She leaned ahead, taking an extended look, a small smile enjoying on her lips.

This wasn’t an unusual incidence in Blacksburg and the encompassing cities. The Ghosttown Riders Bike Membership had taken up residency years in the past, lengthy earlier than she moved into city. Whereas they normally stayed below the radar and shied away from the city festivities, it wasn’t uncommon to see just a few driving round. There was a sure shock to her coronary heart each time she caught a glimpse of 1. Perhaps it was the badass vibe or the lengthy hair and tats. No matter it was, it at all times appeared to seize her consideration. And right now was no completely different.

The nook of her mouth curled. She sat up straight and cut up her imaginative and prescient between the lane and watching the motorbike on her left. The street was empty beside her automotive, and the bike was gaining velocity and pulling up on her facet.

Is it simply me, or do all girls perk up from the sound of a rumbling engine? There was one thing about males on bikes that gave her trigger to take a seat up straighter, jut out her breasts, and verify her hair. If given sufficient time, she would have added a sweep of gloss on her lips. She gauged his velocity as she glanced within the mirror. She additionally took in his look. If she needed to guess, he’d be sufficiently old to be her dad. By some means, it didn’t deter her pleasure. She casually glanced over as he handed. His gaze was skilled on the street in entrance of him.

Nothing. Actually?

She slouched in her seat. It was disappointing. Her love life had tanked a yr in the past when she walked in on her boyfriend banging a coworker. Her coworker. It was disastrous and ugly and took a heavy toll on her shallowness. Dishonest was, and at all times had been, her deal breaker.

She was due for a lift of shallowness, however she wasn’t going to get it. Not from this man.

He sped in entrance of her, and he or she caught sight of the three-piece rocker. Ghosttown Riders. She launched a silent sigh. They have been infamous in her space. Occasionally, she had piqued the curiosity a few times from a membership member, however nothing greater than a lingering look. A hell of much more than this man had given her. He’s sufficiently old to be my dad. Even that blaring reality didn’t diminish her disappointment. Not even a glance? He wasn’t precisely her dream man at forty years her senior, however he may have thrown her a bone with a easy look her manner.

I’m pathetic.

She glanced down on the clock, ignoring the biker forward. She wanted to make up a while. She pressed more durable on her gasoline pedal. Not for the good thing about catching as much as biker man, however to dodge the wrath of her mom for being later than standard.

She rounded the bend and let off the gasoline. The steep decline would give her sufficient velocity, and making the sharp turns via the valley was suicidal at something greater than sixty. She remained in her lane and caught a flash from her left once more. A smooth, darkish blue sedan was developing on her quick. She widened her eyes. This automotive was going manner too quick. Undoubtedly not an area. The large hill and harsh turns have been sufficient to sluggish most drivers down, however not this one. She flickered her hazards in hopes of giving some warning, however it wasn’t heeded—the automotive handed her sooner than the motorbike earlier than her.

She caught a fast glimpse. It was a person, most likely not a lot older than her. His cheeks have been hollowed, and a reasonably large bump protruded on the bridge of his nostril. As he handed, she seen a distinguished, raised scar rippled down his brow, and his darkish hair was pulled right into a ponytail on the nape of his neck. She twisted her lips. A pink hair tie? She chuckled, half questioning if he even realized how absurd he appeared.

She stored her gaze glued to the automotive, glancing down on the license plate. Yep, out of towner. She ought to report him as quickly as she obtained to her mother’s home. Folks like him had no place on these roads, driving like an asshole. She watched the motorbike within the distance because the sedan caught as much as him. She waited for the brake lights on the automotive to shine, however it by no means occurred. As an alternative, it shifted to the fitting on the curve.

“Decelerate,” she muttered, utterly fixated on the automotive swerving dangerously near the motorbike.

Her coronary heart pounded, watching the scene unfold. Cheyenne gripped her steering wheel. “Oh, my God.”

