Chapters 16
Birds were chirping as they flew across houses looking for food. The sun shone on the houses. It also shone on our favourite person, Patrick.
The sum shone on his windows directly to his face and he felt it. He stir and he turned and then no longer felt the sun on his face and he went back to sleep.
The other person Lying close to him, was woken up by the sun light on her face. She opened her eyes and she was met by the sun light and she use her palm to block the sun from her face. She turned her attention from her palms to looked at her surrounding. "Has my room always look like this?" She said to herself but she quickly realized that she ran away from there "Where am i?" She mentally asked. She heard snoring and she turn to the sound of it and her eyes widen she saw the persons face. The person was beautiful. With its black hair framing his well sculptured face. It had eyelashes like that of a girl and closing his eyes made it look more beautiful. Its lips were pink and firm. She had been staring and memorized by its good looks that she didn't even know when it opened it's eyes and stared at her. It wave it's hand in font of her eyes, snapping her from her from her trance 'Hi" it said to her making her realize that it was awake and she saw its face. It was a boy. A handsome and pretty looking boy. She looked at his eyes and got lost in them. His eyes looked like an endless black sea. It was truly beautiful "Pretty eyes" she whispered to herself "Hey" the boy said again and waved his hands in her front and she blinked thrice and looked at the boy "Who are you?" She asked "You don't remember me?" the boy said to her and she raised her eyebrow "Oh right. You don't recognize me because your eyes were tied" "At least you remember my voice right?" Claire looked at the boy and shook her head 'no' "Really? You don't remember the person who always come to your cell every morning and night to give you breakfast and supper?" he asked "Patrick?" She whispered but Patrick heard her and he nodded "Yeah that's me"
"I didn't expect him to be this pretty" Claire thought while looking at him with a surprised face "What's with the look?" Patrick answered and her eyes widen and she looked down while two dust of pink adorn her cheeks. "You don't have to be shy. I'm your friend remember?" Patrick said making Claire to look up to him with widen eyes and then it soften due to sadness and Patrick noticed it "What's wrong? Am I making you feel uncomfortable?"
"No" Claire answered honestly and he blushed "You know, this is the first time you talked to me and your voice sounds better than before" he said while playing with his fingers and Claire looked at him with a raised eyebrow "What's up with him?" It was as if Patrick had heard her because he said "I'm freaking you out, aren't I? Sorry" he said. Claire didn't bother to answer him, she just averted her eyes from him and looked round the room. Again. "We're in my room" Patrick said and got the attention of Claire "What?" Claire asked "You're in my room at my house" Patrick stated again as he stood up from the bed and stretched his body and he sigh with content after he was done. Claire looked at him and noticed he was quite tall. Maybe a 5'6. "How did I get here?" Claire asked "I carried you here. You fell asleep in my arms" Patrick stated and Claire remembered all that happened the night before today. The thing she solely remembered was his heart beat *Bam dum Bam dum* "If its him then his heat beat would be the same" Claire said as she crawled out from the bed, stood on her foot. Patrick looked at her with a raised eyebrow "What are you... " he was caught off when he felt Claire body on his "w.. what" he stuttered as he looked down to Claire. Claire pressed her ears closer to his chest wanting to hear his heart beat at all cost and when she finally did, she felt relieved *Bam dum Bam dum Bam dum Bam dum* she heard it and she pressed her body even closer to his.
"Em Claire?" Patrick called out to Claire and she looked up to him, seeing as she was 4'10 of his height, with her eyes showing relief "What you doing?" Patrick asked and Claire moved away from him "I'm checking if it were you" she stated and sat on the bed "If it were me that did what?" Patrick asked and Claire shrug looking at him with an expressionless face making Patrick to sweat drop and his lip twitch "When did she become like this" he mentally asked himself.
Patrick sighed and sat down on his bed looking and brought his phone from his draw and switched it on. He unlocked his phone and saw six voice messages from his best friend. Three from Bella and the other three from Issac. He played the ones of Bella first
First message from Bella:
Hey Patrick, I've been calling you to know if you had reach your house but you didn't pick. So i decided to send this to you. If you have got this then call me back. And I'm home already.
And with that the massage stop and Patrick chuckled and played the second one, unaware of the eyes looking at him.
