Accidental Partners in Crime

Chapter 10: Red the Blood of Angry Woman

Jack's POV

We left once we saw ourselves on the news. Well I left at least. I had to drag Sera out the door.

Greg gave us a ride to the mechanic that was holding "Mel". The car looked to be in pretty good shape (even though it never looked at all pleasing) and we went on the road. I didn't bother tying Seraphina up. I hate to admit it but listening to her being sarcastic and funny was better than the cold hard silence. I've had enough silence to last a lifetime.

Now, I was driving with Sera sleeping in the passenger seat beside me. Every now and then I sneak looks at her softly snoring figure. I smile to myself. She's so fucking adorable. I shake off the thought and shift my gaze back to the road.

For the rest of the night I keep looking over. I can't help it.

Seraphina's POV

Once I wake up a sharp pain spreads through my back making me wince.

Realizing I was awake Jack handed me a cup of coffee. I would have asked him where he got it but I really just didn't care. It was coffee.

I sip on it and moan. It has been too long my old friend. I look over at Jack who is intensely staring at me.

I stick my tongue out at him and take another sip.

I gazed out the window to see we were at a gasstation.

"I have to pee." The words left my mouth before I knew it and Jack just nodded.

I restate my sentence and he sighs through his nose, "There's a bathroom in there. But I can't let you go because there's a window in the bathroom you can escape from."

I groan, "Come on it's really have to go. I'm bursting at the seams with pee."

Jack sighed again and said, "Alright let's go."

I throw the door open and sprint for the bathroom. I mentally thank God that no one is in the single bathroom.

I lock the door and quickly pull down my pants and sit down.

I'm almost done reliving myself when I notice something on my under wear. "Not now."

Jack's POV

I pound on the door to the bathroom, "Sera, it's been over fifteen minutes. What are you doing?"

The door creeped open and Sera stuck her head out. She looked sickly pale and nervous.

"Why were you in there so long?" I asked and she blushed.

"Um uhhh."

"What's wrong, Sera?" I repeat actually concerned for her.

"Ummm Aunt Flow has come to visit."

"What?" What in the hell was she talking about?

She blushed deeper and said, "The fridge is leaking kollaid. I've fallen off the roof. It's time to pay the monthly bill."

I blankly stared at her. She sighed, "I'm on my period!"

Oh. Oh! I nod trying not to smile. I say, "I saw some feminine napkins and such in one aisle. I'll go get them and you stay here."

She bleekly nodded. At least she looked thankful. She closed the door and I walked over to the aisle.

I got a strange look from the checkout employee when I placed the tampons, pads and chocolate bar on the counter. Thankfully she doesn't ask me anything and just does her job.

I jog back over to the bathroom and knock on the door. "Sera it's me ... Jack."

The bathroom door swings open and I hand Sera the tampons and pads. She takes them quickly without meeting my eyes and slams the door.

After ten minutes the door opens again. Sera looks a little better and she says, "I'm okay now."

I smile and grab her hand. She is startled for a second but as I gently pull her to "Mel" She calms down.

Seraphina's POV

I had put on one of Lucy's underwear that she had given me. I was no longer bleeding on my pants. The only problem was the infuriating pain in my gut.

Womanhood was a bitch.

I draw my feet up on the chair so my knees were against my chest. The pain eased slightly. Slightly.

Jack abruptly said, "We're staying at a motel tonight. You need to sleep in a real bed."

I asked, "Aren't people following us? Should we stop?" I immediately regretted it.

Jack's jaw clenched and he said, "Don't remind me, Sera. Trust me I know. But you need to get some sleep in an actual bed tonight. Alright?"

I nod, "Alright."

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The room had two beds, a dresser, a TV and an adjoined bathroom.

I automaticly grabbed my tampons and went to take a shower. When I finished I got out of the shower, put on a new tampon and I noticed clothes on the counter.

It was a large tee shirt and boxers. They looked to be Jack's.

I looked between my dirty clothes and Jack's clean ones and sighed as I slide my feet into the boxers and put the shirt on that's hem went to my thigh just above the boxers.

I look back at the counter and under the tee shirt was a chocolate bar. I smiled and picked it up. I took the first bite as I walked out the bathroom.

Jack was already asleep. I climbed into bed and set the chocolate on the nightstand.

I hesitantly whisper, "Goodnight Jack."

Poor Sera. I think I would just fall over and bawl my eyes out of my skull.

Please tell me what you think!
