Try Me (Drunk In Love #1)

Chapter Forty One

"Hey, can you put some music on? Maybe this Weeknd guy songs." I say to Abel's driver. He chuckles and put on Earned It. I sit back, enjoying the empty roads and amazing music. It's quite late at night and only thing I wanna do is sleep.

"Weeknd guy huh?" Abel asks sarcastically.
"Yeah. I've gotten really into his songs. Wierd name though, The Weeknd." I smirk.
He doesn't say anything, but I can see him hiding his smile.

"He also has you know,-" I gesture on my head. "the hair."
"Pineapple head." We both say in unison.

He fakes offended and I burst out laughing. He looks so done with me but it was quite funny. Suddenly he pulls me to him, making my laughter stop. The way he looking at me I swear I feel things what I didn't know I should be feeling. His face looks magical, half in shadow and the other half glowing in moonlight. Naturally, I tilt my face up wanting his lips on mine.

He holds my hair as he kisses me urgently, I can feel he wants to be inside me and now I want it too.

We are interrupted by Monroe, his driver.

"Abel, we have a problem. That car been following us since we left the church." He informs us. I look behind us alarmed. But Abel remains calm, like he knew this was gonna happen.

"Monroe, step on it. You know what to do." He instructs him, but I feel like he is talking about something else.

"Why would someone follow you?" I ask, panic evident in my voice. He looks over me then pull my hand in his.

"It's okay Kia. Just some crazy fan or a obsessed reporter trying to catch a picture." He assures me. Although I don't believe what he just said to me, I keep my mouth shut.

"I need y'all to brace yourselves. This gonna get speedy." Monroe notifies us. We put on our seat belts, and Monroe takes a sharp left turn. I grab the seat in front of me to keep my head from hitting the window.

"This doesn't lead to Hills."I say referring to Abel's house.

"Yeah. I wanna throw him off our trail. Can't have him following us home." Monroe explains to me.

We sit in silence as the car speeds on the highway leading downtown. We pull on a deserted road, throwing the chasing car off us. Monroe parks the car and gets out. My heart is beating so hard in my chest I'm afraid it's gonna come out. Abel has been too quite during the whole 'speeding chasing' game. I look over to him and see he is looking out the window.

It's dark in the car, the only illumination is of moon. I try to make out his expression, he is lost in thoughts.

"Hey." I put a hand on his arm. He jumps at my voice, I admit it was a little loud in silence.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you."

"It's okay, I was lost in thoughts. You okay?" He asks me.

I nod my head yes, a million questions running through my mind but this is not the place for them. His phone rings and he fetchs it from his dress pant pocket.

"Yeah.. When?.." He waits for the response, I wonder what is it about.

"Are you fucking kidding me!.. Did you check the parameter?.. Okay I'm on my way. Its safe to come right?.. Okay meet you there." He cuts the call and calls for Monroe who is just outside his window.

He gets in driver's seat and Abel tell him to take us his place. I ask him what happened, why was he angry but he remains silent, his expression deadly.

"Abel I asked you something, what happened? What are you so pissed about?" Now I'm getting annoyed by him.

"Would you shut up for a second?!" He turns toward me and screams. That makes me shut up. I see his expression slowly change from anger to realisation of what he said. But without another word, I turn my face other way, looking out the window.

"Kiara, I am sorry. I'm just, very pissed right now." He sights. "Somebody broke into my place tonight. They didn't steal anything and left before security could come." He explains.
