Aliyah
-

Everyones looking at me, about 10 eyes on me waiting for me to move.
I look at laci who is still sipping on her red cup.
She raises her eybrow and laughs, my heart is still sinking and I begin to regret even coming even more.

I look at nick and he has his his hand over his knee smirking.

"So you going to grow some balls and do it newbie?"

He ask before a trail of laughter rises behind him.

He stands up and my body begins shaking, and I get light headed as he holds his hand out waiting for mine.

I take it and he holds me up, he fixes his black hoodie to go down his arms instead of being rolled up.

He looks cute.
Really, really cute.

We walk out of the room and I look at him as his eyes glare on me.

"What?"

I ask him with a concerm look.

"You're scared."
He says looking filled with slight empathy.

"No shit."
And I walk down the stairs as I hear his foot steps following me.

-
Am I really doing this?

No maybe he will just let me be like the get away driver.

Wait what the hell that's still bad Aliyah.

"Here."

He points at a black BMW and motions me to go on the other side.

He gets in and before I do I pray my ass won't get caught.

"Please I wont do it ever again. I swear just let me.."
I whisper with my eyes closed

"Are you for real? Get in newbie."

I get in and before he starts the car I look at him as he just stares off in space.

"Hello?"
I ask waving my hand infont of his face

He shakes a little and grabs my hand.
He stays there holding my hand and looks at me.

"Im just thinking about someone. Lets go"

He lets go of my and I feel cold again.
He shakes his head and starts the car.

"So.. what are we doing."
I ask him obviously aware but still checking.

"Stealing out of the crazy lady in down towns shop."

I look down and play with my fingers.
I can't do this.

"Where'd you come from?"
He ask playing with his brown goddly hair

"Connecticut. I lived with my dad."

He lifts an eyebrow and I can tell he's judging me.

"How the fuck did you get here then?"
He ask without even letting me finish

"This bus thing, but I ran away."

He smiles and looks at me before he quickly looks back at the road.

I start playing with my fingers again and he stays completely silent for 5 minutes.

"Where you from?"

"No time, we are here."

He stops the car and all of my anxiousness starts beating me.
I start to sweat and I look at my right to see a store less than 4 yards away.

This is it.

This chapter was shorter than me because the next one is when shit goess downn.
