date.” Kyli eased off the tension around Zack’s neck. She kissed his cheek firmly.
    Relieved, Zack took a deep breath and sighed. “I thought you wanted to kill me, Kyli. What was that for?” Zack wasn't worried about what Kyli was anymore, just that she didn't intend to kill him.
    “To show you that it’s not a bad thing to be afraid sometimes. To know that there are some things out there that will always be stronger than you. To accept that and still live on regardless of what might happen. Perseverance, It’s what lets you know you’re still human, that we’re still human, deep down. That it doesn't matter what we do, but how we choose to do things.” Kyli’s tone dropped, what she said had saddened her. Kyli had remembered a moment in her life that had greatly upset her. Something that Zack wasn’t about to just take a stab at and try to fix.
    To change the subject, Zack spoke up. Hoping some banter might take Kyli's mind off her worries. “Not to change the subject, but what about me? My dad doesn’t even know I’m gone. For Christ sake, I was kidnapped last night. He’ll figure it out eventually. And what the hell am I supposed to say about everything that happened to me? He'll freak. Knowing him, we might move as soon as next week if he thinks my life is in danger.”
    “It is.” Kyli stated assuredly.
    “It is?” Zack became frantic again.
    Kyli turned to Zack. “Listen, Zack. You can’t tell him. You have to take this slowly. We need a little time together.”
    Kyli leaned towards him, her body curvaceously calling to Zack's eyes.
    “Together?” Zack perked up.
    Kyli snapped her fingers. “Focus, Zack.”
    Zack thought about the situation for a second. He got angry again. “What do you mean ‘I can’t tell him’? I think the hole in my leg will do a little more than raise an eyebrow or two.” Zack straightened his glasses.
    “Let me take care of you first. Then we’ll talk to your dad together about what happened here.” Kyli was dismissing Zack's fears.
    “Then you'll help explain things?” Zack wanted to be sure before he agreed to anything.
    “Of course I'll explain.” Kyli was treating Zack like a child. Telling him everything was going to be okay.
    Kyli started the engine. It roared, far louder than what a person might think it would from the look of the flashy station wagon. She put the automatic car into gear and they rolled out of the back alleyway and onto the street.
    Zack scrambled for the seatbelt. He buckled himself with haste. Kyli wasn’t wearing one. She hadn't bothered to reach for it.
    Zack commented. “You know that’s dangerous.”
    Kyli smiled. “Only if we crash in the daylight and only if you’re not around.”
    Confused, Zack asked. “What do I have to do with you putting on your seat belt?”
    Kyli swiftly placed her right hand onto Zack's chest and pushed him back into his seat with a single finger, her lissome ability showed well. She turned to him for a moment and smirked. “Exactly.”
    Zack kept quiet for a minute.
    They drove a few miles down the road, into downtown Gainesville.
    “Where are you taking me?” Zack wasn't familiar with the neighborhood.
    “To a place where we can heal you, nice and quickly.” Kyli’s smile was stretching ear to ear with the thought of messing with Zack further.
    “Are you studying to be a doctor or do you plan on having someone make a house visit?” Zack complained.
    “No, there'll be no doctor seeing you. Why'd you ask?” Kyli's reply was playful and carefree.
    “I need to be seen by a doctor, not someone that wants to play one.” Zack argued.
    “So now you want to play doctor? Zack, I didn't know you had it in you to ask.” Kyli was toying with Zack. “Don't get so flustered. I told you I'd take care of you.”
    Pessimistically. “So you’re telling me that tomorrow I’m 'gonna be able to do jumping jacks?” Zack didn’t believe it for a second.
    “No.” Kyli paused. “I’m saying that
