“Sarah, be prepared to get on the floor,” I said, taking her chin and turning her to face me. “It’ll be okay.” Then I slammed my lips on hers and kissed her like it was the last time.
“Enough kissy face,” Cash snapped. “They’re here for us.”
I looked up and saw the SUVs crowding around us. One pulled up beside us and moved in closer, pushing us to the edge of the road. “Kavanaugh, hit the gas!”
We hit the gravel on the road and he did his best to steady the vehicle, but then the SUV jolted forward as we were hit from behind. I turned and fired off two shots, taking out the back window, then fired at the SUV behind us. The bullets bounced off the windshield, causing zero damage.
“Fuck, they have bullet resistant glass. Save your bullets.”
The SUV lurched forward as Kavanaugh jerked the wheel, forcing us back onto the road as he plowed into the vehicle beside us. He sped up, but whoever was after us refused to let us get away without a fight. Bullets pinged off the side of the vehicle and the glass burst inward as a bullet hit the window beside Red.
“Stupid fuckers!” Red shouted, unbuckling and climbing into the backseat.
“Get on the floor, Sarah.”
I shoved her to the floor and climbed into the back with Red. “Kavanaugh, get us as close as possible!”
Red hit the button for the back hatch, and as it opened, he climbed out, then jumped onto the top of the SUV, but bounced and started to fall. He was hanging off the top, barely holding on. “This is not the way FNG did it!”
“Grab onto something!”
“Really?” he retorted. “Great fucking advice!”
I rolled my eyes and waited for my opportunity. As Kavanaugh swerved closer, I jumped, grabbed the luggage rack on top, and pulled myself up. I crawled over to Red. “Give me your hand!”
“I got this!”
“You’re about to be roadkill!” I yelled.
“I can make it!”
“And when you fall and break your neck, I’ll tell Zoe it was because you were being a dumbass and wouldn’t take my fucking hand!”
He finally reached up and I caught his hand, hauling him up the side of the SUV. It swerved wildly, nearly throwing us off. I spun and slammed the butt of my gun into the window over and over again with no luck.
“Fuck, I wish we had an umbrella right now,” I muttered.
“What’s your plan now?” Red shouted over the wind.
“Me? You were the one that jumped out. I just came for moral support!”
“Moral support is going to get these assholes off our tail!”
I turned and aimed my gun at the SUV behind us, unloading my magazine on the front tire, finally hitting it with my last shot. The SUV swerved wildly with the high speed, driving into the ditch as it lost control.
“That’s how you do it!” I shouted.
The SUV swerved suddenly and I went rolling off the side. I grabbed the bar, barely holding on as my fingers began to slip. The man in the passenger seat smirked at me. “Open the fucking window and smile at me, asshole!”
“He’s not gonna open the window!” Red shouted. “Here! Take my gum!”
“I’m not taking your gum!” I shouted, looking up at him like he was crazy.
“Just do it! And then grin at him like you’re about to blow him up!”
“With gum?”
“It worked inMission Impossible!”
