The best compared to the rest

More to find.

The cold wind howling outside is enough to make my teeth chatter. My hazy eyes scan the number of guards patrolling around , bright lights at every corner.

" I can't believe I let you barely talk me into this.Your location should be four floors up —in bed."

Kennedy simply shrugs to that , " Your curiosity deserves the blame."

"Tommy's not going to like —"

" My younger brother doesn't have a say in how or where I move to , Selena."

" I think he does. We are both wanted after all."I watch him as he contemplates with what car to pick at the lot.

" The S.U.V is still being fixed after the shooting incident." He states.

Looks more like a car shop than a parking lot..

" How about the red one." I chirp in , pointing to a convertible.

He traces my gaze then frowns ,
" No."

" What? , it's classy! , I know it's not the latest editi —"

He sighs , " You have a thing for convertibles?"

" ..That's a no , isn't it?"

" I'll give you the chance to choose another , This car doesn't move out. I'm not drivi—"

" This is my choice...and you're not driving . I am. ( A guard approaches us with keys ) .. hello , we'll take—"

" Dwain . No . "He randomly picks a key and walks over to the vehicle that beeps .

I follow him in , letting out a sigh of relief as he turns on the heater. " Erh..how about I drive , are you sure you can—"

"I can."

Gees..

I scoff , stuffing my hands in my sweater pockets as he drives into the main streets.

" Where are we going by the way?"

" Put on your seatbelt Selena ."He disapprovingly glances my way.

" It skipped my mind."I shyly smile , doing as told. " Now back to my question , where are we heading to ?"

" Alicia's flat."

" Wait what?"

He chuckles , hands on the coated steering wheel ," To be fair , it was your choice to tag along."

"Kennedy." I frown , "...I can't go with you."

His expression is playful now , clearly enjoying the look on my face." Why? "

"why?, why have me tag along when you were headed to her place?"

" I didn't think you'd have a problem with that , Selena. " He states.

"  It's not that. I just...you know what forget it."

" I'm not as thrilled to see her either but she said we needed to meet —something about 'a life or death situation ' and sounded off on the phone. "

Well I don't see how else she could have caught your attention..

I sigh. "I'll stay in the car whilst you have your life or death centered conversation with Alicia. She is not going to like the sight of me."

Neither will I.

" I don't think leaving you unsafe in my car just to have you crowd my mind while I'm with her is the best idea." He pulls up into a partially noisy neighborhood. " It won't take long."
