Enemies In Love ( A Max George FanFiction )

Lovin' London

* Chapter 6 *

 * Lovin’ London *

 * Bobby’s POV *

 I really hoped that we didn’t have to do much walking today, I hadn't really chosen the best shoes for doing excessive amounts of walking. But, as me and Max stepped out into the surprisingly warm winter day, I found that we had a chauffered car waiting for us. Max, being the "gentleman" he was, opened the car door for me.

"Miss."

He said gesturing to the door. I played along, curtsying while replying,

"Why thank yoy, kind Sir."

After we were in the car, he commented,

"You really have changed havn't you."

"Not - not really."

"Yes, you have. You always seemed to be a bitch when I used to know you."

"Yeah, but only around you."

"Why?"

"Because after - you know, I thought that it would make my life easier not to show my weakness around you so I - changed. But, like I said, only around you."

"Oh. Right. I never told you, but I'm really sorry about what I did to you. It was wrong. Anyway, lets just leave our past behind us and just enjot the present, yeah?"

"Ok."

I felt really guilty. He had apologized for playing me, doing the thing that had hurt me so long ago, and meanwhile the whole time I was playing him.

I was a despicable person.

It was then that the car stopped, we got out and I ound myself to be standing in Trafalger Square.

We walked up to one of the lions and it was then that I fel myself being lifted up off of my feet by Max.

"What are you doing?"

I asked giggleing.

"Well, since we're here, you have to have a photo on the lion don't you!"

That made me laugh even harder and, after a few moments, I was fully sat on the lion.

"Smile!"

I placed a cheesy smile on my face as a bright camera flash flickered not too far away and, before long, I was slipping off of the great bronze sculpture.

I had to admit, the sculpture was freezing! As I came around the lion to where Max was standing, I began to shiver.

Max sensed me shivering, nd enveloped me in a bear hug to warm me up. It smelt of his musky aftershave and I had to admit it was kind of ... nice to hug him.

I started to think that it was possible that I could be falling for him - again.

I didn't want to let it happen but at the same time, I couldn't stop it.

We spent a little time walking around the square before getting back in the car and heading off to our next destination.

As I got out, the first thing in my eyeline was a sign for the London Dungeons. 

Was he TRYING to scare me to death?

I just stood there. Openly staring at the enterance.

"Come on Bobby! Not scared are we?"

"No! Of course I'm not!"

Little did he know, my worst fear was killers. 

When I was little, I had a little sister. She was called Katie.

One night, Katie went missing.

She had been out with her best friend Alicia, but neither had come home.

Their bodys had been found a week later.

* Flashback *

*Katie's POV *

"Come on! Just take this turning! It's a shortcut! Don't you trust me?"

I did trust Alicia. It wwas just that it was dark, so I wanted to stick to the paths I knew.

But Alicia just kept pushing and pushing her point, until the point where it became too much to cope with, and so, I agreed.

"Fine! Lets just go this way then!"

So, we turned and began plodding down this dark, damp alleyway. 

As our footsteps echoed around us, I heard a creak. Then I felt the ground rushing up to meet me.

A sharp blow.

A scream next to me.

As I turned my head, I saw Alicia, her head lying detached from her body.

An evil laugh.

I knew I was next.

A slicing sound.

Pain.

Red.

Black.

*End of flashback *

*Bobby's POV*

It was dark.

So dark.

I felt my hands clam up.

I beagan shaking.

Movement to my left.

Nothing.

A scream as someone jumped out at us.

I shrieked.

Max laughed.

This was SO not funny.

More shocks.

More screams.

More horror.

Finally light.

Finally it ends.

"You look really pale Bobby, are you ok?"

"I'm fine!"

I said in what I hoped was a cheery voice.

"If you say so..."

"I do."

"Ok. Up next ... a trip to oxford street!"

"Really?"

"Really! Wow, it's really easy to please you girls isn't it!"

"Come on! Who dosn't love a bit of shopping?"

"Umm..."

"Don't answer that..."

"Ok, I won't. Ready to go?"

"As ready as I'll ever be!"

We hopped back into our car and began speeding along, until we hit trffic.

It was then that I felt the darkness try to consume me, and I willingly succumbed to it.

*Max's POV*

She looks so sweet when she's sleeping. She has a vulnerable look on her face, one that she would never allow herself to show anyone if she was awake. She hated to show weakness, but it would be good for her if she could just lean out and trust someone other then herself.

I would love it if she could trust me, but I knew that, given our past, she couldn't and maybe she wouldn't, not for a very long time.

Every time I see her, she manages to cheer me up, no matter what.

I really am falling for Bobby Stuart, I just hope that she feels the same about me.

And with that, the car slowed, and I began to gently nudge Bobby awake.
