Chapter 18: Protector

This day has finally come. I don't know why I avoided it when I knew sooner or later he was going to find out. It's not like anything was even going to change if he found out. Everything is going to be like before so why am I freaking out on this?

My thoughts were distracted when he said, "Hold on" and made a quick curve. I was so afraid I was going to fall, I wrapped my arms around his waist on impulse. The force of the curve made me bump my head on to his back. And I don't know why but I didn't let go, I held on to his waist for the rest of the ride. He didn't protest or resist or anything, he just kept on speeding. For some strange reason, I felt protected when I held on to him. I felt like as long as I held him, nothing was going to happen to me and I don't know why I felt that way.

"What's your address?" He shouted because the rain and the speed were making it difficult for me to hear what he was saying if he didn't shout.

"233 Brooklyn Street", I replied.
