While walking down the pavement, Lex asked " You're dirty, why don't you come to my place to freshen up? " Devon replied, " And why don't you come up with a better excuse to make me come to your house? " smirking.
" I'M NOT MAKING YOU COME TO MY HOUSE, you're dirty 'cause of me and, I owe you one " said Lex, flustered. " Sure, let me book a cab for us- " " No! ", Lex grabbed Devon's phone and cancelled the booking. While she was at it, Devon stared at his hand... " She...She did not just... " he thought, touching his hand with his other hand. " She just touched my freaking hand... " he thought.
" Here, I'll book a cab for us " said Lex, extending her hand to give him his phone. Devon looked at her and nodded while taking the phone from his hand. " Are you sick? Why are your cheeks red? " asked Lex, worried. " Ahaha, no, not at all. It's...It's, my friend likes to put makeup on me, guess the blush is acting up, heh " he said, laughing nervously.
Lex laughed nervously and took her phone out to book a cab. Devon turned his head to the opposite side of Lex and blushed, trying hard not to jump.
" There! It's booked! We just have to wait now " she said, in a great mood. After a few minutes, the car arrived, it was a little bit messy inside. Lex and Devon looked at each other suspiciously before entering the car. Lex sat at the back an Devon at the front. Once the got in, Lex didn't think too much of it, she was relaxed. But Devon on the other hand, was looking everywhere and checking everything.
Devon noticed that there were scratches and a piece of shirt with blood on it. And the scratches...they didn't look like an animal's...It was like, a human's...
Devon texted Lex,
D: Hey Lex, Something's up with this driver..
L: Why? What happened Devon?
D: There are HUMAN scratches everywhere and there's a piece of shirt with blood in it...I think we should get out, don't worry, I'll pay for the next cab.
L: How do you even know that?
D: Lex?! I'm a Detective?!
L: Ah...yeah. Okay then, lets get off.
After turning off the phone, Devon turned to the driver and told him, " I actually have to do business here so, we would like to get off, I will give you a tip too " " Ya have to do business here? " sid the driver.
Just then, Lex got a text saying, " Ma'am, I've arrived at the destination you gave me, you're not there...? "
"DEVON, THIS IS NOT THE DRIVER I BOOKED" lex screamed.
The Driver cracked an evil grin and wore a mask and turned on some kind of air, It quickly spread and Lex was scared. " NO NO NO, WHAT IS HAPPENING? DEVON? " screamed Lex, almost tearing up.
" Don't worry Lex, I'm with you, Nothing will happen to you " said Devon, in a calm voice.
" DoN't WoRrY lEx, i'm wItH yOu, NOTHInG wIlL HaPpEn To yOu mi mi mi, don't believe in yourself boy...no one's here to save you " said the driver, exiting the car.
Devon got very dizzy and before he could faint, he jumped to the back seat and held Lex's hand. " Hold on tight " he said. Lex held Devon's hands and nodded. They both looked at each other and eventually, Lex fainted. Devon, unable to see anything, slowly placed her head on his lap.
Then, he fainted too...
