Levi's Protection

FOURTEEN

please comment what you think !! :))))

~~~~~

Everyone was loaded into Jasper's truck within a few hours. We packed light, everyone only had one bag. Amber and I were sprawled out in the back with a pillow and a blanket each. She wasn't as loud or annoying as I originally thought she would be, and I feel bad for judging her too soon. We chatted away about everything and the boys whispered to each other in the front.

Jasper was driving, much to Levi's objection. We'd been driving for a few hours, and everyone was starting to get hungry.

"Jasper," Amber groaned, glaring at him through the rear view mirror, "Willow and I are hungry."

"We'll stop at the next exit." Levi said, looking back at me, winking. I grinned back at him.

Pulling off the highway, the truck pulled into a little diner and we all hopped out, stretching.

Jasper went to Amber and kissed her on the forehead, slinging his arm around her shoulders. I smiled at them.

"My ass hurts from sitting so long." Levi groaned from behind me, resting his head on my left shoulder and snaking his arms around my waist.

"Me too." I agreed, reaching my hands up and placing them on his warm forearms.

He unwrapped his arms from around me and a big hand suddenly placed itself on my butt and squeezed, surprising me.

"Levi!" I yelled and jumped away, laughing.

He smirked at me, looking proud of himself, "Just trying to help. C'mon, let's go eat."

I couldn't help but laugh, loving this playful side of him.

Following him into the restaurant, I passed the windows facing the street, meeting the eye's of an cute old man who I smiled at.  The man smirked at me, sending chills down my spine. I hurried to stride next to Levi, and linked my arm with his. He smiled down at me, sending me a wink.

The four of us laughed and talked all throughout our meal. The diner was cute and the old lady who took our order was sweet and funny.  But throughout the meal I couldn't shake the feeling of being watched, and every time I looked over my shoulder the old man from before would hold my gaze until I looked away.

Levi noticed and whispered, "Willow, what's behind us that's so interesting?"

"That guy has been staring at me the whole time we've been here, it's starting to freak me out."

Levi turned around to look and scoffed, "Just a pedo.  Don't worry about it too much."  He shifted and slung his arm around my shoulder, shielding me from the mans view.

"Yo, lovebirds." Jasper interrupted, and I laughed nervously, "We better hit the road."

"I'll meet you guys in the car, I have to use the restroom." I slid out of the seat and headed into the bathroom.

After doing my business, I left the bathroom, and left the restaurant to go around the building to where we were parked.

Not looking where I was going, I slammed right into someone.

"Oh shit I'm sor-" I stopped when I looked up to see the old man from inside the restaurant.

He smirked at me, the same way he did before.
"Hello, I saw you in the restaurant." He looked down at me, "I know you saw me, too."  He winked and I backed away.

"Levi!" I shouted, I did not have a good feeling about this.

"Your little boyfriend can't hear you." The man took a step toward me, and in the same moment I turned to run.  I sprinted around the side of the building and around the other side, running as fast as I can to Jasper's car. Making it to the backdoor of the car, and flinging the door open, Amber immediately asks, "Willow,what took you so long?"

Not answering and moving to jump into the car, someone grabs my hair and pulls me back onto the pavement.

I hear Levi shout and he jumps out of the car. I'm pulled up off the ground and I turn to look, not surprised to see the man from before.

"Get your fucking hands off her." Levi growls out. He stalks towards me, muscles taught, making him look even bigger than he is.

Suddenly he stops, and his eyes widen.  I feel something cold against my neck and freeze.

"Another step and she dies."  I'm breathing hard, my body freezing with fear. How do things like this keep happening to me?

"What do you want?" Levi snarls out.

The old man laughs, "I want her."

"You and me both."  Levi looks into my eyes and nods.

I hear and loud clang, and the knife leaves my throat and the man drops, bringing me with him.

"Take that!" Amber giggles, standing with a garbage can lid in her hand, "Jasper did you see that?"

Levi rushes forward and scoops me up off the ground, "Jasper can you please get us the fuck out of here. Amber get in the front."

He climbs into the back seat, and I can't do anything but let him hoist me up. I'm still in shock and confused.

"Baby, are you okay?"  He murmurs, holding me against his body.

"Why the fuck does this always happen to me?"  I look up at him, cracking a smile.

"If only I knew." He laughs relived, and places a kiss on my forehead.
