The 'Outside' World

Chapter Twelve

Recap: “Uh no Mike. You desperately need a shower,” I grabbed his hand and pulled him up. “You can use the shower in my room as Jacks probably using his, now hurry up. You have 5 minutes to shower! I can’t wait to get up on some rides.”

I was excited to get going, I loved fairs.

Chapter 12

I hummed as I got ready; I put on make-up for the first time in a week. I put my best jeans and a long top. I was looking forward to my first fair! I was very excited.

I suddenly realised I left my hair slides that matched my top in the bathroom. I walked to the bathroom, humming my favourite song. I felt carefree. Nothing could bring my mood down.

I opened the bathroom door and walked in, I went to sink and picked up my slides and fixed my hair. I pulled my brown long hair away from my face and clipped them back.

I heard a sound behind me, of the shower curtain pulling back. I turned around and my feet slipped suddenly. My eyes shut, waiting for the impact. Waiting for the contact with the floor. My arm flailed around, trying to grab anything to steady myself.

“Rina!” a familiar voice exclaimed.

I stopped falling as an arm went around my waist and my hand grabbed hold of a naked shoulder. My hand slipped on the wet surface.

Wait. Wet and naked?

I slowly opened my eyes and raised my head. My eyes met a naked chest, well toned and tanned. I followed the water droplets up to the chest to the neck.

The dark eyes met my brown ones. So different from Jack’s. Dark eyes are so much... sexier.

What was I thinking? It was Mike I was looking at. How could I think of him as sexy?

“Are you okay Rina?” He shook me gently.

I tried to focus on what was going around me. Pulling myself out of my disturbing thoughts.

Beneath me Mike didn’t seem to be wearing much clothing, just a towel around his waist.The wetness from just-showered-his body seeped into my clothes. I straightened myself up. Or should I say tried. As Mike carried on holding me. His arm actually tightened.

My body pressed against Mike. I didn’t want to wet my clothes; it had taken me awhile to get ready. I couldn’t go through that again.

“I’m fine Mike.” I tried to detangle myself from him. But he wasn’t letting me go. The intensity in his eyes was making my insides twist. In a good way of course.

It was such a new feeling for me, I didn’t know how to react, how to act around Mike with this new feeling inside me.

I shuffled away from Mike; as gently as I could so as not to hurt his feelings. He had been through enough.

“Mike put some clothes will you,” I added humorously as I turned my back to him, trying to cool down the heated atmosphere. Gazing at him caused a tugging in my heart. His rough armour had been stripped away to show his vulnerable, sweet self. I didn’t know this Mike; I wasn’t able to hold myself in check around this Mike.

She looks hot in that dress. The thought fleeted through my mind. What the? Another one of those thoughts that weren’t mine. It sounded like Mike. But how was I doing this? How could I read somebody’s mind like that?

I wasn’t psychic.

I slowly walked out of the bathroom. Trying to keep my headache controlled so that it didn’t show that I was in pain. Mike was very observant. Pain shot through my head, my foot tripped over the ledge of the bathroom door. Once again I was stumbling and strong arms went around me to hold me.

The room spun around me.

My vision blurred.

I blacked out.

There was softness underneath me. Loud voices filtered through my conscious. My first thought was where was Mike and why was I not standing up?

The voices became clearer. Mike and jack. Fighting about something.

“What exactly do you mean! It will happen? How can it just happen? That’s not normal. How can you say its normal!”

“It would be fine, it’s just a beginning. Soon she won’t get them anymore.”

“But what about now!! When will she wake up?!”

“Guys...” My voice croaked. I cleared my throat and tried again.

“Guys I am fine, stop fighting.”

They both rushed in, each trying to get ahead of the other.

“Rina...”

“Ree...”

“You are okay.”

“You are awake.”

“Thank goodness.”

“Take a deep breath guys. Chill.” I tried to get up and sit.

Mike stopped me from the right and Jack from the left.

“Sit.”

“Don’t get up.”

Mike ran out of the room and got me a glass of water.

“Everything would be fine. Rina, this is normal in your circumstances.” Mike tried to reassure me, i wasn’t even sure why he was saying that. Did he know what was happening with me? How was this normal. And in what ‘circumstances’ was he talking about?

“Mike, care to elaborate?”

“Ermm Rina, remember when I said, you got to trust me with this. I will tell you everything when you turn 18. You have to bare with me till then.”

I recalled the conversation we had about 2 weeks ago, when he had first arrived.

Recap: “Rina they weren’t lies, they were for your protection. You have to be able to trust me for while, you need to be able to allow me to protect you. Just until your 18th birthday. You need to forget everything till then. I promise everything will become clear. Until then trust me.”

AN: I am sooo sorry for the late upload. I have just had so much going on after the last upload.
