Chapter 7
Billi's POV
Darn it, how long have we been walking? I silently thought to myself. Suddenly, the sun disappeared. I looked up and saw storm clouds covering the sky as there was a loud clap of thunder.
"Son of a-"I muttered just as rain started falling from the sky. I cursed and ran under a huge tree that would cover me from the rain. Kyle soon joined me, sighing silently. We stood there in silence for a few minutes.
"So, your name is Kyle?" I asked. He shook his head.
"Wait a minute, your name ISN'T Kyle?!" I shouted. He shook his head.
"Then why'd you say it was!?" I asked, angry at him. He sighed.
"To shut you up and to make you follow me." He replied. I glared at him.
"Why can't you just tell me?" I asked.
"Why should I tell you?" He shot back.
"Because it's the nice thing to do." I said. He chuckled.
"Do you honestly think I care about being nice?" He asked me. I was silent for a few minutes.
"Fine. I'll just go now." I said calmly and started to walk away.
"It's pouring rain. Where do you think you can go? And how long do you think you'll last before I find you again? I know you're not that strong without your little master." He called after me. I spun around and stomped towards him.
"Lee. Is. Not. My. Master." I said, angry that he would even think that. He smirked down at me.
"Then what is she? You can't really do anything without her. You can barely survive without her. I have to keep giving you blood just so you can keep going. If she's not your master, then what is she?" He asked. I stood there, stunned. Not only because he was the rudest person I know, but also because what he said was true. Am I just a slave to her? I can barely survive without her… I thought to myself. I quickly shook my head. Of course I wasn't! Lee needed me just as much as I needed her!...I think.
"I am her and she is me. We are two of the same people. Without each other, we are only half of what we really are." I explained. He just chuckled to himself.
"It took you a pretty long time to figure that out. Are you positive about that?" He asked with a smug smirk on his face. Suddenly, there was a huge slapping sound. And it wasn't thunder. My hand burned and there was a red mark on his check. His head was at its side from my slap and he had a surprised look on his face. I glared up at him.
"I may not be as strong as I should be, but I promise, when I am strong again; I'll make you pay for what you said and for what you did. But for now, you WILL respect me." I told him coldly. He stared at me for a few minutes, looking me up and down. I stared coldly back at him, not breaking my gaze. Finally, he looked away and sighed.
"I guess I did underestimate you. That did kind of hurt." He muttered and I smiled.
"My name is Billi. Now, what's your real name?" I asked. He stared at me for a few moments. He smirked.
"Ryu is my real name." He said.
"And you're not lying this time?" I asked. He sighed and shook his head.
"I'm not lying." He muttered. I smiled.
"Now, if I be nice to you, I expect the same from you." I told him.
"The things I do for this job….Fine." He muttered. I laughed quietly.
"Ok. Now, may I please have another bottle of blood?"
