Chapter 13 - Infiltration
“I don’t like the thought of you giving guys rides home,” Crimson pursed his lips. “Especially that Lee kid, he seems like trouble,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKm5su752O
“Oh and you’re not,” I raised an eyebrow. “And his name’s Lux,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡurIf7XCImz
“See you even know his name!” He exclaimed. “Why do you have it memorized?”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRDwO2qPfG
“You sound like that crazy wife from the Statefarm commercial!” I laughed as I rested my legs on his lap.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1F1V8pfWeP
“What are you wearing under your pajamas? Alex from Statefarm,” Crimson smirked flirtatiously at me.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptFopDUImC
“None of your business you perv!” I smacked him with one of my throw pillows. “I thought you were here to get homework done, not unleash your perverted nature!”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFruiQ6Cag
“Why do I have to do homework and you don’t,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4diLsnf2g
“I actually do have homework,” I scratched my head. “But I choose not to do it, I mean, it’s not like they can give me detention for it,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyr5zrYkrJM
“Yeah, but what if you actually do get detention one of this days,” He raised an eyebrow at me. “Or even worse, what if you get detention with Lionel!”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSPyBTHQ70
“It’s Lux,” I rolled my eyes in annoyance. “And why do you keep on bringing him up? Are you jealous Crimson Cross?” I smirked.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt3AZCDbijY
He sighed and rubbed his hands through his hair. “Yes, I am,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6nY7sysrj
I was a bit taken back; I hadn’t expected him to actually admit it. “O-Oh!” I stuttered. “I mean, he’s just a kid, you don’t have to be jealous about anything-”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuroeDLELRI
“I DON’T CARE ALEX, ANYTHING COULD’VE HAPPENED TO YOU!” He suddenly boomed, making me recoil back in fright. What the hell? I didn’t even say anything wrong!918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9JshgNJC2
After seeing my shocked face, his face softened and he ran a hand over his face. “Baby, I’m sorry I shouted...it’s just,” He sighed. “You don’t know that kid alright, you shouldn’t let him get in a car with you,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5Fh6UIvuv
I was still stunned by his outburst that I hadn’t even responded to him. He sighed deeply before pulling me into his arms and kissing me deeply on the lips. When he felt me not kissing him back, he tugged on my hair slightly, which made me open my mouth in shock. He used that opportunity to stick his tongue into my mouth and he gripped my waist even tighter. But even then, I did not kiss him back.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83jJF0yNaq
“Curly,” He said pulling away and resting his forehead against mine. “I’m so sorry I shouted at you. Please, I just don’t want you to get hurt. I didn’t mean to scare you. Please forgive me,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWEM6vJL4x
“You didn’t scare me,” I mumbled. “Just shocked me as all,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTq0jRMeoLq
“She speaks!” He laughed lightly. “I’m so sorry-”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMN6eA60VZt
I quickly covered his lips with mine and wrapped my arms around his neck. He responded quickly by pulling me on top of him and running his hands down my sides. “Stop apologizing,” I whispered breathlessly against his lips.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpmXttQeJI
“But I-”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2MAAb6CoL
“Stop,” I kissed him again. “I’m ok, you’re ok, we’re both ok, so let’s just leave it in the past,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3ey6wX5V0
“Doesn’t that sound familiar,” He said. “You’ve said that to me before. Is that a favorite saying of yours or something?”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3ArS8ymFW
“Something like that,” I sighed. “Arty would say it to me after we fought. I would try to apologize and he would say it to calm my nerves, or make me feel less guilty I guess,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEkDzVg08gS
“It still sounds weird to hear about you apologizing,” He played with my hair. “I mean...you’re you!”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdHLnxZPQE
“Gee thanks!” I said sarcastically.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUfLpxjNvd
“I mean that in a good way babe!” He grinned. “I think you are-”His previously smiling face suddenly turned serious as he slowly glanced around the room. His playful green eyes now sharp and calculating.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmE9Qmwd7G
“What’s wrong?” I touched his cheek.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AshlMT7Hc
“Shh,” He placed a finger to my lips. “Do not make a sound!”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwP9DhYudi7
Now I was scared, he’s never acted like this before. He wasn’t normal, playful, perverted Crimson anymore, he was now in his guard mode! “Crimson?” I whispered but he shushed me again as he lifted me off of him and slowly stalked towards my balcony doors.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zY2i0BYqf
I nervously watched as he stood beside the door. When he pulled out a gun, my hand flew over my mouth. Why the hell does he have that out? Is an intruder outside? He peered outside and I saw the tiniest bit of shock cover his features. Oh no.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FyBO8yfXV
“Get under the bed!” He whispered harshly at me. “Now Alexandra!”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNdJC3Cl7D
Frantically, I scrambled off of my bed and crawled underneath it, but I kept my head poked out just enough to keep Crimson in my line of sight. He kicked the doors open and fired two shots. My hands immediately covered my mouth in shock as I struggled to catch my breathing. WHAT WAS HE SHOOTING AT? WHAT THE HELL WAS GOING ON?918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnv783i6hxe
“FREEZE!” I heard him shout. “IF YOU EVEN TRY TO MOVE I WILL BLOW YOUR HEAD OFF!”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5ZSZjZMzP
Jesus take the wheel!918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdkYOBI4il
Shuffling could be heard from the balcony and a loud shriek left my mouth when I heard my glass door shatter.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpqHy5ZYx0
“CRIMSON!” I shouted as I panicked. I assumed it was him that had been hurt and was worried. But I soon found out that it was not so.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIiTCccLgq
A tall, muscular figure dressed in all black caught sight of my terrified form that was halfway out from under the bed. The only thing I could visibly see were the intruder’s eyes which were a light gray. Almost as fast as lightening, he stalked over to me and was about to grab me by my hair when, another shot was fired. The intruder’s gray eyes widened as his advances stopped. I slowly stared up in horror to see that a bullet had been fired straight through his forehead. His now limp body fell forward onto my bed as his blood stained my burgundy sheets.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPx2ONXKmD
“ALEX!” Crimson shouted as he ran over to me, his gun was still in his hand. “Are you alright?”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EUaa9ZAzH
But I couldn’t even answer him. I was trembling and my breathing turned ragged as I stared at the dead body on my bed. It had now dawned on me that this intruder was trying to kill me and hadn’t it been for Crimson, it would’ve been me lying face down on my bed in a pool of blood.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqgBjb3Aqb
“Curly,” Crimson said pulling me into his arms. “I’m sorry you had to witness that,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡks7cBoP1WU
I looked up at him to see that he only a few minor scraped on his face and the sleeve on his uniform was torn; but he seemed fine other wise. I held onto his shirt tightly as I cried. Never in my life have I been so terrified!918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9GTxFoGfr
“We’ve got to get out of here,” He said lifting me bridal style into his arm. “Their could be more like him so I am taking you to safety,”918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKozLGXsXs
More? Their were more people out there trying to kill me? My crying had now turned into full on bawling as I cling to Crimson’s shirt. He rubbed soft circles onto my shoulders as he hurriedly took me out of my wing. The palace alarms were now blaring and I could see the flashing red lights from outside.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmadwuZZIq
We had been infiltrated.918Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFSy0Vybsg
