Chapter 84

*****Sofia's POV*****

"Why are we going out this way?" I question gently, not wanting to send Vincent over the edge since I could already sense that he was overwhelmed. "It's safer." He all but states, opening the fire exit door to find a waiting car and two large guys.

I shrink back slightly at the sight of them, not deeming them to be the friendly looking type, as they move swiftly to take our bags out to the car.

I feel Vincent's hand reach the small of my back, gaining my attention as I look up at him to find his eyes scanning our surroundings.

What has gotten him so paranoid?! I wonder what was in that damn envelope...

Seconds later when the men finish up, he hurries me out and into the car, as both men slam the doors and climb in the front before starting to drive off in to the night - wasting no time at all.

I was thankful to be going back to Durango, finding comfort there in Vincent's home with the familiar presence of Emma and Daryl...

I suddenly felt guilty, having not bothered to text Daryl at all since the incident between the two boys the other day - finding him to be fully at fault for it all this time around.

I was slightly disappointed that he hadn't bothered to text me once either since then, unsure of why he would have any reason to be pissed off with me since he was the one who had lashed out...

But I knew that he was annoyed about me deciding to travel with Vincent and looking back at things now, maybe he was right all along, although it still wasn't Vincent's fault.

"You good?" I turn to find Vincent's concerned eyes as I nod stiffly and eye the pair in the front.

As if he could feel my tension, he reaches over and takes my hand in his - a gesture in which I was thankful for since it helped to make me feel a whole lot safer.
