Blue Eyes (A Paranormal Romance)

Chapter 44

While it is scary to think that I'm going to be unconscious, which means I'm leaving my life completely up to Jake, I do feel like I can trust him, and rules are rules, so I don't really have any option but to let him do it, do I?

I nod my head slowly "Okay, it's totally painless right?" I ask, feeling my hands begin to shake. "Right." He confirms, stepping closer to me. "Alright, just close your eyes and lean forward." He says. I do as I'm instructed. After a moment, I feel Jake's warm hand on my face. It's a calm, soothing action that instantly brings goosebumps to my arms. It's silly, I know. It's pathetic, lame, and totally wrong, but that doesn't stop it from happening.

I can feel Jake's peppermint-orange breath blowing lightly on my face and feel a small smile reach my lips despite everything. There's just something about Jake, maybe it's his always calm attitude, or his cocky confidence, or maybe that sexy smirk of his...oh gosh I'm going totally off topic, I apologize, my point is, somehow he's always able to calm me even when I'm in my most hysterical moments.

"Princess?" Jake says "Yeah?" I breathe out, keeping my eyes closed. "You're welcome." he whispers, his lips pressed lightly against my ear, of course sending a shiver down my spine. I don't know what he's saying you're welcome about, because he's knocking me out? Or maybe he felt me physically relax, before I can find out, there's a slight buzzing noise filling my ears and I feel my head start to fall, suddenly I'm overtaken by complete darkness, and all I can do is stay still and think. Trapped in my own thoughts, there's only so well this can go, and it wasn't looking positive.

It's impossible to keep count of time as in I'm sitting here, my thoughts swarming me. This is serious torture, of course Jake had left out the part about me being trapped in my own mind, for who knows how long.

But as I was saying, I don't know how long I'm in here, thinking about every little thing down to my favorite Star Wars quote. (It was a close call between 1. Do or do not. There is no try. 2. Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and Hate leads to suffering. 3. Be mindful of your thoughts, Anakin, they'll betray you. But in the end, I had to choose 2.) I've been lost in thought going over every detail of every little thing, I've been considering possibilities, I've been thinking over memories, I've been wondering strange little nothings, I've been up and down and all around my mind and now I'm just sitting here, bored. I've found during this time that my mind is a lot darker than I had originally thought...but I won't get into that.

Suddenly, without any warning, I'm brought out of my head and into the real world. As soon as I open my eyes and see Jake standing in front of me, I begin punching and slapping, jumping off of the bike as Jake backs away. "Ow, hey! What's your problem? What did I do?" He asks holding his hand up to defend himself. "You," I say punching him in the chest "locked," I growled, flinging another punch at him, this time in his stomach.
"Me," again I pause to punch. Jake is backing away and looking at me with confusion "in my mind," I scream, punching him in the arm this time "for a bajillion years!" I exclaim slinging my fist at him once again, but this time he catches my fist in his hand and holds onto it.

A small smirk raises the right side corner of his lip "oh, right, did I forget to mention that?" He asks feigning innocence. I let out a huff and stick my tongue out at him, which of course he raises an eyebrow at, suggesting something that definitely wasn't what I meant.

My eyes widen and I feel my cheeks blush, I quickly look away, turning around towards he motorcycle. "Where are we? Why'd you wake me up?" I ask looking around.

We're in the middle of the woods, there's literally nothing around us besides dirt, trees, grass and leaves, as far as I can see, there's no openings, just this deep forest.