Second message from Bella
Hey Patrick,why aren't you picking my call. I've called you like 13 times and you still don't wanna pick up!! Hope you're alright!!
Third message from Bella
Patrick Please pick up!! Are you okay!!
Patrick chuckled at his best girlfriend antics "Girl worry too much" Patrick said and laughed a little "Who's that" Claire asked and Patrick jumped like a cat who was about to be dipped in water "Hey don't do that" Patrick said gripping his chest with anime tears falling from his eyes "Do what?" Claire asked "Nothing. Never mind" Patrick said with anime tears falling from his eyes as he picked up his phone and sat on the bed "So who was that? The girl you told me about?" Claire asked looking at Patrick "Oh that's Bella. My best friend. She seemed a little bit worried. She has been calling me but I didn't pick it up" "Why" Claire asked "Well the reason was I didn't know. I was so angry that you were lost that I couldn't concentrate on anything" Patrick said looking at Claire "What do you mean?" Claire asked "When Samuel told me you were missing. I felt bad because I should have been there to stop you and I thought about all what you'll be going through with your eyed opened" as Patrick was saying those things, Claire was thinking "Why is he so worried about me? He doesn't even know me?" "Why do you care so much?" Claire caught Patrick off and Patrick looked at her and said "Huh?" "Why do you care so much? You know nothing about me" Claire stated looking into his eyes. After a while Patrick answered.
"It's because your my friend and I feel a deep connection with you" Patrick said and Claire saw the look in his eyes. She saw seriousness. And she didn't know what to say and she just lay down on the bed and faced away from him and close her eyes. "Hey, are you hungry?" Patrick asked as he stood up from the bed and looked at Claire but she didn't reply "I know you're hungry so I'm just gonna go downstairs and bring us some food" Patrick said walking to his door "Don't leave me" Claire said sitting upright "Huh?" Patrick said turning to look at Claire "Don't leave. I don't want to be alone in here. If you leave he'll come back" Claire said as her body shake in fear and she looked left and right as if she was expecting someone to jump her. She felt a gentle hand on her shoulder and she looked at the hand to the persons face and saw him, Patrick "I won't leave you. I'm right here" Patrick said and Claire hugged him "He's body feels like big brother. So warm" she thought "Okay Claire since you want me to not leave you, how about you come with me downstairs to get our food" Patrick suggested standing up as he was on his knees before "But you'll need a blindfold" Patrick said "Why? Aren't you the only one staying here?" Claire asked softly and Patrick scratched the bridge of his nose "Well no. I stay with my parents and I don't want you to be scared and run off again" Patrick said. Claire reasoned what he just and realize that he was right. If she saw his family, she might think it was that man and try to run away or worse, if she saw a knife she might use on one of them. So protecting his family and her. But she keeps wondering how on earth does she not see the Patrick like that. "Here" she heard a voice say to her, snapping her from her thought and she looked up to Patrick and saw him giving her a blind fold.
Taking it, she used it to tie her eyes and once again she saw darkness and was scared "Hey" she heard Patrick voice and she looked in the direction of the voice "I'm here, okay" Patrick said to her "How did he know I was.. Never mind" Claire as she stood up from the bed and Patrick wrapped his arms around her shoulder "Let's go" he said and they slowly made their way towards the door.
Patrick passes his big brother room, parents room and little sister room and walked downstairs "My family are still asleep" Patrick said as they walked the stairs slowly and Claire looked at him and he guess the question on her mind "Don't worry, the maids would be preparing the food now. And yes, we have maids and a butler" Patrick said as they took the last step and Patrick led Claire to the kitchen and as they walked the maids greeted him looking at Claire "Good morning young master" Claire heard them greet him and Patrick would reply them with a 'morning'.
Stepping into the kitchen, Patrick saw that the food was almost ready and Albert approached him "Good morning young master" "Morning Albert" "Young master may I ask who is this and why is her eyes ties?" Albert asked and Claire could feel the man eyes on her and she pushed her body against Patrick "She's a friend. And the reason her eyes are tied is because, we're playing a game and don't ask me what game, okay Albert?" Albert bowed and said "Alright young master" "Good" Patrick said patting Albert shoulder "Young master, what may we serve you?" Albert asked "Serve the amount of dish you know I eat. And make it two dishes of everything. For me and my friend" Patrick said looking at Claire "Alright and to your room?" "Yes. And be fast about it, we're quite hungry" Patrick said "At once" Albert said and bow down as Patrick exited the Kitchen.
