W"Mom, I'm fine, nothing happened. I just ran into one of my classmates on my way out. Yeah - I know, I shouldn't have turned off my phone. Okay... m'kay. Bye." I said, rolling my eyes while ending the call. My mom (and brother) had flipped out when I didn't show back up. But it killed me how I couldn't even tell them the real reason why. What am I saying? I couldn't tell anybody! I just walked out of a ditch with some complete stranger who held a gun against my neck for goodness sake!

You keep saying that, but why haven't you gone to the police yet?

Because...

Because what? Because he's cute? Girl please.

Atleast he did one good thing!

Oh yeah? What's that?

He fixed up my cuts!

Yeah. Cuts that he caused.

My head started to hurt as I pondered.

Buzz... Buzz... B-

I almost jumped out of my skin when I felt my phone vibrate against my butt. It was only Jack.

Dont tell anyone about tonight.

Ok. Whatever you say

Im serious kim.

I hear ya

Kim...

Jack...

Kimberly.

...how you do know my full name?

That's not important right now, just promise me that u won't tell.

Jesus Christ, Jack. I wont.

By the time I texted him back, I should've been home by then, but I decided to take a walk around the neighborhood. I mean yeah, it was around midnight, and the neighborhood watch people probably thought that I was crazy, but I really needed this time to myself. As I walking, I got bored, so I pulled out my phone and started play Temple Run. The sound was turnt all the way up, but I still heard... an engine roaring?

An engine? As in a car? But it's like 12:30 in the morning.

No shit, genius.

I stopped in my tracks and looked behind me... nothing. I then decided to quicken my pace; I was not about to live one of those scary movies. I put my phone away and lifted up the hood of my hoodie, trying to go by unnoticed. Pssh, way to make yourself look suspicious, Kim. The sound got closer, so I decided to break into a full run, heading over to my house. As I rounded the corner, I was approached with a black SUV that slowly drove closer. It was so close to me that the rim ended up hitting my hip. It didn't hurt at all, but I felt the urge to scream. In anger. It hadn't been long but I could now recognize the car from a few feet away. I ran over to the drivers seat and tapped on the tinted window, gesturing for the driver to roll it down.

"Jack, what the hell are you doing here?!" I whispered yelled at him, trying to keep my voice down.

"I had to make sure you'd keep your word. You could've been on your way to the police station for all I know," He replied.

"How did you find me?" I was now leaning against the fully rolled down window with my arms folded.

"Check your phone again." I cautiously pulled out my phone and swipped through the screens. As I went to the last page, a new app caught my attention.

"You put a tracker on on my phone?!" This guy was seriously unbelievable. First, he kidnaps me after almost killing some guy over something that I don't know about, then he holds me hostage, and now, he had the nerve to put a tracker on my phone!

"You're unbelievable, you know that right?" I told him.

"Yeah, but girls dig it." He replied, winking an eye at me. I scoffed and rolled my eyes at his cockiness, backing away from the window.

"So how far do you live from here?" Jack randomly asked me.

"...Why?" I cautiously asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I just wanna make sure that you get home safe. It is pretty late," I looked around at my surroundings. He was right. I was alone by myself at 12 something am walking around.

"Uh, no thank you. I'll be fine." I said, turning down his offer and walking away. I pulled my hood back on my head and stuffed my hands in my pockets, continuing my walk. I knew Jack was following me in his car from a distance, but I tried to ignore it.

"You're not gonna leave me alone until I say 'yes', are you?" I asked him, still waking.

"Yep." He said from inside the vehicle. I bit my lip and stopped in my tracks.

"Whatever," I said, walking over to his passengers seat. I still wasn't that comfortable with him, so I managed to keep a distance and watched over myself carefully as I put on my seatbelt. As we drove around, I gave him the directions until we finally reached my house two-story house.

"Later, stranger." He said, unlocking the door and letting me out.

"Catch ya on the flip side," I replied, waving him off. When I finally reached the door, I pulled my house key out and unlocked it, only to be greeted by my mom.

"Oh there you are, Kimberly. Where were you?! Do you know how worried we were about you?" My mom asked, crushing me in a hug.

"And what happened to your face?" She asked, morphing my face by rubbing it, pinching my cheeks, and slightly touching my grazes. I tried to slip out of her grip and head upstairs.

"Nothing mom. I'm fine." I told her, walking up in the staircase.

"Okay, but we're talking about this in the morning!" Yeah, yeah. I thought, draining out her words by walking farther away. When I finally reached my room, I slammed the door and plopped down on my bed.

What. A. Night.

You said it, sister.

My head was starting to hurt again from thinking too much. There were so many questions that I had! Like 1. What was Jack and the other guy fighting about anyway? 2. How does Jack know my full name? and 3. Why does he seem so familiar... I decided to put the questions behind me for now so I could actually get some rest. But that didn't stop me from thinking about it. It only made me want to know him better...

Hey guys! Sorry it took so long for me to update - I wrote this story during the month I went back to school so... Yeah. But I'm back! Before I go on any further, I just wanna seal the deal. Emylova & I have agreed to let this story be continued only if I give full credit in each chapter. So remember: story inspiration was based upon the fanfic 'Demons' by Emylova. You should check it out if you want a story that'll keep you on the edge of your seat. (;Now that we've gotten that out of the way, lets head to the reviews. Someone asked how old are Jack and Kim supposed to be. Lol I kinda don't wanna say because it would kind of be a big detail in the next chapter, so lets just say that they're in the 16-18 age range. xD
