Chapter 2
Hey guys! Thank you to Leyshla Gisel and Nicole1408 for reviewing they really mean a lot! Therefore, here is chapter 2 for you all, I hope you enjoy!
Olivia finds herself looking over her shoulder at the strange man, she notices he has a backpack slung over his shoulder and she smiles, at least he had some type of belongings with him. However, she also noticed it wasn't wet like his clothes or hair and that confused her. She just shrugs and continues walking towards her prison.
When they finally reach the bricks and cement, Olivia turns to the young man and smiles.
''We have an outhouse that has a bathroom, bed and everything.'' She says quietly.
The young man just stares at her. ''That would be great thank you.'' He says.
Olivia smiles. ''Okay follow me.'' She says as she begins to walk in the direction of the outhouse.
When there she peaks her head inside cautiously making sure her father or mother hasn't ventured inside.
''Okay no one is around.'' She says opening the door. ''Please make yourself at home.'' She says with a smile.
The young man lets a small smile spread around his face. ''Thank you, I really appreciate it.'' He says shuffling past her to sit on the bed gripping onto his bag tightly.
Olivia smiles. ''Would you like some food? I could also bring you some clothes if you like.'' She says.
The young man ducks his head. ''That would be great thank you.'' He says.
''All right I'll be back in a moment with everything.'' She says as she begins to walk towards the door.
When she is about to open the door the young man speaks up. ''You here alone then?'' He asks.
Olivia sighs. ''No I'm here with my parents.'' She breathes.
''Won't they mind you bringing me stuff and helping me out?'' He asks.
Olivia can't help but laugh, if only he knew. ''No they won't mind, I'll be back soon.'' She says leaving before he can say anything else.
The young man begins to take in his surroundings, shocked by the young girl's gratitude, no one had ever offered him help before, and he was enjoying it. The girl seemed like a lost soul that needed to be found again. He felt like he could happily do that, she was very pretty and he knew he wouldn't mind her company whilst she helped him out.
Olivia walked into her house; her parents were sat in the living room by the fire, unaware that their daughter had reentered the house. Olivia sighed and went through the cupboards trying to find something that the young man could eat without her parents hearing what she was doing. She went into the fridge to find her unfinished meal in their. She glared at the plate before grabbing it and placing it in the microwave, if she wasn't going to eat it the young man could.
''Olivia?'' She heard her mother's voice question.
''Yes?'' Olivia questioned back clenching her fists as she felt butterflies beginning to build in her stomach.
Her mother then looked over her seat and looked her daughter up and down. ''Nothing dear, I just heard the door and wondered if it was you.'' She says with a patronizing smile.
Olivia smiles the same back before her mother turns her head and Olivia rolls her eyes. When she was younger her mother was never like this with her, once upon a time she was actually concerned when her daughter disappeared out the house for a certain amount of time. The microwave beeping brings Olivia out of her thought process. She pulls the plate quickly out of the microwave and grabs a knife and fork. She places them all on the side before slipping upstairs into her parent's room and grabbing one of her father's shirts and a pair of his jeans. Hoping they will fit the young man.
When she returns into the kitchen, she feels the plate and sees that it is still warm. She smiles to herself and she cautiously opens the kitchen door making sure not to drop any of the items she is carrying. She walks quickly up to the outhouse, upon opening the door, she finds the place to be empty, she frowns, but then she hears the mistakable noise of a shower running. She smiles and places the clothes on the bed and the food on a small table.
'' I've brought you some clothes and food.'' She shouts.
She hears shuffling in the bathroom before the shower shuts off, the young man then emerges from the bathroom in a bathrobe. He smiles and looks at the plate of food and clothes.
''Thank you.'' He breathes.
Olivia smiles brightly. ''Your welcome. Have a good night.'' She says as she proceeds to the door again.
''Wait are you not going to stay?'' He asks.
Olivia shakes her head. ''No you've had a rough day, I'll give you your privacy.'' She says.
The young man nods his head in understanding. ''All right. I'll see you in the morning?'' He asks.
She smiles. ''Yes I will lock the door behind you to make sure my parents don't know your here. There is a ferry leaving the island that's just a short boat ride away, I'd be happy to take you there.'' She says.
The young man eyes her suspiciously. ''You know how to drive a boat?'' He asks.
She nods. ''Yes my father taught me. Have a good night.'' She says before leaving the outhouse, locking the door quickly behind her and running into the house.
She see's her parents are still up so places herself by the fire to get warm, she brings her knees up to her chest waiting to see if they notice she is their and talk to her.
She waits for five minutes before she hears her father cough. Olivia turns to him and is met by his menacing stare.
''Yes dad?'' She questions.
He glares at her. ''You're blocking the heat, move out the way Olivia.'' He growls.
Olivia shrinks into herself even more before moving across closer to her mother. Who just stares at her blankly, Olivia offers her a small smile but gets nothing back. She grumbles and stands herself up.
''Where are you going dear?'' Her mother asks.
''To bed goodnight mum and dad.'' She mumbles getting no response as she heads for the stairs.
As she climbs the steps, she shakes the awkwardness off her before walking into her bedroom and settling into bed after a change into her bedclothes. She lies awake for a few moments before images of the young man begin to flash into her mind. These cause her to relax and she falls into a soft sleep.
