The hunter and the hunted
Louis was stuck in his room all bored like every other day of their sad sad lives. Louis laid with his back on the floor and his legs on the wall just continuously sighing to himself hoping the extra oxygen will give him an idea. Nothing came. Not one single damn idea came. Louis was going to lose his mind if he didn't find a project soon. He couldn't keep playing the piano when he was bored. His fingers were crying just thinking about hitting another key. Louis decided to make use of himself and see what was happening outside. He ran to the courtyard and asked around to see if he could help.
"You can help me Louis." Aasim called from a couple yards away as he made his way to the man in dreads. "I have to go hunting in a little and could always use the extra help."
"Cool! I'll join you then!" Louis smiled and gave a double thumbs up.
Aasim nodded and walked away from the boy about to peak in boredom and decided to hit up his girlfriend. Aasim walked to the red haired girl and started up a conversation.
Louis waited impatiently for the time where they would go hunt. Aasim walked in the door and Louis jumped up and ran out faster than he ever had.
Aasim just laughed at his energy and closed the door as he exited the space.
They were quiet as they were on the trail. They decided to check all of the traps today rather than just the closest ones. They ended up getting a lot more than they thought. While Louis was neutralising one of the traps he heard a loud snap in the woods in front of him. He held his chair legs close to him and forgot about the trap.
He looked up as his heart started to pound. He was on edge and he soon saw a woosh from the corner of his eye.
"Who's there? I know you're here!"
He heard one of the traps clamp and he moved to it hoping the danger was caught. He held out his chair leg as he rounded the tree covering the traps view.
He jumped out of his skin as he saw a girl trapped in the jaws of the trap.
She cried as she tried to unhinge it from her bleeding ankle. She groaned and sobbed in pain.
"H-here, let me help. These are my traps." He bent down and took the trap off of her foot. She fell to the ground and cupped her ankle to stop the bleeding.
Louis, without saying anything, leaned down and put his hand on the wound.
She flinched and moved away.
"It's okay, I won't hurt you." Louis took off his coat and put it around her ankle.
She stared it him as he helped her. He helped her stand and he told her about his home as he took her there. She just stayed quiet before Louis asked her name.
"Y/n." She replied quietly.
"I'm Louis."
She smiled as a gesture of happiness and they made it to the gates.
"We have a survivor but she's injured!"
"Come on in."
The gates opened and they hobbled inside. They got to the stairs before y/ns body gave out.
"She's losing too much blood, she can't walk anymore."
Three boys helped carry y/n in to the medical room and ruby quickly patched her up.
"I'm sorry about your coat Louis." Ruby frowned
"It's alright. I had to to save her. Maybe I can still save it, wash it off in the river." He mumbled.
The girl soon stirred from her sleep and looked to see the dread head boy looking away from her.
"Louis?" She asked in a whisper.
He turned quickly and walked to her bedside.
"Hey, you're alright and safe. You're in the medical room of my home."
She just nodded and sat up.
"A-are you sure you should be walking?"
She nodded and stood up.
"Wow, you're strong. Stronger than I could ever be. Walking on your hurt leg like that. I would have to be babied for days."
She laughed and looked at him.
"Thank you for saving me Louis. I wouldn't have lived."
"I know, but you don't have to thank me but you could pay me back." He smiled.
"And how could I do that?"
"How about a kiss?" He laughed.
I couldn't tell if he was joking or not but I decided to do it anyway. I kiss his cheek quickly and saw his smile turn to shock.
"W-well, j-just the cheek?"
"Don't push it Louis." I giggled.
"I-I'll wait." He laughed nervously. His face turned red and he stood in shock.
"One day you'll get a kiss, but today is not that day."