Patrick lead Claire upstairs, passed his family rooms and enter in his room. "You can take it off now" Patrick said as he backed the door. Claire removed the blindfold and she blinked her eyes and she adjusted to the light in the room again "So while we wait for food. I'm gonna take a bath" Patrick said as he locked his door "Why are you locking it?" Claire asked "Well I don't want the maids to come in and scare you away" Patrick said as he walked to his towel rake "Oh" Claire said "So if they knock, don't open the door" Patrick said and when Claire nodded he step into his bathroom closed the door.
Claire looked round the room again and notices for the first time that it was beautiful. The walls were painted white. The rug on the floor red. He had a huge TV and a DVD was on the floor connected to the TV and both the TV and the DVD was connected to the switch by plugs. She looked to her right and saw a huge wardrobe colour brown. She looked to the corner of the corner of the wardrobe and saw a small drawer. With two pictures on top of it. Standing up, she walked to the drawer and picked up the picture. She looked at the picture and saw Patrick grinning to the camera while wearing a graduation gown and she smiled because he looked handsome. Dropping the first one, she picked the second one and she almost laughed. The picture was of a little boy (Patrick) running in his nude while sticking his tongue out to the camera. She dropped it and picked up the last and her eyes widen. The picture was Michael wearing a black trouser and a black top with a red and black long sleeved wrapped around his waist. He had his hair tied in a pony tail and he looked hot and Claire blushed madly. Like her whole face was red and she dropped the picture and went to sit down on the bed wither cheeks dusted with pink as she played with her fingers shyly and her toes touch each other.
She calmed down later and then she heard the bathroom door opened and she looked at the direction with cute eyes and her eyes then widen as her face turns red. Before her was Patrick with a towel wrapped around his waist with his pale and well divine chest exposed and he didn't seem to notice that she was staring at him because he was drying his hair with the other towel and when he did turn to look at her, he found out that she was looking at him with her eyes widen and her face red and she immediately turned and looked at her feet and played with her fingers "Huh?" Patrick thought confused as he walked towards Claire and stood in front of her making Claire looked at his feet to his face and he saw that her face was red "Are you okay?" Patrick asked putting his hand on her forehead "You're a little bit hot" "I'm fine" Claire stuttered moving his hand from her forehead "Okay" Patrick said as he walked to his wardrobe unaware of the eyes following him. He opened it and picked out a black singlet and red trouser. "Do you want to take a bath?" Patrick asked looking at Claire through his shoulders "I'm not sure I can. Remember what happen last time" Claire said looking at the floor "Hey, I'm right here" Patrick said walking to her and knelt in front of her and raised her chin up so that she can look at his eyes "You don't have to worry. I'm right here. If anything happens, you come out and I'll help you, okay?" Claire nodded and blush as she looked down "Great" Patrick clapped his hands and took a towel from his drawer and handed it to Claire, who nodded and looked at Patrick eyes and walked to the bathroom, opened it and stepped in.
Claire walked into the bathroom and backed the door. She looked round the bathroom and saw that it was very beautiful. The walls were painted sea blue and the tiles were white. She looked to her right and saw a mirror and her eyes widen when she looked into the eyes of 'THAT MAN' her heart beat increased until she heard Patrick voice from outside "Hey Claire are you alright?" she turned to look at the door and her heart beat slow down and she walked towards the door and placed her hand on the door and rest her ear on the door and Patrick knocked the direction of where her hand is "Are you okay?" Patrick asked and Claire sighed in content hearing his voice "I'm fine" she stuttered "Oh okay. But if you need anything I'm right here" Patrick sighed and step from the bathroom door and he turned and walked to his desk. "Yeah" Claire nodded as she walked deeper into the bathroom and faced the mirror. She first saw the man but then she closed her eyes and she saw Patrick smiling at her and she opened them to see her reflection looking at her with widen eyes.
