Faster Than A Speeding Bullet: A Batman/Superman Love Story

Chapter 3

   KIANNA'S POV

  As Lois and I walked towards the parking lot, a limo pulled up in front of us. I just shook my head. I guess Bruce and Clark were done talking already. Bruce got out and leaned on one of the doors of the limo; Alfred was with him. Alfred sent me a smile, and I hugged him tightly. Alfred chuckled and returned the hug.
 
  I slowly pulled away from the hug and gave Alfred one more hug, then Bruce said,"Are you going to let the handsome gentleman take you home, or are you just going to stand there and look at him? Alfred, how rude can she be? Ki, I thought we were friends."

  I laughed, but I turned back to Lois and said to her,"I'll call you later. Trust me, I'll call you. I promise. I love you, Lois."

  Lois hugged me tightly saying,"I love you, too. Bye!!"

  I waved goodbye to Lois before I slid into the back of the limo with Bruce.

  I rested my head on Bruce's lap, and he scolded me saying,"Kianna, put on the seatbelt!!"

  I smirked and pinched Bruce's cheeks saying,"Aww, is Batman worried about me? Bruce, you're so cute."

  Bruce smiled, looking away, but then he narrowed his eyes at me. I sighed and sat up, putting on the seatbelt.
 
  Bruce said,"So, what's going on between you and Clark? You two were very nice to each other."

  My cheeks became really warm, but you couldn't really see me blushing since my cheeks were dark brown. Yes, we could blush, too. If anyone told you otherwise, they were wrong.
  Anyway, Bruce knew that I was blushing and just pushed me over. I pushed him back before it turned into a mini war. Alfred told us to stop, and I laughed, scooting away from Bruce.

  Once we arrived at my place, Bruce helped me out and stood with me in front of the limo. Bruce went to leave, but I wanted to ask him something.

  Bruce squeezed my hand and said,"What is it?"

  I facepalmed because I had already forgotten what I was going to ask Bruce.

  Bruce laughed at me, but he brushed my hair back from in front of my face,"Just call me whenever you remember what you were going to ask me, all right? I love you. Don't do anything dangerous. Ki, I'm watching you!!"

  I chuckled and said,"Love you, too, bestie!! Bye, Batman!! Bye, Alfred!!"

  Bruce winked at me and climbed into the limo, then Alfred sent me one last smile and drove off. After awkwardly standing at the very end of my driveway for two minutes, I turned around and looked to my right.
  When I looked to my right, I couldn't miss the rear door on the passenger side of my car that was wide open, so I quickly jogged over to the door.

  My smile immediately dropped when I just now noticed the black 2007 Ford Mustang GT 500 that was sitting beside my car in my driveway. He shouldn't be here! Why was he here?
  That would explain why my car door was left wide open like this, though. I shouldn't have given him the second set of keys to my car. I shouldn't have given him a key to my house either. I needed to stop giving people keys. That's what I needed to do.

  God, I've made so many dumb decisions already.

  I frowned and slammed my car door shut. I took a deep breath, secretly wishing that I would've just stayed with Bruce or Lois tonight. I walked inside quietly, shutting the front door behind me.

  My little sister ran down the stairs and yelled,"KIANNA, YOU'RE HERE!!"

  I tried to motion for Aliyah to stay quiet, but it was no use. I could already hear his footsteps getting closer and closer.

  I really didn't want to deal with him today.

  Wait, was he here watching my sister? My parents had probably asked him to look after her, and he just decided to bring her over here with him. I turned away from Aliyah, but I looked back only for a familiar pair of blue eyes to meet my brown eyes.

  He pulled me close saying,"Hey, baby. I missed you. Isn't that right, Aliyah?"

  Aliyah nodded and smiled up at me saying,"Yeah. Wanna watch a movie with me, Ki?"

  I went to say something, but Ryan put his hand on my back and said,"Kianna and I have to talk, first, Ali! We need some time alone."

  Aliyah pouted before I chuckled. I walked with Aliyah up the stairs and into the room that she liked to stay in (whenever she was here).
  Not even three minutes later, Aliyah was in bed asleep. I smiled and placed a kiss on her forehead before I made my way back down the stairs.

  When I made it to the last stair, Ryan immediately pulled me in for a kiss, but I didn't even try to return the kiss. I couldn't give Ryan the impression that I wanted him to be here. I didn't want that at all.

  I pulled away and said,"No, don't you have a tall, green-eyed brunette that you usually see around this time, Ry? Also, why did you call me "baby?" We broke up two months ago. You do remember that, right? I need my keys back, too."

  I moved out of Ryan's arms and walked into the kitchen. As I reached to get an apple, I was roughly pushed against the counter. Ryan blocked me in and sent me a smirk.

  He lifted my chin and said to me,"She didn't mean anything to me, Kianna. You did. You still do. Obviously, I care about you, Kianna. Think about it. I only cheated on you once a month. I didn't do it every week. That shows that I cared. Anyway, it's been two months, Ki. We should get back together now."

  I faked a smile and said through gritted teeth,"Aww, Ryan. You're such a charmer. You always know what NOT to say to a woman. I don't know why I thought it was a good idea to say yes to you."

  Ryan held my wrists and kissed me forcefully. For some stupid reason, I actually kissed him back and brought him closer. But when it hit me what I was allowing myself to do right now, I immediately pulled away and walked up to my bedroom.

  I rolled my eyes and said,"Give me my house key and the second set of keys to my car, Ryan. Then, you can leave."

  Ryan chuckled darkly and said,"What happens if I don't do any of those things?"

  I smirked and said,"I call the police. Maybe even Superman."

  I ran to grab my phone, but Ryan pulled me back and clasped my neck.

  I began to choke, and Ryan smirked saying,"Where's your hero now?"

  I heard a voice say,"Right here, and he's not very happy with you."
