Look at your shoulder...Missing something?(Draft 1)

Jun 21, 2010 19:01

     I stopped running when I hit the back wall of the alley. I bent at the waist, placed my hands on my knees and tried to catch my breath. I heard the slow pad of feet coming down the alley. My eyes widened with fear. I stood up straight. Shaken, I was frantically scanning the darkness for my pursuer. I backed cautiously towards the wall and bumped into someone. I turned sharply to see who it was, my eyes wide with fear, my arms taking a defensive position. They were caught and I looked at the person's face. It was him. His green eyes were gazing down at me and he was smirking. I was jerked rapidly towards the wall so that my back hit it with a soft thud. He grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him. I stared back at him hard; I tried to show no fear. "Cute" he said.
   "What do you want?" I said tersely
    His smirk widened a bit as he let one of my arms go; keeping a gentle grip on the other, "I'm a bit bored and I need some entertainment"
   My eyes turned into slits and I very smartly stated "Well I don't play those kinds of games so go find someone else." I made a move to leave and with his free arm he slammed the wall so that his hand was right in front of my face. I was forced to stay where I was. I looked back at him with shock that turned quickly into anger. His smile was playful but his eyes were frighteningly serious and he went on, "See you didn't let me explain. I am not interested in you body. What I am interested in is a little chaos"
    I looked back at him inquisitively, "And how can I help you with that?"
    His smirk widen a bit more to show a touch of teeth and he leaned into me, "There we go, finally listening." I squinted my eyes at him in irritation and he chuckled softly, "You see miss that's the business I'm in. I am here to corrupt innocent individuals such as yourself and create a little chaos. I am the hunter and you, my dear, are the prey."
    What was he talking about? I was curious. Who was this mystery man? I gave him a once over. He was relatively handsome. Bits and pieces of his wavy black hair fell around his face, which was angular and perfectly shaped. He was lean and about a head taller than me. He was wearing a black business suit that was messily undone. Why was he chasing me down? What did he want with me? So I asked, "What are you planning to do with me?"
    He smiled roguishly and stated, "With you I plan to kill a few birds with one stone. I need an escort. A partner, if you will, to carry on my business. And if I use you not only will my goal be accomplished but I will get a victory prize in the end."
    My eyes narrowed, "That's disgusting"
    He tipped his chin up and playfully he said, "Now how can you say that? You don't even know what my plan is."
    "Well I don't care what your plan is. I find the way you explained it to be disgusting and therefore I don't want anything to do with you or your plan"
    His face turned dark and he said plainly, "Well that doesn't matter. You're going to help me. And you want to know why?"
    "Why?"
    A smirk flashed across his face and his eyes flamed with excitement, "Because I'm going to make you want to" and then he kissed me. I tried to resist but he placed his hand on my back and between my shoulder blades and quite frankly he was a fantastic kisser. It wasn't too forceful or anything. He used just enough pressure to make sure I couldn't get away. I resisted a little bit more and then I gave in. When he realized that I gave in he broke the kiss. He leaned into me and whispered in my ear, "You know, I think I am going to give wanting your body a second thought."
    Embarrassed, I blushed deeply and when he saw my face he flashed me a wolfish smile. He stepped away from me and bowing slightly he said, "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jack Léonard." He stood up straight and holding my hand he said, "And yours my dear?" He bent over and kissed it.
    I stammered a bit, "Diana. Diana Sigeweard."
    His eyes widened a bit at my name and he inquired, "Diana Sigeweard? What an interesting name." He was quickly back smirking and he smoothly said, "Well then Miss Sigeweard, will you be my lover?"
    I sucked in some air. With a squeak I asked, "Lover? You never mentioned that. I thought I would just be your partner in crime or something."
    He pulled me towards him which caused me to have to tip my head back, "As I said, I was thinking about it and I wouldn't really mind having you along with my goal."
    I was a bit offended at that. He made it sound like I was some sort of object that he could just have. I placed my arms on his chest and tried to push away. I turned my turned my head to the side and said, "I am not some object that you can just have."
