Chapter 4

Kim's POV

Garrett was standing there. He immediately ran over and grabbed me away from Jack. He put me behind his back.

"GET OUT OF HERE!" Garrett shouted,"GO! GET AWAY FROM US!"

Jack stood up. He walked toward us, and Garrett pushed me back.

"Why should I get away from you?" Jack asked.

"I know what you've done! Twisted her mind! Well, you're gonna stop now. Get the hell out of here! Or I'll kill you"

"You'll kill me?!" Jack asked. Then he took a stance. Garrett took one too. He and I did karate together. That's how I met him. I ran inbetween Garrett and Jack.

"Guys stop! I've always dreamt of being fought over by two guys, but not a fight to the death! Please"

They both looked at me, then gave each other stone cold looks.

"Lets go Kim" Garrett said, walking away. I stayed where I was. I wasn't ready to leave Jack. Ever.

"Kim?" Garrett turned around and asked me.

"Garrett. I, I'm sorry. I can't leave Jack" tears started filling my eyes. Over the past two days crying was one of the last things I did. I'm doing it now.

"Why can't you leave him? He's a robber, a kidnapper and a murderer! He'll kill you the second you two are alone!"

"No he won't! I trust him Garrett. And you can't tell me otherwise"

Then he did the last thing I'd ever expect he'd do. He ran over to Jack and hit him in the head. Jack fell to the ground, unconscious.

"JACK!" I screamed, as I ran over to him. But Garrett grabbed my arm and pulled me back.

"How could you love him? You love me"

"I can't love you. Not after Jack. And especially not after what you just did" I said breaking free of his grip. I walked over to Jack and nealt down beside him. What I didn't notice at the time, was Garrett pulling out his cell phone.

After about five minutes Jack came to. I hugged him and he hugged me back. I helped him sit up and he rested his back against the tree.

"You ok?" I asked him.

"Yeah I'm fine" he responded, "where's Garrett?"

"I don't know" I said. I kissed him lightly on the forehead then rested my head on his shoulder. We were both tired so we easily fell asleep.

I woke to the sound of police cars. I immediately sat up and so did Jack.

"Jack we have to get out of here!" I told him. He nodded in agreement and stood up. I took his hand and we went running through the woods. We were totally lost, but we headed away from the police sirens. Then we heard dog barking.

"Jack. If they have anything of yours, or if they find that fire pit. They'll have your scent!"

"It's fine! Were going to be ok! I know somebody" he reassured me. Then he took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

"Rudy" he started,"I need you to pick us up at the gully. We need to make a quick getaway"

"Be there soon Jack" I heard the man, Rudy, on the other end of the phone say. Jack hung up and the pulled me in the other direction. I could hear cars nearby. Then we stopped at the edge of a gully. I could see a few more trees, then a road on the other side. The gully was too big to jump, so Jack slid into it. I heard the dog barking coming closer, so I slid in after him. I splashed into a little puddle at the bottom then I ran over next to Jack. We started climbing the side of the gully, which was steep and wet. I looked back and saw the dogs at the edge of the gully.

"Jack" I said wide eyed, tapping him. He turned around and his eyes went wide too. The dogs just stood that the edge, waiting for command. Jack and I climbed faster. Once we were almost at the top, the cops arrived at the edge of the gully.

"Go! Get him!" One of the cops shouted. The dogs ran into the gully after us, as the cop was talking over his radio. One of the dogs had managed to get up the side of the gully, and it bit Jack's leg. He groaned in pain and I pushed him out of the gully. Then he pulled me out. We went running toward the road. I saw a small, gray car sitting on the side of the road.

"Go get in the car. That's Rudy's" Jack told me. I put his arm around me and I helped him run to the car. Once we got there I opened the backseat door and pushed Jack in and I went in after him.

"DRIVE DRIVE DRIVE DRIVE!" I shouted, buckling my seatbelt. Jack was doing the same. Rudy stepped on the gas and we went flying onto the highway. I could hear dogs barking behind us.

"Hey Jack. Who's your lady friend?" Rudy asked.

"Seriously Rudy?" Jack responded. After that nobody talked for a while. P

"Hey Rudy" I asked

"What do you want cupcake?"

"Do you have a first aid kit? A dog bit Jack's leg"

"Yeah. One second" while keeping his eye on the road he reached into the glove comparetment. He took it a red box. He handed it back to me.

"Thank you" I told him,"Jack, give me your leg"

"Ok. I'm gonna need a saw" he said sarcastically, while lifting his leg up off the floor

"Really?" I asked him

"Really."

I took off his shoe and roles up his pant leg. There was blood rolling all down his leg. I took a wipe and wiped up all the blood. Then I took some alcohol and dabbed it on the deep wound. He winced.

"I'm sorry Jack. I've gotta clean it, otherwise it'll get infected." He just nodded at me. I put some gauze over the cut, and taped it down. Then I took a bandage and wrapped it around his ankle. I rolled down hs pant leg as we pulled into a driveway. It looked like an everyday house. I helped Jack out of the car and into the house. I sat him down on the couch the Rudy pinned me against the wall.

"Ok who are you? Really? Are you a spy?"

"What are you talking about?!" I asked him.

"Rudy relax. She's with me" Jack told him. Rudy let go of me and walked out of the room. I sat down on the couch next to Jack. He out his arm around me.

"You ok?" I asked him. He nodded.

"My ankle hurts a little bit" he told me.

"No duh" I responded. He laughed.

"Hey you wanna watch one of my favorite movies?" He asked me.

"Sure why not" I said. Jack stood up and hobbled over to the pile of DVDs. He looked through the, until he found the one he was looking for. He put it in the DVD player, came back, and sat down next to me. We watched a few previews then the movie came on.

"Kung Fu Cop 77? Starring Bobby Wasabi?" I asked him. He gave me the "a yeah" nod. I shook my head and we continued watching. We had the volume all the way up. Then all of a sudden the door burst open and police officers burst in. I stood up, and helped Jack. Two officers grabbed him, and handcuffed him. He struggled but they dragged him outside. I ran out after him. Other officers tried to grab me, but I just shoved them off.

"Kimberly Crawford" an officer, it looked like the chief, asked me, "would you like to press charges?"

I met Jack's eyes. He was halfway down the lawn.

"No" I said.

"I would" I looked and saw Garrett getting out of one of the police cars.
