Kiana Pierce

There's just something about that girl that evokes something in me.

Argh!

I had this very weird dream before coming to this house.

Ugh I can't really explain it. How nice is it to be me.

It's been a few days since I came here and I try to keep my distance to not form attachments but that girl-Davina will always find a way to make me talk.

"So where are you from?" She asked

I growled at her pestering presence.

"Are you really this moody?" She asked another question

"Shut up! And just leave me alone!" I hissed

"Geez" she rolled her eyes and left.

Finally a moment to myself.

Then I hear a melodious voice from the hallway

"but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up

I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away"

Wondering who it was as my curiosity reached it's peak but dwindled instantaneously as the other girl- what's her name again? Kai? Kell? K- Ah, Kya walked into the kitchen,unaware of my presence.

"You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down, but I won't fall
I am titanium" she continues hitting the high notes effortlessly

I cleared my throat and she jerks in response,her checks slightly tinted red from embrassment

"Uh..h-hi" she stutters

I looked at her blankly and slowly walked towards her.

"Where did you learn that song?" I asked kindly this time.

"I-ii don't kn-know" she gulps

"Relax,I won't bite" I say as I place my hand on her shoulder

And get the shock of my life.

She also flinched back,her eyes wide and heart racing. Her breathing hitched. Then she looked at me with shiny eyes.

Oh no,please don't tell me those are tears..

"Do you hate me?" She asked randomly,her voice almost soft as a whisper

I blinked at her question.

Do I?

Since Davina introduced us,I been reserved but extremely hostile towards her.

I just have this urge to protect her, to shield her innocent self away from this cruel world. Even the thought of hurting her breaks my heart.

I can't afford to get attached, I ju-just can't.

"Surprisingly I don't hate you" I sighed

"B-But you randomly snap at me whenever I sing and you practically avoid me like the plague" She says

"I don't trust you" I admit

She looks up at me with glossy eyes and a tiny sob breaks from her lips.

I can't deal with crying. Because I grew up knowing crying is for the weak.

"Its okay" she smiles and leaves the kitchen

Now I can focus on figuring out how to leave this place and carry out my plan.
