His Secret Obsession
Chapter 64

(Asher)

"Okay baby, love you, have fun! I will miss you!" I said hurriedly, practically shoving my wide-eyed Em out the door, noticing how she hesitated for a moment before finally walking out.

Damn, she looks so f*****g beautiful right now..I wanted nothing more than to pull her right back into this room and tell her uncle to f**k off..but yeah, can't exactly do that. I know how much he does love her and how he wants to spend time with just her..even if he has turned into a completely overprotective psycho..he is Carson 2.0 I swear... Now that she has a boyfriend for the first time, it's almost like the beast inside of him has awoken and all that energy is being thrown at me..at least her dad is supportive. "I love you too." She added before I closed the door and watched through the peephole as she walked towards the stairs and headed to where her uncle was currently parked outside.

Just as I saw her get into the car, my phone chimed with a text notification and I already knew it was Carson before I even checked it.

From Carson: Come on before we lose them.

I hastily slipped on my Jordans before grabbing the spare key we had and raced out the door, locking it before I sprinted down the stairs toward Carson's truck. He was waiting just a little down the street so Em and Jack wouldn't see him and seemed to be crouching down in the seat..not like Jack wouldn't know the truck from a mile away if he spotted it..but hey, he was dedicated..I'll give him that.

"Okay let's go!" I whisper-yelled as soon as I slid into the truck and slammed the door.

"They just went left on Peterson..I think they are going to the theater downtown." Carson added before shifting the truck into drive and taking off.

I glanced over at him, noticing he had all black on, even his Jordans were black..

"Why do you look like you are about to rob a bank or something?" I scoffed, never seeing Carson wear so much black in my life.

"What's wrong with it? I will blend in with the dark..better than your red a*s popping out like a sore thumb." He stated, giving me side eye as I looked down at my red hoodie and matching shorts..yeah maybe red wasn't the best idea..

"I didn't have time to change." I muttered, looking straight ahead as Jack's bronco came into view.

"You really think this asshole might try to follow her today?" Carson asked, anger lacing his voice as he gripped the steering wheel tighter.

"I have no fucking clue..he obviously doesn't fear getting caught if he is taking pictures and sending that shit to her. So who knows what the hell he is capable of." I can't believe my girlfriend is being followed by this prick..if I could make him disappear, I f*****g would in a heartbeat..too bad I would go to prison for life..but that's why I am settling on getting more evidence, and giving the proof to the cops so we can get this asshole locked up.

"Is she going to tell her dad and Jack?" Carson glanced over at me and I nodded my head. We had a talk about it earlier and I convinced her that she needed to let them know. That way Jack can talk to the sheriff and get the ball rolling. Plus it would be good to have more people around to protect her.

"They just pulled into the parking lot. She looks like she is making a phone call." Carson informed me right as my phone began to ring, making my eyes widen as I shushed Carson and put the phone up to my ear.

"Hey baby, everything good?" I answered casually, trying to play it cool which made Carson roll his eyes as he stared out the window toward her.

"Yeah, just wanted to tell you we just got here and I love you. I am going to put my phone away for the movie so I won't be able to text you." She explained sweetly and I swear I almost melted into the damn seat just from her voice alone. I could see the way she twirled her hair with her finger from here and how she bit her lip softly. F**k me she was breathtaking..then my eyes flicked to her uncle as he pushed off the car and yanked the phone out of her hand.

"Okay Asher, she will talk to you later, bye!" and with that he hung up, making me glare across the parking lot at him. I saw how Emery yanked the phone back and scolded her uncle, her beautiful brow furrowing together as she poked a finger into his chest, making him laugh.

"He does not like you.." Carson added with a chuckle, making me shoot my glare his way now. How observant of him to notice..

"Yeah, weren't you supposed to be helping me out with that?" I asked coldly, darting my gaze back to Emery as they walked across the parking lot. Her hand hit her uncle in the arm playfully as he continued to laugh his ass off. Really, is it that damn funny? and why the hell is she so fucking cute when she is mad..

"What can I do?! I try to say something nice and it leads to an hour-long bash fest..by the end of it even I'm almost convinced you are a scumbag." He muttered making me snap my head toward him.

"What the hell dude, seriously?" I exclaimed making him shrug his shoulders sheepishly.

"Jack's a pretty persuasive dude.." He added before laughing and slapping me on the shoulder.

"He will warm up to it eventually, you just gotta prove to him that you are serious about Em. Which can only take time..but I see it man, even Mr. L does. Jack is just sad Emery's growing up." Carson explained, making me nod my head as I let out a deep sigh. "Yeah, I get it. Come on, we better go in." I said before opening the door and sliding out.

Suddenly I felt my phone vibrate as I glanced down and saw a text from Em.

From Kitten: Sorry babe, my uncle is being a jerk..I will make up for it later! love you and miss you already..wish you were here [

My heart began to ache as I reread the text, unable to hide my smile..I am closer than you think baby girl, so don't you worry. Damn, when did I become such an obsessed psycho? I can't help it..Em drives me crazy.

While walking into the theater, I made sure to check all around us and look out for Ethan's car, which was a black BMW, and didn't see it anywhere..but I won't drop my guard yet because he could still be here somewhere..

"No sign of him yet.." Carson whispered while slipping his hands into his pockets, his eyes scanning the parking lot just like my own.

"Let's go, they are probably sitting down now." I added, realizing this place was packed..there were people everywhere and here I was towering above all of them..I guess it's hard to blend in when you have a good foot on most people.

I scanned the sea of people as my eyes landed directly on Em's back, she was holding a large tub of popcorn as her uncle carried the drinks. Em got her usual cherry slushy and I couldn't help that jealousy from rising up as I wished it were me seeing the movie with her instead.

"Fuck she is turning around!" Carson whispered hastily, making me dive behind a large cut-out movie poster as I crouched down and pulled Carson in next to me.

He stumbled behind the cardboard stand, my hands gripping his shirt as I felt my heart racing, f**k that was close...she almost saw us..

I looked at Carson who was squatting next to me as we began to waddle our way to the edge of the poster, popping our heads out and coming face-to-waist with a stern-looking Emery..her hip was c*cked and her arms folded in front if her chest. "Seriously guys?" She stated firmly, making me swallow hard as I slowly stood, banging my head on the light fixture against the wall, making me wince.

Yeah, that didn't go as planned..

"We..uh, he....." What the hell, I can't even speak now?!

"We were coming to see a movie Em, nothing wrong with that right? Not like we followed you and Jack all the way from the house and were watching you or guys or anything..." Carson blurted, making my jaw drop as I slowly turned my head towards him and couldn't believe what the hell he just said. Was Carson always this bad at keeping secrets? What the hell dude!

"Mhm..just don't let Uncle Jack see you..he might officially snap." She responded before stepping forward and wrapping her arms around my waist and looked up into my wide eyes.

"You will be punished for this later baby." She whispered, making me swallow hard as she reached up on her tiptoes and placed a delicate kiss on my lips..leaving me stunned and slacked jawed as I watched the form of my sexy ass girlfriend walk away from us. "Well..it's official, we suck at this." Carson said while throwing his hands up in the air..yeah, I guess being 6'8" and 6'3" basketball players doesn't quite make it easy for us to sneak around..but why am I suddenly looking forward to this so called punishment? What could my kitten possibly have planned for me? I can't fucking wait to replace out..that for sure.
