Liar

Flash Backs

I was in the car, waiting for Rio to drive me home. He was in the house talking to his family before we leave. I had never been more sick and light headed in my life! I just sat there in the dark thinking about the guy on the floor, blood everywhere, the smile on Rio's face. It was all to much! I looked at my watch. I'm meant to be with Ruth having drinks in just over an hour. I closed my eyes and sat back in my seat more. I uncontrollably began to cry. I couldn't handle all of this. I heard the car door open next to me and all the cold came rushing into the car. Rio sat next to me and shut the door. He actually looked concerned for once and spoke softly to me.

Rio : "are you ok?"

I just looked at him with tears in my eyes and he looked back at me, almost as if he felt guilty. I say almost though, because I know in the end, he will never feel guilty. He continued to speak softly and it was actually calming.

Rio : "I remember the first time I shot someone. My dad passed me the gun and he stared at me until I pulled the trigger."

he smiled sweetly at me and I smiled slightly back. It made me cry more. The way he described the first time he shot someone was just like how I shot that guy. He put his hand on mine, squeezed it gently and scrunched his nose slightly at me. I laughed and wiped the tears away on my cheeks. I could see tears in his eyes but we were both smiling at eachother. He quietly spoke to me, not letting go of my hand.

Rio : "you want to go home or calm down a few more minutes?"

Molly : "um.. I think I w-want to sit here a f-few more minutes"

He pulled me into his arms, onto his lap and I lay my head on his chest. I began to cry more as he gently rubbed my head. We continued speaking quietly to eachother.

Molly : "why did I have to shoot him?"

Rio : "my family have always done this thing where, if you catch us doing something, we make you do something so you can't tell the police. So, if you went to the police and said you saw me stealing, I could say I saw you shoot a guy"

I looked up at him and he looked down at me where I was sitting in his lap in his arms.

Rio : "I do wish I didn't have to but my family..."

He stopped and a tear rolled down his cheek. I cuddled up to him more and kissed his cheek. We whispered softly to eachother.

Molly : "it's ok. I understand, you've grown up like this. I feel safe with you"

Rio : "your going to be doing more things like this now, you do know that, now my family have seen you? There's no getting out of it" I could hear him crying more.

Molly : "I know, I know. You will make sure I'm ok though, right?"

Rio : "of course I will"

We sat in silence for a few minutes. It felt so nice cuddling up to him. I began to feel tired and yawned.

Rio : "you want to go home?"

Molly : "I have to be out with Ruth"

Rio : "are you sure? I don't think it's a good idea. You sure you can't go out with her tomorrow night instead?"

He looked down at me and it was so adorable how concerned he was for me. I smiled up at him and he smiled to. He leant Down more and I sat up to him. He put his head on mine and he slowly leant down and kissed me. It... Felt... Amazing! The kiss lasted a few moments and he softly pulled away. I lay my head under his chin and he laughed slightly.

Rio : "do you want me to put you in your seat and get you a blanket? I have one in the back of my car"

Molly : "that sounds really nice, thank you"
