Trouble

Chapter 7 - Lomar

I cursed under my breath as I rounded another unfamiliar corner. This one was worse than the last. And there was a dead end at the end that leads to what looks like an ally. Graffiti was everywhere. It was beautiful though, and if I wasn't in any hurry, I would get out and tale a closer look.

I stopped a few feet away and slam my hands into the steering wheel. I told Mr.Seawood I would be back to that hard ware store in an hour and I've already spent half of it driving around.

I looked at the windshield and notice four figures standing in the ally. I take my hand gun and and step out my car. Putting the gun in my waist band and avoid the three in the shadows and walk to the one standing off more to the side, like she didn't want to be there.

As I got closer I heard a females voice. "I don't know. I never seen him before,"

I take a quick look to the other three. Two standing, one sitting down. They don't look that dangerous. Two girls and a male. Brunette and black hair. The brunette had a grin on her face as she looked me up and down. She look easy to get in bed.... I'm in a hurry. The black hair just stood there. I couldn't see her face because her hair was shielding it, but it looked so out of place on her head. It didn't help that she was standing in the shadow, because when she did move it over, I still couldn't tell how she looked. Doesn't matter anyway. She stood with too much confidence. It scares me.

I now stood in front of the shy girl. And no I'm not going to hit on her. I just need to pick someone up tonight. Just to distract my mind. The brunette will do hopefully.

"Excuse me?" The girl looked up, her face turning red.

"Can you help me? I just moved here and I left to go to the hard ware, but now it seems that I can't find my way back home."

"Umm, the,... it's ... where are you. I mean, where do you live?"

"On Jackson. 1211th street." I gave her a friendly smile, I didn't want her to seem frightened.

"Hey Alex, isn't that where you live?"

I turned to the voice and realize it was the brunette speaking.

She black hair stepped out the shadows and I stared at her face. Her eyes where this light brown, not like mud, more like a cream, a chocolate brown. Beautiful wasn't enough for her. I couldn't stop staring.

"Yeah, I'll be able to take you. I heading home now."

I also couldn't stop smiling. Just a moment ago I was describing how threatening she looked in the shadow and now I notice she's probably barely 5 '3'.  It amazing how much confidence she's holding. In a way it still scares me. I need to keep my distance. Especially since she lives right across from me. Yeah, it's going to be hard.

"Thank you,"  I held out my hand,"I'm Lomar."

She looked down at my hand but didn't take it. I also looked down at my hand wondering if there was something wrong with it and saw that there were oil on my hands... oops.

"Alex" she says. Her voice doesn't match at all. It sounds.....weak?

"Sorry, I've been working." I apologize.

She nodded. I looked at my car and said," I can follow your car, if that's all right." When I looked back she was already walking towards the other direction.

Then she stopped and turn around, her strange hair turning with her. "Oh! I don't have a car,"

"That's all right, we can just ride in my car, give me the directions,"

I notice her hesitating. What was wrong? Then it hit me.

"I won't do anything, if that's what you are thinking."

She looked down "No of coarse not."

I head to my car and got in, noticing she was in the exact same spot, now turned to those other people, talking....

I looked at my watch and notice I have fifteen minutes. It doesn't even matter if I'm late since I'm the fucking customer, I just hate being late. I waited a couple more seconds then honked the horn.

She turned and scowl at me. I saw the brunette laugh.

She turned back around and the brunette said something else. So she's going to ignore me? I honked the horn again.

She started walking towards the car and I leaned over and open the door, to make a point. She walked to the passenger side and bent over to look at me.

"Now before I get in, let me let you in on a little secret. Honk that damn horn again, I'll break your fingers and stick them up your ass."

She is so hot.
