What it use to be(editing)

Chapter 6

The bell ring and I head to the one place I know Asher would be. The music room. I get there and he's sitting in a stool just waiting. Waiting for me. He gets up, grabs my hand and leads me out the music room door to the parking lot. Luckily I keep my keys and phone with me at all times but then again we have lockers so.

"We are we going?" I ask as he starts his Red Ford Fusion. "I don't know Locksley where do you want to go?" I shrug and he starts to drive. To nowhere I premuse but I have to make this clear "Asher I can't do this all the time. I have responsibilities and I just can't. My parents won't be to thrilled and I don't need to add to their stress. " he nods. "Didn't you leave your sketch book?" I gasp knowing I can't leave that. He smirks and pulls it out of back seat.

"Who?" "Kendra and she's using your extra key to drive herself home." I laugh at his smirks. I open up my sketch book and grab my pencil from the ridges. I start to work on this one mirrored picture. In the background is a woman who looks kinda like my mom but mostly just my imagination. Tears falling from her cheeks and a shatter mirror on top. I don't know where I got the idea but I'm happy I did since its turning out really well.

Asher stops a red light and turns on the radio 'Love me like you' by Ellie Goulding is on. He smiles and so do I. I look in the turning mirror on my side and the car behind us in this man. His windows are tinted so its hard to tell facial features but hes white for sure. He sits just looking at me but something about him makes me feel like I know him. Like he's been with me before... Then it hits me it's him...

"Asher step on the gas please." It's as if fate heard me because the light turns green and he push the pedal. "Lose the guy that's tailing us." He nods and starts to cross lanes in traffic. He's driving skills are crazy good and he's following my command without question.

We curve and swerve, honk horns and cut in front of people. We are doing everything we can to lose him but he won't stop so we stop. The next red light he's right beside us smirking. Asher saw him and saw how tense I was and I flicked him off. He held up a big sign on the passenger  side window that says 'The Time Will Come Reagan!' Then he ran the red light. I start to cry in fear but mostly angry.

Asher pulls over at a Walmart and hugs me. "Who was that and why?" He ask. I was about to speak in Italian which is something my family does when were upset by instinct. It's something about it that always calm is us down. "My Mom and I were poisoned. Thats why she was in the hospital and then my sister yesterday got sick and some sociopath did it. The person left some notes and crap. He's.... He's trying to kill my family I think and I don't even know who he is or if it's a he!" I explain crying harder than before.

He only hugs me tighter and tell me he will take me home. I nod and tell him my address. The ride to my house is quiet but a nice quiet. Once in the driveway he walks me to my door. He knocks because I too in shock I can't get my keys. Mom answers and Asher says "Hello Mrs.Locksley I'm Asher. Reagan got in some trouble. Some guy really freaked her out. I think he's the guy who's trying to harm you guys. Please don't be mad at her I begged her to tell me after she broke down crying after a guy held up a sign that said The time will come Reagan."

Mom nods and invites us in. Mom ends up guiding me to room and my guess is go downstairs to talk to Asher. I fall asleep with my school clothes on.
