Ch.14: Not so Friendly Encounter
~A week later Craig's Pov~
I'm sitting upside down on the couch, staring blankly at the tv screen. I sigh, Jon and Evan were training one on one and Lui and David are both asleep in their rooms. Tyler is in the shower so I have no one to talk to. I groan and get up walking into the kitchen and open the fridge, nothing. "God damn it." I curse and slam the fridge closed. "The fridge didn't do anything to you, why do you have to slam it?" I yelp and turn around, throwing a punch. It hits Tyler square in the nose and he yells, stepping back and holding his nose. "OH MY GOD! I'M SO SORRY TYLER!!" I yell and grab some paper towels since his nose is bleeding. "I-It's fine, I shouldn't have startled you. Damn you have a good swing." I laugh shyly and grab his hand, moving it out of the way and started to clean up the blood that was coming out of his nose.
He blushes, as do I, but I continue anyway. "Anyway the reason I cursed and slammed the fridge door is because there isn't any food. We need to go get some more and since we are the only two here that's awake, we need to be the ones to go get it. We need foodz." He chuckles when I say foodz. "Yeah, we can go. I'm hungry anyway." I take the paper towel and throw it away, his nose not bleeding anymore. "Let me go get dressed." I nod and he walks to his bedroom, leaving me in the kitchen.
I go get my shoes and put them on, not too long after Tyler comes back and puts on his own shoes, mine being flip-flops and his some hiking boots. We walk out and start to walk through the forest to town. "How long does it take to get to town?" I ask and he shrugs, "Ten maybe fifteen minutes. we like being secluded here in the woods. We can be free with our powers and let our ears and tail be free without worry of being freaks or people wanting to experiment on us." I nod. "It's really peaceful, I like it out here. The woods is so full of life and not filled with noisy people or cars, you can hear the birds chirp their melodies in the morning without the fear of being over-heard by jackhammers n shit." He nods to my response. "Yeah- Oh hey, we're here."
I look forward and there's the town. we walk and walk, going to the nearest grocery story. We find a fair sized Kroger and walk in. I've learned that his power is to turn himself invisible and is able to teleport objects where ever he pleases. So he can walk in and out of somewhere with a lot of objects and never get caught.
We walk up and down the isles, looking at many food items and him touching some, teleporting them to cabinets and the fridge in house. We only do this because we have no money, and we don't enjoy it, we just do what is necessary to survive. "Hey, lets split up and just text me if you find anything you or the others may like." He says and hands me a phone. They have their own sets of phones for strictly texting and calling, nothing else. " 'Kay." I walk off into the other isles.
I was walking down the chips isles, looking at the many different varieties. "CRAIG!" My blood runs cold. I know that voice. Oh how I loath that voice. I slowly turn around and there stood my father and mother. Both looking shocked and pissed. "CRAIG YOU LITTLE SHIT!" I start to run, a pair of footsteps running after me. We pass a stand that was advertising kitchen knives that had some in stock and I hear him grab one. "WHY CAN'T YOU JUST DIE ALREADY YOU LITTLE FAGGOT! WHY WONT YOU DIE?!" I look back, but end up tripping and falling. I flip over and he dives at me, I hold his wrist with the knife and the other on his shoulder, his free hand around my throat.
"T-TYLER!!!"
~Tyler's POV~
God what is wrong with me? I've been protective of Craig this past week. Why? I don't know why, it just feels right. That he should only be mine. Good god what is happening to me? I start to teleport more things to the house when I hear running. Probably just some kids. "WHY CAN'T YOU JUST DIE ALREADY YOU LITTLE FAGGOT?! WHY WON'T YOU DIE?!" I shake my head. Did I just hear that correctly? Suddenly I hear, "T-TYLER!!!" I throw the food back onto the shelf and run to where I heard Craig yell.
I turn the corner, and see a forty-something year old man on top of Craig; holding a knife above his chest. Craig looked over to me, panic written on his face. "HELP!" I growl and charge the man, football tackling him to the side. "STAY AWAY FROM HIM!" I yell. The man stabs me in the shoulder and I hiss. I grab the knife and throw it to the side. He tries to punch me as I'm distracted, but I dodge and punch him in the throat. He coughs blood and I go to Craig who was crying. "C'mon! We have to go!" I yell. He nods and grabs my hand.
I hoist him up onto my shoulder and he yelps. I run to the front doors and outside. The man rumning behind us, the knife once again in his hand. I quickly run to the woods, the man not too far behind. I make sure to hold onto Craig tightly and teleport.
We teleport into the house and I trip on the landing. I fall back, but quickly move Craig so He would be on top of me. I didnt account for what happened next. I fall back onto the couch, pulling Craig with me and he ends up straddling my lap and me beneath him. His lips crashing against mine.
