Chapter Five : It's Time to Leave
Their lips were grazed over each other, then they heard voices coming. Kali pulled away quick.
"You hear that?" Kali asked.
"Yea."
"I'm kind of scared."
"I got you."
"You promise?"
"Yes, I promise, forever. I'll always protect you."
Kali couldn't believe her ears. No one was ever that sincere with her. This man that she met the night before was immediately devoted to protecting and caring for her. The voices got closer and closer. Mike held his arms around Kali and she buried her head into his chest.
"Bomb!" The voice said.
Mike looked up and saw his friends Carl and Ryan.
"Carl? Ryan? What the hell are you guys doing here?"
"We lost you at the party and the cops were asking us where you were so we came looking for you. We saw your white truck all smashed and figured you probably went venturing around somewhere." Carl said.
"Wait, the cops didn't follow you, did they?"
"Yea, they're down the cave. Why?"
"Oh no! Mike stay here and don't leave until I'm gone! I'll cover for you and tell them you didn't kidnap me." Kali was about to run down the cave but Mike grabbed her hand and stopped her. Kali looked back.
"Will I ever see you again?" Mike asked her.
"Yes, I promise!" Kali stood on her tip toes and kissed his cheek. Kali then ran down the cave and disappeared. Mike stood in awe, not saying a word.
"Who is she?" Ryan asked.
"Kali." Mike said.
"The princes they're looking for!" Carl asked.
"Yea." Mike said.
"Did you bang her?" Ryan asked.
"What? No!" Mike said.
"Why the fuck not?" Carl asked.
"She isn't just another girl. I think I really like her."
"Hell yea." Ryan said.
"About time you find a girl." Carl said.
"You're one to talk Carl!" Mike said and then he frowned. "I don't even think we can be together anyway."
"Why not?" Ryan asked.
They started walking down the tunnel and to the entrance. They peeked down to see Kali, speaking with the cops and her mother.
"She's a princess. And I'm not…"
"Not what?" Ryan asked.
"Nothing. Princesses don't marry regular everyday people like me." Mike kept frowning.
"Is that her mom?" Carl asked.
"I think so." Mike said.
"She is smoking!" Carl said.
"Word." Ryan said puffing on a cigarette.
Mike starred down at Kali and saw her look up. They both looked at each other, speaking through their eyes. Mike knew just by the look on her face that he'd see her again. He would make sure of that.
