    “ I'm telling you, it was an inside job,” she goes on passionately.  
    Who knew someone so cute could be a nutty conspiracy theorist. If he believed half the things she's said, he would live in an underground bunker, wearing a haz-mat suit.
    “ So why did you decide to learn how to fight?” he asks.  
    She laughs and says, “Sydney has a way of landing right into trouble. Sometimes she just says exactly the wrong thing, and other times she flirts with the wrong guy. After I saw a huge chick body slam her, I decided it was a matter of time before one of us got seriously hurt.”
    Jackson thought it was because of what that man had tried to do to her when she was sixteen.
    “ Why didn't she learn how to take care of herself then?” he asks.  
    “ She tried, but she is literally the laziest person out there. The sensei kicked her out after she fell asleep in class. Three times,” she says.  
    He holds back a laugh. In fact, he can't remember laughing as much since the last time they were together.
    “ Sadie, do you want something to eat? We won't stop for a few more hours,” he says.  
    They've been on the road for seventeen hours, stopping only for gas or restroom breaks. So far they have taken a few detours in case they are being followed and that makes the trip much longer.  
    She looks him over with a worried expression on her stunning face. Even with her red hair all over the place, and bags under her eyes, she looks beautiful.
    “ You must be exhausted. Are you sure we can't stop so you can get some sleep?” she asks.  
    “ I think it's best if we drive through the day. It will be easier to stay awake that way,” he answers.  
    “ You could let me drive,” she offers, “I've gotten better since that time you gave me that lesson.”  
    He isn't willing to risk that. If he doesn't die from her driving, he'd still have a heart attack. The last time, they had started out in a safe, abandoned parking lot. She'd managed to land them in the middle of a busy high way, on the wrong side of the road, before finding the only lake in a 50-mile radius and almost plunging them in it.
    “ I'm sure you have, but you're just as tired as I am,” he says, relieved to have an excuse.  
    “ Okay, but stop when you see an exit. I'm starving.” she says.  
    Eight hours later...
    After checking into the only hotel in the small town, they park the truck in front of their room and get their stuff out.
    His whole body is sore from sitting in one position so long.
    “ Are you taking everything in?” He asks as he sees she plans to do exactly that.  
    “ No you are,” she answers smiling.  

Chapter Eighteen
    Sadie
     
     
    “ Do you like my new hair?” Sadie shows off her freshly dyed locks. After a few hours of sleep, she'd decided to dye her hair, while Jackson did some things on his laptop. Instead of red, her hair is now a silver blonde that is much closer to her natural color than what she has had in years.  
    Jackson lays on the bed, fresh and rested. He looks up from his laptop, and a smile spreads across his face.  
    “ That isn't exactly inconspicuous, but you look beautiful. Even with weird colored hair,” he prevents her from answering by pulling her into a fierce kiss.  
    Forgetting his last comment, she returns the kiss enthusiastically. Groaning into her mouth, he lifts her with ease, and she wraps her legs around him. Instead of carrying her towards the bed, he turns and pushes her against the wall.
    Sadie breaks away from the kiss breathing heavily, she asks, “What is it with you and walls? There's a perfectly good bed two feet behind you.”
    She runs her hand down his back, stopping at his tight behind and urging him closer.
    “ It's not the wall, it's you. You make me forget there's a bed. Fuck, this feels amazing,” he says.  
    Then he leans down for another hungry kiss. This is not good, well Jackson is too good.
    That is exactly the problem. She
