I followed her, taking in the scenery. The guards wouldn't dare tell my dad they lost me, so all they could do was wait until I was ready to return home.

"This is going to be fun," I said as I walked up to the counter to reserve our lane.

"Not to mention funny."

I replied with a laugh. I was most definitely going to make a fool out of myself with this bowling game, but I honestly didn't care. It was all about having fun with me right now. I was going to have a good time.

"Be prepared to laugh."

"The only thing I'm laughing it is these ridiculous bowling shoes," I said as I pulled off my high tops and put on the rentals. I was really starting to enjoy this, and I had the company of a beautiful girl.

"You get used to them after a while."

I told him with a simple shrug. I sat down, took off my tennis shoes and put my repulsive-looking rental shoes on my feet. I knew that they were rather ugly and that they didn't smell very appealing, but it wasn't like we couldn't not wear them.

"The fun outweighs the ridiculous bowling shoes; trust me."

I smiled as I set the computer up so we could start.

"Ladies first," I told her as my cell phone started ringing. Probably the guards trying to find me. I turned it off and slid it back inside my pocket.

"You are such the gentleman."

I told him with a laugh. I quickly tied my rental shoes and went to get a bowling ball to use. I picked a bright pink one that I would be able to use and then returned to our lane.

"Here goes nothing."

I took a deep breath, let it out and turned to face the alley. I took four steps and then released the bowling ball, hoping for a strike or at least something decent. What I ended up getting was six pins down, which I'd take. My second turn resulted in three more pins, which gave me nine...not bad at all for me.

"You're up."

I told him as I took a seat in one of the chairs since I was done with my turn.

"Not bad," I said as I got up to bowl. I took a black ball and headed up the lane, letting the ball roll out of my hand, knocking down the entire set on my first roll. "Your turn."

I was actually having more fun than I'd had in a long time. Maybe I was going to like living in Westland. I was especially going to like hanging out with Abby if she wanted me around after today.

"Show off."

I commented with a smirk as I rose to my feet. I walked past him, grabbed my bowling ball and turned towards the lane. I took my usual four-step approach routine and released the ball. I knocked down eight pins this time and that was really good for me. I took my second turn and knocked the two remaining pins down.

"That's unusual."

I told Devon with a laugh. I went back over to my chair and sat back down.

"You're pretty good," I told her. "Are you sure you're not trying to hustle me?" I asked with a laugh.

"I swear to God, I am not good at bowling."

I replied with a laugh of my own. I sucked at bowling; actually, I was beyond 'sucking'. I was so horrible that whoever was bowling with me would always end up loudly laughing at my lack of talent.

"What just happened was pure luck."

"Or maybe you're better than you thought," I said as I got up and got my ball out. I rolled it and got another strike. "You've got a lot of talent for the game."

"Talent? I don't think so."

I laughed and shook my head. Devon was the one who had talent, given that he had gotten two strikes in a row just now.

"You're the one who is good at bowling. Do you ever miss?"

I got up and took my next turn, knocking down eight pins. My second turn got me an additional pin.

"Every once in a while," I said as I got up. "Here, let me show you a few pointers. Take the ball."

I put in her hands and stood behind her, putting my arms over hers. "Now, just move with me and get ready to throw the ball."

"What if I step on your feet or something?"

I stuttered. I was not used to having a guy's arms around me like this. I had one short boyfriend, Max and Dillon be this close to me before. Well, my family members too, but that didn't really count.

"Or drop the bowling ball on one of your feet."

"Don't worry," I told her as I guided her hand. "It'll be alright. Now, just let the ball go when I tell you."

"Okay; I can do that."

I quietly replied. I forced myself to focus on the lane and to keep my composure. I refused to look like a complete fool because I wasn't used to being this close to a guy, especially one that I hadn't known for years on end.

"Alright," I said as I guided her down the alley. "Let the ball go. Don't toss it, but roll it."

"Roll the ball...got it."

I replied with a small smile. I sucked in a deep breath, let it out and gentle rolled the ball down the lane with his help. I watched as the ball traveled down the alley and knocked over all of the pins.

"Oh my god! Did you see that? I just got my first strike ever!"

Without thinking, I jumped into his arms and wrapped my arms around him in a hug.

"See? I told you that you had it in you," I said she suddenly hugged me. It was unexpected, but I just went with it and returned it.

"Ahem," The guards said as they stood behind us.

"Dammit, just when we were having fun," I said.

"Devon, we need to talk to you," The guard said as he looked at Abby. "Alone."

I gave the guard an icy glare and crossed my arms. I did not take to being basically ordered away too well. If Devon wanted me to leave, then I'd go. Otherwise, I was staying right where I was.

"I'm staying unless Devon wants me to to go."

"Anything you can say to me, you can say to her," I told them. "So say it and get lost."

"Your father is dead, Devon," The guard said. "He died this afternoon."

"What? No, he can't-" I said as my voice started to shake.

I couldn't believe that Devon's dad was dead. I had no idea what it was like to lose a parent, but it must be hell to deal with that kind of a loss. I had no idea what to do, or what to say to Devon right now, so I just laid a comforting hand on his shoulder.

"He can't be gone," I whispered as I felt Abby's hand on my shoulder.

"You need to come with us, we need to get you into hiding before your father's enemies come for you," The guard said.

"I- I can't," I told them. "I don't want to hide."

I didn't want Devon to hide either, because I was really enjoying getting to know him, but I knew that his safety came first. As much as I didn't like his guards, they made a good point.

"You better protect yourself Devon. Your father would want that."

I quietly told him. I looked between the guards and then over at Devon.

"I- I don't know if I can," I told her. "You're my only friend, Abby. I don't know if I can leave you after all the fun we've had."
