Previously...
''I don't despise the world, Shiori. I despise the corruption of the system.'' ''And I saved you because I still have faith in humanity, and your life was not to be wasted''
''W-what do you mean?'' I asked confused.
''You don't deserve to die'' He replied, and I cursed myself when I got lost in his deep and persuasive eyes.
Inferno
Chapter 7
Shiori felt trapped. After the little conversation she had she decided to shelter in herself, as she sat on the furthest chair she found, away from him. She sat there and hugged her knees as she looked at him from afar. Occasionally she looked out the window.
That man was strange and she knew he was not to be trust, but for some reason she wanted to. When she realized such thoughts were on her mind she shook her head trying to get them away. She gazed at him again, observing him. He was sitting on a chair reading a book peacefully, in silence. His expression was calm and serene, but Shiori knew that it was just a façade, there was much more under that mask. She could feel it. There was nothing simple about him.
Then he turned his head in her direction, feeling observed, and found himself staring back at Shiori's eyes. She held that connection for a few seconds, but finally turned her look away. Makishima laughed softly.
''You are an interesting one'' He said to himself. Shiori was going to say something but bit her lip and stayed silent. She was really confused and didn't know what to do next. That man made his point clear, he wouldn't let her go. What would she do then? Stay here or what? It made no sense.
''I'm not going to hurt you, Shiori-chan'' Said suddenly Makishima, reading her mind. Shiori raised her head surprised and a little annoyed that she was so easy to read.
''Then let me go home'' She tried her luck.
''I can't do that'' He replied smiling. ''You know it'' He added. She just glared at him.
''I won't tell''
''And how do I know that?'' He asked smiling. ''Why should I trust you?''
Why should I trust you?
''Why could you possibly want from me?'' She muttered more to herself than to him. He smiled when he heard that.
''I didn't picture you to be like this, the first time I saw you'' He commented leaving the book aside. Shiori kept quiet, but the memory came to her mind. The first time they met was in that forbidden library, he was a teacher and she was a mere student. Nothing more, nothin less. How could she have known the real identity of that man?
''Then I guess we are even'' Shiori said.
His smile widen, as she felt a shiver ran through her body when their eyes met again. There was something animalistic in them, something that attracted but made her want to scream and ran away, a really magnetic gaze.
''You really are interesting''
''You keep saying that'' She pushed her luck a bit further saying that in a pretty defiant tone. His golden eyes shone amused. He let the book on the table, holding the page he was reading before being interrupted. Shiori kept looking around, and now focus on trying to learn the structure of that house, trying to figure out if there was any way out. A path she could use.
But something distracted her; she saw something white moving from the corner of her eye. She turned quickly and saw that Makishima had disappeared from his spot. Nervously she looked around trying to find him.
She then felt a presence behind her, and turned around so fast that lost her balance. She was going to fell to the ground, but she never touched it. She felt her head and back against a soft and warm chest. She opened her eyes and immediately pushed him away. She faced him, there he was. playing tricks on her once again.
Makishima was standing a few meters from her with that smile on his face, his face looked even more innocent under the sunlight. Nothing evil.
''Since you woke up you have been keeping the distance between us, something normal to do with the man you just discovered that could be a potential criminal'' He said, and took a step closer. She took a step backwards. ''And I wonder'' It was then when her back met the wall. ''Do I frighten you that much?''
He reached her, and came even closer. She opened her palms and felt the cold wall. She couldn't fight back or run, she tried that before and he was stronger and faster than her. That's why she just looked away and waited it to all go away. But then she felt a hand on her chin and her face being lifted softly.
''Or is it something else?'' He spoke with that Cheshire smile.
Something else…?
She was curious about him, but that was completely blocked by the hatred towards his actions. She gathered all the courage left in her.
''There's no way…there could be something else'' She said with determination and a harsh tone. ''But hatred towards what you do''
He suddenly dropped his smile but didn't let go of her. He kept staring into her eyes, trying to reach further, deeper.
As he had given up he let go of her and turned around, giving his back to her. She stayed on place, waiting for an answer, a reply or something… He just walked towards the white table and grabbed his book. He closed it and then walked away. He headed towards a door, and disappeared behind it, leaving Shiori alone, confused and with her heart beating faster in her chest.
She took a deep breath before recovering the composure and walking towards the chair she was sitting a while ago. She placed a hand on it as she gazed at the door from which he had disappeared.
It didn't make sense at all.
So how was it? I hope you have enjoyed the chapter!
In the next chapter, I'll probably focus on their relation and what feelings they have towards each other (Not love yet, sorry hahaha).
Please leave a review, It really helps me a lot, and knowing what you think about the story makes me happy and helps me improve! Feel free to share your opinion via review or PM!
I'll try to update soon!
See you soon!
