Chapter four: the first assignment
Jack's PoV**
This is our first real assignment together. We are to find some kids that
escaped from The Labs. Two ten year olds somewhere on the east side of
a town called Morning Star. I get to drive the Convertible. Trista is in
the passenger seat, listening to a CD her Dad got her at a broken down
store that has been abounded for years, I think Strife attacked it. That
is how we get food and cloths for the Training Grounds. We take what is
left from places destroyed. That was the first thing we did when I first
joined up with Trista, looked for stuff. Then we got Jason (JC). Then Ron
insisted that we got "to know each other better". I did it to get
to know Trista better. She is so fine. God, I wish she was mine. I've known
her for three months and she drives my crazy. If I stare at her for too
long, JC gets mad. He barely knows her, but he is really protective of
her. I guess it is because he has so little family left. Any way, she is
listening to Vertical Horizon. She put it on a loop, so it will keep playing
the fourth song, "Best I Ever Had", its a good song I guess. She is asleep,
with seat belt off, her arms crossed leaning on the door of the car with
the windows down all the way. God, I wish she were mine....
JC's PoV**
He's staring
at her again. I don't want to say anything, I might scare him, he'll crash
the car and kill us all.... Damn. How am I going to get him stop, with
out waking up Trista? Poor girl, she hasn't slept all week, and its Friday.
She keeps having bad dreams about her mom, I asked Charlie, and he says
her mom died this week and her and dad are so close, her dad is really
messed up and its effecting her. I feel so sorry for, my parents are still
alive and fight like a married couple even tough they aren't. I think he
wants her, but he isn't going to get her. She is too innocent to be played
by him. Maybe if he was going to be serious with her and love her, it would
be different. Maybe it will. I bet she will love him and will change him
for the better.
Trista's PoV**
"umm...
Hay, Jack, what are you doing?" JC, it has to be there is nobody else.
"Whatever
the hell I want, whenever the hell I want", that's Jack, he is such a smart
ass. God, I love that about him....
"Jack,
your staring at my cousin".
" Brownie
points for you". Like I said, he's a smart ass, but he is cute....
" Stop
screwing around, I'm serious . Now what do you see in her any ways, that
you can't see in other girls?"
" Of course
your serious, you never loosen up. And in answer to your other question,
most other girls aren't Trista, and they can't think for them selves, they
talk too much, they worry about their hair and they were make-up".
"She probably would wear
make-up if she could"
Jack laughed. "That's all
you can say about her?" I think he pulled the car over.
"Well, what can you say about
her?", said JC a little embarrassed.
"Oh, lots of things, but
you probably wont approve". He laughed again.
"Try me", said Jason.
He got out of the car, because
I heard the door close. "I bet she would be great in bed" .I heard Jack
take off running, and JC jump out of the car and fallow him. I finally
opened my eyes and and got out of the car, walked around the car and sat
on top of the hood of the car, and waited for Jack, he was the first to
come ten minutes later.
"Hay, where did you go?",
I said as if I didn't know...
"Don't play. You know exactly
where I went, and now you know exactly how I feel about you." he kissed
me and get back in the car. He looked as if he was waiting fore someone.
fifteen minuets later, JC came back. and I fell asleep again....
"Let's play with her hair,"
said a girl. "No, better yet, let's put make-up on her!", said a little
boy. I looked up and it was day instead of night and two little kids were
setting beside me. JC was were I was and the batteries in my CD player
were out.
"I wouldn't do that", said
Jack with a smile. "She will get mad".
"How long was I out?" I asked
aloud.
"Two days and six hours."
said the girl, and I'm Sarah.
"And I'm Tommy", said the
boy.
"I'm Strong", said Jack.
"I'm Smart" said Jason, "and
you were out for five hours and thirty minutes".
"Oh". I said.
"Lets go home" said Jack.
He was acting like last night never happened. Maybe it didn't....
