"WHY DID I DO IT?!?!?" Rally was screaming her thoughts, anger overwhelming her tremendously at that point. It was the close of a less- than-perfect day in her eyes. "WHY THE HELL DID I LET HIM GET TO ME??!?" she sat on the edge of her bed, her brain revolting against her. You mean why did you finally let him get to you? Because you wanted him to… was the thought that circled after that. She shut her eyes, willing her weakness away: it didn't work though…it was still there.

Rally slid down to the ground, eyes wide as she struggled to keep her lunch down. She watched the burning twist of plastic and metal as the paint caught fire, sending small swirls of smoke into the air. The two cars were in a mangled heap, reminding her of what just happened. Why did he have to get away…why did he always have to get away? This drug her from her thoughts with a start. She looked up with a start towards the Corvette sitting nearby, the driver three steps away from the door. Rally jumped up and sprinted over, running into him in the process as she slammed him into the side of the car, hurting herself on the jacket in the process. He whirled on her, standing a foot over her height. "What the hell was that for?! In case you missed it, I just saved your sorry ass two minutes ago Vincent!!"

Rally's eyes darkened as she looked up at him. "It was your fucking fault I was there in the first place Bandit! Why the hell do you always have to 'get away', huh?! I'm curious since it just about killed me!!"

Now she was just pissing him off. He towered over her as one hand pulled the sunglasses from his face, the other hand tugging her chin up to his view as he leaned closer. "Because that's what I do. I will always be able to get away. Especially from you."

She continued to meet his eyes, his fingers not letting go of her chin as she looked up. All of that frustration was showing in deep blue eyes, showing she knew what he said was true, even if she would be the very last to admit it. Why did she continue to let everyone down…first her father, then herself. A single tear leaked out, trailing down her cheek as she thought of this, forgetting who was standing half a step away.

He looked down in surprise, even if he refused to show it. He didn't really want to hurt her: just rile her a little. His thumb brushed the tear away as he looked down at her. He abruptly let go and got into his car, not even sharing a backward glance with her as he started the car.



Author's Notes- Hi. ^^ Just a note or two…I've never made an effort to post a portion of a story without knowing exactly where its going: so, this is a first for me personally. ^^;; Hopefully it will work. I welcome reviews and such as I continue to add to this and edit my other little (that's an exaggeration) GSC series. ^^ Thanks!
