How It All Started

Chapter 4- The Explanation

Chapter 4

The car was quiet for a little while too long. I finally gained enough courage to ask, "Why did you do that?"

He just smirked, "Well I wasn't going to let you get raped, and come back to my brother and sister, crying for a week because you got taken away," he says not taking his eyes off me.

"Oh" I managed to laugh, but I couldn't get the fact out of my head how he called me 'his girl', though, I liked how it sounded from his lips. I didn't bother to ask.

"What do you want to ask now?" He says almost reading my mind. How did he know I was contemplating weather or not I was going to ask about how he called me his.

"What?" I ask confused.

"I can tell... You bite your lip when you're deciding if you're going to say something" he says laughing, with a smile! He smiled!

"Umm, nothing really" I didn't want to ask him. I look in the review mirror, and both the kids are sleeping. I also wanted to ask why he wasn't allowed to drive. "Well, actually why wouldn't your mom let you drive?"

"Well I got into a pretty bad accident two years ago with her in the car," he explains looking out the window at the passing cars, I look in my mirrors again, and I can't help but notice that the car behind us, had been behind us since we left the parking lot.

"Oh were you both ok?" I ask trying to take my mind off the fact that we are possibly being followed. I missed the exit to the house, but Shane didn't seem to notice.

"Yeah, well Mom was thank goodness, I broke my leg," he says looking back over at me. "You know you missed the exit?" He asks chuckling. Of course he noticed, he notices everything.

"Yeah I know there's a reason for that. I think we're being followed," I say look behind us again, the car still right behind us.

"Are you sure? Since when?" He says concerned looking out the mirror on his side.

"Since we left that parking lot," I say speeding up to turn downtown. Sure enough he follows.

"Swerve into the different lanes," he says surprised, "Just go with that and see what happens, I won't let anything happen,"

I do what he says and sure enough the car does.

"Take the next exit," he directs.

"Park in front of that bar," he points at a spot right in front. I park and the car pulls up beside me, I'm slightly freaked out by the creepy look he's giving me.

"Oh I know who it is," he almost says annoyed.

"Who is it?" I ask looking away from the window.

"This loser that still can't get over the fact that I beat him, twice," he says undoing his seat belt.

"Shane don't leave," I say almost a whisper. Just as I say that I look out my window, I lock the door quickly. He looks to be about twenty five, with jet black hair.

"I'm not letting anything happen to you," he says back whispering. I look back at Chelsea and Marcus still sound asleep.

"Be careful," I say looking back at the guy that is now starring at me smirking.

"Don't worry about me Sweet Cheeks," he says unlocking his door, and gets out. I watch him walk around my car. He stands beside my window, and the guy rolls down his window. I can't hear what they're saying, I'm not sure I want to. I was worried about him. Not sure why I only just met him, not like we'll ever lead to anything else.
