Life Saving: Chapter Two

Thanks to the two people that reviewed my story! I think i'm going to keep on going with this story because I have some great ideas for later on in the story!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Beverly looked at Hobie, Mitch, Cody and Matt. She didn't know what to say. If she told them then they would get hurt and if she didn't then she would have to deal with them by her self.

"I would rather not say right now…Can I talk to Hobie alone please?" Beverly asked.

"Sure, we'll be in the other room." Mitch said. He walked away with Cody and Matt.

"Let me ask you something before we go any father. What's your name?"

Beverly smiled. "It's Beverly…Beverly Turner."

"I like that name. As you know I'm Hobie Buchannon."

"Yes, I kind of got that when your dad said your name." Beverly sighed and took a deep breath. "About two weeks ago my brother died. That's who I've been living with since my parents died four years ago. My brother took care of me and now since he's gone, these guys have been following me and bothering me about something…My brother was in the wrong place at the wrong time, now if they don't get the money they want by tomorrow they'll kill me." Beverly explained herself to Hobie.

Hobie sat there in silence for a moment. "Well where are you staying?"

"Oh um…Anywhere really. I don't really go back to the house my brother and I lived…"

"Well how about you come stay with my dad and me for a while until we can get this thing with these guys straight."

"Oh no I couldn't."

"Why not?"

"I just don't think I should be asking you and your father to take care of me like this."

"I offered. You didn't ask."

Beverly smiled. "Okay."

"Okay, I'll be right back." Hobie said. He stood up and walked into the other room where his father and two friends were waiting.

"So what's the deal Hob?" Mitch asked.

Hobie explained Beverly's situation to them. "I offered for her to stay with us."

Mitch looked at Matt and Cody who were silent. Then he looked back at Hobie. "Okay. How about you take her home now? Maybe she needs some stuff from her house. Then bring her to our house and stay with her."

"Okay. I'll call you later." Hobie said walking out of the room.

"Mitch sounds like you have a plan." Cody said.

"I do. Listen up." Mitch said to them.

"So Hobie, why are you being so nice to me?" Beverly asked.

"Well. I help people. That's my job. Plus I love helping beautiful girls like you."

"I'm not beautiful." Beverly said turning her head and looking out the window.

"Don't kid yourself." Hobie said to her.

Hobie pulled up in the driveway of his house. He quickly got out and opened the door for Beverly. Then he grabbed a bag of hers.

"Thanks, I can carry my bag though."

"No I have it." Hobie said walking her up to the door and inside.

Beverly looked around the house. It was so pretty. She loved it.

"Nice house." Beverly said to him.

"Thanks. I've lived here since I was little."

"Wow…I don't think I've ever lived in one place for over two years."

Hobie didn't want to say anything on account of him feeling bad. "Well here I'll show you to your room." He said, trying to make things feel more comfortable.

"Okay." Beverly said following up the stairs. As they walked down the hallway Beverly noticed all the pictures of Hobie and his father, or Hobie with other people who worked at Baywatch.

"Wow, you seem to have a family right here huh?" Beverly asked as they entered the guest room.

"Yeah, kind of. I've know a lot of them since I was little." Hobie said setting her bag down on the bed.

Beverly sat down on the bed and looked around the room.
"Everything okay?" Hobie asked worried.

"Yeah, I just feel a little out of place."

"Well you shouldn't." Hobie said sitting next to her. "How about this…You and I go to dinner tonight."

"Oh no…I couldn't I can't have you spend your money on me…It's way nice of you and your father to let me stay here when you don't even know me."

"Well that's the thing. I'll get to know you and you can get to know me."

"Hobie I don't have anything to wear to dinner."

"No problem. Caroline and CJ get off of work in a few hours and I'll get them to help you out."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Please for me?" He asked putting on the cutest puppy face ever.

Beverly laughed. "How can I say no to a face like that?"

Hobie also laughed. "Great. I'll go call headquarters now and see if they can come by when they get off and help out."

"Okay."

Hobie smiled big and left the room. He was so happy that she agreed to go on a date with him. Even though he just met her he liked her a lot. He mostly like the way she was so polite and kind to everyone and everything. He couldn't imagine why the guys were chasing after her and being so cruel to her. He grabbed the phone from the kitchen and dialed the number for Baywatch headquarter.

"Baywatch headquarters, Newman speaking."

"Hey Newmie. It's Hobie, Is CJ or Caroline still around?"

"Yeah CJ is working the truck and Caroline is in Tower 11. Would you like me to connect you to her?"

"Yeah, Thanks."

"No problem." Newman said connecting the two phones and disconnecting himself from the conversation.

"Hello?" Caroline Holden said into her phone, keeping an eye on the beach and water.

"Hey Caroline. It's Hobie. Listen I was wondering if you and CJ would come by and help out my friend Beverly…I'm taking her out tonight and she needs something to wear. Probably some girl time would be good for her." He said to her.

"Sure. Is everything okay though?" she asked him.

Hobie explained everything to Caroline.

"Okay. Well we both get off about 4pm so we'll come by around 4:30 after we pick some things up from home, that work?"

"Yeah. See you then. Thanks a lot by the way."

"Sure thing." She said hanging up and walking back out to keep a better eye on everything.

Hobie hung up and smiled big again.

Please Review.

Preview for next Chapter:

"Beverly, are those the guys that were hurting you at the beach today?" Hobie asked trying not to point or stare.

Beverly nodded. "Yes. I think that we should leave. Please."

Hobie got up and grabbed her hand and walked out after paying for the meal. "Well we can head to the beach."

"I'm sorry Hobie."

"It's fine. I wanted to take you to the beach afterwards." Hobie said. He turned around and saw the guys running out of the

restaurant, and toward them."Come on!" He yelled, gripping her hand tighter and running through the streets toward the beach. "We can go to headquarters, there's bound to be someone there, if not i have the key." He said as they ran through the traffic on the street.

Chapter Three will be up by Friday Nov. 26. Enjoy.
