Open Mind

chapter seven

(Jude in the photo)

Kamaria's POV

I sat next to him in the living room, I was kind of afraid of him but at the same time he makes me feel safe, I feel much better, I stared at him as he watched the tv, I needed to know who saved me, what's his name and what happened after I fainted,

" can can I ask you something?"I said shyly,

"Yeah ask me anything!" he said his attention still directed at the tv,

"What's your name and what happened after you know.... the ummm" all the horrible imagines started coming back and I felt like crying,

" hey it's ok if your not ready to know what happened you can take your time ok, and my name is James!" he said now looking at me and smiled,

" no I want to know and I want to leave tomorrow morning!" i said with frustration,

"What... why? It's not safe for you to stay alone in this situation Kamaria, you need to stay with someone, what if something bad happens to you huh?" He started becoming agitated, ok this is interesting

" and why do you care so much? I don't trust you or anybody except my best friend and I want to leave, you cannot hold me down I don't even know you!" I said annoyingly getting up from the couch and leaving him there,

I glanced back at him, he stared at me with something in his eyes that I couldn't read but he quickly masked it and he was now angry, he stood up and walked towards me, I was about to take the first steps of the stairs when he grabbed me by my wrist and caged me by the wall that was behind me, he was so close that I could feel his body heat radiating on mine, my breath hitched and I stared at him in the eyes and he was doing the same, we stared at each other for a moment, I felt the butterflies in my stomach, I broke our stares and looked at the floor as I heard his deep, low and dangerous voice echo in the room,

"Your not going anywhere because I said so and your not safe alone, I don't care if you trust me or not but believe it or not I was the one who heard your painful screams, your cry for help, I was the one who covered you when you were lying there naked, I was the one who took you away from there and I was the one who was there when you needed air to breath so I guess you should think twice before making a decision that you'll regret later, it's your choice not mine, good night kamaria" he said storming off,

Tears began to stream down my face when he was done, ok that hurts, I was speechless and frozen because I really don't know what I was going to say to him I didn't even have the time to say anything because he left me there alone to think, I felt really bad for what I said before, he was just trying to help me and now he was really angry.

I silently went to my room and closed the door, I layed on my bed crying my self to sleep.

It has been a week now since I've been in this house with him, I feel like I'm here alone cause he never talked to me since our argument, my nightmares were back, I had a few anxiety attacks but I could control them myself, we've been going to school together we always had people stare at us with disgust or questioning looks but he still ignores me It was a really painful silent treatment.

I've never even had the chance to tell him how thankful I was for him saving my life, when I tried to talk to him he would just walk away from me and close himself in his room till the next day, and this situation was getting very stressful and ridiculous and today I was going to end it.

Today was Wednesday and I was in the livingroom waiting for him to come out of his room so I can talk to him, after a few minutes he came down all dressed up in black jeans and a white t shirt and boy he was fine af, I got up from the couch and went to him,
