Bittersweet Notions of Forever

Chapter 34: Highway

Soo Hyuk sped off to the highway, and placed both hands on the steering wheel. You gazed out on the passing cars that disappeared.

Soo Hyuk drove fast and you passed by the cars on the highway like a lighting. His car was faster than a lot of the cars on the road.

You furrowed your brows, when you saw him speed up more, and he passed the speeding limit. Something felt wrong, and your body instinctively tensed up.

"Soo Hyuk slow down." You said firmly, as you glanced at the speedometer and saw how the numbers increased rapidly.

"I can't." He said sternly with furrowed brows, and gripped the steering wheel.

"Why?" You asked surprised, and your eyes widened as you stared at him bewildered.

Soo Hyuk glanced into the rearview mirror, and he furrowed his brows and clenched his jaw. "Some idiot isn't keeping his distance."

You turned around and saw a black matte car, and the driver wore shades and a black cap. You couldn't see who it was from the distance, but Soo Hyuk was right. He sped up purposely, and you tensed up in your seat.

"What the hell is that jerk doing." You mouthed deeply.

Soo Hyuk stole a glance at you, and grinned, when he saw you get riled up. "Easy now." He chuckled with a smirk. You pursed your lips, and leaned back into your seat.

He snickered and stole a glance at the man in the car behind the pair of you. "Don't race, we are on a highway." You warned him and he gazed back at you, and gave you an empty look.

"Don't worry, kitten. You are safe with me." He grinned and you froze, at the mischievousness in his words. His grin always made your heart pound deeper.

As cheesy as his line sounded, it still made you feel giddy inside, and you pursed your lips to hide your grin. However, you shook your head and laughed aloud at his comment.

Soo Hyuk turned his attention back to the road and stepped on the speeder. You squealed startled and your body instinctively pushed into the seat, and you grabbed onto your seatbelt.

Soo Hyuk was quickly far from the driver behind you, and he switched lanes. He dodged off from the driver and you stared back at Soo Hyuk.

However, much to your surprise the person behind you switched to your lane, and managed to get behind Soo Hyuk's car.

You began to feel uneasy, and your heart pounded against your chest. Something seemed off, and not right. That person still followed you, and it no longer looked like a game, but he was targeting the pair of you.

"Soo Hyuk?" You said quietly. 

You glanced at Soo Hyuk to tell him that the man was following you. But it seemed like he had already noticed that, as his jaw was clenched together and his brows knitted in anger.

"He's following us." You finally said aloud, and he met your gaze instantly. He breathed out in a heavy tone, "I know."

Soo Hyuk seemed to be just as clueless as you were, and you wondered who that man was, and why he followed you.

"Who is he?" You asked.

"I have too many enemies to know that." He purred deeply and he sounded agitated by it.

"Sit back, this is no longer a stupid game." He ordered.

"Why, what are you going to do?" You asked, and you tried to not sound panicked, but the situation was out of hand.
