Wrecked [CaKe Fanfic/Cara & Kendall]

Chapter 37

Cara's POV

I looked out of the window beside me, placing my elbow on the window case and leaning my head on my hand. The sun was bright with it's light softly touching the pavements but failing to burn them. I watched people pass by us as Kendall drove faster, leaving them in a blurry sight. I shifted my head to look towards the windscreen, I saw Kendall through my peripheral vision, she was uneasy, her hands were on the steering wheel holding it tight as if she would fly off if she hadn't held it that way. She let go of the steering wheel with one hand and wiped her hand on her jeans, they were sweating much to my concern. I was about to look back at the side window when I noticed that Kendall had took a glance at me. I looked back at her attempting to catch her.

"What?" I asked, hiding my knowledge of what was going on.

"N-nothing." Kendall mumbled, avoiding my eye contact.

"If you say so." I said, looking back at the side window, making a smirk crawl up my face.

I moved my hand on her leg and felt her flinch, which caused me to make a grin. I felt movement from her, and after a moment, I felt her arm brush on mine. She placed her hand on the gear and shifted it, before she could let go I moved my hand on top of hers and I swear I could hear her take a big gulp.

"I know what you're feeling Kenny." I spoke, not looking away from the window.

She didn't say a word. I knew she was definitely nervously aroused at this moment. I waited for a moment and spoke, "D'you want me to dri-"

"Yes please." Kendall cut me off, immediately coming up with an answer.

She parked the car on a corner and unbuckled her seatbelt, I did the same and crossed my leg over the driver's seat as Kendall stepped out of the car and walked around, opening the door and sitting back down beside me, closing the door. I slammed the door shut in the driver's seat and stepped on the gas as Kendall buckled her seatbelt.

"Cara, are you serious?"

"What do you mean?" I asked. "Driving? Yeah I am I know how to dr-"

"No stupid, you're not wearing your seatbelt!" Kendall pointed at the strap beside me.

"Oh." Then almost immediately, an idea came to my mind. "Yeah I am." I smirked.

"This isn't funny babe." Kendall said giving me a glare. "If you get into another accident causing you to go back to the hospital I wo-"

"Relax love." I spoke. "I won't get into another accident." I continued as I shifted the gear and turned left.

After a few minutes that passed Kendall was still staring at me. Here goes the master plan, this might work, I guess. Well I hope it would.

"Put on your seatbelt Cara, please." Kendall begged.

"Are you really this anxious about seatbelts and stuff?" I asked snickering.

"No! But babe!" Kendall was now annoyed, according to her tone. "I'm seriously getting out of this car if you do-"

"Do it for me." I spoke, poker faced.

"What?" Kendall asked, confused.

"Do it for me." I looked at Kendall this time, giving her a smirk.

"Are you fucking serious?" Kendall sat straight up looking at me while holding the dashboard.

"What?" I asked. "Come on Kenny please." I begged.

"You're a fucking asshole." Kendall spat while leaning back down on her seat and crossing her arms, looking out the window. Okay i'm dead she's pissed off. Oh. Shit.

I reached for her hand while I spoke, "Kenny i'm sor-"

"Don't." Kendall spat, moving away from my hand.

I looked back at the windscreen taking a hard swallow. I placed both my hands on top of the steering wheel, holding it tight. I then remembered, I reached over for the seatbelt and strapped it on. I continued to drive, eyes on the road. Damn you're such a conceited arsehole, my conscience flew through my brain. Well I agree, I should really stop making things flip the wrong way round just because of my cockiness. Just apologize to her for godsake. No, she'll just tell you not to all over again. Well if you don't say sorry this'll never end. Oh my god what is wrong with you, she'll just reject you. FUCK STOP! I snapped out of my thoughts and stepped on the breaks and the seatbelt stopped both me and Kendall from going straight through the windscreen.

I covered my face with my palms as I felt my eyes tearing up. Fucking depression. Kendall can't know.

"Cara!" Kendall unbuckled her seatbelt and moved closer to me. "What the fuck happened?!" She asked, worry coated around her voice.

"I-i'm alright." I said clearing my throat.

"No you aren't." Kendall spoke rubbing my back. "I'm sorry babe, I shouldn't have been so harsh. I was just wor-"

"It's not your fault." I said sniffling. "It's alright Kenny." I said, removing my palms from my face.

I avoided Kendall's eye contact and looked straight at the windscreen. Kendall just looked at me as I shifted the gear. I was about to step on the pedal until Kendall placed her hand on my thigh.

"Cara." I ignored her and continued to stare at the windscreen. "Look at me." Kendall spoke, cupping my jawbone with her hand.

I looked at her, my eyes teared up, her face was so close to me. I gave her a weary smile, hiding my secrets. I can't let her know.

She smiled back at me as I cupped her jawbone with one hand as the other rested on the steering wheel. She had a mix of lust and calm in her eyes right now, with the setting sun behind her. The orange light touching one side of her neck and cheek.

"It's not your fault." I repeated with a whisper as she leaned in.

She always made me calm, she was the lifeboat of my sinking ship.
