Chapter 3
We began walking with her clinging to my arm. I can understand that she was scared she was scared because of the night's events but I never imagined her clinging to me like a small child.
"So… why are you out here so late?" she asked.
"I enjoy the night. It's quiet. And the moonlight is gorgeous in the right environment."
"I really don't think this is the right environment."
"Oh, I don't know about that. Why areyou out so late?"
She was quiet. "Just... getting away from someone."
"I see."
We were silent for a few moments.
"By the way… I never got your name…"
I chuckled. "I didn't get yours either."
"…Emily. My name is Emily."
I gave her a small smile. "My name is Damien."
She smiled right back at me. I never thought I would see such a pretty sight again.
"Isn't that the name of the devil's son?"
I smirked. "That movie has certainly made my name make people think that."
She laughed.
We crossed the street and stopped.
"Well, my house is just a few more down. Thank you for walking with me… and saving my life."
"It was nothing. Just be careful when you're out this late."
She nodded. "Will I ever see you again?"
"… I doubt it…"
She looked down to the sidewalk. "Oh…" was all she said.
I gently took her hand and raised it to my lips.
"Goodnight… Emily."
She blushed. "Goodnight Damien."
I let go of her hand and began walking away.
Sadly, I couldn't resist looking back for a moment. She was slowly making her way into her home when she also looked back.
Her eyes met mine and I was locked.
No...Let it go...
I quickly shook my head and disappeared into the night.
….
I sat in my room listening to music while many thoughts raced thru my head. I began wondering where the girl went to school, who her friends were.
Perhaps she has a lover…
I knock at the door drew him away from his thoughts.
"Master?"
The door opened.
"Yes Henry."
"I brought you dinner."
"Just set it on the table. I'll eat in a moment."
He placed the tray down and began to walk away.
"Henry."
He stopped. "Master."
"Begin the paperwork. I'm going back to school."
