I had never seen Kendall drive before. It was frightening to say the least. She was driving way too fast, but I guess given the circumstances I didn't mind it. She kept her eyes on the road the entire time, even when I fiddled with the radio. I knew she didn't know where she was going, either, I just hoped she could sense something.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAiTOx5yet

It wasn't until her phone vibrated did she say, "Can you check that?"508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiOYjXvxPs
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQlr0jmfTp
"Sure." I nodded and reached over to pick up her phone off the dashboard. I opened it and looked at the text message. "Um, Kendall? You might want to stop driving."508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxUrdGyplu
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGzLvSpK7P
"Yeah?" she muttered, still looking at the road. "Why is that?"508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqG6nebBOUD
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4j0mPUi9X
"Because you're cold," I said softly. When she asked me what the hell I was talking about, I said, "That's what your message says: you're cold. What's going on?"508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTYbXPzE5T

"It's Seth," she said as she jerked the car to a full stop and looked at me, her golden eyes glinting in the dark. "I don't even know this asshole and he's killed my friends and taken my boyfriend."508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKkJwqKtcZ

I rubbed my temples. "How would he know you?"508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTHtMSX0uu

"I don't know," she muttered, looking at me. "Give me my phone."508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBvcVC846u

I handed it to her and she dialed a number, then waited. When someone answered, she turned on the speaker phone.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTckIGmqzk

"I thought you might call. How are you, Kendall?"508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkk7iP9RTr3
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8sMx8mL83
"Fuck you," she hissed.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsrRSFZPij

"You might want to watch your language," said the stranger. "Is Jude there with you? I know he saw me."508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNqR4O5U7i

"Seth?" I said, glancing at Kendall. "What's this about? Why did you need information on her?"508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21lPu9oxpp
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzejizWAajh
A soft chuckle filled the silence in the car. I watched Kendall shiver and close her eyes. If I knew any better, she was willing herself not to cry, because all of this was too much.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4aaPczSYX

"Listen you piece of shit," I said, gripping the door handle. "If you don't tell me why you're doing this and you hurt Christian, I'm going to kill you."508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTZcbO2BFL

Seth spoke quietly into the phone. "Come and find me, fucker."508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcZ9HdIDIy

When the dial tone sounded, Kendall started to cry. She was trembling so much that I thought she was going to drop the phone. When she didn't, when she just let out this awful wailing noise, I grabbed her hands tightly. I wanted her to look at me, to see that I was here, that I was so fucking sorry for what I did, and I would help her through this.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qrwHfyahl

"Stop," I whispered. "Stop it and look at me. Look at me, damnit! I'm real, I'm here, and we're going to be okay. We're going to save him." When I moved my hands to her faces, finally, she turned her head, her golden eyes murky.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgEo7R0AyJ

"Please," she pleaded, shaking her head. "God, I'm sorry. Just help me. I can't lose him. I can't, Jude."508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlG8Q8sGI6p
508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nFiFFNWwd
"I know," I said, pulling her to me. She rested the side of her cheek against my chest, and if it were possible, I could feel every ounce of regret that she had.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR89a1WOKB4

When her phone vibrated against my knee, neither of us moved. Kendall didn't even seem to notice, but I did. Slowly, I picked it up and looked at the screen.508Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNhfTWGSMU
