28 year old Lisa Davidson had a not so average life back at home. She wants an escape from her family and old life, and she will stop at no cost to get exactly that. She is a free spirit when she moves to Austin, Texas, the city of music and creativ...
Steven was carrying me so I motioned him to come closer to me.
I read his eyes. He was full of emotions: anger, concern, confusion. And they were hot heapings too, so I wanted to lighten up his mood.
He leaned in closer to my face. "Did I ever tell you how sexy you are when you are protective?" I said with a slight smile.
Steven smiled back at me and I knew that loosened him up a bit. He brought me up the elevator to Ruth's appartment, and before we could open, the door flung open and Ruth had a look of concern on her face.
"I'm fine really." They didn't believe me, and I didn't believe myself either.
Steven set me down in a chair a brought me a glass of water.
"What the fuck was that back there?!" He tried to control his temper.
"M..my..." I studdered, but tried my best to get words out. They were both looking at me and urging on more.
"My dad is after me. The 'My boss wants some sugar' is what my dad used to say to me before he would physically abuse me." my heart sank, relizing would I just said and how true it was.
They both stared at me, trying to find something to say, but just couldn't find it."Ruth I will catch you up on things later, but can I talk to Steven alone, if you don't mind?" Steven had a worried look in his eyes, Ruth nodded and left the room.
"S..Steven... I don't want to draw you into this. I..I don't want you took get hurt. You don't know what my dad is capable of, and I can't loose anyone else. P..please Steven-" I was stopped
"You will not loose me baby. I am with you from the beginning to end. 35 years I spent looking looking for someone like you baby, and I will not let you go. I'm with you. I promise. No one will hurt you." Steven gave me a reassuring look and I nodded. Just then, I felt the blood rushing to my body, and I knew what that feeling was. Trust. That did not happen a lot to me. I barely trust anyone, but Steven would protect me. I did not have to be scared anymore. I got up and gave Steven the biggest hug I was capable of.
Steven started "Baby, now that we have a different situation on our hands, I think it would be best if you lived with me. After all, I can't take an eye off of you." He gave me a wink, and I nearly choked on my water.
I gave him an irresistible smile "I guess you are right. I might just have to live with you." We laughed.
"Now that's what I'm talking about baby!" Steven gave me a protective, reassuring kiss. I could see all of his concern left from his shoulders, though he still held on to that anger from what my dad had done to me.
"I'll be back. I need to go fill-in Ruth." I gave Steven was last kiss then walked to Ruth's bedroom.
She had been oddly quite, and I didn't know what had gotten into her. She was definitely hiding something. I opened the door and disrupted her thoughts.
I told her about everything that happened starting with the cabin, the confrontment of the guard, and lastly that I was moving in with Steven.
She looked at me and said," Honey that is great! Joe asked me to move in with him, which ment the apartment and rent would be all yours, so I have been thinking all day on a way to let you know! This is perfect! I am so excited!" She gave me a huge hug.
"Aww good! I am so happy for you two!" I said then continued
"Yea I am excited too, but things just took a major turn. My dad is looking for and just about found me. He could show up in town at any moment." I sighed at the realization that my father could be in town.
"I know baby, but we are all here for you. Steven, me, Joe, and even the band, though they haven't quite met you yet..." I nodded and gave her a hug then went to my bedroom to pack up my things.
"Oh one more thing Lisa." Ruth had an odd mischievous smile on her face. Oh dear, last time she wore that smile she told me that she got drunk and was stuck at a bar. I laughed and followed her.
She took me outside to the street curb. Just then I felt strong hands wrap around my waist. I jumped and turned around to see Steven with a cute Cheshire Cat smile on his face.
"Shit you scared me!" I said. He laughed.
Ruth pulled a tarp off the big object that was in front of me on the street. And long be hold! My new car!! I never got one beacuse my dad would never let me get one.
"We figured you would need this. It was Steven's idea." Ruth said
Steven looked at me and said "It is a red Corvette Stingray Convertible! Do you like it babe?"
I was so excited. Those cars had a high horsepower. I could go pretty dang fast in that car.
I gasped and put my hands over my mouth "I LOVE IT! How did y'all know?!!" Steven winked at me and I gave Ruth a huge hug. Ruth gave me the keys to my new car.
