Hey guys! Don't worry I'm working on 'My Romeo' 's beach as we speak but I had to write this for English class and decided it was kinda Shulesy? I don't know it's supposed to be a write like the authoer story and I did Laurie Faria Stolarz who wrote Deadly Little Secrets. If you want to help me revise this that would be awesome too. I might "finish" this like where they solvfe the case if I get enough reviews who REALLY want it but I'm going to focus on my series of oneshots for now. Hope you like it!
The car zoomed forward never coming to a stop. I tried to scream but my voice couldn't squeak out a single word. I closed my eyes, a sign of defeat. Waiting, waiting to be hit.
But it never came.
I waited a few seconds longer. Still nothing. I stole a glance up.
There was nothing. Just an alley filled with overflowing trash cans, the sound of police car's sirens blocks away. I sighed a sigh of relief.
But then I heard a click. A click of a trigger. I turned around slowly, as I put my hands up in the air.
"What did you do something against the law?" my boyfriend Shawn said grinning, a pen in his hand.
"Shawn! I thought you had a gun!" Despite how angry I was at him I felt a wave of relief wash over me, my heart beating a little bit slower.
"I can tell. Why would you even think that though?" he said, his eyebrows furrowing up in confusion.
"You mean you weren't in the car?" I replied mirroring the look on his face.
"What car? Jules what's going on? Are you okay? Please tell me what's going on!" he said somewhat frantically. If the situation wasn't so serious I would have smiled at how much he worried for me. But the situation was serious. And I was in danger. At least I think I am.
"Jules? Hello? Juliet are you home? Say something!" I shook my head hoping all my questions would just fall out of my head and into the gutter that was nearby. And never come back.
"Sorry Shawn I was just thinking about what…happened." I said trying to look like nothing out of ordinary had happened anyway.
"Okay but what did happen? Please tell me I need to be there to protect you!" This time I did nothing to hide my smile. I turned to look at him and his worried face.
"And I need to be there to protect you" I stood on my tip-toes and kissed him lightly on his pale, pink lips. He smiled lightly, but it went away almost has fast as it had come.
"What's wrong?" I asked concern filling my voice.
"I still don't know what happened." He feigned hurt as he pouted.
"Okay Shawn I'll tell you. I was on my break taking my run when all of a sudden these guys in a big black truck started driving after me. I turned into this alleyway thinking they couldn't follow me through the narrow street. But there must have been another way in because when I tripped over a pole back there, they started driving towards me and I thought they were never going to stop! It was so scary Shawn! I thought I'd never see you again!" At the end of my explanation I started crying, but Shawn wrapped his arms around me and murmured words of comfort under his breath as I continued to sob. And he held me as if he would never hold me again.
So how was it? Not very Shulesy I know but I thought I'd post it anyway. Hopefully I'll get the next prompt (beach) up in like the next couple of days but I'm just so busy(I'm sure some of you can relate)!
