The True Alpha

Chapter 10

Avery's POV

I got in the car and so did everyone else I then started it up before backing out of the driveway and then taking off down the road.

It was nothing but silence as we drove Riley sat up front with me while the twins sat in the second row and the boys sat in the far back. Time went by as we got further and further from my home before I knew we we were no longer even in the town anymore. We were on a long road that seemed like it could go on for hours the woods on both sides of it. It got darker and darker as time flew by Everyone was asleep except for me and Riley.

I could feel my eyes getting heavier but I forced them to stay open as I needed to keep my eyes on the road Riley must've have noticed how exhausted I was because she then offered to take over. "You should let me take the wheel you look tired" she said "No I'm fine" I said with a Yawn  she chuckled.

"Yeah that Yawn disagrees" she said with a smile

"Do you know how to drive?" I asked

"I'm familiar with it Yes" she said sarcastic and jokingly with a smile

"Ok I'll pull over" I said as I did just that I then got out of the car and we switched places me in the passenger seat and Riley in the drivers seat.  She started the car and before I knew it we were driving off once again I tired to stay awake still, a little afraid that she might drive us off a bridge and kill us but surprisingly she was doing well.

"You can relax now I'm not going to kill us" she said as if she read my mind  not knowing that my mind had already been eased when it came to that, now I was just afraid to go to sleep because of that accruing nightmare I always seem to have. The one we're I'm running and screaming. I was deep in thought when Riley's voice brought me out of it she looked at me for a split second with a worried look on her face "Something wrong?" She asked.

"Nothing I'm fine" I said

"You know you say that a lot" she said her eyes still fixed on the road 

"Say what?" I asked

"I'm fine" she said I went silent unsure of how to respond. She sighed

"The ones who's been hurt the most acts the best" she simply said

"Huh?" I questioned confused

"My dad told me that, in other words people who's felt the most pain puts on the best show" she explained I raised one stray eyebrow at her

"Like you for instincts you seem to have it all together better then anyone I know would've finding out the things that you found out today" she said

"Well that's not me I'm fine ok" I said she chuckled

"There goes them words again" she said I rolled my eyes

"Look if you were really fine you wouldn't say it so much it seems more like your trying to convince yourself not me" she said 

For some odd reasons it made sense everything she said it was like she reached into me. I know I keep saying I'm fine but the truth was I wasn't fine I was scared, confused, heartbroken, mainly a little hurt that my family had lied to me all these years but I didn't say that to them instead I just pretended that everything was fine as I didn't want my goodbye to consist of hurtful words and pissed off looks.

As I watched the road ahead in complete and utter silence my eyes got heavier and heavier till I just couldn't keep them open any longer before I new it sleep took over.
