. What happened between you and your dad!"
Annika tensed at the mention of her father, "Nothing happened Kyo, so i'd appericiate it if you dropped it" She turned her back on him and was preparing to start her run.
Kyo can and stood in front of her, his face red with anger, "No. I won't drop it. Annika you've been acting different ever since your family came into town! Now I wanna know why"
"That's not your concern Kyo" Annika stepped around him and began running at an easy pace, leaving Kyo to look angrily at her back.
Mumbling angrily to himself he stalked back into the house. People had already started to come down, they looked at Kyo. He went to the fridge, grabbed the milk carton and walked out of the room. He went up on to the roof and glared out into space.
'Who does she think she is? That's not your concern bull shit that's not my concern! She freakin knocked me one in the face!' Kyo was so consumed in his thoughts he didn't realized when Isabella came onto the roof. She sat next to him and waited for him to notice her. When he never did, she coughed to get his attention.
He looked at her, and jumped, "DAMN! Why you have to sneak up on people like that!" He didn't mean to yell at her, but she didn't help his mood by surprising him like that.
"Sorry" Isabella replied timidly. Then a small smile graced her face when she looked at Kyo's face, "You snuck up on her didn't you?" When Kyo looked at her confused she pointed to his face, "She got ya in the face. That means you snuck up behind her." Isabella giggled ad looked away when Kyo touched his face.
"Yeah so? What's that got to do with anything?" Kyo said defensively. Taking a deep breath he looked at her, "What are you doing up here anyways?"
Isabella flexed her toes thinking about how to answer him, "You love Annika don't you?"
Her question caught him off guard, "Well... yeah. She saved my life. She's strong, stronger then anyone i know"
"You don't realize how strong she is Kyo" Kyo frowned, not understanding what she ment but before he could say anything Isabella continued, "Annika, she been through a lot. Her and Papa have a bad history. We never talk about what happened to pull them apart. I look up to her alot. She's put up with a lot of pain from our family. Kyo, you've captured her heart, please treat it kindly. She's tough, but truely that's the face she puts on for everyone around her. From what i've heard from her, you've already seen her soft side. From the look on your face, i can tell she hasn't given a lot of people black eyes. She did a lot back home. So you've been good for her. Keep her safe Kyo, you're probably the only one that can" Isabella got up from her spot and walked to the ladder and clumbed down. Kyo was completely lost. He didn't understand what she ment by he was the only one that could keep her safe.
"Damn, why do girls have to be so confusing" Kyo lay back down and stared at the sky above.
