Love's a Crime - Chapters 7 and 8
Sage regrets her decision a lot......
Chapter 7- Help Me
"This is horrible! Please make it stop!!" Yelled Drake pulling at his hair locks. "I'm sorry honey, will you forgive me, I will make it up to you, I promise." Said Stephen while kissing my cheek lightly. "NO! You both deserve this punishment because of what you did to me!" I said yelling at both of them. Drake groaned loudly and hit his head against the living room coffee table harshly, I smirked and turned the volume on to high on the Stereo.
Do you remember when Stephen tickled me till I was breathless? Well.... Let's say their punishment for that was.... Well.. Cruel.... I giggled as I saw both of them accusing each other for this when it was actually both of their fault. I had been making them listen to the songs, "Baby" by Justin Bieber and "Friday" by Rebecca Black, over and over again for 1 hour straight. I was getting tired of it too.
So I turned the stereo off. Both of them looked relieved when the music was cut off but then they turned to glare at me. I smiled happily and sat down on the creme colored sofa. They were still glaring at me so I sighed and turned on the TV. Next thing I knew, Stephen had pinned me down on the sofa cushions, I tried to look at Drake but he's gone from the room.
What were they planning now... I looked up to see Stephen staring at me intensely, he leaned his face in closer to mine. This scene caused me to remember when he had cornered me to the wall of the University. I blushed at the sudden memory, that reminded me that I had an important question to ask him. "Stephen.... Why did you act so cold towards me the first time we met?" I asked him quietly. He was still pinning me down but he let go quickly as soon as I said that.
He looked disturbed and his reaction really bothered me, "I acted like that.... Because... you had a strong smell of your blood... I could smell it from the forest." He said angrily. I looked at him shocked, I didn't think of it like that. I got up from the sofa and hugged him tightly. He froze but then loosened up and hugged me up. "Stephen, I need to go home and change, I also need to get ready for school tomorrow," I said untangling myself from his arms.
He nodded and ran up the stairs with vampire speed but came back swiftly with a casual outfit of mine. "Wait a minute.... You had my clothes this whole time and you still let me walk around in my pajamas!" I screamed at him. He smiled innocently and handed me my clothes. I huffed and stomped up the steps. I stopped at the top stairs and looked around. "Stephen where is the bathroom?" I asked him. "It's in the second door to your right hall..." He suddenly whispered in my ear. I screamed and dropped my clothes to the ground in surprise as he popped up behind me.
"Don't scare me like that!" I yelled angrily. "Sorry hon, I didn't mean to frighten you," he said chuckling. I narrowed my eyes at him and stalked over to the bathroom angrily.
********************************************************************************
I got out of the bathroom dressed in a red 49er T-shirt with black skinny jeans and red converse, my long brown hair was tied in a lop-sided ponytail and my plain black hoodie was wrapped around my waist. I went downstairs to look for Stephen, I found him talking to Drake quietly, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed.
He looked up and met my gaze, I smiled at him shyly and walked over to them. "I'm leaving now, I'll see you at school tomorrow ok." I said hugging him tightly, I was about to let go when he wrapped his long arms around me tightly, trapping me in his strong embrace. "Did you really think I was going to let you walk home alone after what happened last time, especially when it's really dark outside." Stephen said seriously. I shook my head and sighed against his chest. "It's ok Stephen, I'll be fine, it's only an 11 minute walk from here to my flat." I said rubbing his arm reassuringly. "No Sage. You aren't going alone at this time," he said grabbing my hand and kissing each of my fingers softly. I used my other hand to caress his face, he leaned his cheek into my hand and sighed happily.
"Stephen, I promise I will be careful, don't worry, I'm a big girl, I can take care of myself." I said smiling cheekily at him. His face hardened and his mouth tightened into a straight line. "Then if you're not willing to go with me then you're not allowed to go alone." He said harshly while crossing his arms. I looked at him angrily but sighed, "Fine you can go, but first, can you get me my pajamas? I accidentally left them in the bathroom," I asked him pleadingly. He looked at me weirdly but nodded. As soon as he had reached the top of the stairs I flew through the front door.
I ran and ran until I was only a few blocks from my house. So I decided to walk them. I unwrapped my hoodie from my waist and shrugged it on. I had only walked a few steps when I heard a deep growl, I gasped and turned around only to be faced with a man in shredded clothes. He was covered in blood from head to toe, but what I focused on was his mouth. It was dripping with blood and long fangs were stretched out of his gums. I stepped back a few steps but he hissed at me. He had curly dark brown hair and his skin was terribly pale, his legs were spread with his knees bent, both his shoulders were slumped, and his head was cocked to the side. He looked like a complete phsyco lunatic,
I made sure to stay still, but it was really hard when my hands and legs were shaking from fear. He advanced towards me, he was the fierceless predator and I was the helpless prey. I took more steps back and he snarled loudly. This is it... This will be the death of the useless Sage Rommano... Why didn't I listen to Stephen.. Why did I have to be so stubborn... He swiftly was in front of me. He grabbed me by the throat and lifted me with one hand. I struggled keeping my breathing steady but it was pointless, my air supply was thinning. I kicked him in the chest but it did no good since that earned me a bruise on my foot. He laughed maliciously and flinged me to the ground harshly.
