CHAPTER 62

It must be a coincidence...it has to be. I mean, how could the same car from the hotel that day be following me now? Then again, Roman had said that he'd seen the same car before...a couple of weeks prior to it being in the car park that day, so...who the hell was it? No! Don't be silly Faith! Of course it's not the same car, your just getting freaked 'cause you're on a dark road, and your minds starting to play tricks on you!

I needed to stay focused anyways, and concentrate on finding my way to Romans house using the GPS, but it just felt so creepy on these back roads. It started to irritate me that there were no other cars around, but I couldn't let that distract me now, so I decided to turn on the radio to keep myself company...ugh nothing but pop and techno, no thanks I frowned, and immediately turned it off.

I remembered how cool it had been down in Dallas for both Roman and I , as every other radio station was blaring the most awesome of country music you could imagine! I decided to peek through the rear view again, and saw that the dark car was still trailing behind me...omg just pass me already! I thought getting slightly worried now. I kept a close eye on it as I continued to drive, but my thoughts had begun manifesting into the stuff nightmares are made of...I mean, what if it was some crazed lunatic on the run, and I just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time?! Oh my goodness, what if I never see Roman again? I slammed my foot down hard on the pedal and sped the rest of the way down the road, determined to out run them. Problem was though, the black car that I believed was following me, did exactly the same...

You minds not playing tricks on you now girl! I thought as my heart began to race inside my chest! I became terrified now! What the hell do I do? Seeing as no one else was around, I decided to go over the speed limit slightly, hoping to still outrun whoever it was following me. All of a sudden, the black car started to flash its headlights! Oh god, I've heard Urban Legends of things like this, you're not supposed to stop when a car flashes its lights at you, otherwise they have permission to kill you... or was it the other way around? I dunno, something to that effect anyways I thought, with fear gripping me as the black car neared closer now...

I picked up speed again, going way over the limit this time!

It did the same.

The black car now began beeping its horn at me, which made me jump and swerve in fright! I quickly gripped the steering wheel to steady the car, then brought it to a sudden stop by the side of the road, after having the wind knocked out of me when I almost crashed into a tree!

I sat there sweating and panting in fright, trying to let my heart calm down, while quickly checking the rear view mirror again to see where it was.

I noticed the card had also stopped, and was sitting directly behind me on the side of the same side of the road...

I quickly made sure all my doors were locked, before looking through the rear view again. just then, I heard a light knocking next to me, and my heart leapt into my mouth as I slowly turned toward the window with wide eyes. I couldn't see who it was at first, as it was so dark outside, and right now I didn't care! If I was going to die today, I wanted Roman to know I still loved him, and so I immediately grabbed my phone and began texting frantically...

{Baby, I'm on my way to your house now, I'm driving on...

I quickly turned the GPS towards me to see where I was...

...Harpers Road' and I'm....}

Tap! Tap! ''FAITH!'' the voice said.

I froze in shock, trying to process the fact that the person knew my name.

Tap Tap! ''Open the window doll!''

Dean?

I nervously leaned over and rolled down the window slightly....

''Girl you drive like a crazy person you know that?'' he chuckled, trying to stick his head through and look at me.

It was definitely him.

''Dean!'' I cried, holding my hand to my heart and let out a huge sigh of relief ''You scared the SHIT out of me!'' I told him, and rolled the window down all the way, looking at him with a relieved smiled.

''I scared you? You scared me! I thought you were drunk driving or something'' he teased.

''What the are you doing all the way out here in Pensacola anyway?!'' I asked curiously.

''I came to visit Paige silly, what else? As soon as my segment on Smackdown was done tonight, I jumped on the first plane to come see her, I just miss her so much you know. I could only stay a while anyways, as I have an early fan signing with Dolph and The Miz at Comic-Con tomorrow in Toronto. I was just about to drive back to the airport, when I saw you coming out of that pharmacy by the hospital, I tried waving but you didn't see me, so I thought I'd flag you down and come say hi'' he said looking at me innocently.

''Oh Dean, I'm so sorry'' I told him, feeling incredibly silly now for the way I reacted ''I'm just on edge about everything these days'' I sighed heavily ''So Comic-Con huh? You geek!'' I teased back.

''Hey! It's actually cooler than you think doll'' he winked ''plus d'you know how much free stuff we get at these gigs? I wouldn't miss it for the world!'' he laughed.

''So you're a geek and a free loader'' I laughed back, teasing him again.

''It is what it is doll'' he smiled down at me ''So, you off to Romans huh?''

''How'd you know'' I said raising an eyebrow up at him and grinning.

''He's my home boy, we tell each other everything, and as my new sis...'' he said leaning in and rubbing me on the head ''...I can tell you that Roman loves you very much doll, and he's super excited to see you on his days off, I mean that's kinda all he's been talking about all week'' he winked.

''Really? Ha ha, I can't believe he tells you stuff like that, aww he's so sweet'' I said, blushing slightly.

''Are you kidding? You're all he talks about anymore. The guy's like head over heels about you doll'' he smiled warmly.

''Well, thank you Dean, and as you already know, Saraya's head over heels about you too'' I smiled back.

''She is, I had no idea'' he teased, and we both laughed out loud together at his whacky fun humor.

Hey I...I don't wanna pry or anything Faith, but I just wanna say I'm real sorry for what happened to you, you know with the suspension thing. I uh...well what I'm trying to say is, and this is off the record, but it took real guts to give it to Summer like that, and at WrestleMania of all places'' he said.

''Don't remind me'' I said looking down ashamed.

He leaned in and gently patted his hand on my shoulder ''...I also know you did it partly for Paige, and I'm grateful. If you know how much I wanted to get at Summer myself for what she did to her, but I'd never hit a girl you know. And even though it sucks right now with your suspension, along with all the bullcrap people are talking on social media, I just want you to know that I never judged you doll'' he smiled, flashing his cute little dimple at me.

''Well thank you Dean, I really appreciate that. I admit, a good chunk of my behavior that day did have to do with Paige'' I told him honestly ''I still hear that awful sound whenever I think about what happened'' I shuddered ''...to be standing so close to your best friend, and not being able to help her in time ate away at me like you would not believe! I took revenge on Summer in a real unprecedented and unprofessional way, and now I'm paying the price. But, what's done is done, and I need to start making amends now'' I told him.

''Your real sweet Faith'' he smiled ''but if were in your position...I would have killed her''

I looked up at him in horror, then quickly maintained my composure ''Well, I better get going Dean, I wanna make sure everything is cool for Romans arrival tomorrow'' I smiled ''but hey, I'll see you next week Monday in Chicago ok''

''You got it doll'' he grinned, and stood and lightly tapped the hood of my car to see me off.

''Hey Dean...'' I quickly called out to him.

''Yeah?'' he said, bending down look at me again.

I hesitated now....I so desperately wanted to ask if he had anything to do with Summers beaten up face prior to Mania, but I decided against it and just said ''...say hi to Seth for me would you?''

''Sure thing Doll, and hey, see you Monday!'' he waved.

I watched and waited as he got in his car, beeping his horn twice at me before driving off down the dark road.

The whole thing just felt uncomfortable.
