I quickly pulled out of his grasp stepping back slightly, Dylan outside Four mumbled his gaze landing on his brother before he turned around and walked out of the room followed shortly by Dylan, who sent a small wink in my direction before shutting the living room door leaving me alone.
After around ten minutes or so of me pacing the living room, walking up and down the door burst open revealing a more nervous and worried Dylan that I wasn’t used to seeing.
It’s go time, we leave in ten minutes. I just endured a ten minute it’s grilling about how I’m not meant to let you out of this house and out of my sight, at least I’ll be following one of his rules. Emily you have to know, your only going to be with you grandma for at the most a half an hour. I want to go in and out I can’t risk any longer. I may seem like a complete dick for doing this to my brother but trust me I owe your grandma Dylan rushed out placing his hand on his head as if he was regretting every agreeing to this.
I won’t tell him, if that’s what your scared of I mumbled pulling down the large hoody that covered my body down lower.
Scared of ? If he finds out I brought you out he will loose his shit, it doesn’t matter if I’m his brother or not I will be dead Dylan muttered.
He won’t find out I rushed out, I didn’t want him to change his mind.
You better hope not, now hurry get your shoes on before I change my mind we need to leave Dylan sighed before tuning around and pacing down the long hallway.
I quickly made my way towards my shoes, they were my converse that I worse since I was first brought here. I pulled them on adjusting the black legging that covered my legs that were a little big on me.
I stood up making my way towards a large mirror that hung on the wall taking in my appearance, not wearing makeup for this long had taking a good toll on my skin. I stared at my slightly redden cheeks from the warm air and freckles that only disappeared with the power of makeup. I sighed before tucking my hair behind my ears.
Emily come on Dylan’s voice called from the hallway.
I quickly made my way out of the living room following his voice until I reached him at the end of the hallway standing beside the elevator that I wouldn’t usually be aloud near.
I looked at his hand which he was holding out to me which was holding a grey piece of fabric.
Put this on He mumbled handing it over to me only for nee to see that it was a blindfold.
Don’t ask questions, I’ll just put it on you until we get into the car dont want you to see anything you shouldn’t He sighed taking it from my hands and placing it over my eyes quickly tying a knot at the back before I could really object.
Okay were five minutes away, We’re meeting in a mall. Your grandma knows not to try anything so you don’t either. You do realise how much I’m risking to bring you here so please don’t blow this for both of us. Four would- well I don’t want to know what he would do if he found out- Dylan ranted on his eyes fixed on the road ahead of him.
Calm down, Four would be the last person I would tell I mumbled interrupting him.
He’s not a monster you know-well not all the time at least. If you think he’s scary towards you, you wouldn’t want to see him towards anyone else. He just doesn’t want anything to happen to you which is why- Dylan sighed.
Which is why I can’t be out of his sight for more than ten minutes I sighed continuing his sentence.
I turned my gaze from him before roaming my eyes around the scenery. Around five minutes ago we were surrounded with trees and now we had entered a town like area, a few shops littered and I’m pretty sure I only seen one person.
I understand that he can be a prick but I’m sure it’s all for good reason. I mean I wouldn’t know what he feels I haven’t found my- He stopped trailing of slightly as he realised he messed up.
Found your what ? I asked furrowing my eyebrows.
His eyes left the ride for the first time in this twenty minute drive glancing over at me letting out a puff of air.
Nothing forget it, we are here He sighed as the car came to a quick stop causing me to jerk forward slightly.
Do you have a licence ? I asked unbuckling my belt, throughout the journey he had took many sharp turns, quick stops and has swore more times than I can remember which leads me to think who would ever give this guy a licence.
Mhhhm somewhat He mumbled quietly sending me a small smirk before he quickly exited the car slamming the door shut behind me.
I sighed following suit quickly closing the door behind me. The cold air hit me slightly as I’ve been inside for so long. I pulled the hoodie that hung off my body tighter around me.
It’s just down the block Dylan informed me stopping beside me for a moment as if to make sure I wasn’t going anywhere before he took in a fast steady walk.
What exactly was a block ?
I stared at the small building in front of me, it radiated boring and dullness as again a mere few people were walking in and out of it. They all looked like they were in a hurry and as soon as they set eyes on Dylan they looked away and walked the other way.
What exactly is a mall ? I questioned.
You’re so British it’s cute, It’s a building with loads of shops. Well supposed to be this is like a much shittier version Dylan explained a small smile gracing his lips.
In the past five minutes Dylan explained to me a few as what I described as ‘American words’. A block was like a street or something I can’t really remember. ‘Pants’ were in fact trousers not ‘underwear’ as he described it.
He pushed open the door open allowing me to entered first, since we have left the car I can tell he is on a much more higher alert. He looks at me every few seconds or so to make sure I’m here. He looks around also keeping his head down along with having his hood up.
To say ‘don’t judge a book by its cover’ is exactly what I did and it stand accurate. The inside was almost as dull and drab as the outside. The small ‘mall’ only held barley more than five shops from what I could see so far and maybe one cafe. In the main hallway stood two people, two males.
Dylan took of down the hallway keeping his head down but up enough to make sure I was following him. I looked around staring at the empty shops. There was a shop which sold birthday cards and balloons. A shop which sold some sort of jewellery and the next shop I set my gaze on had black windows so I couldn’t see inside however I doubt anyone was inside anyway it was called ammo.
I felt Dylan tug my arm slightly in the direction of the cafe before he came to a halt. I stared up at Dylan to find him faced with a man around mid twenties or so, I noticed him from the entryway a few minutes or so ago.
