Korah

My whole body eventually shut down the entire day. I couldn't fake the fact that I am happy when I'm not.
I tried explaining to Tatiana who is still astonished that I am like this because of Trevor,the guy I said I wouldn't want to have anything with. I'm also surprised myself that I'm this way but I have no control on the way I feel currently.

The only person I think can understand me right now is Evan.
"Why exactly are you this worried about Trevor?". Dawn who has been gazing at me,asked.

I sigh,adjusting the hem of my skirt. "Uh...I kind of said something I shouldn't have".

"Oh...". Dawn bit her power lip,hesitating.
"Do you think he would want to see me right now?". I ask,desperate for an answer.

She shake her head slowly,meaning a no.
"He kind of has this.. Habit of been alone. Talk more of when he's mad at you".

We walked to our lockers to get our textbooks for the next class.
"Have you thought of going to maybe..visit?".

Quite surprising to hear Dawn talk this way.

I took a deep breath. "No. Actually,I thought of telling Evan before going".
Dawn open her locker after inserting the password. "You may be wondering why I'm always clingy around Trevor".
I pause,Turing to hear her reason.

She slam her locker and rested on the wall. "He has a good heart".
A small smile form on my face as I gently close my locker,holding two books to my chest.

"Just forget how he acts outside. He once told me about a friend he lost a while back. I kind of guess..that's why he's like this".
I arch my brows in attentiveness. "A friend?".

Dawn nods quickly. "He only time I see him smile and laugh is when he's with his brother,Evan. Don't believe the bad you hear about him because he's not. He is sweet on the inside".

I blink my eyes in pure bliss. Dawn Is telling me the opposite of my thoughts.

"Thanks Dawn". I lean in to cuddle her.

"Bitch please,I'm no lesbian!". She snap,giggling.
I withdrew,laughing at her facial expression.
"Let's go to class". I said,tucking my hand in hers.

"Yeah...this is better.." Dawn chuckle,holding mine.

I take back my bad words about her.

Trevor wasn't in class throughout today. There are bunch of reasons why he doesn't want to but I am more than enough reason.
Mrs Rodanim called our class score today. I still represent my first place but Trevor dropped to fifth.

A lot of whispering occurred as to why he has been slacking off these days.
I remained quiet. I don't understand everything but what I know is enough to.. slack off.

I waited after everyone's departure from school but didn't see Trevor.
"Evan". I called Evan who is going out of school in his car,as i run towards him.
The car stopped sharply.

"Korah...thought you've left". He opened the door to come down.
I pant heavily, my heartbeat increased as I try to catch my breath.
"No..I.. I was waiting for Trevor. Where's he?"

Evan looked at me with pity. "You look tired".
I search his face with sympathy written all over my face.

"He already left". Evan poured out.
I gulp,nodding my head and turning to leave.
Evan stood,watching me as his hair flips to his face.

"Korah". I heard him call,still not moving from where he stood.
I turn back slowly.
"Come over later, I'll talk to him". Evan said,almost shouting so I would hear.

I smile weakly,nodding again. My hair accepting the wave of the breeze as it softly covers and uncover my face.

I strolled to the bus stop,noticing how the flowers by the walkway I pass everyday,turns out to suddenly look beautiful.

My mind reminisce on what Dawn told me about Trevor. I sigh softly.

Taking deep breaths, I knocked on the huge gate which opened automatically. I guess whoever is operating It,knows I'm coming in.
I look back as the gate gradually close without been touched.

My eyes drift up to the balcony at the left. A man around his late fifties, stare down at me. I can't tell who exactly he is but his stature sure looks familiar.

I cleared my throat,blinking my eyes and instantly looking away.
I open the door leading straight to Evan's room.
Looking around, I walked slowly up the stairs as my shoes still manage to make sounds.

I only changed my clothes to a gown jean suspenders and a pair of white boob tube. My curly hair bouncing it's way backwards.

