Lucifer

42. The Incident

He didn't stand there long. Instead of walking closer to us like the last time, he left towards his car without a word. The first time he was very protective of me.

I have a weird feeling in my chest.

It's best he left because the first time he said something I did not want to anyone to know. However I haven't heard anything about it in the media or from any individual. So I guess Harrison is good at keeping his mouth shut or whoever he may have told it to is good at keeping their mouth shut.

I look back at Harrison and he's scrutinizing me.

I quickly look at his unlocked phone and type my number in the keypad section.

"Here. I've got to go" I hand his phone back to him and walk off.

"Sure. I'll call you" He says softly. I nod without looking behind me.

I get in the car which is already on. I look at Lucifer and he seems very calm. Why isn't he moving the car?

He stretch over the backseat and take something up. It's an envelope. He hand it to me and then drives off.

He hadn't said anything to me. He's being quiet.

"What's this?"

"Only one way to find out" I can sense an attitude in his tone. His expression is saying something else though. He looks calm. Is he upset that I was talking to Harrison?

I think he is.

I open the envelope, take out the paper then unfold it.

My heart starts racing, but eventually begins to settle back when I see... 'NEGATIVE'

This test is recent. It was from 2 days ago. He did an HIV test and others. He's negative for all other STDS too.

I can't explain the relief I'm feeling right now seeing this. I feel so happy.

"Thank you" I tell him. He's not responding. I think he's upset with me. But is it because of what I said earlier or because he saw me with Harrison?

Anytime I think we'll be on good grounds, something like this happens.

I don't like how careless he is. Why does he think it's alright to have people know we're having sex? I don't want to be in the media...Not like that. I haven't even told my best friend yet. I know it's my business but I prefer for her to hear it from me.

He's driving faster than he normally does, overtaking every vehicle he comes up on. This driving is kinda scaring me and I hate the look in his eyes.

"Slow down!" I yell. This is not even the way to his house. A stop light is up ahead. Is he going to run the red light? There are other vehicles up ahead that are slowing down. How is he going to stop on time going this fast?

"Lucifer stop!" His head flash towards me in surprise as if he just heard me after all this while. He quickly looks back at the road and hit the brakes. I can hear the car tires screaming for life as they are being forced to stop.

He's not going to stop on time. Shit we're going to crash into someone else's vehicle!

"Lucifer!"

I feel his arms across my chest bracing me back on my seat, I'm not in my seat belt. Shit and neither is he. He stretch his other hand out and suddenly I see a crystal clear wave in front of the windshield. It's at my window too, it's at his window as well. It seems to be around the entire vehicle.

He quickly grabs the wheel again still bracing me back on my seat, so his body is not fully upright.

The car jerks, causing me to bounce forward, but his strong arms prevents me from colliding with the windshield.
