In Too Deep

chapter 4

The next morning was filled with the most stupidest and boring things ever.

I lay awake on the floor (so generous of them, right?) thinking about yesterday night's events. I wonder why Dominick started to stick up for me, saying i could fight and all... hmmm. I wonder what that was about. Something in my head kept telling me i didnt want to know.

Suddenly, i saw light flood into the room.

"Good morning Meg, have a good night’s sleep?" Jack asked. I noticed Dominick was with him. God. He followed Jack around like it was his job. But then again, maybe it was…

"It was alright. Although the floor isn’t  too comfortable."

He gave a slight chuckle, fixed his glasses and set down his clipboard.

"So, what crazy event we got going on today?" i asked.

"Uhh... just some tests and questionings." he replied.

Oh yay. You all know how i "looove" questions.

I followed Jack and Dominick into a room. It was a big room. Probably used for experiments and such, considering all the weird machines there were. Uh-oh. Only then did it hit me what Jack meant by "Tests".

 "What exactly do you want from me?" i asked Jack.

"Well we suspect-" Jack was cut off.

"We suspect that you've been spying on the Metal & Co. Base, and you wanted to find a way to stop us." Dominick said.

"But none of that is true! You had hurt other people in the forest and... and... i wanted to see what your motives were, and what you were doing." i chose my words carefully, keeping the lie alive that i never fought Dominick in the woods.

"I thought you said you were never in the woods? Hmm? And that you were always by your stupid old sister's side? HMM? " Just as i though he would say.

"I snuck away from Angela... And she is NOT stupid!" I started. I notice Jack scribbled something onto his clipboard. It was probably my sister's name.

“Why’d you sneak out?”

 "I snuck away..." i took a minuet to think. "Because i had hurt myself at school and i wanted some fresh air because i was cooped up in an extremly tiny room. And when i got to the woods, i saw you atacking a defenseless girl that didnt even do anything to you," i finished. Gosh. Angela must be wor-ied!

"Woah! You are a damn good liar!!" he said.

"Shut up! I am not lying! Why don't you believe me?!" i asked. Jack looked at us.... as if he enjoyed our "fight".

"It's beacuse I know the truth Meg."

I just stared at Dominick. What was he trying to do? Get me killed? Or have them enslave me or something? But, yes, then again, he worked for Metal & Co. Now it all makes sense.

“Umm, Jack, do you mind if I talk to Dominick alone?” I asked.

“That wasn’t in my plans for today, but alright…” Jack said. He left the room.

Me and Dominick were alone. Alone.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” I asked him.

“What? Is something wrong with sticking up for… friends?”

“Friends?!? You really think we are friends? After all, you have been trying to kill me! How could be possibly be friends? Tell me. I would love to know.”

“Well we can always try… ya know?” he said.

“Um, no, I don’t know.” I said. “what is your point?” I asked.

“my point is… it’s…well… umm, err… it’s…” he trailed off.

“Get to it!” I growled.  I was getting aggravated now.

“My point is… I think I am in love with you Megan.”