I heard footsteps following me which made me nervous.

Could it that man who was staring at me?

My mind ran wide as my feet fasten in steps. I glance over the doors facing each other. The right one is definitely Trevors' so the other would be Evans'.

I opened the door as I look back. The footsteps drew near as I slowly locked the door behind me.

I exhale slowly,Turing around to see nothing but a dim blue light glowing from the ceiling.
My heart skipped a beat as I hear the footsteps coming towards the room.

Apprehensively glancing around to quickly hide,I sighted the big bed and jumped on it,covering myself with the big deep blue duvet.

I shut my eyes, my heart beating faster than usual with my hands squeezed above my head.

I slowly open my eyes to a familiar scent pecking my nose as I drop my hands from my head.
My eyes widened like that of a comic character as I saw Trevor lying down close to me,shirtless.
I opened my mouth to scream at my surprised but he closed my mouth with his right hand,staring at me salaciously.

The footsteps stopped as the person knocks continually.

In a flash,Trevor hovers over me. Practically him been on top of me as he supports himself by resting his lower hand above my head.
I couldn't feel my body at this point,my breathing seize as I froze,stuck in the moment.

"Moan". Trevor's whispers,his sturdy chest now in view,only ornamented by his silver necklace.
'What?'. I open my mouth to mutter.
"Just do It". He said,pressing his lips together and looking at me.

I moan with my eyes closed. I am way embarrassed to look at Trevor right now.

Evan busted into the room. "Oh..shit, Learn to close the door Trevor". He hurried out before getting closer,locking the door behind him,having no idea I am the one under his brother.

I stopped,my eyes still shut as I feel Trevor's necklace dangling on my neck.

"Open your eyes". He whispers.
I opened my eyes to meet his gaze. He giggles softly.
I can't believe I'm under a duvet with Trevor. If this is a dream,I better wake up before it escalates.

Been this close with Trevor makes me realized how stunning he is. His deep brown eyes piercing into mine and his pink lips shining in the dim light.

What a masterpiece...

I blink my eyes and lower my gaze instantly. I could feel him coming closer as his chest touched mine.
I close my eyes again to his closeness and I hear him whisper. "Breath". The word sent an electronic signal through me as I felt his lips on my ears and his warm breath settling on my skin.

Trevor look back at me before going off the bed. I could feel myself breathing again as I slowly came down,pulling the duvet off my legs.

"I..umm..I..came to". I started, running my hands through my hair.
He seats on the bed,resting his elbow on his knee.
"I came..to".
"Apologise?". He asks,helping me complete my words.

I nod slowly in agreement, looking at the bed and avoiding his stare.

If I still want to feel my legs.

Trevor took a deep breath and blew out his cheeks.
"Korah".
I tilt my head to look at him,folding my hands to my chest.
"Why did you call me a coward?". He asks In a low voice as he drops his head,his curly black hair in view.

I gulp hard,not moving. "I..um..I am sorry. It slipped out,I didn't mean to-"
"You just don't say anything that comes to your mind,Korah". Trevor interrupts, getting on his feet.
I finally saw that he's putting on an ash track. His height high above me.
"I know..but I'm truly sorry". My eyes showing apology as it suddenly becomes teary.

"I just want you to know that so you won't put yourself in danger,just by your words". He gently tucks his hands in his pocket. Abs popping out in showoff. "And I meant what I said Korah, stay away from me..and my business".

Trevor's last words made my heart ache for a reason I don't know. I stare straight into his eyes and he looked away.

I nod,tucking my hair to my ear as I turn to leave.
My curiously caught me to turn back. "But why?".
He just stare at me without saying a word.

"Okay then". I said since Trevor refuses to speak.

"For your safety". I heard him say the second my hand touched the door's handle.
I tried to process what he said but nothing related to what I saw and what he said.

"I'll distract Evan so you can go out". Trevor opened the door,and went out. My eyes spotting his tattoo once again..

For my safety?..
