Chapter 3
Becky's Pov
After we finish having the picnic. Charlotte, Finn and I went home. It was getting dark and I still wanted to walk outside. I got the permission from Finn and Charlotte to walk outside. They said I have to be back in an hour at best. So I made my way to the sidewalk and started to walk along the path. I take in the beauty of this town. I take a deep breath, this soothes me.
Seth's Pov
It's the girl that bumped into me, earlier in the day. What is she doing here. It's dangerous to be walking alone in these streets. So I made my way towards her.
"Miss what are you doing here," I ask her.
"Just walking around, I love to walk it's so peaceful outside," she told me.
"Well it's dangerous. Also miss I don't think we have properly introduce ourselves. My name is Seth by the way," I said.
"My name is Becky and I understand your concern Seth. But I have been walking alone on this path everyday," she said.
"Still a young girl like you. Shouldn't be walking alone. Especially at night where dangerous men lurk around," I said.
"Well I want to walk. So I am gonna walk," she said.
"Okay well I am joining you," I said.
"No," she said abruptly.
"Why not," I ask.
"Because I am not allowed to be seen with you," she said.
"So you have heard of my reputation. Don't believe what people tell you about me," I said.
"Even if it's from my sister and brother warning me to stay away from you," she said.
"I am not a bad guy. People fear me for what I do and the life I live. My job makes me the bad guy," I said.
This is the first time I am opening up to someone and I like it. Because it's her that I get to open up too. Maybe I can let myself be free. Actually scratch that nope. Because if I let her in. I know my enemies will hunt her down and kill her. I must stay away from her and don't listen to my heart.
"You have a choice. You can choose a job that you love," she said.
"It's not that simple," I replied to her.
"Explain to me why it isn't simple," she said.
"I can't," I said and I turn my back. I start to walk away from her.
"You should let people in," she said to me.
"You should go home Becky. It's getting late. You don't want your sister and brother to worry about you," I said.
With that being said, we both went our separate ways. I need to forget about her. I can't let her into my life. Because her life will be put into danger right away.
End of this chapter. Hope you guys enjoy. Comment your thoughts. Will Seth ever open up to Becky? Will he ever let her in? Until next time. Love you all.
