~Chapter 17~
*Recap*
*Naomi Knight's POV*
I woke up in a rush and my head started to spin. I think next time I wake up I should wake up a little slower. Voices clouded inside my head. Matthew. He was screaming inside my head, I couldn't make out what he was screaming but it sounded like he was lost or in trouble or something. I didn't know if I dreamed of it but it felt real.
I needed to find Matthew to declare my suspicions. I needed to know if it was real. I needed to know if he was safe. I turned to my side that faced Dimitri. Dimitri laid there awake which scared me so bad that I literally jumped and fell off the bed and on my back. I sat up on the floor and looked at him, he laid there laughing and I gave him a stern look and he stopped laughing immediately.
"What?" Dimitri asked as innocent as he possibly could.
"Don't what me, mister!" I said as I huffed and went to stand up but he rolled off the bed and pulled me down gently with his hand. His other hand landed on the floor and he caught himself before he crushed me.
Dimitri leaned down to give me a kiss on the cheek and I happily accepted his sign of affection. I put my hand around his waist and rolled over until I laid on him. I gave him a goofy smile and giggled. He rolled back over and he was back on top of me, he supported his weight with his arms. Soon after he got up and walked into the kitchen and started to make pancakes. I loved pancakes, they were my absolute favorite.
Usually, Dimitri only made me my favorite food when he had good news or bad news or if I asked him to but today I didn't ask him to.
I wonder what he had to tell me...
*Present*
*Dimitri's POV*
"Naomi. I have to tell you something, and I'm not entirely sure on how your gonna take it" I said as I looked at her.
I never knew how she was going to act when I tell her any kind of news. The first time I gave her news was when Micheal and David disappeared for 4 years. She didn't exactly take it that well, she went on a rampage and killed people in anger, killed people in frustration, killed people in sadness and confusion. She was lost. She didn't trust me at the time and she said she couldn't trust anyone anymore, she was afraid that anyone she befriended or any family she had would just leave her like they did.
I still often wondered if she still dated that guy that she met on the street. I wondered if she would ever go back to her old ways, back to not caring about anything and back to killing people. I also wondered if I had the guts to hurt her, to leave her just as Micheal and David did. Sure I loved her more than she ever imagined. Sure I think that I couldn't possibly hurt a single hair on her beautiful head. The thought of hurting her brings me daymares and also nightmares.
"I knew it," Naomi said. "So what do you need to talk to me about?"
"They found you," I said.
"The bad men that killed my family?" Naomi asked.
"Yes," I said as I bit my lip.
"How do we stop them?" Naomi asked.
"I don't know but you seem...calm about all this," I said.
Something was up. I knew it. She couldn't possibly be hiding something from me, was she? Maybe she wasn't worried because her other 'boyfriend' would protect her from these bad men. But I still didn't know if she kept in contact with him. As much as I hate that she had a whole other boyfriend, I'm also glad for it. He had a lair underground well at least his boss did. I followed them one night and I couldn't believe my eyes, he was a complete gentleman. Even though he is a complete gentleman, I needed to know if I can trust him. I needed know if he was going to keep her safe and all that kind of stuff.
I needed to see him. I needed to know what he was like. I needed to know if he would keep my girl safe from all harm...
