Well, Thank you to Dannii (Guest) and to Ross's Juliet for reviewing my previous chapter! I think I'm going to give shout outs to the people who review because I think it would be fun. PS. I now have the chance to start writing on my mac desktop in Google Docs! So hopefully that means more/quicker updates with all my ideas. Thanks for reading and enjoy!
I sit inside the classroom of my last class before lunch the next day after I got the worst news in my entire life. I can't believe that Theodore Redwood is out of prison. Well, not technically, he actually escaped from prison and now he is after me! I feel like i have to always be on a lookout for any danger. I had to do that in the first place since i am a spy but that is different because now he is going to be seeking revenge.
I feel someone touch my shoulder and I use my reflexes to quickly stand up, turn around, use my arms to hold myself up grabbing onto the chair with one hand and using the other to grab onto the desk and fling my legs up in the air and kick the person in the stomach and they fall back onto another desk and fall back onto the floor. I just started focusing on who I just attacked and then realizing who that person exactly is.
My hair was in my face and so I used my left hand to push it back looking at the person who I attacked. Sorry Austin, I thought. I think it would be a better idea to actually say it out loud instead of saying it in my head. "Austin, I am so sorry." I help him off the floor. I hold out my hand and he grabs it and I pull him up. I have to make it seem like I don't have much muscle so I groan a bit and pretend to lose my balance a bit. Austin grabs my shoulders to help me steady myself. I swear I felt a spark between us but ignored it like all the other ones that has happened between us before.
"Ally, are you okay?" Austin asks me still keeping his hands on my shoulders. I don't know if he is doing that because he thinks I'm still going to fall over or if he is still doing that because he wants to. And if he wants to, why? I don't know why I'm thinking into great depths to figure this out when I have no reason to wonder. He is my best friend, of course he's going to worry about me.
I blow a piece of my hair out of my face that moved there when I accidentally attacked Austin. "Yeah, I'm fine."
"Are you sure, because you almost karate chopped me into pieces?"
"Yeah, you just scared me, that's all." His hands on my shoulders are distracting me a bit and I don't know why. It's not like it's a big deal and all.
"Okay, but that doesn't explain that lately you haven't been paying attention in class. All you do is stare at the clock and click your pen. You never take notes anymore and that's not the Ally I know and love." I feel a big spark of heat flow through my body and I don't know why. Maybe it was because he said love. I don't know why I would feel nervous around Austin when he says he loves me because we're just friends. It's not like we are romantically involved in anyway. Goodness, I never even think of him in that way till now. But how come I feel this way. All I know is that I don't have any room in my schedule for being romantically involved in anyone. But I do have to figure out how I feel about Austin. "Also, how come we didn't do anything last night? I was supposed to pick you up last night and we were going to hang out but when I got to your house your dad said that you weren't home and that you wouldn't be home for a couple more hours."
"Oh, I was running a few errands and totally lost track of time. I totally forgot about our plans." I half lied. I didn't really run any errands but I did lose track of time and because I was way too scared of Redwood I lost track of time. And if I'm being some what honest, I didn't really feel like leaving the house knowing that I could be killed any minute.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, I'm sure."
"Okay." He sighs. "I was shaking you because the bell rang a while ago and realized that you weren't next to me so I thought you stayed back to talk to the teacher or something so I came back for you and then I saw you sitting at your desk staring at the clock or outer space, or whatever you were doing, and then I came over to you and you kicked me. Like, it was pretty cool but where did you learn to do that?
"Oh, um...I took a few classes online and learned on my own. I could teach you sometime if you'd like?"
"Cool. Sounds fun." I hear my stomach growl. Austin raises his eyebrows and smile and I laugh a little. "Ally, I think it's time for lunch."
"I think so too."
"How about we go somewhere for lunch?" Austin asks me.
"Okay, the Food Shack across from the school is open for lunch everyday. Want to go there?"
"Great."
We both walk out of the school and walk across the street. We enter the restaurant and find a seat. A waitress comes over to us and gives us a small menu to choose from. After we decided that I wanted to eat a small poutine and he was going to get one too, the waitress walked away with a forced smile on her face. After waiting for our food I see our waitress come around with our food. She smiles when she comes over here and sets our food down in front of us. "Thank you." I say and then she gives me a strange look then leaves. I then quickly realize a familiar tattoo above her right elbow. It was a dragon, the same dragon I saw on Redwood. As soon as I realized what was going on I grabbed Austin's hand and drag him out of the restaurant running away. "Austin, we have to go!"
"Whoa!" He says. We continue running away from the restaurant. "What is going on? Why are we running?"
"It's a really long story."
Austin pulls me back and we stop running. I nudge him to keep running but then he says, "We are not going anywhere until you explain yourself."
I sigh in annoyance. I drag him behind a large trash can and we bend down on the ground. "I am an agent from the CIA and I have a bad guy after me. The waitress in there was one of the bad guys that are after me."
"After you? Are you in trouble?"
"No, a guy a helped put in jail is now out of jail and is after me and I just found out last night. That's why we didn't hang out last night. I was way too scared."
"What? What are you?"
"I am a spy, CIA Agent. I'm Agent Dawson, welcome to my world."
Austin gave out a little chuckle before he passed out on the ground.
Leave a review? Thank you!
