Chapter 256 - Kevin (5)

The next morning Rachel woke up to see 2 bags packed on the side of the bed, she rubbed her eyes and as she was trying to process what was going on a cheerful voice came from behind him "It's good that you are awake, now get ready as we will be leaving soon."

She looked confused "Where are we going?"

He looked at her with a grin on his face as he moved forward to pinch her cheek lightly which turned pink under his touch "We are going to find out about Kevin, if we don't go there, they will approach us and if that happens, they will be really strong. I gave it a thought and I have come to the conclusion that taking you there now will only be safe rather than waiting for a later chance."

Rachel's face lit up at what he said, she jumped out of the bed to hug him and give him a peck on the cheek as she said "Thank you" she then quickly ran to the other side of the room and into the washroom to get changed. 

Robert had been worrying for her but when he went to take the shower last night after to cool himself down, he gave Jamie's words a thought and later he came to a realization that it was the best to take the first step rather than wait as it would get more dangerous for her and he knew that until he was with Rachel, he would not let any harm befall her.

Seeing the smile on Rachel's face right now, he felt happy which made him think how long it had been that he had had any emotions for anyone. He then stared at the disappearing figure of Rachel that went to the washroom and a smile crept on his face. 

He had been holding himself back and with Rachel making the moves on him, he could barely resist, he could not believe that he was able to control himself last night maybe he loved her to the extent that her safety mattered more than the desire he had to touch her the way he wanted, only he knew how stong his desires were for her and if he once began he would do the things that make it difficult for her to get out of the bed. 

The thought of doing things to her stirred the emotions inside him and he felt hot but then she appeared in front of him all dressed up to go out. She wore her shorts and a denim jacket, he looked at her and imagined how she would look in a dress. 

She had never dressed like a girl before that he had seen, he had always seen her wear these kind of clothes, his thoughts came to a halt when Rachel spoke "Did you pack my things too."

He nodded and she smiled happily "Then let's get going."

He nodded once again before carrying the bags downstairs and Rachel followed him. As they were on the stairs Robert spoke "Jessica will be coming along."

"Okay" she replied 

Jessica was already waiting for them downstairs and they left as soon as they could after having the breakfast.

On the way there Rachel sat quietly now that she had time, the thoughts popped up in her mind. She was trying to figure out what was it with Robert that he acted so strange, she had seen his desire, his want for her. One moment, he was acting so possessive in the car and the next she knew, he was trying to resist her. She knew he loved her and she felt that he would never hurt her but she had seen him putting in all his efforts in holding back last night because he thought he would hurt her, she didn't push him any further because, she could see the struggle he was going through, trying so hard not to touch her while she had completely cornered him and thrown herself on him. Although she knew he was worried for her, she still felt that he should not be holding back and be there with her. 

The silence in the car lingered for a while which had Jessica thinking what must have happened between the two to be so silent so she decided to break this by trying to start a conversation "Robert what had you change your mind that you decided to bring Rachel along with you."

Rachel who was lost in her thoughts was pulled back to present and her big round eyes now looked at Jessica, Robert had already told her the reason but was he going to tell her sister or mess around with her as he usually did. Rachel looked at him as he began to speak and he realised he was in no mood to joke as he told Jessica the same reason he had told her and then the excitement in her eyes died. 

The car was once again covered in silence and Jessica felt uncomfortable again, she had tried to start a conversation thinking that her brother would joke and they would finally start talking but it was nothing like she expected, the conversation was short lived and she felt uncomfortable. Rachel, who observed Jessica carefully realized that although both of them were comfortable with driving in silence, Jessica was feeling uncomfortable so she thought of taking to her "Are you excited, Jess."

The smile on Jessica's face appeared again as she spoke "My hands have been itching for a good fight, I am looking forward to going there."

Rachel chuckled at this and said "Yeah, it would be great to kick someone's ass" she said thinking about beating Kevin, this time that she was going prepared but she didn't underestimate his powers. 

Rachel trail of thought went to the good times she had with Kevin and she began to wonder how it would have gone if he was not evil. 

Robert looked at her with an evil grin knowing well what she was thinking "What is on your mind darling?"
