xxxvii.
This can either go really good or really, really, bad. By doing something like this I not only put myself in danger but also Dean and Seth.
Yet here I am about to do something really stupid that I'm ninety-nine percent sure I'll regret it later.
"Can't we get a little closer?" I whisper to Dean. "No way madam. This is as close as we will get."
I sigh and I'm about to peek again when Dean pulls me down. He puts his finger on his lips and I hear a car go by.
My eyes widen and Dean continues to shh me. When we don't hear the car anymore Dean carefully peeks.
"Okay we have to go now madam. This is too risky. We're going to get caught and when we do those guards will shoot us without thinking. They'll assume we're spies or that we're from the police and they'll have no mercy on us."
Dean words scare me. They actually terrify me. I should probably take his advice and go back to Seth's mansion where I'm safe.
But I know if I leave without finding out what I came for it will haunt me for the rest of the day. I will think about it so, so, much it'll give me headaches.
"Okay." I say. He grabs my wrist and carefully leads me away from the mansion. Once we're by the dirt road again we start walking back to the car.
"I need to pee." I say stopping. Dean turns to look at me. "Can you wait until we get to the car madam? I'll drive to a gas station or something."
I shake my head no, "I can't. I really have to go. Being here kind of scared me and now I really have to pee."
Dean looks at me indecisively. "I won't take long. I just really have to go." Dean sighs and runs his fingers though his hair.
"Okay ma'am but please try to make it quick. We need to leave before someone notices." I nod my head, "You're waiting here right? Or do you have to watch me pee too?"
Dean clears his throat, "I'll wait here." He stands by a tree and I walk back. I keep turning around glancing to see if he's following or looking at me.
To my surprise he's kicking rocks with his boots not paying attention to me. I quickly make my way back to the bushes.
I'm trying to see what's the best way to approach the mansion without getting shot. I also have to make it quick or Dean will find out.
As I'm peeking I notice that more cars have arrived. The cars are on the entrance and they're blocking the guards.
I take a deep breath and hold my purse. This is it. I only have a few seconds to make my way across the yard and somehow enter without getting caught.
I walk out from behind the bush and run as fast as I can. When I make it to some parked cars I look at the entrance.
There's a black truck parked by the door and I watch as a few girls get out. I walk from behind the cars and make my way to the entrance.
"Where to ma'am?" A guard ask grabbing my arm. My heart accelerates and I start breathing quicker. "I'm with them. I was just getting my purse."
The guard grabbing my arm looks at the other one and at that moment I feel my heart drop. "Can I see your purse?" The other one asks.
I hand them the purse without hesitation. One of them starts looking through it like they're expecting to find guns or something.
"You can't take this inside ma'am." He answers. "Oh that's right. Silly me. I'm sorry I'm new at this."
One of the guards opens then door and let me in as the other one grabs onto my purse. When the door is opened I feel both reprieved and scared. Now that I'm here what am I going to do?
I walk in and no one is around. The place looks empty and this frightens me. Do they know I'm here? Does Seth know I'm here? Does Roman?
All of these questions are making me panic and then I hear noise. I start walking to the noise with shaky knees.
There's a white tall fence and I peek through it. I see there's lots of men and women around a huge pool. Some are in the pool and others are outside. There's also some guards around the pool. I should probably hurry because I'm sure there's guards around here too.
I try my best to spot Seth or Eva in the crowd but I can barely see through this hole. "Nicole?"
I gasp and cover my mouth turning around. Lana is standing in front of me and she looks at me the same way I'm looking at her.
"What the hell are you doing here?" She grabs my arm and pulls away from the fence. "I needed to see something."
"See what? Oh my gosh. Did Seth bring you here? Is he crazy? Are you crazy? Roman is here! If he sees you he's to explode! He's been looking for you like crazy. He constantly goes to my club and asks about you. It's gotten to the point that I'm even scared to show up to my job. Why're you here?"
She sounds worried, anxious, and furious at the same time. She walks towards the front of the house to the porch.
"Is Eva here?" I ask. Lana's eyes widen, "Are you seriously here because of Eva? You're risking your life and Seth's life for Eva?"
"Lana I needed to know if she was here. You know how she is." I say. Lana puts her hand on her forehead, "I thought you were smarter than this, Nicole."
"You don't understand, Lana." I say defensively. "No, I really don't understand why you would put yourself at risk all for jealously. It's incredible."
"Okay, okay, I get it. Its a stupid idea." Lana nods her head, "Yes, yes it is a stupid idea."
I look around the porch and at the fancy chairs.
"Who's house is this?" I ask. "Ortons. But you have no time to look around come on let's get you out of here before-"
She's about to walk down the porch when we hear talking. Lana quickly looks at me and we hear the talking louder.
She grabs me and opens the door pulling me in the house. "What're we going to do now?" I ask feeling myself panic. I'm really starting to regret this.
"Hide! Go and hide somewhere. I'll distract whoever is walking over here. Okay? Then I'll find a way to get you out without being seen."
I nod my head, "Okay. Thanks Lana." She straightens herself up and takes a deep breath. I quickly run behind a big couch and hide.
I put my hand against my mouth so you can't hear my loud shaky breathing. But I'm sure my heart is beating so fast that you can hear it from miles away.
