Amy's Pov
"Mommy, can we get ice cream before we go home?"
"Sure, we can get dad some too," I said getting our son back into his car seat.
I got into the driver seat and headed to the store.
"Are you going to help me pick something for dinner?" I asked as we stopped at a red light.
"Yeah! I want chicken nuggets!"
"I am sure daddy would love that when he get's done helping Uncle Ethan with the stream," I said laughing.
I turned the radio up and started to drive again, it is a little drive to the store but I don't mind it. I looked up into the rearview mirror and saw that the truck behind me was tailgating me. I sped up a little and so did he. Great, I turned down a road that I don't know hoping he would go straight. I looked back in the mirror and he was still there. I tried to go down a few more roads but he kept following me.
"Mommy, where are we?"
"I need to go a different way, we will be there soon. Put your headphones in and watch something on the tablet."
"I'll watch uncle Ethan's live stream."
I need to call Mark, I dialed him on the car phone.
"Hey I can't talk too much, how are you?" He was laughing.
"Not good, get off the camera ears are watching."
"What's wrong?" He was serious.
"Some asshole was tailgating me so I pulled down a road, I have no idea where it goes to get away from him. He followed us and still is following us."
"You sound scared."
"It's a big ass truck and I have no idea where we are, I see the main road up ahead but I don't know how far I wondered."
"Okay, Get on the main road and tell me what you see."
I sped up a little and so did he.
"Ugh, this is so UGH!" I said as I came to a stop sign, "As soon as I can I am flooring it."
"Be safe, please. Where is the little man?"
"Backseat, he is watching Ethan's stream."
"We are about to take a break."
"See if you can have them do something, I don't want him to know what is going on."
"I already texted him, where are you now?"
"Still on the street, it never fucking ends. Every time I speed up so does he."
"Can you see who it is?"
"It looks like a guy."
"Okay, how close are you to the main road?"
"I am coming up to it now." I stopped at the stop sign, "Okay, I am just going to go and not put a turn signal on." I stepped on the gas turning right, as I was turning the truck turned and sideswiped us.
"Hey! you asshole!" Our son screamed at the guy as I pulled over.
"Are you okay?" Mark was freaking.
"Yeah, Honey are you okay?" I looked back at him.
"Mommy, why did that asshole just hit us?"
"Where did you learn that...Mark?"
"In his defense, that guy is an asshole." Mark was trying not to laugh.
"We are okay, I am just shaken up a bit."
There was a knock on my window.
"Oh shoot." I said, "It's just a cop."
I rolled my window down.
"Hello," I said to him.
"Are you guys okay? I saw what happened."
"Yeah, that truck was following us for a long time, I called my husband he is on the car phone. I have no idea where we are."
"I have a car following him and they will get him for hitting you. How long was he following you for?"
"10 minutes-ish."
"Okay, how are you back there?" He looked at my son.
"That guy is an asshole!"
"Stop using that word! that is a bad word." I said looking back at him.
"I am so sorry for teaching him that, I didn't think he was listening," Mark said trying to cover the fact that he is laughing.
"Do you need medic help?" The officer asked me.
"No, how bad is the car?"
"Looks like you will need a little buff and some new paint."
The officer had us there for a little longer just to make sure we where okay, then let us on our way. I put Ethan's address in and drove to his house. It took about 45 minutes, wow where the hell did that road take me?
"There they are," Mark said as I pulled into the driveway, he opened my door to help me out but he pulled me into his arms. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, just a little shaken. I don't know who that was or why he did it."
Ethan came out with one of his cameras, " And here is Amy and their son after someone hit their car!" He showed them the damage.
"That person was an asshole!" Our son said as Tyler helped him out of the car.
"Where did he hear you say that?" I asked him.
"I was playing a game and I kept dying. I must have screamed it louder then I thought."
"Hey little man," Ethan pointed the camera to him.
"Hi, Uncle Ethan!"
"So, what word did daddy teach you that makes mommy mad when you said it?"
"Asshole!" He jumped up and down.
I shook my head still in Mark's arms, "How much will it cost to get the car fixed?" I asked.
"Not much, but I would rather spend all the money in the account to fix a car then too lose you two." He held me tight.
"Amy, your phone is going off," Tyler said handing it to me.
"Hello?" I put it on speaker.
"Hello, this is the officer Peterson, I just spoke to you and your son in the car."
"Yes, is everything okay?"
"We got the guy, he said he thought you were someone else and he wanted to scare them. As he was hitting the car that's when he saw your son in the car and realized he had the wrong person."
"So, instead of making sure we are okay he drove off?"
"Yeah."
"Thank you for calling me."
We ended the call.
"Stupid people," I said.
"No, he is an Asshole mommy."
