Lust

11

I can't believe I hit bullseye.

I look out the window, he had been driving for almost an hour now. I was still processing the fact that I was right.

I didn't think that stalking to this level was possible. He had been stalking me ever since my first audition.

How did I not notice him back then, maybe I was too focused on the audition or the incident.

He had recently contacted Brittany, making a deal with her after she got hooked on the drugs I remember warning her against.

The drug dealer on the night of the party was after her because she didn't answer his calls so she had to go. He was Oscars man, who dealt with drugs to the celebrities.

He knew me because of Oscars apparent claim on me, Casper maintained his distance because of Oscars interest in me.

How messed up is all this and it doesn't end here.

The scene at the police station was staged- wait but I was shot. Thanks to Diego nothing had happened to me.

I turned to Oscar with a frown, "if you were interested in me then why did your guy shoot at me?"

Sudden breaks had me lurching forward but thanks to the seatbelt I was pulled back. I gasp as I hit my back against the seat hard.

"Who shot at you?"

I took a deep breath and looked at him in slight anger at the break. "What's wrong with you?" I asked as I shifted and got comfortable.

"Who tried to shoot you Talia" he asked in a low voice. He was looking at me so intensely that for a moment I forgot what he was talking about. I stuttered and looked away.

"Uh it was um some man who was dealing with Brittany, the one who supplied her drugs"

He got his phone out and dialed a number.

"Do you have something to confess?"

"Sorry boss I couldn't hear you-"

"I asked whether you had something to confess to me"

The silence was stressing me out. Was he talking to-

I gasped when I heard a gun shot.

Oscar hung up, his body was so calm almost making me believe that he wasn't bothered but his hand that held the steering was turning white from his grip.

"Oscar-" I have a death wish.

He turned to me and gave me a once over, "tell me what happened" i looked out of the car. I don't think it's a good idea to tell-

I felt a hand grip the back of my neck. He sternly but gently turned me to look at him. He gave me a look that said that he wasn't planning on being patient.

A knock on the window made us turn towards the driver's seat window.

Diego stood there with a frown on his face. I cocked my head at him in surprise. What is he-

Oscar moved his hand away and opened the door. Stepping out to talk to Diego. I got out in a hurry in case something starts.

A gangster and a cop.

I walked to them and they were sizing each other up. I would have laughed had it not been for the fact that both had their hands on the gun.

"Diego"

He turned to look at me and his facial expressions changed from suspicion to concern.

"Talia are you okay" he asked and moved to me, putting his hand on my shoulder. I nod.
