“Whats wrong?” Danny asked worriedly.
“Marc’s over there” Lindsay whispered. She wasnt sure why she was whispering, its not as though Marc could hear her.
“Where?” Danny looked beyond Lindsay, out the window “Oh, thats him on the bench, right? Yeah, i wouldn't turn my back on him. He looks pissed”
“So he should be. He was kicked out of my house, i moved all the way over here, then dumped his ass. I'm surprised he hasn't put out a gang on me”
“He wouldn't be able to hun”
“What do you mean?”
“To get a gang on you would mean having to have a gang in New York, word gets around, my family would hear it, and you’d be even more protected than you are now”
“Thank you”
Danny came closer to Lindsay, kissing her on the cheek and smirking at Marc “You’re welcome”
Marc’s blood was boiling. How dare he kiss her in front of him. He obviously knows who he is. Bastard. Marc sat himself on a bench. He wanted to know where he was taking his Lindsay. Lucy was stood on the street corner up there, marc saw her in the distance, she might also see Lindsay in the car. She even might know who the guy was too. The car was slowly approaching Lucy. She had obviously seen them, as she was going up to the car . What she did next was what marc was really not expecting. She opened up one of the passenger doors and actually got in. He quickly got out his phone and dialled one of the few numbers he would ring in New York.
“Hello”
“Lucy, where are you. I think I've just found her”
“I’m heading uptown now. Where did ya see her?”
“Oh erm, in the car... you’re in!”
“Shit, you saw that? Look, i can explain”
“Explain this”
Marc hung up his phone, and shoved it back in his pocket. Going with his instinct, he dumped the papers in the nearest bin and took off after the car. There were too many people on the sidewalk for him to manage to run after the car, so he tried his luck running in the road. The busy New York roads were stuck in a traffic jam which stretched as far as anyone could see. Marc deducted it would be pretty safe for him to run along the road side.
Danny and Lindsay were now sat in the back of the car, Lucy had taken over driving. Lindsay was freaking out in the back seat.
“What am I gonna do. he’s gonna fine me. What if he tells everyone else where i am. Oh you are so stupid for thinking you could get away with this Lindsay. Stupid Lindsay, stupid Lindsay”
Danny pulled Lindsay into a hug. Thankfully, she had stopped freaking out on contact; now, though, she had began to let a few stray tears fall gently onto Danny’s shirt. He whispered soothingly into her ear.
“You're not stupid sweetheart. You're one of the most intelligent people I have ever met. He will not get you”
“Lucy, take the side roads. Drop us off at someone else house though, don't let him see. Let him go back to Ma's with you. Ok?” Danny commanded his cousin.
Lucy did as Danny said, silently maneuvering the car so she could take the nearest side road.
Danny held Lindsay in his arms still. She wasn't crying anymore, but she still felt like it. Her face was buried in Danny's chest and he played gently with her hair. It was quite relaxing, to have him aimlessly playing with her hair, it made her feel safe.
Lucy had managed to lose Marc completely now, well she could no longer see him in the wing mirror but she was positive that he wasn't off their trail for sure, only a tad delayed. Considering Lucy hadn't yet got her license, she was a very competent driver. Danny was certain she would get a reputation for getaway driving, it was after all what she was best at, and he could probably easily have got a job with the mafia boys robbing banks or something to that effect, the times he had stolen something, he had been exceptional at performing his task, whether it be flirting with the security lady while everyone was making the grab, or going in to make the grab himself, he had always succeeded; he now left all the dodgy dealing to his father, and he was more focused on getting his school grades and protecting Lindsay at the moment.
Soon, Lucy was pulling the car to a halt in an alley, she didn't turn off the engine, but she unlocked the doors, “You're so close to Peyton's place now guys. The turning with the blue star painted onto the wall is the one you need, then its the first door which will lead you to her garage – thats always open, just go through the garage, and she should be out in her garden, if not, there is a key underneath the pot with the roses” Lucy said as quickly as she could, most of it was barely audible, but Danny knew a lot of it anyway.
Danny and Lindsay got out the car, Lindsay waited to one side while Danny went up to the door of the driver window, “Thanks Luce, tell ma and dad where I am, ok? I'm probably not gonna be home for a few days, I'm gonna be spending all the time with Lindsay. I'll keep ya updated though”
He quickly backed away from the window when he heard footsteps approaching. Danny started to run down the alley, pulling Lindsay with him, and turned down into the first corner he found. Lucy, in the mean time, had driven off. Him and Lindsay were crouched down behind a bin, watching Lucy drive off into the distance and Marc follow her out of the alley; when the couple were both sure it was safe that Marc was out of the surroundings, they resumed their journey to Peyton's. Just as Lucy said, the blue start was painted there, the doors were open, and Peyton was in the backyard. She was waiting for them, apparently Lucy had managed to call her in the time that it had taken Danny and Lindsay to get there. That girl would go far.
