The New Beginning

14. Tired of Trying

"Alright, I'm just really sorry.. I'm Kyle Carnel. Although, everyone calls me me KC." He explained as I got into the car. "And I do believe that we are almost in Raleigh California. Right on the edge actually; that's where I'm headed."
He shifts the car into drive with a smile. I try to process the information he's just given me. I'm a straight A student, but I just can't figure out how I left Omaha, Nebraska. All my friends, family, my things. Everything is left behind. "W-wait, are you sure we are in North Carolina?"
He furrows his brows and his smile falters. "Yes I'm sure. I've lived here for almost my whole life. Why do you ask?"
"This can't be. I don't understand. It just can't be. It can't be true," I whisper.
"What? I don't know what you mean, miss.. Ahem.." He hesitates. "I still haven't gotten your name.
"Oh y-yeah. I'm sorry. I'm- my name- uh- call me Carly.." I answer.
"You're cute," he says with a smile. "Your stutter is also adorable. But please, don't be nervous." His smile falters once again. "I'm here to help you. Now spill it."
"W-what?" I widen my eyes at his command.
He shakes his head at me a puts on a sad smile. "Carly, I didn't mean to sound rude, but you said you would tell me- we that you'd explain everything.. And I'm just curious as to why you're out in those woods.. Alone."
"Oh, uh well. I hope this doesn't make me sound crazy.. But," I sigh. "I think- wait- I know.. I've been kidnapped. I've always lived in Nebraska; I've never wanted to leave. But here I am States away.. I woke up in a room, strapped to a bed.." I stop and see the look on his face. He looks like he's trying not to laugh. I sigh and Lena forward putting my head in my hands. "Forget it. I knew you wouldn't believe me.." I begin to cry.
"Wait no- it's just- I'm sorry. I've never heard anything like this. I thought you were joking.." I feel a hand begin to rub my back. "I'm sorry.."
I turn towards the window wiping tears from my eyes, I hear him sigh. I lay my head against the window and watch the trees zoom past.
"It's fine, I guess. Can you just take me to the nearest police department and drop me off?"
"I can't just drop you off. It would be totally irresponsible. I have to tell them where I found you anyways, so they can find those damn kidnappers."
My head snaps towards his direction and I give him a funny look, "What?"
"You're crazy, you know that? Remember, you don't know where you are? So it'd be the right thing to do to help you out!"
"Ohh yeah," I mumble.
I look at him once more before I turn back to the window and look out. I can feel my eyes begin to droop from lack of sleep.
