AN: Well, as they deal with their growing feelings for each other, they soon forget that they are being pursued, but don't worry, they are going to get a reminder...

Chapter Six: Now We Run, AGAIN

Alex couldn't sleep. She was just staring into the darkness of the room, trying to get a grasp on her thoughts. About two days earlier, she was kidnapped and taken into New Jersey by someone who knew both of their families in the past. Then out of nowhere, David saved her, and they ended up here, but there were a lot of questions that needed to be answered.

One, something, not someone, grabbed Alex, and saved her. There was no way that it was David, she would have known if it was him, but somehow, she ended up in his arms and company that fateful day.

Two. David was shot in the head. Alex saw that first hand, and now he was here, no wound at all in his head. That meant that either he could heal from anything, or he was not a human.

Alex sighed and looked over at her friend, who was sleeping peacefully. No matter what was going on, he could always sleep like a champion. Alex let a smile cross her face, and ran a hand through his hair, and over his face, gracefully.

I wonder what he is dreaming about. Alex asked in her mind. She let out a yawn, but got a shock when David wrapped one of his arms around her, and pulled her close to himself.

Alex didn't know what to do at this point, but it felt like she was used to this comfort. She couldn't help but to smile, and soon enough, she fell asleep, right in David's arms.

David was sound asleep, but he managed to pop awake for a few moments, and he was glad that he did. He looked up, and saw that Alex was standing above him, wearing only his t-shirt. He was kind of out of it from just waking up and still under the influence of sleep, but he did see Alex lean in towards his face, and he sure did feel her soft lips on his.

David knew that he was dreaming at that point, because there was no way that Alex Russo would kiss him, under any circumstance. They were only friends, and she didn't want to be anything more than just friends. David knew that she wouldn't want to be his girlfriend. That thought didn't leave his sleepy mind, because this was something that he was going to be thinking about for a while, and with everything that was going on, would Alex feel the same way about him?

Only the future can tell...

"Shit!"

That loud noise coming from her friend, that, and him slamming the door behind him jolted Alex out of her sleep. She looked towards David, who was cautiously looking out the window behind him.

"What's going on?" Alex asked, trying to wipe the remaining sleep from her eyes.

"They found us." David said. "Merlin and his goons found us. Time to leave, my girlfriend!"

"What?" Alex screamed. She jumped out of the bed, tossing off the shirt that David gave her. He pulled on his jeans, shoes, and his t-shirt. Alex slipped back on her skirt, her shoes and David's hoodie. She looked towards her friend, who was looking out the window again.

"Let's go." David whispered, grabbing her wrist, and pulling her out the room. David and Alex slowly made their way to their car. They saw some guys right at the car, but someone called out to them, and the guys made their way to the room that they just left. David saw that the car that they were just in was open. Then a smile crossed his face.

"Let's go." David said, grabbing Alex's wrist again, and getting in the car, and they drove off as they began to realize what had just happened.

"David, that was awesome!" Alex smiled, leaning over, and kissing him again.

"Well, I always do my best when I am around you." David said again.

"That's sweet." Alex said, messing his hair. David saw a sign as they were driving, which said that New York City was only 30 miles away, which made him glad. That meant that they were almost home, but what was going to happen between the two of them once they got there?

Alex and David stopped at a gas station to fill up, David soon came in to pay, and get some things for the road. Then he realized that Alex was behind him.

"Yes?" David asked her.

"David, I was wondering something." Alex said, a concerned look on her face.

"What? What's on your mind?" David asked, his full attention on his friend.

"If we get back safely, what is going to happen between us in the future?" Alex asked him. "What I want to know is what is going to change between us?"

"After what we have been through, there is no way that things are going to be the same." David said. "On the other hand, that can be a good thing, because being the same all of the time can get boring."

"No, what I meant was in your future, am I in it?" Alex asked him, but she looked at the ground while asking that, which made David all the more nervous.

"Alex, you have been in my life from the beginning, and you got me through some really tough times. I really am grateful for everything that you did for me." David said, pulling her close, and kissing her forehead.

"Thanks." Alex said. Some how, what he said, he managed to make her feel better, given their current position of their situation.

He was at a crossroads, David was. On one side, their was his friendship with Alex that he had and cherished. They have been friends for a long time, and he didn't want to lose that for anything. But on the other hand, their was something nagging at the back of his mind that made him think, should he try something with her, as more than friends? Then the all important question popped into his mind.

David Falcone, are you in love with Alex Russo? He sat there for a minute, and thought about it, then the answer hit him like a ton of bricks.

"Yes. I can't believe that I am saying this, but I am in love with my best friend..."
