At The Beta's Command

Chapter 4

After my Venti Espresso Frap, large iced cold coffee caramel and another medium sized iced Belgian coffee, Moniq and I are ready to hit the road again, and walk home.

“I don’t know where you are storing that amount of caffeine in your body.” Moniq stated playing with my three empty cups of caffeine. “Too much coffee for me gives me a zombie night, like I’m up til morning and it’s not funny! I had the worst headache the whole day!” she shrieked like someone’s burning her. How she managed to always squeal and shriek every time she gets frustrated is still amusing to me and I love her just like that though there are times that I got annoyed and irritated.

“Oh, you know how I’m immune with caffeine, as long as I got tired I’m out of life embracing my mickey mouse pillow, caffeinated or not!” I replied.

“Whatever, I’ll just go the restroom before the long walk home.” She said standing already not waiting for any of my response. I was just about to follow her to the restroom because my bladder decided to seek attention and wanted out when someone caught most of my interest than my fuming bladder. I think that’s what you get when you had a lot of caffeine stored in you. Your bladder always has to disturb you.

Back to the one who got my interest, there’s a guy just across the street talking with other two guys who look too serious listening to him. The guy in blue washed jeans and grey fitted shirt has a black messy hair, tall maybe about six foot four in height, muscular stomach, chest and arms, I can say he has eight packs abs and a very beautiful ocean blue eyes. I swear, even the word hot is an understatement! As if on cue he looked my way and he stared at me. He freaking stared at me! I feel like I’m dying just staring back at him and my bladder was getting excited I can’t really hold it anymore but I have to. I’m gonna pee just by looking at him and omigod! I’m so sorry Blakey I feel like I’m cheating on you!

Gosh, I really need to check my pulse and heartbeat. What am I saying…”C’mon Amber, put yourself together!” And now I’m talking to myself! See? I was rumbling in my head.

I was about to look away when his eyes suddenly changed from ocean blue to black, and I am not hallucinating I swear I saw it changed! Then just like that I felt strong rough hands on my throat choking me and the next thing I knew I was outside the café with the shuttered glasses surrounding me and the man who is trying to choke me to death with his strong gripped hands around me.

“Arr, carrnnnt, breeeaaatthheee….” I said breathlessly to the man who is holding me. Oh god I’m sorry for being a bad girl, I swear spare my life this time and I’ll be good! I’ll do my homework every day and pass all the entrance exams at all the colleges in this country just don’t take my life today! Now, I’m praying silently. And I’ll never drink again, or go home drunk or even go home late promise!

“Am I scaring the Ms. Pretty sweet little girl?” my hostage taker asked me loosening his hold a bit.

“No, I’m fine not scared at all I’m perfect just like how the weather is perfect!” was my sarcastic retort rolling my eyes at the goon. Wow, way to throw away my life chance by my smart mouth, er?

“Oh, sweetie, you just signed your death!” was his response tsking mischievously on me.

“Put the girl down Tyler! Or I’ll rip your throat out in seconds!” who’s that? I didn’t know that I shut my eyes out of fear so I opened them and saw the black haired hot (ehem) guy commanding and glaring at Tyler, my hostage taker. Wow, if looks could kill this Tyler guy would be freezing dead on the floor already. Did I say this guy has ocean blue eyes? I think I’ve mistaken, it was pure deep black at the moment but still beautiful and captivating if that’s the right term.

“Rip my throat? Here at the human town?” Tyler guy challenged.

“No, we could go to the outer space and meet the aliens at the alien town!” now, have I ever told you that when I’m freaking out I speak without my brains working properly? Yes, that’s me. So intelligent! But what, you can’t blame me. Who calls a simple town like ours human town unless they’re not humans…omg! Maybe I’m right they’re aliens!
