More then just a car... - Dino fanfiction-

Chapter 4. Help

I felt like a total idiot but at least Dino believed me and that's all what matters to me right now. ''Any of these guys?" he asked, showing me some photos. "Yes, him!"I said, pointing at the match, although, in the picture he wasn't hurt. "That's Steward..." Dino mumbled, looking at the photo himself. "What are we going to do now?" I asked after a silence "I don't know... you said you heard things?" he asked.

"Flashbacks... as if I am in the middle of it," I said. "So many things are going on... they are screaming at each other and there was this... blow. I presumed the engines or at least one of the engines exploded. It was really loud and I keep hearing it..."I said. "Your description of Steward is exactly as I remember it..."he trailed off. "He wasn't completely dead and was rushed into surgery but died shortly after," Dino mumbled.

We locked eyes for a moment. "You seem excited..." I said. "For months I have been doing boring paperwork... I like digging into things..." he said as he got up. I smiled a little, "Was that also the reason why you asked me about my parents?" I questioned. "Yes, people think it's annoying if I ask about their past," he said, shrugging. I hummed and got up, "can I ask you something personal?"

He glanced at me but gave a brief nod, "your parents... do you miss them?" I asked. He stared at me before shaking his head. "No, I don't..." he sighed. "I wasn't good enough for them... when I decided I wanted to be a spy they mocked me off. Laughed at me and then shut the door in my face. They had a very high status... they have always treated me like I wasn't good enough. My dad always yelled at me when I did something wrong... even hit me," he sighed softly.

"I am sorry for asking, I didn't mean to--"
I was cut off from my Mirage. "It's okay... I accepted it a long time ago," he said, smiling. "Spies are imported and I think that you made a brave decision to become a spy," I said eventually. He smiled again, "same counts for you... you take a lot of risks," he said. "Yeah, I doubted for a long time..." I said. "Why did you decide to do it?" he questioned.

"I am abused... all my life I hear that I am worthless, so I wanted to prove them wrong and I don't know... I just wanted to do something that matters," I said, shrugging my shoulders. "I am sorry to hear that..." he said quietly. "badly abused?" he asked after a while and was a bit unsure. "Yeah... they starved me... till I was just 40 lbs and broke my arm... mentally as well, bullied a lot by other kids... I really enjoy doing this with you..." I said, making him smile.

"I know that feeling... you feel important and I am glad to have you here as well. You are not like the other femmes I have met before... you're really relaxed and sweet. I like that about you..." he said. "And you don't talk all the time," he grunted, making me laugh a little. I got up, "I have to go..." he gave me a puzzled look. "Now? But we are on something big," he complained.

((Dino's P.O.V))
She shied away. I saw it and I wish she didn't but talked to me instead. She shuffled a little on her feet while looking down. Perhaps I overwhelmed her a little. I sucked in a breath and flashed her a smile. "You know, just go home and we will talk about it tomorrow, okay?" I questioned.

She was relieved and returned the sheepish smile. "Okay," she said and grabbed her jacket. "Oh, did you fill in the form I have given you?" I asked. She sighed and gave a brief shook of her head before walking over to the desk and grabbed a pen. "Why do you want to know where I live?" She asked.

I raised a brow nod crossed my arms. "Why are you so shy about it?" I retorted. "No, I mean... if you want to come and visit me I don't care. Just curious..." she said before writing something down. She got up as she finished and handed it to me. "You want me to come and visit you?" I mocked. "Doesn't have too, I'll just be in time..."

It sounded a bit blunt and angry. Not the reaction I had hoped to get. She left without saying anything else. I brushed it off, perhaps she was just tired and nervous.
I sighed and collected everything. Putting the document in the file case and laid it in the drawer underneath my desk.

I had an evening patrol and on my way when I was about to turn back. I spotted Skylar and a man. He was screaming at her. I slowed down a bit and watched how he hit her and pushed her on the floor with so much force she scratched her knees and hands.
I gritted my teeth and parked my alt-more before hopping out. "Leave her alone!" I snapped, glaring at the middle aged man. Skylar seemed to be surprised and I helped her up. "Who do you think you are!" He spat out. "Her superior, and who do you think you are? Hurting a female!" I snapped.

"I expect you home in ten minutes..." he snarled before storming off. "Are you okay?" I asked. She nodded and looked up to me. "Yeah, it was my own fault anyway..." she sighed. "I see you tomorrow..." she said and turned around. "Skylar, wait..."
She glanced at me, "is he related to you?" I asked. She gave a brief shook of her head. "No, my care taker, nothing more," she mumbled before walking off. Apparently she didn't want to talk about it...