     He clutched at my chin, forcing it forward. He said slyly, "Of course not." He then let me have another fantastic kiss. I was giving in again when suddenly I realized that I just met this guy. I was letting him sexually harass me already and I just met him. I pulled away. I wiped his kiss off of my mouth. "What I am thinking!? All I know about you is your name. I don't do things like this. This is weird. You're weird. This whole THING is weird and i'm leaving." I turned on my heel and began to walk away when I realized I didn't know where I was.I heard a sigh from behind me and I felt his hand touch my shoulder. I jerked it away and turning to face him I took a defensive stance and yelled, "Who do you think you are? Don't come near me." I started to go through my handbag and I pulled out the pepper spray, "Don't come near me or you'll get a face full of mace." He was looking at me playfully, a smile forming across his mouth, "Obviously I have taken the wrong approach here."
    "Oh really? What gave you that idea?" I said very sarcastically. He just smiled at that and reached out for my hand, "Now look, I know that you don't know how to get home so let me help you. Let me make up for the way I have acted towards you by letting me give you a ride home." 
     "How thick are you? Why on earth would I want to do that?"
     He closed his eyes, bent his head down and sighed. He looked back up and smiling he explained, "Look, I am not out to hurt you. All I want is your help." He moved a little closer and softly he said, "Sorry that I wasn't able to control myself."
    I was softened a bit by his words. Man was he charismatic. I couldn't help but believe him so with a dejected sigh I agreed to have him take me home. We walked out of the alley way and we started to walk over to a really nice looking sports car. It was all black. New, shiny, clean, really expensive looking. He walked me over to the passenger side. "This is your car?"
    "Yeah" He responded with a small laugh as he opened my door. "Thank you" I replied meekly as I got in. He closed the door gently and ambled over to the driver's side. He angled himself in and soon we were off.
    "So where is 'home'"?
    I thought about that for a second and decided that I didn't want him to know where I lived. "Um actually if it's all the same to you I would rather be dropped off-" He interrupted with a laugh, "Down the block from you house right?" He turned to give me a quick flash of his smirk and continued, "I understand that you don't want me to know where you live but you have to understand that I want to make sure you get home safely."
   "It's just a block away from my house. I'll be fine." I said with obvious irritation in my voice.
    He let out a small, scary laugh and with an annoyed look on his face he said, "I am sure that you might be fine on your own but I just want to make it a certianty. Understand?" I scoffed at him and this produced another small laugh from him and he continued, "You don't think that just dropping you a block away from your house is going to hide its identity do you? Now I won't drop you off farther away and I am pretty sure you don't want me creeping behind you in my car. So will you let me walk you to your house or not?"
    Like he really gave me much of a choice. There was no way I was going to make sure that he didn't know where I lived. Quite frankly I didn't want to walk alone to my house. I live in a bad neighborhood and there is a known rapist running around. I gritted my teeth and agreed saying, "Turn left"
    "Good decision" He said, with a flash of a smile. With a punch of the accelerator I was quickly driven home. "This is it." Waving my hand towards my house. We stopped and he opened the door for me. I angled out and he offered his arm. I silently rejected it and when we reached my stoop I turned to him to say thank you before I fumbled through my purse to look for my keys.
    He was smiling wolfishly, hands in pockets, and rocking back on his heels he cooed, "What you are not going to invite me in?"
   I growled, "No! Of course I am not going to let you in" I viciously began to fish for my keys. I found them and jammed them into the lock. "Goodnight Mr. Léonard" My wrist was caught and he placed my back against the wall. His face was stoic and he slipped a piece of paper into my hand. "Don't hesitate to call." A devilish smile crossed his face and his kissed me. Before I knew it the kiss was over and he was driving down the street. 
    "Ugh" I said softly to myself. I threw myself in to the foyer throwing my keys on the small table next to the door. "Maniac!" I said in quiet frustration. In a huff i got ready for bed. As soon as I was done I walked into my room and plopped myself down onto the bed.
