No strings attached- Kyle Stack (Waterloo Road) story

Second encounter; the woods

I watched as Kyle came into the light, followed by others that looked slightly angry. Well, more than slightly.

"Ooo" Finn whistled "someone's angry, I see you turned up this time?" He laughed in his face. My eyes widened when he suddenly grabbed Kyle and pushed him onto a wall violently. "I'd like to see you have the guts to stab anyone of us again" he growled, Kyle quickly kicked him back, making Finn land on the floor. I gasped and quickly covered my mouth. Kyle and the boys that were with him surrounded Finn and began attacking him in a different way than each other did. Tariq and the rest tackled the others to the floor quickly except for Kyle. He kicked Finn in the stomach repeatedly, hard. That's it. I couldn't watch any longer.

"Kyle! Get the fuck off him!" I yelled and ran over, Finn opened his eyes slowly and looked towards me. He had blood trickling down his face and out if his mouth. I dropped down beside him and moved any hair away from his forehead that had stuck to him because of the rain. The shock on Kyles face was literally unrecognisable. I didn't know whether he was going to attack me too or run away.

He grabbed hold of my wrist and pushed me against the wall. Shocked, I just let him do it. I haven't seen this side of Kyle before, I didn't know how to react to it.

"What did I tell you before!?" He growled in my face, I didn't say anything, I just stood there and raised my eyebrows in surprise. "TELL ME!" He repeated

"I'm 17 years old! I can do whatever I want! He hasn't done anything to me-" I gestured towards where Finn lay but hew was gone. Suddenly, Kyle was thrown onto the floor. Finn stood over him, the rest of Kyles lot ran away quickly. Tariq ran towards me asking if I was okay for the 100th time when I just kept watching Finn, what was he going to do?

--

"Don't ever touch that girl like you just did" he grabbed hold of Kyle and pulled him up, shaking him. "Do you hear me?!"

Kyle just smirked and looked over towards me "oh, do you mean Savannah, the girl who lives with me, in my bedroom?" He then looked at Finn and his shocked face.

He let go of Kyle and looked towards me. "What?" He asked turning towards me.

"It doesn't mean anything, I moved here with my mum and twin and have to stay with him for now" I nodded towards Kyle. I didn't want any trouble, I certainly didn't want Finn to hate me, he was the only other friend I had made here.

"You don't have to explain yourself to me" he stroked my check gently and looked into my eyes. Tariq let go of me quickly, asking it less awkward.

"Get off her! Who do you think you are?" Kyle shouted, Finn just chuckled and turned his head towards Kyle.

"I'm sorry, are you his?" Finn asked me, what is it with people labelling me as their property lately?

"No!" I exclaimed, frowning at Kyle. Who does he think he is ordering me about telling me what to do and telling people to "get off me".

"It's funny, you tell me to get off her when I'm not harming her in anyway, but you're allowed to push her against a wall?" He laughed "and where were you when she was about to be raped? Huh? No where, so why don't you run off like the rest of your boys. She doesn't want you around here" He pushed Kyle away, he turned towards me hopefully but I looked away. I heard him walk away quickly.

"I'm sorry" I looked towards Finn, his face still full blood. It was just Tariq, me and him around. Finn had told the rest to go and "deal" with something. I don't know what, and after this, I'm not sure I want to know. I knew I was in dangerous territory being around Finn when Kyle had told me not to, but I'm my own person.

"Hey" he grabbed my face studying it, making sure Kyle had not hurt me "it's not your fault he's a prick" he hugged me and then letting me go. Kyle could be a bit of an idiot I suppose, especially after tonight. I didn't know whether I could trust him after this.

"What was that before?" I asked referring to when he mentioned stabbing.

"What was what?"

"Who stabbed one of your boys?" I asked curiously. We had started to walk straight ahead, I noticed it was the opposite way to which we had came from before. "And where are we going?"

"Damn, you ask a lot of questions, girl" he laughed "and don't you worry about that, I don't want to get you involved in any of this shit. And you can't go back to his after that. He might hurt you. He needs to calm down" he told me soothingly, Tariq soon parted from us, heading home. When Tariq had gone, Finn slipped his hand into mine, but I didn't think anything of it. It's only holding hands, right? It's nothing.

We made our way onto an estate, the houses were nothing special, a bit like Kyles street I suppose but it was on the other side of town. He jumped over a fence leaving me stood there until he unlocked it, letting me in and then locking it again. He opened the back door letting us both in and locking that.

"You're staying here for tonight, I'm not letting you go back to his. Please-" he began and then took my hand "please don't go back"

I looked around, it was quite dark but I could still make out we were in the kitchen. Pictures of a family, I'm assuming his, were hung up around the place. But where were they?

"They're on holiday" it was as if he could read my mind. I nodded before questioning him again.

"And they would be happy with a stranger staying in their house?" I asked smartly, he looked at me and smirked.

"Well, they're not here. And I could use this time to get to know you so you know, you won't be so much of a stranger anymore" he laughed and went toward the stairs "come on, you weren't this shy before" he stuck his tongue out at me, I slapped his arm making him laugh before heading up the stairs. We walked into his room, it was pretty big and he had a double bed along with his own small bathroom.

"I'll sleep on the couch" he said as he chucked me joggers and a plain white shirt I assumed were for me to sleep in "and you can sleep in here" I immediately felt bad, couches aren't the most comfortable of places.

"No, you can sleep in here if you want, I'm not some weirdo who loves personal space you know" I chuckled, he raised his eyebrows and grinned "oh no! Not in that way!" I said horrified at what it sounded as if I wanted.

"I know I was only joking, but are you sure?" He asked seriously, as he got out what he was wearing to sleep in... Bottoms, just bottoms.

"As long as you stay to one side of the bed" I said seriously, I stood staring at him as if telling him to get out.

"I won't look, it's nothing I haven't seen before anyway" he laughed, I shook my head, telling him to turn around while I got dressed. He pulled off his top and swapped bottoms, not caring if I was looking or not... I was but hey I'm a teenage girl.

"When you've stopped staring you can get into bed" he chuckled, he wasn't even turned around!

"What? Have you got eyes in the back of your head now?" I raised an eyebrow at him as he turned around. He picked me up and dumped me on the bed, laughing at my shocked face.

"Yes" he smirked and shoved me over to the other side so he could get in.

"Now, Savannah, I know this is hard to resist" he whipped off the covers revealing his six pack. I rolled my eyes and slapped him "but stay on one side of the bed" he mimicked me making me laugh.

"No problem, anyway, that's nothing I haven't seen before" I whispered, mimicking him back, making him laugh.

"Good night, Savannah" he whispered when he turned off the light switch beside the bed.

"Night Finn" but my head wanted him to answer one question "why do you want to help me so much? I mean, you could of left me in the woods, you didn't have to take me with you and you could of sent me straight home to Kyle instead of letting me stay" I whispered, but I didn't get an answer back, he was asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
