Chapter 18: CREED

We were both a little tired the next morning so breakfast was a rushed affair before we got on the road. I wanted to leave early because I wasn't sure what, if any play Sal was gonna make, and I didn't want her caught in the middle.

If I'd been thinking straight I would've waited until she was out of harm's way like I'd planned to, but what's done is done. After her little trip down memory lane, I couldn't, not go fuck his shit up. He's lucky his ass is still breathing the sick fuck.

"If you're gonna fall asleep back there let me know so I can secure you." She'd still been a little sleepy in the restaurant because I'd woken her early, and she looked like she could hardly keep her eyes open.

I fixed her helmet and made sure she was seated properly while she assured me that she would stay up for the whole trip. There was a sense of excitement in her voice that I hoped to fuck I didn't kill somehow.
