�Come here!� the dark haired man yelled when she tried to get away. Kat knew that she should try and break this up. She headed in the direction of the pier when she saw something shiny in his right hand. Before she took another step the man pulled the trigger, not once but many times.
Kat watched helplessly as the girl fell to the ground. She noticed the man start to look around, Kat ducked quickly behind a 55 gallon drum so that he wouldn�t see her. �Please god, let her be ok� Kat prayed as she sat behind the barrel. She waited until she heard the man�s car start and pull off. She reached in her pocket and pulled out her cell, quickly dialing 911.
�No� Kat screamed, sitting straight up on the couch. Kasey was startled and sat up. He noticed Kat was sobbing; he quickly wrapped his arms around her and started stroking her back. �Shhhh its ok sweetie� he whispered, trying to calm her. �Kasey it was so horrible, why did he have to do that to her?� Kasey couldn�t believe that Kat still had dreams about the incident that happened two years prior.
Within minutes Kat had already cried herself to sleep. Kasey glanced up at the clock and realized that it was already 1:30. He placed his head back down and wrapped his arm around Kat protectively.

�Kasey wake up� Kat said, lightly tapping him on the forehead. Kasey groaned and put the couch pillow over his face. Kat chuckled, knowing that he was always a monster in the mornings. She finally decided to wake him up the way she used to. Chuckling, she made her way across the room and into the kitchen. She opened the freezer and pulled out an ice cube. When she made her way back to the living room, Kasey had fallen back to sleep.
Kat chuckled again at the thought of what she was about to do. She lightly sat down on the couch next to him and slowly moved her hand down his stomach. Without looking, she pulled up the waistband of his boxers and quickly tossed the ice cube down his pants. Kasey screamed and shot up �Kat!� he said, standing up to try and get the ice cube to fall out of his pants. Kat just fell back on the couch, laughing hysterically at Kasey as he was jumping around.
�Damn there is one thing I didn�t miss about you!� Kasey said, finally watching the ice fall to the floor. �Yeah right Kahne, you know you missed everything about me� she chuckled, and stood up. �I need a shower� she said, walking towards the bathroom. �Ok well, I need to get back to the track anyways. We have practice today but it is nice not having to race 2 races this weekend� Kasey smirked. �But I will be back, if you want� he said walking towards her. Kat nodded, she was supposed to work tonight but she was all of a sudden not feeling well. �Ok, I will see you tonight then� Kasey said, leaning in to give her a kiss on the cheek but instead finding her lips.
When they broke apart, the look of shock registered on both of their faces. �Um, ok. See you tonight� Kasey said, walking off towards his truck. When he got in he took a deep breath �What the hell was that? Did I just kiss Kat?� he groaned inwardly at the thought. Ever since they were little Kasey had a tiny crush on her but he always cherished their friendship too much to do anything about it. Kasey shrugged it off, thinking that maybe she would do the same.
Driving back to the track he tried to avoid thinking about the kiss between him and Kat but it was obviously no use. His thoughts were consumed with everything about that moment, especially the electricity he felt when his lips brushed hers. �Come on Kase, get a grip this is Kat we are talking about here� he said, turning into the coach area of the track.
Kasey got out of his truck and went straight into his coach, shedding his clothes for a shower. He was about to close the bathroom door when he heard Kale�s voice. �Hey Big Bro, bout time you came home� he said, half joking. �Yeah I stayed at a friends last night� Kasey answered trying to shut the door so he could end the conversation. �Who?� Kale asked, curiously. Kasey rolled his eyes, �Just some girl I met� he answered, finally shutting the door so Kale would stop talking to him. Kale sat back, Kasey was never one to go home with random girls. �There is something weird going on and i'm sure as hell going to find out what� Kale said to himself.
