A/N: Ok, here's the next chapter…enjoi!
Chris tackled Freddy to the ground and left Summer leaning against the wall, still breathing heavily. Andy walked right up to the bewildered Summer and grabbed her around the neck, pulled her back against him and put his gun to her head.
Freddy was fighting on the ground with Chris when Andy shouted.
'Get off him Jones,' Andy screamed. Freddy looked up, and stepped away from Chris. Chris also stared at Andy, except he was smiling.
'I knew it Jones, you'd do anything for your precious Summer,' Andy said and laughed. Summer was majorly pissed by this point. Freddy looked down.
'Don't hurt her, shot me again if you want, just don't hurt her,' Freddy said and looked right at Chris. They both laughed. Summer smirked. Freddy glanced at her. He was confused, but she just kept smirking.
Summer then whispered so that only And could hear her, 'See, that's where you're wrong. I don't need him to protect me,' and she drove her elbow into his stomach. Andy instantly let go of Summer and bent over. Freddy reacted by tackling Chris into the ground when he tried to go for the gun that had flown out of Andy's hand when Summer elbowed him.
While Freddy was trying to fight Chris with his one arm, Summer was on top of Andy so he couldn't get the gun. Andy tried to shove Summer off of him, and when he did, he leaped for the gun and aimed it right at Summer who was still on her back on the ground. Summer didn't move, but just looked up at her certain death.
'So, you really don't need him to protect you?' Andy said and started on the trigger. To Summer's luck, the gun stalled. All of a sudden, Freddy came flying out of nowhere and tackled Andy to the ground, soon followed by Chris. Summer jumped and ran over to where the three guys where fighting, grabbed the gun on the ground and aimed it at Chris.
'Chris, get off of him!' Summer screamed. Chris looked up from where he was hitting Freddy. She could see slight fear in his eyes.
'Summer, you know you can't win. There's two of us, and Freddy here isn't going to do much to stop us,' Chris said, kicking Freddy in the stomach. Freddy was on the ground, with a bloody nose and cut lip being held down by Andy. Summer screamed again.
'Touch him again Chris, and I SWEAR I will kill you!' She said. Chris knew she was serious. He slowly backed away from Freddy. Andy followed suit. Freddy slowly rose and stood next to Summer. Summer never took her eyes off of Chris and Andy.
'Put your hands on the wall, both of you. I swear I will kill you,' Summer said. Chris and Andy both did, and Summer and Freddy backed out of the room. When they closed and locked the door with Chris and Andy still inside, Summer grabbed the phone that was on the small table in the small room. Freddy had sat on the chair in the corner, his arm bent over his ribs. Summer quickly called the cops and told them what happened. When they asked where she was, Summer had no idea. She saw the door in the corner of the room and walked through, which opened up into Chris' room, and then Summer knew exactly where they were.
Once Summer hung up the phone, she walked over to Freddy, who was breathing heavily and wiping the blood from his nose. Summer hugged him, being careful of his ribs and arm.
'I'm so sorry. You were right,' Summer said into Freddy's neck, and a tear glistened down her cheek. She couldn't let go of him yet; she needed to know that he was there with her. Freddy wrapped his good arm around her waist.
'Tink, please don't be sorry. I didn't wanna be right. But we're ok now, don't worry about anything. The cops are on their way and Chris and Andy are both headed to jail, for sure,' Freddy said when he would feel her tears on his skin. Summer pulled away and helped Freddy stand up. Together they walked out of Chris' room and waited on the front porch for the cops.
When the cops arrived, Summer was still cleaning the blood from Freddy's lip. Summer told them where Andy and Chris were, and the cops headed down there. Freddy and Summer were sitting in the back of an ambulance, getting a final check to make sure they were ok, when the chief of police walked up to Summer.
'Miss Hathaway,' the chief started, 'uhh, there's no one in the room you described,' he said. Summer instantly turned pale. She could feel Freddy's arm around her shoulder, but she just couldn't say anything.
'There's gotta be a mistake, they've gotta be there,' Freddy said, standing up out of the ambulance. Summer was still sitting on the edge.
'They're not there, Mr. Jones, but we've got our men out right now searching the area for them. They couldn't have gone far.' Freddy thanked the man and shook his hand.
When the medic let Freddy and Summer go, the cops were still searching for the guys. The chief told them to stay together, since none of their parents were home. He also said the department would send them to a hotel room for the night so they could put surveillance on the two houses. Freddy and Summer would stay together in a two-bed hotel room for the night.
