Hey…I know. I'm sorry. But I was confused how to continue with the story. I hope you guys don't forget about me! But I'll TRY. I promise. I can TRY to post sooner. The world here mostly the same, but sorta different, so try and understand, and use your imaginations please. Also, since I believe u guys are smart enough to figure out whose point of view I'm narrating from, I won't write it in. I hope this chapter lives up to your expectations!
My Own Happy Ending
Chapter 3: We Meet Again
I parked my car, got out, and locked it, enjoying the crisp night air. I set out a moderately slow pace, just hoping to immerse myself in the silence of the night sky.
And then it started to rain. I was running for it, and when I reached the front of the building, I saw a flash of white in the darkness around the side of the building.
I knew about the park there, but there weren't many kids in the area, and even If there were, how many would be playing outside in weather like this?
I decided to just take a quick look, but what I saw shocked me.
The petite form of young girl slipped from one of the swings and onto the ground. She had fallen unconscious, it seemed. He ran over to the park, and thought desperately.
'I don't know where she lives, but until then I can't leave her here either! She blacked out! And it seems like she has a fever,' he thought, smoothing the wet hair away from her face and checking her forehead.
He saw a backpack lying wet, off on the side, and assumed it was hers. He swung it over his shoulder, and then lifted her in a princess carry. She felt so cold.
…
After taking the elevator up to his personal floor, Ren shifted the girl in his arms to get out his key card. He swiped it to open the door, and pushed of his shoes, carrying the girl straight to the sofa.
She had a raging fever, that much even he could tell, but she was shivering. After stripping her of her wet shoes and socks, Ren covered her with the largest, fluffiest, warmest blanket in his house. He had placed her in the living room, on the couch, even though he had a guest room, for the sole purpose of the fireplace. Ren quickly walked to the kitchen to grab the box of matches he kept just in case. He lit the fireplace, that he thankfully, had kept in shape although he never bothered using it before. The logs flared up as he turned to look at the girl, but she was still shaking.
Ren wondered who she was, and how she got into that park, what she was doing there, and why was she so sick. Her face felt familiar to him, but he couldn't place it.
She seemed so tired, helpless, and small swallowed by the blanket. Her shivering increased. He wanted to help her, and he knew how, he just hoped the girl wouldn't freak out after she woke up.
He briskly walked to his room, and pulled out and old shirt that might fit her, and a pair of his pajama bottoms. He then walked to the thermostat and turned the heat up before he returned to her side at the couch.
Ren blushed, and slowly peeled the blanket back. His hands trembled only slightly as he reached for the bottom edge of her worn shirt. Before he had averted his eyes, but now he couldn't help looking. Her long, black hair fell around her cute heart-shaped face like a dark halo of waves. Her skin was pale but flushed and tinted pink as if she was blushing. She had long lashes that dusted the top of her cheeks, and kissable pink lips that were parted slightly as her breath was released every few seconds. The firelight just made her all the more beautiful. It was unexplainable, but enthralling, as if she had cast a spell on his mortal form.
Her chest rose and fell with her breathing and he was careful not to jostle her too much as he swiftly lifted her body so that it looked as if she was sitting up. Her body was leaning against his, and he was thankful that he wasn't able to see her body almost unclothed. Ren pulled the wet shirt up and over her head, fumbling with her arms. She shivered, in just a bra, and Ren pushed away his other thoughts, in favor of her health. He felt his heartbeat thundering, and his blood pulsed through his body, pounding in his ears, and coloring his face. He knew himself, that he was enchanted by this woman's beauty, but even more intrigued by her mystery, and she had a comforting familiarity that he simply could not place.
He reached for the warm t-shirt that he had scrounged through his closet to find. He pulled it on her, and chuckled at the sight she must have made. The shirt, reached halfway to he knees, and looked much too large to fit on a girl with her lithe form.
He gently laid her back down on the couch, and averted his eyes as his long fingers fumbled with the small button on her jeans. Successfully undoing it and the zipper, he swiftly pulled them down in one quick motion, and gulped, staring down at her body. She was wearing only his shirt that fell so close to hidden treasures that could be so easily discovered.
Kuon scolded himself for thinking such thoughts about a mere girl whose name he didn't even know. He pulled the flannel pajama bottoms quickly up to her waist, and laughed softly at the petite girl in oversized clothes. He tucked the blanket up around her and smoothed her now fully dried hair away from her face.
Her shivering was almost non-existent but Ren wanted to stay with her, in the living room.
'The fire is burning, and she might wake up in the night,' Ren thought, convincing himself those were his only reasons.
'At a time when I was wishing that something would break me out of my boring daily life, God sends me an unconscious girl, huh? It IS true then…be careful what you wish for…because you just might get it.'
Ren smiled gently, as he fell asleep on the floor of the toasty room, leaned up against the sofa.