She gasped because the sedan sideswiped the motorbike right into a tailspin throughout the street.

She sucked in a harsh breath once more, not absolutely believing what she noticed. “Oh, my God. Oh, my God!” she screamed as her physique shook.

She’d by no means been witness to a automotive accident. It was horrific because it performed out in sluggish movement proper earlier than her eyes. The motorbike shot out from below the biker and careened over the embankment. She stared in horror as the person slid throughout the asphalt, nearing the identical path of his bike.

Her fingers shook as she grasped the wheel tightly, and her coronary heart raced. The biker had come to a halt, barely reaching the guardrail. Her first intuition was to lean over and really feel for her cellphone in her purse. Her gaze was glued to the scene in entrance of her.

She raced ahead, slamming on her brakes as she pulled to the half shoulder, about fifty toes from the biker mendacity on the street. She threw the automotive into Park and jumped out, leaving her door broad open. She sprinted to the person who was face down on the asphalt. He was useless. He needed to be. There was no manner even a superhero may have survived the wreck. The pounding of her coronary heart was blazing via her eardrums. She stopped about ten toes away. He wasn’t transferring. She bit her lip and scanned the street. It was simply her and him. What do I do?

Assist him. She froze, questioning the place the voice had come from. It took solely a second to acknowledge it as her personal. She rushed ahead.

As she neared, she slowed down. Blood was in all places. Oh God. She stopped wanting his physique. Her fast perusal would without end be ingrained in her thoughts. She’d always remember this. His fingers have been bloodied to a pulp. The flesh was so uncooked it appeared like floor meat. Her abdomen curled as she inched ahead. This man wanted a health care provider, a surgeon. Oh God, he wanted a miracle if he had any probability of surviving. None of which she may present. She drove her fingers via her hair, tugging sharply on the ends. I don’t know what to do.

Assist him.

Cheyenne dropped to her knees, her physique visibly shaking. She unfold her fingers out and reached ahead, hovering over his again. Ought to she attempt to roll him over? What if his neck was damaged? She remembered the essential guidelines of driver’s ed. Don’t transfer the physique, or it’s possible you’ll trigger extra injury. She glanced up the street. It was utterly desolate. However he was mendacity in the course of the lane. If a automotive got here, he would possibly get hit if the motive force couldn’t see him. I ought to transfer him. No, don’t transfer him. She squeezed her eyes shut. A darkish dread unfold via her physique. “Oh God, what do I do?” she muttered.

Nothing may have ready her for this. She glanced up and over her shoulder. There was nobody to assist; it was all on her. His solely hope was her. She gulped a breath and flinched when she heard a faint, pained grunt. She leaned nearer however kept away from touching him.

“You-you’re okay,” she stammered. It was one other bald-faced lie. He wasn’t okay, not even near okay. It was a miracle he was even alive. She reached out however nonetheless didn’t contact him. What ought to I do? One other faint moan pressured her to put her hand gently on his again, not making use of any stress. “Simply attempt to keep nonetheless. I’m going to name for assist.” She swallowed the lump in her throat, forcing out one other lie. “You’re gonna be okay, simply dangle on.” He made no additional sound, and his physique was nonetheless. Had she simply heard his final breath? Oh, my God.

She scrambled to her toes and ran to her automotive, mendacity over the motive force’s facet to seize her cellphone. Her fingers have been trembling so laborious, the easy activity of dialing was almost inconceivable. She stored her gaze on the person within the street. The 2 rings appeared to take without end.

“9-1-1, what’s your emergency?”

“We’d like assist, ship an ambulance to Route 417, the Belgium Street exit, and quick. This man…oh God…it’s unhealthy.” Her phrases have been rushed and probably incoherent. Tears threatened her eyes. “It’s so unhealthy,” she uttered, barely in a position to get the phrases out. She drew in a breath, and her face heated.

“Ma’am, I would like you to relax and inform me what occurred.”
