"You where badass!" Spencer complimented me, as we walked out of the warehouse. This was so weird, everyone was so casual, even me! And, I have to admit I do feel pretty badass right now..

Now I really feel like I have some confidence.

We heard a buzzing noise. Louis reached in to his pocket, and pulled out his phone. He put the phone on speaker.

"Hello?"

"We see you.."

Everybody's eyes flashed up towards each other.

Everyone seemed to have known who it was, except of course me.. I guess, I'm still out of all of the secrets.

"Oh do you? Why are you cowering behind a phone? Why don't you and your boys just come out and shoot us then?" Louis spoke casually.

"You and I both know it's not that easy," I listened carefully to the persons voice. It was kind of soft, but at the same time rough. It had a particular creepiness to it. It also sounded a little British, kind of like Louis' accent.

"Besides, I see that you have some new recruits with you. I kind of thought you would want men to work with, not a weak looking teenage girl." All eyes fell on me. Obviously the person through the phone was referring to me. And, I felt a certain panic come to me.

"She's quit fit though,"

I shivered. What if it's like a 50 year old man saying that? Ew, gross.

But, the person didn't sound like a 50 year old man, he sounded kind of young, actually.

"She's probably going to be very easy to kill.."

"Stop it." Louis said suddenly.

"Oh, it seems that somebody has already grown protective over this girl. Hm, that just made it so much easier." I could just tell that this person was smirking over the phone.

Louis and chuck looked at each other. It looked like they where reading each others thoughts. Chuck then nodded his head, as if understanding Louis' thoughts.

Chuck pulled the other guys away from the phone. They started to load up there guns. I watched them as I stayed close to Louis.

"I'm leaving." Louis spoke bluntly.

"Fine go. Run as fast as you can away from us, but remember I can always run faster." And with that, the person hung up. Louis shoved the phone in to his back pocket. He started to scramble around like the rest of them.

"Where are we going?"

"To the boss. That was our plan to begin with," Chuck answered.

"And, Louis you are the one that has the diamond. You are the one that took this opportunity. If you screw this up, then you screw us all up. So don't screw up."

"Thanks chuck, thanks for the wise words.." Louis stated sarcastically.

I laughed to myself. My eyes wandered around. I was trying to see if I could look for those people that where watching us. Even though I know I couldn't... It's pitch black out!

All of a sudden I heard the engine of a car. Chuck and two of the other's where in a white mustang.

Spencer had his head practically in the car window, as he talked to chuck. Well, it seems like we're on the move again.

"Sooo, now what?"

Louis looked at me.

"Now we're running." He said seriously.

"Running from that guy?"

"Yup."

"Why?"

"Because, they want the diamond. It's a billion dollar diamond, and they're greedy people..."

"Well, why do we have the diamond? What good will it do for us?"

Louis sighed. He was obviously annoyed with me..

Well so-rr-yyy, it's not like I know what any of this mess is about.

"The diamond isn't ours it's our boss' diamond. We work for him. We use to have the diamond, until those guys took it from us, but then we took it back. Do you understand now?" Louis asked, annoyed.

"Yes." I lied. I didn't understand any of that..

"Okayy, so where is this boss?"

"Houston, and that's where we are going."

"Houston? As in Houston Texas?"

"Yeah."

I wanted to faint on the spot.

'I am not going all the way to Houston Texas! I am not going from California to Texas!

Nope, that is not happening. Just no. Not at all. No..'

"Come on it won't be that bad!"

...did I just say that out loud?

"We're going to drive and take a helicopter there.. It won't be that bad."

"Yeah we'll be doing all of that while running away from people that want to freaking kill us!" I spat, and then crossed my arms over my chest, and turned away from him.

"Aubree, calm down," Louis walked over to me. I could tell that he didn't no whether he should try to comfort me by touching me or not.

I advise him to not touch me.

"Everything is going to be just fine."

And, there it was. He started to rub circles on my back.

I was just to tired to even say anything anymore. Because, no matter what, I'm not getting out of this. So what's the point of arguing with Louis about this?.. I feel fatigued.

And, the night isn't even half way over.
