The car pulled up directly in front ofinto my dash The rain was so thick I couldn't make out the car at all Probably an ax murderer

The driver got out of his car and cah the rain, I recognized the person It was Ian, wearing his arear

I leaned over and unlocked the door to let him in The sound of the rain outside was intense as he threw himself into the chair

“What are you doing here?” I asked A thrill tangled up in my stomach I wanted it to be him and I didn't want him to be here all at once

“You didn't co perfectly reasonable “And you weren't answering your phone”

I looked down at my cup-holder to see my phone had several missed calls I hit the sound button and realized it was on silent Oops

“And so you just caet me?”

“Nah” Ian shrugged “I thought I'd just drive around in a tornado”

A peal of thunder echoed down the road as if accenting his words

“Thanks,” I said, feeling a warlow come over me No one had ever rescued me before

“I was afraid you were trapped out on one of those trail

“My car's stuck in theand I can't get any traction”

He nodded “Want a ride home?”

I almost said yes immediately My rule of thuIt would be just like hiet back here
