Chapter 3

I just let out a sound of laughter as I loosen my grip on his hand. I could do this every night of my life and I would never be bored.

Our footsteps were heavily hitting the cemented ground. Both of our breathing was heavy as we both panted.

"STOP THERE, KIDS!" he shouted once again.

Even from here I can practically hear the guy's panting and his heavy footsteps.

The feeling in my chest felt so amazing. It was almost as if it's my first time doing this all over again. My body was hot from all the running. My eyes tear up from laughing. And my heart felt like it was running a whole mile.

The cold breeze of air hit my face and blow my hair as I continued to run. My breathing felt weirdly abnormal.

The feeling was just so indescribable. It was like I was nervous, scared, happy, and at the same time....free.

I was free from everything, every time that I do this. Free from family problems, from school stress, from every single thing that's keeping me from being free.

It's not that I'm a rebel. In fact I'm actually a really good student, daughter, and all in all, as a person. It's just I think everybody deserves a little bit of fun every once in a while.

Fuck the law. There is no law. It's basically just a made up rule a human declared out of nowhere.

Whoever did that, fuck you, bitch.

"What the fu-" He didn't finish when I suddenly took a sharp turn to my right, crossing the streets, still holding his hand.

Sounds of horns filled our ears as the car stopped infront of us, making his eyes widened. This man never did any kinds of trouble in his life and it shows.

We ran infront of a red Mercedes Benz before a laugh left my lips. We continued to passed the street until an old black car that was slow stopped us.

We both stopped for a second and let the car pass because we wouldn't have made it. We stand awkwardly, waiting for the slow car to pass.

"Go!" I screamed at him, scaring him right away, and that made him move and run.

I dragged him with me to a dark alley and pushed him down behind the garbage. I quickly kneeled down next to him and covered his mouth with my hand to shut him up.

His eyes widened at my action, but I just placed my finger on my mouth, overlapping on my nose, motioning for him to shut up.

"Goddamn it! I'm never gonna get promoted." The officer grunts in disappointment.

Once his footsteps faded away from us, I let go of his mouth and slowly backed away.

His gray eyes was widened in shock of what just happened. I looked down at his neck and saw as his Adam's apple bobbed up and down.

All of the sudden, his breathing became more heavy as he tried to gasp for air. His hand is now rested on his chest as he tries to breath. The color on his face turned crimson. My eyes widened as panick begins to rise through my chest.

His finger pointed at the cemented ground. I looked where he was pointing and saw an inhaler lying on the ground. My hand swiftly grabbed it and hand it to him.

As soon as it was in his reach, he grabbed it faster than Flash and inhaled through it.

"Oops?" I smiled sheepishly at him.

His expression hardened at me.

"Really?" His eyebrows rose up. "Opps is all you're gonna say?" he said in a breathy voice. "You almost got me killed and you give me an opps?" he asked.

He looked really handsome when he's mad. All the things he was saying suddenly didn't made sense as I just looked at his mad eyes. His mouth was mouthing words but I didn't really hear it.

Man, I would've been crushing hard if you're not so rude.

He got looks. I can't deny that.

"...and you're not even listening!" He stood up and patted his pants to wipe off the dust.

I did the same thing and locked down the strap of my backpack around my waist for extra security.

The lights flickered from above us. The alley was dark without it. It was plain creepy.

"Listen here, young man," I point a finger at him as i eyed him hard. "If you minded your own business, maybe you wouldn't be here in the first place!" I finished.

"I am part of the 'business' since my father has been frustrated with himself because he can't catch you-" I didn't let him finish.

"EXACTLY. Your dad's business, not yours. And it's not my fault if he's such a slow officer-" he cuts me off this time.

"Well it's not his fault teenagers like you, do stuff you're not even supposed to be doing!"

I was about to open my mouth to shout at him once again, but a loud clang of metal door in the same alley as we are in, cuts me off. The sound was made from someone behind me.

I didn't even realize that we went to far too the point where we got into the creepy part of the city.

I turned around, my hair whipping around my neck. My green eyes widened once I saw big and muscular guys. They were three in total, and a saw figure was being surrounded by them.

Suddenly, I felt Mr. Inhaler wrap his arms around me, caging my arms in, as he bought me down to hide.

When my knees hit the ground hard and fast, I stopped myself from hissing. His arms was still wrapped around mine. I can feel his breathing in the nape of my neck. His forehead was almost touching the back of my head.

"Where you going pretty lady?" A rough and croaky voice entered my ears.

I watched in disbelief as they touch her shoulders creepily. Their hands was playing with something, I couldn't quite figure out.

"Wha- what do you guys want from me?" she stuttered while tightly gripping her bag.

All three men just laugh at her nervousness. It was disgusting. The sound of their laughter was enough to make me puke an entire gallon. They all screamed trouble.

All their laughs slowly died down. Their expressions turned cold and hard against the girl. Fear glowed in her eyes as she trembles. Her entire body was steady but her hands was shaking so much.

The biggest guy took a step towards her, as he hands her a packet. It was small, but luckily for us, I had a good eye. The packet was filled with white powder and a rolled up dollar bill beside it.

Drugs.

Curiosity filled my head, so I stepped forward.

And you see, that's the biggest mistake I did because I accidentally stepped on a shattered glass.

All men turned around and wore a furious face as they look at the surrounding.

