Chapter 4- Good at first…
The movie started. As Zero predicted, Sarah had recoiled into his arms from the movie. He gently moved his fingers through her hair as he comforted her. She sunk into his big sweatshirt and smiled as she felt his warm soothing breath on her neck.
As the movie kept on, Zero kept getting more anxious. He wanted the movie to end so he could talk to her more. Finally it did.
"…did you like it?" questioned Sarah beside him.
"yeah..did you?" He said in reply.
"Yeah, it was freaky though.." She said quietly, and Zero chuckled.
As they walk back Zero thought it would be corny…but he held her hand anyways. Zero could tell by Sarah's expression she was happy that he did.
Zero opened the car door for her. It was an silver Explorer (Zero's moms) that she let him borrow for tonight. He just got his license a few weeks ago, but he wanted to impress Sarah so he wanted to drive her.
After a couple of blocks Sarah looked at the car behind her. She thought she recognized it, but didn't bother to press matters further. After Zero cut a few corners Sarah then realized the car was following them..!
Panicking, she didn't know what to do. She didn't know if to tell Zero or not. Just then she recognized the car. It was Johnny Dewmens.

Johnny Dewmens. He's had a crush on Sarah forever and Sarah knew it. He's asked her out more than a few times. Finally she decided to give him a shot. Their date was horrible. The whole time he kept trying to kiss her and make moves on her. She had finally had enough and left. He once beat up a guy who just had asked Sarah for homework!
Sarah thought he moved away a month ago when he never showed up in school but later she found out the real reason….

"…Zero…" Sarah said faintly.
"What is it?" Zero said with concern, noticing the look on her face.
" I uh…think…well..we are being followed.." She said sort of ashamed.
Zero looked in the rear-view mirror and after making some turns noticed that she was right.
Then Sarah told him her suspicion of who she thought it was..
After explaining Zero didn't say anything, which made Sarah more ashamed and she looked away.
"No! It's not your fault don't act like that.." Zero said noticing how Sarah felt.
"Everything is going to be all right.." He said as he gently pressed his lips into hers trying to keep one eye on the road but found it hard.
Sarah loved it. She noticed him start to deepen the kiss when he looked at the road and sort of froze.
Zero had just cut one more corner his heart almost froze…the sign read DEAD END.
