19. "Thief."
"I let you go, but not stupid, Skye"-sounded melodious voice in my mind. I nodded curtly.
Justin moved away from me a couple of centimeters. Involuntarily, I looked at his face lit by moonlight. Eyes in the moonlight looked black. With my lips had almost slipped word that maybe this is my father, so we do not need to sit here and hide. But he stopped me.
"Talking out loud and even whisper unsafe. I can read lips. Let "it" thinks that we do not suspect, "- he smiled. I smiled back at him.
"This may be my father, it can he come?" Said I-mouthed.
Justin shook his head in a different hand installation voice sounded again in my mind.
"None. That's not it. Just trust me. "
"I'm scared." I looked at Justin and slowly added. "We need urgently to go down, it can be a thief."
Justin nodded.
"Go first, I got your back."
I smiled weakly and stepped forward. Justin, quietly slipped into my hand a mobile phone. Raised his eyebrows, I gave him a quick glance in return he shrugged. The guy tried to quietly follow me.
Slowly along the wall, avoiding the creaking of the stairs, I went downstairs. In the tracks, like a shadow, Justin followed me.
I felt for the switch. Mentally count to three I touched a button and the room spilled light.
A man standing near a coffee table, stood up and turned to me.
Justin stepped back a couple of steps, lurking in the shadows and thus undetected.
My eyes widened in surprise, I was speechless.
-Alex! What are you doing here?
He hesitated slightly. Several long strands of his blond hair plastered to his forehead in his hands he held my bag.
-Sorry, it looks not as it seems, barely audible, he said.
-My Bag! Stop, but ... how do you even got into the house?
-You forgot it in the theater and I decided to take her home with you,-he carefully put the bag on the coffee table and continued staring at the floor - I ... Oh ... I'm so ashamed, I had to break down the door and personally deliver the bag, I thought if you leave it on the porch, some hobo take her, suddenly there was something important?
Alex just stood there, staring at the floor not daring to look me in the eye.
-Did you open it?
No, that you and I would never take another thing.
-It's okay, I murmured thoughtfully, - I thought. Thief that you wanted to call the police, I waved the phone in his hand. Proving that I'd really done so.
Alex all pale and shook his head emphatically.
Please, Sky ... I ...
-I will not call them. But next time, I think you wait for "tomorrow" of the day to give me something. Okay?
Yeah, yeah definitely. -I saw in the temples guy sweat glisten.
-In this case - I passed him by opening the door, thank you brought the bag, good night! -I slammed the door as soon as it came out. His back against the door, I slid down on it and hiding his head in the lap of a deep breath.
How many more surprises will bring this and the following days? I was shaking all over, or omitted from the draft of penetrating doors, roofing felts from fear and feelings.
I heard footsteps near him. Justin picked me up by the shoulders and threw bathrobe hugging her.
-How are you okay? - He said softly, kissing my temple.
-I do not know, it's all very difficult. Now I'm not sure if I can sleep peacefully, without fear of demons, Alex or unexpected guests ...
-Well, well, - the guy I carefully tucked a strand behind her ear - go to sleep, if you do everything I tell you.
-All ready - I muttered under his breath.
Then wait in the hallway a few seconds, I am now.
I watched as he scurries here and there a few minutes later he returned.
-Everything is ready. Come on, - he gently took me by the hand and led her into the hall.
I smiled. It was so cute.
On the expanded couch adorned several pillows and terry plaid. Coffee table decorated two mugs from which flowed a fragrant smell, but rather was included television, he must have something turned on, but put on "pause", waiting for me.
I settled on the couch. Justin carefully covered me with a blanket and handed me one of the cups, lying nearby.
What's this? - I sipped from a mug, it was very tasty.
This cocoa-Skye. Hot drink of chocolate. - He smiled and reached for the remote control.
When cocoa was done, we lay down on the couch and turned on the TV, Justin.
-Oh, no - I said laughing. Nam that five years from now?
-What do not you like cartoons? -Now he looked like a little kid who wanted to surprise.
-I love it - I put my head on his chest and stared at the screen. -But why Tom and Jerry?
-So mom used to make, he paused, staring at the screen, and then looked at me. - When I was sick or I was ill, she made hot chocolate, bring a warm blanket and we watched this cartoon - in his eyes flashed sadness.
I saw how it was difficult to talk about it. Honestly, I was embarrassed because I did not know anything about Justin. Even such basic things as his interests, he loves to eat and what not, to listen, is there any brothers or sisters ...
-I always felt sorry for Tom, this mouse is making fun of him as he wants, I'm smiling, turned to Justin.
-And all because Tom first started, only Jerry defends Justin faintly pouted and then smiled.
God, he's just like a child.
I closed my eyes my mind shrouded sleep.
...
The girl fell asleep. Convinced that she was fast asleep, the guy turned off the TV and carefully taking girl in his arms carried to her room.
It was a long day, she had to sleep. Once again check all windows and doors, Justin gently kissed the girl barely touching the cheek and slipped out of the house.
He urgently needed to verify some information.
Before leaving, he just had to make sure that the girl is not in danger.
