On the Run

Chapter 11

AN: I'm just going to number the chapters from now on!! I don't want to give anything away ;)

"Shit" I hear Logan in the background shouting at Liz to give him the phone. "Hold on. Logan wants to talk to you"

"Wait no" It's too late.

"What's going on? Amy where are you?" his voice is calm and collected. 

"I need Liz Logan. Please", I plead. The tears are still streaming down my face.

"Drive to my house and then when you get there, you can talk to her"

"Logan" I shout "You have no idea what is happening! Give the god damn phone to Liz. NOW!" The line is silent. I have a feeling that I am going to have to go to his house. My heart is beating against my rib cage. I check my mirrors and I see a red car park. It looks just like the red car in the parking lot at the motel. 

"Fine. Give me directions" I pull out of the parking lot and follow his directions to his house. I park in the drive way and see Liz and Logan on the porch waiting for me. I get out of the car and run into Logan's arms.

"You're safe" he whispers in my ear as I hang onto him for dear life. "Let's get you inside" I nod my head and follow him inside. Liz closes the door behind us. She stands at the door looking out the glass searching for something. I have a feeling she is waiting for the red car to come by. She finally turns around and our eyes meet. She shakes her head no and starts to walk down the hallway after Logan. He hasn't given up just yet. So much for him leaving town for a while.

"Do you have my backpack?" I ask no one in particular. Liz freezes and turns pale.

"Yeah, it is in my room", Logan quickly replies. He walks towards his room with Liz and I on his heels.

"It's there", he points to it before turning on Xbox. Liz stands in the doorway watching me intensely as I open my backpack and pull out my chapstick.

"Can I talk to you?" 

"Sure" I follow her out of the room and into the kitchen.

"You have a gun?" she whispers.

"You would too if someone as dangerous as Him was after you", I whisper back.

"Thanks for telling me!" she whispers sarcastically. "OH GOD! You brought a gun into a store!" I cover her mouth with my hand, giving her a look. 

"Did you tell Logan anything about what is going on?" I ask. I don't want to drag him into this. It's not fair and I don't know how far Bruce is willing to go. And that scares me. I am putting my friend into danger and a guy that I just met in danger.

"No. But he deserves to know if you two are going to become an item."

"We aren't an item" I tell her, the heat rises to my cheeks.

"I see the way he look at you Amy and the way you look at him. Clearly there is something going on. And you rushed into his arms seeking for comfort. He deserves to know before it is too late"

She is right.

"Deserves to know what?", Logan asks making Liz and I jump. I realized that we stopped whispering and no one is home to mask our conversation. Liz gives me a look before heading down the hall to Logan's room.

"It's a long story", I tell him. As much as I hate to admit that Liz is right, I know that she is. I do have feeling for this blue beauty and he does deserve an answer before it is too late. I sit down at the kitchen table and he takes a seat across from me.

"Are you in some type of trouble Amy?" He wears a worried look and nod.

*******************************************************************************************************************

"Wow"

That's all he has to say?! I guess that is better than him telling me to get out of his house. 

"Yeah" I look down at my folded hands. I am too afraid to face him. As I told him everything, his face remained neutral, frowning a bit when I spoke of my parent's death and my time at the home. But now that he has taken it all in. Will he realize that he shouldn't be around a girl like me? That he deserves better? Someone who isn't putting his life in danger? The sound of his chair moving across the hardwood floor interrupts my thoughts. I look up and watch him walk around the table towards me. He pull me away from the table so he can stand in front of me. I look back down at my hands. I start to feel butterflies in my stomach. I'm scared and nervous about what he has to say.

"Amy" he kneels down in front of me.

"yeah"

His hands cup my face and raise it up to face his. My eyes met his and in this moment I feel safe. I know that he has accepted me for who I am.

I hear the sound of glass shattering and a sharp pain in left shoulder. I reach up to touch my shoulder and start to feel light headed. Logan's face is pale and he is mouthing my name. My vision starts to fade in and out. One moment Liz isn't there and the next she is. I hear Liz scream right before everything goes black.