    This time, they were more alert than before. One of the men took out a gun, the other took the small bat from the floor, and the last was looking around the corners. My heart was rapidly pounding in my chest. I can practically hear it from here. The sweats dripped down from my temple to my chin as my body felt hotter than it ever did before. I should've done that. I should've look down if I would step on something, and now we're both dead. In a flash, a huge rat comes in view infront of them. All three men slowly looked down at the rat. The man number 1 tilted his head to the side, looking confused. The man number 2 did a little wave at him. And finally, the man number three, stomped on it, instantly crushing it. I fight back a gasp. The s

    I can wreck these people in no time. It'll be a piece of cake. "Hey y'all!" I exclaimed, flashing them a wide grin. They all turned their gaze on me. I was almost satisfied, until I saw that man number 2 had his grip on the girl's arm as he continued to look at me. "Who are you and what the fuck are you doing here?" A man spoke up. Which I'm assuming is the boss since he's the scariest one and largest. He had a huge scar on the left side of his face. A yellow teeth that proves that he doesn't brush his teeth. And a shaved eyebrows. While the other two looked like they were twins. The only difference is that one of them is bald and the other one has a buzz cut. "Hi. My name is...ehh-" I started noticing that the man's grip around her was st

    There were two more left. One of the twins lays on the the ground trying to feel his jaw, while the other tries to punch my guy. But he dodged it and punched the stomach, making a gasp sound leave the bad guy's mouth. He didn't let him recover as he punch the guy straight in the nose, as a crack sound followed. My hair was tugged and I didn't have to know it was the last guy. His grip was strong. No doubt that a little part of my hair is dettached by now. I couldn't let this guy get me. So I stomped on his feet as hard as I. His arms loosen their grip on my neck so I grabbed his wrist and twisted it, and at the same time, kneeing his crotch. That was enough for him to grunt in pain as he falls on the ground. I wanted to do more, but before

    I eyed him disgustingly as he licked the spoon. He turned to me and was confused about why I was looking at him horribly. I've been observing him for quite a while now, and I've noticed that he is a very weird person to hang out with. Not that it's a bad thing. "What?" he asked. After renting a car, we headed to a crowded place in the city and found an ice cream shop. When we were ordering, all he did was flirt with the cashier the entire time, which mad my blood boil. The girl was red as a tomato and all he ever did was wink at her. "You're such a flirt." I rolled my eyes and went back to my ice cream cup as we continued walking together in the sidewalk beside the lake.

    Once we reached the booth, I let go of Renz's sleeves which made him a little disappointed for some reason. I excitedly walked toward the old man, leaving Renz all alone. "Hello. Where's the miniature keychains?" I flashed him my white teeth with a grin. He turned around and looked taken back as he stared at me. His eyes scanned my face for a short moment before he spoke. "Right there, darling. Left corner." He turned his back on me and got back to work. I followed him as I felt Renz's presence behind me. He took me by suprise when he wrapped his arms around my waist and placed his chin on the top of my head. My eyes went wide. His arms were firmly gripping my waist. I can hear his breathing on top of me. My back was on his chest. It felt as i

A tall and intimidating guy exited his car. I couldn't care any less as I went back to Renz. "What are we doing here?" I look back at him. He turned off the car engine before unlocking his door. He got out and slammed the door, before walking towards mine, and he gently opened it for me. "We," He slammed the door shut and locked it. "...are gonna have fun."

He smirked at me, as he dropped my bag beside his feet. The game counts down. 1 2 3 Go! Immediately, I took a ball and aimed my shot. I screamed in victory inside of my mind as It entered the ring.

"What can I get for you today, gorgeous?" I pressed my lips together to keep myself from getting red, but I can already feel the blood rushing to my cheeks. "We would lik-" I started. "Just two tacos," He eyed the guy from head to stomach, since the desk was covering the rest. "Chad." I looked at the guy's name tag. "It's actually Chase." The guy corrects. "Whatever,"

    "Ow." I mumbled when something hit the back of my head. It was a thin metal stick. Then it hit me, we were inside of a...janitor's closet? I wasn't sure, but that stick was definitely a mop. My heart starts pounding louder when I heard the light switch being turned on. I peaked my eyes through the door. He was standing, rubbing his eyes while he was in his pajamas. His figure slowly walked away, I'm guessing he was headed to his room or kitchen. I don't know if we should go now. But if we do, it's going to be risky. "We should go before he comes back." Renz whispered in a panicked voice, our chest almost touching from the lack of space in the closet. S

    "He did what now?" My eyebrows rose up from shock. We're now infront of Devin's living room window. He's laid down on a couch, his face buried on a spongebob pillow, sound asleep while snoring. "Shh," Renz placed his index finger on his nose. "I said my ex cheated on me with him." he said in a gruff voice. Renz has been telling me all the things this guy did to him. And I personally don't think messing with him is enough. This man is pure evil. I would've taken revenge a long time ago. "Why do we need to enter the living room again?" He asked, shaking his head. "Just...follow my lead." I shushed him. My fingers went underneath the window, as I slowly lift it up.

Renz questioned, impatiently leaning against the grocery aisle's pole, a small frown rested on his forehead. I rolled my eyes, not looking at him. When I saw a man with a Walmart uniform passing by, I grinned. "Hey," I said. He stopped his walking. He looked up from his clipboard, turning his head to the side as one of his eyes met mine, his other was covered with his bangs. "Hi?" he awkwardly replied. I took a step forward

She continued to sing and dance around, this time, with flipping her hair from side to side. A chuckle left my lips. My eyes went to focus back on the road, a small smile plastered on my face. "Sing it with me." She demanded. I just rolled my eyes and shook my head. "No." I answered.
