Corrupted. [Part II: On The Run]

Chapter Two: You Make Me Feel

CHAPTER TWO:

  I shut the door behind me and turn my head sharply. Everything in me, wants to tell Zayn that Louis overheard. I don't even have the chance to say anything, because I hear the door open, and hear him plop down in the backseat.

  I completely ignore him and just look forward.

  I pull down the visor and flip open the mirror. I look at the reflection and almost didn't recognize myself. I'm still not use to the blonde hair.

  I turn to the side and see a slight bruise on my face.. it's really not as bad as I thought, at all. By tomorrow I'm sure it won't even be noticeable.

  I lean back in the chair and see Louis staring at me in my peripheral vision, completely changing my mood.

  "Where's that Ipod at?" I ask wanting to drown myself with music and escape for a while. Zayn hands it to me and I thank him.

  I put the ear buds in, slightly grossed out that they were in someone else's ears, and turn it on. I scroll through it, hoping they have Justin Bieber... but they don't. They have every other pop artist except him. I don't even like pop, Justin is the only exception.

  This is Zayn's type of music... which I always thought was funny.

  Mr. Bad Boy, killer and drug dealer, listens to pop... he owns all these rock band t-shirts and doesn't even listen to them.

  I take the ipod out and put it in the cup holder. I'd rather drive in silence than listen to those songs.

"Jade?" I wake up to Zayn shaking me.

  I flutter my eyes open and see him leaned over me. "We stopped for gas. We're about to go eat and find somewhere to sleep." It takes me a moment to comprehend his words. I take a deep breath and stretch. My whole body is tired and just feeling like shit from staying in the car all day... I didn't even realize that I fell asleep.

  "What time is it?" I barely make out before I yawn.

  "Ten." I sigh from only being asleep for less than an hour. I'm extremely irritated and just want to go to sleep already.

  I look out the window and lights surround me. I focus my eyes and realize we're beside a gas station. "I can run in somewhere and get you guys food?" I turn around and see Louis, for a few minutes I forgot he was with us.

  I stare at him, slightly confused. I just don't understand him. He's a horny perv one minute, a complete outraged asshole the next, and yet he can also be somewhat nice. I just don't get it... he's fucking crazy.

  Zayn interrupts my thought and reaches in his backpack with all the money. "Here." He hands Louis two twenty dollar bills.

  "We'll drive around until we find somewhere to eat, and then you'll run in and get it." He drives the car down the main road. I look back and see the gas station we were stopped at, is the only store around.

  "Where are we?" I ask, hoping we're close to Georgia.

  "Tennessee." He replies picking up speed.

  Ten minutes pass and we start passing more and more fast food joints.

  "What about Bojangles?" I ask seeing the lite up orange sign.

  He pulls the car over in a spot away from the few cars already here. Only three in the parking lot. I look over at the inside and see it's completely empty. I guess the few cars here are the workers.