Summer and Freddy were each driven to their houses to collect the things they would need for the night. When they were done, they were driven to a hotel about 5 minutes away from their houses. Summer checked in before Freddy, so headed to the room and decided to wait for him. The cop that had driven her there told her that there was a cop who was staying in the joining room, so if there were any problems, to tell her.
Summer walked into the hotel room, which had two beds with a 2 nightstands between them. There was bathroom to the right of the beds and there was a large dresser with a television on top of it. Summer put her duffel bag on her bed and sat down. She lay down and decided to rest her eyes.
Within 10 minutes, Summer was asleep with her head at the foot of the bed. About 15 minutes later, Freddy unlocked the hotel room door and walked in. As soon as he saw Summer sleeping on her bed, Freddy tiptoed into the room and gently laid his bag on the floor near his bed. He walked over to where Summer was and knelt down by her head. His arm was in a fresh bandage and sling, and his lip was swollen and he had a black eye. He gently pulled the hair that hung in her face behind her ear.
Summer stirred when Freddy kissed her ear, 'Hey beautiful,' Freddy said when she opened her eyes. Summer sat up and smiled.
'Hi. Wow, I only wanted to rest my eyes. What time is it?' She asked. Freddy looked over at the clock. It was almost 10:30 pm.
'It's time to get some good sleep. Come on, let's go to bed,' Freddy said. After they put their PJ's on, Summer sat on her bed and faced Freddy, who was sitting on his bed. Freddy could tell she wanted to talk about something. He knew exactly what it was.
'You want to know if I would have gone all the way with you?' Freddy said. It was more like a statement than a question. Summer nodded. Freddy stood up and motioned for Summer to do the same. When she was standing in front of him, in a sweatshirt and boxers that Katie had bought her, he pulled her into a hug and held her tightly. Summer wrapped her arms around his waist and leaned her cheek against his shoulder. Freddy was wearing PJ pants and an AC/DC t-shirt.
'I would only go as far as you would let me,' Freddy said into her ear. He could feel Summer smile. 'I love you Tink, and I would never let anything bad ever, EVER, happen to you.' Summer could feel her throat clog with emotion again. She just wanted to breakdown, and have Freddy help her get herself back together. Summer pulled away from Freddy slightly so she could look at him.
'I love you too, McGee,' Summer said and lightly kissed his lips. Summer suddenly felt a bolt of happiness go through her body, and kissed him again, but didn't move her mouth away. She could feel Freddy smile against her mouth when he kissed her back. Freddy's hands were on her hips and her hands were around his neck. Before, it could get anymore serious, Freddy pulled his head back, but still held Summer close to him.
'I don't want to do this yet. I mean, I wanna make out with you of course, but not here. I don't want it to go any farther. You're not ready, and neither am I,' Freddy said. Summer smiled and nodded. She crossed her hands over her chest and leaned against Freddy's chest. After a couple minutes, Freddy pulled away and said they needed to get some sleep. They each crawled into their own bed and almost instantly fell asleep.
Summer was sitting on her bed when she heard the door knock. She walked over to the door. She thought Freddy may have forgotten his key. She unlocked the door and turned around to head over to her bed. She heard the door open and close. When she thought she heard Freddy breathing right behind her, she turned around. She was standing face to face with Chris.
Summer sat up in her bed. She was breathing hard and she was shaking. She looked over quickly at Freddy. He was still sleeping. Summer could feel herself shaking and her teeth were chattering.
'Summer, are you ok?' Freddy said groggily from the other bed. He sat up and turned on the light. He could see how pale Summer's face were tears down her cheeks. He was over on the edge of her bed in an instant. He put his hand to Summer's cheek, and her skin was cold. He pulled Summer against him.
'What happened?' Freddy said as Summer held on to him for dear life.
'I saw Chris. He's looking for us. He wants us dead,' Summer sobbed. She was still shaking.
'It's ok,' Freddy said and was rubbing her back with his good hand, 'I'm here, don't worry about anything. I'll protect you,' he said and tried pulling away. Summer didn't let go of him.
'Please don't leave,' Summer said and looked at him. Freddy nodded and pulled back Summer's blankets. He laid down on his back and pulled Summer against him. He pulled the blankets over both of them and whispered, 'I'll never leave you.' They both fell asleep within 10 minutes.
