Infinity / Rudypankow

17.

I pointed as me and Rudy walked through downtown Charleston, "aww, look at that baby!" I said pointing towards the puppy walking with it's owner, "I miss JJ." I said sad, "he's at home, we'll see him when we get back babe." Rudy said laughing, "yea, but he's my little baby." I said laughing along with him, "mmm, i already smell the food." Rudy said as we entered the restaurant, "I'm so hungry." I said as we all sat down in a booth.

"Hi! I'm Marcus, I'll be your waitress." The waiter said, I looked up from my menu. My heart dropped along with my face, Marcus. The guy that tied me down, that brought me my pain is standing infront of me.
"Oh, me and my girlfriend would like waters please." Rudy said taking me out of my thoughts, I stayed silent and let him Oder.
I couldn't help but notice an evil grin appearing on Marcus face tho, the same one that showed up when he was tieing my hands up.

"You ok" Rudy whispered, I nodded my head trying to have a good time.
"Here you go, Marcus is just taking a quick break. He will be back soon." Another guy came up, I looked up relieved just to see ceaser? We're they planning this?

"I have to go to the bathroom." I said in a shaky voice, Rudy scooted out of the seat for me so I could get by.
I quickly rushed to the bathroom, shutting the door as tears rolled down my face. Why are they here!?!
I decided to call my brother, he would know why. "Hello? Anthony!?!" I said as the phone picked up.

"Hello, who is this?" A voice echoed through the phone, "Maria? Who's this?" I said angrily, "Maria! Mami it's mark. We should recreate what we did that one night when you were 15" mark said I could here his smirk through the phone, I hanged up as quick as I could with my shaky hands and a blurry vision. I fell to the ground in tears, gosh this was supposed to be a good date, a double date!

The door handle shook, "someone is in here!" I said trying to make my voice sound normal, "princess it's me, can you open the door." Rudy's voice called out, I shakenly stood up and opened the door. Rudy's face dropped as he saw my tears, he entered the bathroom quickly locking the door. As soon as he turned around he brought me into a hug, no questions asked at all.
I stayed strong not a single tear fell form my face but I was still shaking, scared. "What's wrong, what happened." Rudy said looking at me in case I was hurt. "Rudy. There here, marcus, ceascer." I choked out, Rudy's jaw clenched. "Are you sure it's them?" He said, "yes! Rudy it's their faces I saw it clearly and they know it!" I said the feeling of denial rising in me as Rudy questioned me. "Ok, princess. Let's go we'll leave and find another place to eat at." He said wiping my tears.

"Rudy, what if they find were I live. They are with my brother." I said trembling, "they won't. Trust me they won't." He said as he helped me get back in my feet. "Stay to the side of me, I texted chase. They don't know anything just that here is a bad place to eat at. They have the car ready." Rudy said kissing my forehead, I hummed lightly confirming I was ok.
Rudy held my hand tightly as we walked out of the bathroom, "sir!" Marcus called out to Rudy following us.
Rudy turned around quickly, "we're leaving, get back to your job and leave us alone." Rudy said sternly before holding me by the waist and walking out.

"I'm glad we didn't eat their anyways." Madelyn said as we got into a cab.
"Yea" I said forcing a fake laughter, Rudy placed a reassuring hand on my thigh lightly rubbing it every so often.
"What restaurant did you pick?" Rudy said talking to chase, "Olive Garden. Madelyn's favorite and I love their bread sticks." Chase said making me giggle, "I like their salad." I said softly with a little smirk.
"We are here!" Chase exclaimed as we all got out of the car, "finally I'm starving." Rudy said, I giggled as I slipped my hand in between Rudy's as we walked in.

We all sat down, enjoying the food. Rudy and I shared chicken Alfredo pasta.
We all laughed as we walked home and I enjoyed the night better than how i did when it first started.
