Don’t Cry Baby

Chapter 13

"Tyler, answer me. Why was someone calling you Andrew? Who the fuck is Andrew?" He stares at me

with an unrecognizable emotion plastered on his face. I place my hands crossed over my chest and

stare at him , impatiently waiting for him to fess up. He sighs and rubs his face with his hand, as he

looks back up at me I can see the dark circles under his eyes and the evidence that he hasn't been

sleeping properly. I shouldn't care after everything he has done, but I just can't help but want to pull him

towards me and hug him. He is so obviously lying to me about something however, which is just icing

on the cake of disappointment hes been feeding me.

"Andrew is me...It is my real name."

His real name...what does he mean by real name. His name is Tyler, it has always been Tyler. I stare at

him not knowing what to say at all, I turn to find the bed and sit down needing to process the

information he gave me. I take a deep breath and bring my legs up onto the bed , pulling them into my

chest and hugging them tight. Tyler walks over and sits next to me, his hand, out of habit I presume,

finds my back and begins to rub gently. Although I am angry with him right now, the feeling of his hand

on my back is still soothing.

"Did you have to change it? I am just trying to understand what is happening right now."

"I did something bad...I needed to be someone else and get away from some bad people. It's important

that you don't know anything more Ash. You're safer not knowing okay."

I stare at him and nod, if he says it is safer I believe him. I know he has lied before, obviously

considering his name is actually Andrew but, there is something about the way that he is saying that

causes me to believe him.

"Okay, so we need to find new transportation. Brad, an old affiliate of mine, will be here in about an

hour with our new ID's, passports, things like that. Once he gets here we can go and find a new car.

Are you going to be good now that you are not tied up? You still have not toldme how you freed

yourself by the way."

"Well basically, you left the key on the pillow next to me. You are not a very good kidnapper, like you

are pretty shitty at it."

He rolls his eyes at me and pushes me over on the bed. I giggle and stay lying down on my back

"How are we getting a new car Tyler, and what in the hell did you do to my moms?"

Tyler looks at me with a guilty grin and I grab a pillow placing it over my face letting out a dramatic

groan.

"I kind of set it on fire..."

"You set it on fire! What the fuck?"

"I'm sorry but, if we continued to drive it around they would have recognized us."

"This is all so crazy." I continue to hide my face in the pillow, I feel his hands remove the pillow from my

face and it is thrown across the room. Tyler grabs a hold of my face and pulls me up towards his face,

so close that I can feel his warm breath.

"Don't you ever fucking call me crazy again!"

The fury in his eyes makes me flinch, I attempt to move my face and release his grip but it only tightens

as he stares at me. I close my eyes and break the eye contact.

"Open your eyes and look at me." I shake my head and keep them closed.

"Open them now!" I bite my lip and open my eyes. I look at him, his blue eyes darkening as they

continue to look into my green ones. I feel him leaning in and I try to move but, my body betrays meContent protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

and my lips part. I small smirk dances on his lips and he leans into close the distance between us. Our

lips touch and it is like we put every emotion we have felt in the last two days into this kiss. He grabs at

me at me , holding me tightly. So tight that the I bet his fingertips will leave marks, right now I don't

even care.

I roll over so that I am on top of him and feel him stir underneath me, I smile into the kiss and nibble on

his lower lip. He lets out a growl and grabs a fist of my hair holding me closure to him.

He turns us over so that he is on top. I have no idea what I am doing, why I am letting him touch me in

this way. I swear there is something wrong with me honestly. He hurt me, he hurtthe people that I love

and here I am letting him kiss me and touch me in this way. I push at him, he growls against my lips but

I don't stop. I push him harder and he sits up staring at me with a strange expression.

"What the fuck Ashley?"

"I can't do this Tyler, not with you."

He climbs off and sits beside me on the bed, I back up and sit so that my back is against the wall. A

knock at the door causes Tyler to look up. He slides off the bed and walks towards the door of the

motel. As Tyler opens the door, the burly man opens his arms and they both embrace patting each

other on the back. They separate and the man comes into view, I stand up and walk towards them. He

isn't bad looking, he reminds me a lot of Tyler. He has disheveled hair that reminds me a little bit of

early Bieber except he has it up in one of those man buns.

"Damn Andy, you were right, this one is so much better." The man eyes me up and down and I have to

stop myself from hiding behind Tyler to cover myself up. His eyes make me feel like I am standing here

in my underwear in front of him. He winks at me and I look away feeling embarrassed. The heat quickly

rises in my cheeks and ears. I hear a growl come from Tyler and the man backs off.

"Fuck off Brad, where's my shit"

"Okay, my bad. Here's your ID's using the pictures you sent me as well as your passports. I even threw

in a ride since you are my favorite customer. Here are the keys."

"Fuck man, since when do you deal in cars?"

"Since now."

Tyler grins and they do that dumb bro hug thing again. Brad pats Ty on the back and it looks as if he

says something in Tyler's ear. They pull away from each other and Ty nods. Brad walks out the door

and Tyler shuts it behind him.

"Alright Ash, are you ready for your new name?"
