Okay, I decided to call him. I was just curious, like always. It was a pretty hard decision to make, I was walking around in circles in my room and hastily told everything to my friends on the phone.
They all sighed and said "just do it." Except for Jen which said he may be a stalker and screamed at me for thinking that I actually even considered that I should do it.
Doing exactly what she said not to, I snatched the phone up from my desk and dialled his phone number following the back of my hand.
"Hello?" said a familiar voice. The phone jumped out of my hand since I was so distracted thinking what I should say.
"Hey, it's Iris," I replied back quickly.
"I see you made the decision of calling me, Iris. Thought it would take longer than 3 hours. May I ask you to come over at my place around... Now?" he asked with merriment.
Should I go? The dangers of going? Didn't think about that much when I just said "Okay, I'll come. Where?" I asked.
"The forsaken mansion is where I live, it's a beauty," he said.
The forsaken mansion was thought to be haunted around here, nobody lived there for 50 years, the owner died in that house so nobody dares to buy or knock down the forsaken mansion which thought to be extremely scary according to the stereotypes around here.
"Got it, Onyx. I'll be there in 10." I said quickly as I hung up the phone and rushed downstairs.
"Daddy, I'm going out. I'm going to borrow the car," I shouted out as I flew downstairs.
"Ok, come home by 10," my dad replied back.
As I backed out of the driveway, I kept thinking that should I even go? What would happen?
--
As I drove to Onyx's house, night began to fall. It became a beautiful twilight with ravens soaring through the magical sky. The slightest tinge of blue, purple, pink flowing and mixing into the dabs of golden from the sun. Absolutely magical.
I saw the forsaken mansion towering over the other houses from our small city. The forsaken mansion was up a small hill, it looked lonely all by itself sitting at the top. I placed my dad's SUV right beside the Mercedes that was parked at the stone driveway.
I reached up to the door and knocked it since there was no doorbell. I quickly used my long bony fingers and ran through my hair to smooth it out.
"Hey, come inside and I'll give you a tour,"Onyx said after he swung the grand door open.
"Okay," I replied as he took my hand gently to pull me up into the house from a gigantic step. I flinched from his grasp and almost fell back from the steep steps. He quickly grabbed me by my arm to support my balance and pulled me inside.
"Are you okay?" He asked with worry.
"Yeah, I'm okay," I replied back.
After a short pause, he gazed into my amethyst eyes and he finally said something.
"I know what you're thinking. You don't have to do that every time I touch you by the hand, you know. I don't bite..." He said.
"I'm okay, thanks for stopping me from falling from your totally safe stairs," I said with exaggeration.
"Your welcome, and this is my house," he said while holding my hand out to emphasize the size of the dark mansion.
I've never seen the inside of the forsaken mansion, not many others did either. Maybe because nobody wanted to. I was awed at the appearance of the mansion, they redecorated more than I expected. It had high ceilings, black patterned wallpaper, small cobwebs in the corners, black classy furniture and it had lighting in the mansion that felt like the moonlight was shining down upon us with dimly lit candles.
"What do you think?" He asked politely.
"It's beautiful, it's like my dream house. All the black is so stylish and elegant." I said as my eyes shone with excitement.
His icy blue eyes lit up in the dim lighting and led me to other beautiful rooms.
"And this is my room." He announced as he pushed the door open with his back. I peered at the dark room, mahogany hardwood floors with a matching bed, several antiques for decoration on his clean desk and black curtains. His room was so clean and modern compared to the ancient mansion.
"Come and sit on the bed, make yourself comfortable." He said as he gestured towards his tidy bed.
I sat down and splayed my fingers across his arm. He reached down towards my hair and combed through the sleek strands.
Then, he smiled at me. So I flashed him a crooked grin. I may not know him very well but something always drew me towards him.

Hehe, isn't it weird how they just met and they're already so close? Do you guys trust Onyx? What do you think will happen next?
