Daphne's eyes narrowed at the crazed man next to her. "What?!"
Aurelio opened the sunroof and the wind whipped inside as he sped up. "Get up there and shoot their tires."
"You're crazy Aurelio. I can't do that." She turned around in her seat and saw a suspicious black car driving behind them. "What if they shoot back?!"
"Take the wheel." He said taking the gun without giving it a second thought. She leaned over and grabbed onto the steering wheel. Aurelio opened the window on his side and shot a few times. She was driving a bit recklessly seeing as though she couldn't aim very well, which caused Aurelio's bullets to miss the target.
"Give me the damn gun." Daphne grabbed it and bend on top of the middle console so she was balancing on her knees. Aurelio was stunned and grabbed onto the wheel.
Daphne lifted the gun on the roof and shot two shots of which one broke their mirror. She felt Aurelio's hand wrap around her inner thigh as she leaned against his shoulder for support. Her stomach contracted and she shot three more shots finally hitting a tire and sent the car spiralling off the road. She felt Aurelio give her thigh a squeeze and she felt as if she could melt right there.
Her celebratory was cut short as soon as a new car appeared. The same type of car as the first one.
"Shoot it." Aurelio said from inside the car.
She felt herself smile as she lifted the gun only to hear shots being fired back at her. She doged down into the car and looked at Aurelio. "If I die, I will haunt you for eternity."
"I would want nothing less." Aurelio gave her a playful smile and she rolled her eyes popping her head back out the sunroof, shooting a few more shots. She hated the fact that she was liking this new her way too much.
Then she saw the familiar Bugatti pull into the road and shoot the car so it tumbled off the road and crashed.
Two more cars turned onto the road and Daphne felt herself groan in frustration. She was no murderer and by shooting these cars, she didn't want to accidentally cause someone's death.
The Bugatti shot up the one car as the other one shot the Maybach they were in. Daphne went down into the car and handed the gun to Aurelio. "Reload it."
He did as she said and handed it back to her. "You're enjoying this." He stated looking at her while driving one twenty.
"Shut up." She said popping back out of the sunroof. She shot a few more times before the car's engine gave out smoke fumes and had to pull off the road. She fell back into the seat with a smile, wiping her hair from her face. The wind probably messed up Chiara's good work.
"Daphne, I want to fucking marry you again!" Aurelio said playfully putting his hand on her thigh. "Good job."
She found herself smiling like a child being proud of themselves and then her smile dropped. "I am never doing that again."
"You were born for this even if you don't see it yet." He removed his hand and put it back on the wheel and sped up to get home.
When they pulled into the garage and got out. Even though it was definitely not something she was doing again she did enjoy shooting out her rage that her parents caused her and she liked that Aurelio was proud of her.
She ran up to her puppies and started giving them kisses all over as they jumped over and onto her. "Hello my babies. Oh, how I missed you."
