Yay for showing backbone...or a lack of self preservational instincts! :D

Audacity

I deposited my weight face first onto the plush comforter of my bed unmindful of the little woman sleeping not even half a foot from me.

She was a brat really and barely even fifteen.

With my eyes shut tight against invading streams of moonlight, I heard her breathe and then shift.

I felt her eyes roaming my form.

"You're bleeding."

Yeah, I am but I don't give a shit.

Her hands move to touch my shoulders, stripped of the usual cropped white jacket. I growled deeply in warning at her close proximity but she didn't cease her movements.

I felt a familiar, warm, wet appendage drag itself lazily across my wounded right bicep and shoulder.

My snarls continued but they didn't discourage her.

It was moments like these when I realized one of the reasons why I'd taken her from her home in that pathetic human plain.

The girl had guts.

Uncaring of the fact that I could snap her in two with a flick of my wrist she tended to me.

She could be so childish…and yet she handled certain situations with an odd maturity many failed to realize she possessed.

Or maybe I read too much into her behavior as confusing as it is to me.

Maybe the girl's just stupid.

"Brat..." I growl warningly.

She shifts her position and buries her nose into my hair despite it being streaked with blood

"You'll get blood on the sheets." She says.

I don't care.

"You're so reckless."

I suddenly have her by the throat, pressing her down into the soft cushions but not enough to harm.

Not yet.

Her laughter is breathless.

I grin manically, all teeth.

Beautiful…

R&R please but no flames
