Taken Chapter Eleven:

* Noah/David*

I sat there after observing the menu so long she came back over and greeted me once again with the most unique smile. " Find anything you like?, she asked " " Yes, I answered then continued. I'll take the French onion burger medium well with steak fries on the side and a Bud wiser " Smiling at her. " Coming right up she smiled taking the menu touching my fingers. " A shock ran straight through me I had to compose my self fast other wise I'm going to blow my cover. " Something tells me I'm going to win this little challenge of yours " David chuckled at the back of my head. " Shut up I grumbled " I continued to Observe the girl as she took orders. I kept noticing her bright smile despite all of the dark make up. Then I notice a group of familiar people come up the other end of the counter. She carried on with them having deep conversations. I sipped my beer and continue to watch. " That's Erick and Anna " David spoke disrupting my thoughts. Suddenly this wave of pain hit me in my gut. " What the hell is that, I scolded at David " " Ahh, that would be guilt, your noticing a missing face that should be here, One that you took from me, My bestfriend Jackson " he said to me. " Why would I care about some kid who got in the way" , I shook. " Because you are apart of me not me apart of you , David scoffed." " You can feel all the pain that I feel", he spoke again. " I used to not be able too, It has to be something to do with her. " " Maybe it does, Maybe your just as weak to Elizabeth's charm as I am. " David laughed at the back of my head yet again. Meanwhile she was heading back over to us. " Here you go, One French Onion burger and steak fries. Let me know if you need anything else. " she said about to walk away before I stopped her. " Yes, I'll take a glass of water" he asked. " Ok, I will be right back. "

5hrs later...

* Elizabeth's POV*

I cleaned up every inch of the bar top to bottom I was putting dishes away and my phone started buzzing, it's a text from Eli. " Do you need me to give you a ride back tonight or are you fine walking, Got to take these two drunk morons home " I could only assume he was talking about his twin Erick and Anna. " I'll be fine walking " I replied back and then continued to stock and put everything away. " Just got to do one more thing " I thought to myself. I reached for the old bottle of bourbon at the top shelf and poured a shot for myself it's officially past midnight and my mom would have celebrated her birthday today. " Happy birthday mom" I sighed to myself before taking the shot of very strong bourbon. " Jesus " I told myself. I knew it would be strong but not that strong. I shook it off, washed the shot glass and placed the bottled back on the top shelf before I headed to the door. I stopped for a moment I forgot to turn off the kitchen lights. I grumbled to myself and headed back behind the counter and turned them off. I kept remembering that stranger from earlier. I couldn't see his face but his stance and his voice they all seemed so familiar. I shook off my suspicions locking the door.

* Noah's POV *

I left the bar about thirty minutes before closing. I decided I'd wait around the corner where no one could see me. I waited for what seem like forever, What could possibly be taking her so long to leave, I thought to myself. I peaked around the corner again and looked at the entrance and watched as the door open. I jumped back to the side of the building and sighed, " finally, I thought to myself ". I watched as she walked up the street. " She really made this way too easy, she's walking by herself " I laughed to myself. I could feel David's annoyance with me. Once she was a good bit up the road I came out and started to follow keeping my distance. She had her head phones, she seemed like a sweet girl but looking at her in this moment she really wasn't all that wise I thought to myself shaking my head. She really had made it too easy. She turned the corner, I began to slow down because she looked like she was suspicious of her surroundings. I took a breath and peaked around the corner she was walking again. This time I picked up the pace catching up with her. She appeared as if she about to stop and go into the apartment building up the street I had to make this quick other wise my window was closing. Now I was running but carefully and quietly. I took the rag from my back pocket and ran. She was just about to cut the corner to enter the building. I caught up and yanked her up from behind. " Get off of me, She yelled " I quickly put the rag over her mouth making her pass out in my arms. I never felt so satisfied with him laying there. " Looks like I might win this challenge after all" chuckling to myself knowing David was fuming.
