Looking After the Harrison Boys {Old version!}

LATHB : Chapter Four

Previously on “Looking after the Harrison Boys…”

I tore my concentration away from the lock to him who had a ‘are you serious’ look on his face but I looked passed it and growled at him, “If you want to live today and onwards, I suggest for you to--“

BOOM!

A loud sound erupted, making both of us flinch. We both broke our glares at each other and turned our heads to the right, the direction of where the sound was coming from.

“What the hell was that?” Zane whispered. 

“I don’t know but I think we should che—“

BOOM!

----------------

I flinched again at the volume of the sound and found out that the sound was a lot louder and more frightening than the first one.

What on Earth was that sound? I wondered to myself. With each passing second that passed as I sat there, staring out into the window, my stomach punched me, telling to me to hurry out of the car and get inside the house. Until finally I steered away from the window and faced towards Zane’s direction with my mouth opened.

What the heck?

I immediately snapped my mouth shut and let my eyes widen.  

Zane was no longer in the driver’s seat or even inside the car anymore!

My mind repeated ‘what the heck’ over and over again as I check all around the car to see if he was hiding from me.     

Now why would he hide away from you?

I thought for a minute and snorted.

Because he’s scared of me – duh, I sarcastically replied to my mind.

There’s not even enough space for him to hide anywhere in the car.

I then mentally slapped myself for thinking such a thing and decided to look at a different area – the windows.

As I looked out of the windows, I started to wonder how he actually left the car without me noticing but the wondering came to a stop when I saw a moving figure at the corner of my eyes. I snapped my head to my left and squinted my eyes at the person.

Yep, that’s him alright.   

I pulled the door handle of the car and pushed forward with great strength, expecting the door to immediately open, but instead of meeting the open fresh air, I met up with something solid and slammed right into it. Ow! I covered my hands over the sore area on my face and staggered backwards, hitting my back on the soft seats. I whimpered in pain and let out a whole heap of mumble jumbo words. When the pain finally subsided, I sat upright and glared at what hit me.   

…Huh?

The glare quickly changed to a confused stare when I saw that the door was still closed.

Didn’t I just open it a second ago?

Still confused as hell, I pulled the handle again and watch the door not open.    

“God damn it!” I cursed out loud angrily when I saw that the lock was still on lock mode. I flicked the lock to the side but it just automatically flicked right back.

I let out a bunch of swear words as I tried again and again but after getting the same results each and every time, I eventually gave up trying. I took a glance up at Zane and he was now vastly approaching towards a door that led into the house.