"AAOOHH!" I screamed in pain as my ankle made contact with the rocky ground. I think I heard a crack, hopefully it wasn't broken or I'm a goner. He knelt down in front of me and watched as cold tears spilled furiously from my eyes. He smirked and grabbed my neck, tightly fastening his fingers around it. I gasped for air as he squeezed me more, I felt suffocated and my head felt light-headed. He suddenly let go of me, I looked up to see him being thrown off of me.
Stephen was standing there looking furious with a hostile look on his face. He grabbed the guy and started punching him until I heard cracking sounds. He grabbed the guy's arm and ripped it off. I stared at the scene in front of me in horror. Stephen grabbed the body parts and ran at lightning speed with them in the forest, a couple of seconds later, he came back, walking casually as if nothing ever happened. I laid there frozen, not knowing what to do or say. He knelt by me and picked me up, making sure not to put pressure on my ankle. He walked silently, carrying me without saying a word. "Stephen...." I said quietly, "hmm," he said nonchalantly. "I'm sorry," I whispered. He kept looking forward, keeping silent to himself. I messed up.... I messed up big time....

Chapter 8 - Arguments
Thank you and enjoy this chapter.....Sage gets into a big fight with Stephen....
********************************************************************************
Here I was sitting on the living room sofa with a sprained ankle, hearing Stephen yelling at me for not listening to him. My head was down, my hands were on my lap, and tears were falling from my eyes. "-don't even get me started on how you were completely stupid enough to go alone when there are dangerous things out there, waiting to attack you and kill you! Are you trying to get yourself killed Sage?!" Stephen said breathing heavily with his eyes full of anger. I flinched back and looked at down with an ashamed look on my face. He sighed and rubbed the back of his neck slowly, he walked over to where I was and kneel down while grabbing my chin between his thumb and forefinger. I looked at him and looked back down, tears were still running down my face and I wiped them away with the hem of my hoodie.
He made me look back up by tilting up my head, he wiped away a tear that was hanging on my eyelashes with his other hand. "I'm sorry for screaming at you Sage, but you need to understand that it's not safe for you to be walking alone at 1:00 at night and I especially don't want you to escape from me without permission," he said dangerously on the second statement. "So if I asked you if I could escape, I could go by myself?" I asked honestly. "Wha- No! You aren't allowed to be out of my sight! Not even in school!" He snarled at me. My eyes flared up in anger and my hands clenched into tight fists, I looked at him with a high intensity. "I'm not a child Stephen, I don't need a 24/7 nanny following me everywhere I go." I said crossing my arms while turning my head the other way with a stubborn look on my face.
His eyes widened but then they turned into snake slits, he growled deeply in his throat and it immediately turned into a loud snarl from his mouth. I looked at him in shock, he growled again but this time it sounded more menacing than angry. His eyes had turned into a dark red instead of bright. His nostrils were flaring and his lips were curled over his white pointy fangs. I gasped and stood up quickly but winced when I remember of my injury.
He came closer to me till his face was inches away from mine, I felt his ragged breath on my face while I tried to hide my neck with my chin. He tightly grabbed my face and yanked it up so my neck was exposed to him. He leaned his mouth in and touched his soft lips to my throat, I felt him open his mouth slowly as his hand grabbed the back of my head, pulling me closer to him. Then I felt it, his fang was on the base of my collarbone and was teasingly dragging itself on my skin. I shuddered and grabbed both of his shoulders with my hand, "Stephen, please.... Please.. D-Don't do this..." I pleaded to him. He chuckled darkly and positioned his fangs on my collarbone.
"Nooo!!" I screamed as he pierced my neck with his sharp teeth. I whimpered silently as I fell to the floor, the teeth marks were disappearing but some over left blood still ran down my neck swiftly. Tears were threading to come out of my eyes but I managed to keep them in, until I looked up to stare at Stephen. He was looking down at me with pleading eyes as I glanced back down at the floor. I stood up slowly with my hand on the wall for support in case, I fell because I couldn't really trust my balance right now. I had finally stood up straight, so I let my hand fall from the wall to my side. "Sage... I'm so sorry.... I couldn't control myself and I didn't mean for this to happen... I just... " he looked sad and in despair. I couldn't say anything though, even if I wanted to, I couldn't because I didn't know what to tell him.
He tried to hug me but I backed away without thinking, his face showed a hurt expression but his eyes showed a deep sorrow. I breathed in deeply through my mouth and exhaled through my nose, I approached him slowly and carefully, making sure he was controlled. I was finally in front of him, he was looking at my face trying to figure out what I was going to do. I slowly lifted up my hand and brought it to his face, he smiled gently and suddenly pulled me into his arms.
He put his mouth to my forehead and kissed it silently. The tears I had put in a huge effort to hold in, had finally gotten loose. He leaned his face near my eyes and kissed my tears away while grabbing my small hands with his, he linked his pale fingers with mine and brought them up to his face to kiss the side of my palm. How could someone so inhumanly beautiful..... be so extremely dangerous... If this creature behold me is meant to be known as a monster.... Why does it feel so right to be with him... How come I don't fear him after what he has done to me.... Is it a crush... Or is it... Love?.....
********************************************************************************
One thing I want to mention... If you don't like my story, why do you keep reading it, If you didn't like the first chapter, why bother reading the other ones if you know you hated it.. Don't waste my time please... I love all of you who took your time to vote for me to continue.
