Tapping my foot while I waited for him, I analysed every single person that came out the school door.

Chase finally walked through the double doors of the school and sauntered towards me.

"Sorry I'm late." He said as he came to a stop a meter in front of me "You ready to go?"

"Sure." I replied before turning around and getting ready to walk towards the quarterback's car.

I was in disbelief that it was that easy. I was in disbelief that the giant had decided to let me go after all.

That changed suddenly.

The world turned upside down in a blink of an eye.

A bulky arm wrapped around my waist before hoisting me up.

It took a few seconds to realise where I was and how I had gotten there.

My stomach rested on a strong shoulder while the rest of my body slumped over against the huge muscular back.

Stone had appeared so quickly that it was like he was lurking in the shadows and waiting for his opportunity to pounce.

Before I could protest, the giant began to walk away with me hunched over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.

His back was to the school, and it gave me a clear view of the shocked quarterback as I got carried away.

Chase shouted towards us "Dude, what are you doing?"

No reply came from Stone. Nothing apart from a series of grunts and gnarls.

"Let me down!" I shouted in protest.

The vice-like arm on my waist tightened as the man carrying me grumbled "No."

"Let me down now, Lurch!"

"No." He released from his chest gutturally "You are the only thing keeping me from painting the sidewalk with his blood."

I fought him every step of the way. I thrashed wildly against him and pounded my fists firmly but carefully into his back as I remained over his shoulder.

Nobody dared to stop him. Every person in the school lot stepped out of the giant way's way with an open mouth and widened eyes. They all did nothing as they watched the caveman steal his plaything.

"You big brute!" I shouted as he tightened his grip around my waist as he carried me to his truck "You gorilla sized idiot! You overgrown man! You large kidnapper!"

I was scared of heights.

He unlocked his truck and opened the passenger side door. He carefully placed me on the seat before locking the door. He unlocked the truck again when he got around to his side and climbed into the driver's seat.

Stone gripped onto the steering wheel as a low-pitched noise left his throat.

"What do you think you are doing?" I shouted accusingly at him "This is kidnapping!"

Finally turning to me, Stone finally grumbled "Your car is fixed."

"I have heard that one before." I scoffed while rolling my eyes "Even if I did believe you, which I don't, what kind of customer service involves kidnapping a person?"
