Beautiful Connection - Chapter 6

Birds chirped outside as I opened my heavy eyes.

I got up from the floor, my ass was crashed. I grabbed some clothes and took a long shower.

When I was ready my phone chirped.

" Yeah?"

" We got a problem." Abby said.

Shit.

Don't tell me.

" What happened?" I asked

" Brett is heading to where you are."

I sighed.

" He won't find me."

A knock on my door startled me.

Don't tell me.

I opened the door slowly.

" Do you know how much I was worried asshole?"

" It seems he did." Abby chuckled from the other side of the phone.

" We still on for today." Abby said before hanging up.

I looked at Brett who looked dead pissed. I rolled my eyes and walked into the room.

" What the hell Raven?" He said closing the door behind him.

" Its early Brett, don't shout."

He sighed.

" That's the way you solve your problems ? Running away?"

" You don't know me Brett." I said getting angrier by the second.

" Did you give me the time to ? I want to get to know you but you ran away by the first fight."

" First fight ? You shouted and insulted my sorry ass life Brett , I know I have a sorry ass life ,thank you for making it clear now."

He put his hand on his face and rubbed his eyes.

" I am sorry about that , I didn't mean it like that."

" Sure you didn't."

" Do you hear yourself ? I am trying to tell you how sorry I am and you don't even give me the chance."

" I don't care about you Brett."

He shut his mouth. There , that is the only way. I can't get close.

" You think I don't know what you are doing?"

" What ?"

" You are pushing away everyone ,just because you are scared to get to know someone."

" Its not that Brett , now please leave."

" Not until you tell me."

" Tell you what ? That I am scared to get to know you just because I care enough not to put you in danger?"I shouted without thinking.

Shit.

" What ?" Brett said.

I shook my head and grabbed the bags and put everything in.

Brett grabbed my hand.

" Talk to me." He said.

His face was close again.

" No" I said.

I struggled to get loose of his grip but it was too strong.

" Talk to me Raven."

" No."

" God dammit."

He pushed me , my back hit the bed and he was on top of me.

" What is going on Raven? Please talk to me." He pleaded.

" Why?"

" Why what?"

" Why do you even care , its only been two days."

He loosed his grip. He doesn't know either.

This time he put his hand on my cheek.

" I know too much that stare to look away." He said.

His eyes looked sad.

We looked at each other , neither of us dared to break the stare.

His face lowered , he was just an inch away.

I put a hand on his lips.

" Don't get involved Brett , please."

He took my hand in his.

" I already am , the moment I saw how lonely you are."

How can he be so sure ? His eyes make me feel like a little kid.

I shook my head.

" You aren't and that's why I need you to walk away Brett, before its too late."

He grinned.

"What?"

" You said you didn't care about me ,so why are you so concerned ?"

I shut my mouth.

" You care right ? Don't tell me you don't feel something here."

He touched my cheek again, I couldn't help but shiver by his touch.

" It doesn't matter."

" Hell , it does."

" No , it doesn't Brett. Look I am tired of this please just go."

" You are coming with me , Abby is waiting for you. If you don't want anything to do with me I get it but you came here for your family right ? So don't leave her alone."

He stood and outstretched his hand to me.

I know if I take his hand , I won't be able to let go. I won't be able to leave.

" Its okay ." He smiled down to me.

Somehow even though I am scared to get him and the others involved , I can't help but grab his soft and strong hand.

" There." He pulled me to him.

His nose touched mine.

" I will be able to break your walls one day , I am not gonna leave you alone , Raven."

Tears filled my eyes.

I just broke my last rule.

" Come here." He said and pulled me into his arms.

Never has someone held me like this ,maybe that's why I feel so safe in his arms.

" You feel the connection between us right ?" Brett said.

I nodded.

" Tell me."

" Yeah , I do."

I couldn't help but admit it , there is a connection and that is why I can't let him get involved with me anymore.

More precisely with Unlucky Four.
