An Old Friend

2-D's POV:

"Get in, quick."

It was Russ. Without a moment of hesitation, I opened the car door and pushed (Y/n) inside, slamming the door as Russel pushed the gas petal. I looked out the window to see the crowd still standing there, watching as we made our getaway. (Y/n) and I leaned back, catching our breaths. Russel was silent as he continued to drive.

"Thank you, Russel. So much." (Y/n) acknowledged with a warm smile, something that still made my heart flutter.

Russel stopped at the red light and turned to (Y/n) and I. He looked upset as he gripped the steering wheel. He turned back around and continued to drive.

"I'm so disappointed in you, 'D." Russel noted in a low tone, shaking his head.

"Wha' did I do?" I whimpered, leaning forward.

"You could've gotten into a lot of trouble if I didn't pick you two up, you know how the press gets."

I sighed, glancing over at (Y/n).

"I'm sorry."

It was quiet, I wondered how Russel even found us in the first place. He had asked (Y/n) for directions to our apartment. We arrived in a matter of minutes.

"You wanna come inside, Russ? Maybe have a drink or some food? I haven't seen you in so long.." (Y/n) offered, unbuckling her seatbelt.

Russel shook his head, he gave her a slight smile.

"I'm fine, (Y/n), really." Russel insisted.

(Y/n) said goodbye and pulled him out of the drivers seat to give him a hug.

"Take care of yourself, and him. He needs someone like you." Russel smiled.

They both looked back at me, I could feel my face heat up as I was still in the car. I got out and gave Russel a hug too.

"Things are a little crazy right now, 'D. Murdoc's talking shit about all of us, making the media go insane. Be careful, especially with (Y/n) around." He advised.

I nodded, wrapping my arm around (Y/n)'s waist and bringing her to my side. Russel smiled one last time at us before getting into his car. (Y/n) ran up to him suddenly as he began to drive away.

"Will we ever see you again?" She asked sadly.

He shrugged, "Next time you two get into trouble maybe.." he laughed, another one of his forced laughs.

(Y/n) nodded, waving as he drove away into the darkness.

"Come on, love." I offered my hand out to her as I led her back inside.
