As soon as Polaris had mentioned there was something wrong Emileeâ€™s senses seemed to heighten a bit and she had to use every bit of self control to not look around the area. No need to alert whoever or whatever was there that she and Polaris were on to them. Was there someone or something following them? It really began to make her feel a little sick thinking about it no matter how much she did her best to push it all aside. Perhaps they were just overreacting and someone was just creeping on them randomly but something told her she should doubt that. Had they been followed by someone; surely if they were followed then she would have known by now. There had not been anything suspicious from the gas station as far as she knew. But there was definitely something thereâ€¦ something that told her they should probably leave before something bad happened.<br/><br/>â€œThe food is great!â€ Enthusiasm rang in her tone but it was forced. She was trying to pretend that nothing was wrong but to no avail. Eventually she gave up and gave Polaris a serious look. â€œIâ€™m finished eatingâ€¦ We should probably leave like right now. I donâ€™t like this one bit,â€ She whispered in a low voice so whoever was watching, if there really was someone, couldnâ€™t hear them. â€œI donâ€™t know if weâ€™re just being odd but now that youâ€™ve mentioned it, It really does feel like weâ€™re being watched or somethingâ€ Slowly she got up from the table and took the tray that they had their food on with her over to the garbage can. While she did that she casually looked around for anything suspicious. Nothing caught her eye but she just knew that something was there.<br/><br/>Maybe it was just some loser trying to creep on a teenage girl. There were a lot of those in the mall and in public in general so that wouldnâ€™t be surprising. Emilee has never encountered one herself but her friends have told her some gross stories. If their stalker turned out to be one of those creepers then maybe her uncle can just chase them away if the creep decided to follow her home; he could be pretty protective of her at times.<br/><br/>She led Polaris back through the store they had come in from and out to the parking lot as quickly, yet casually, as she could. It felt nice to be outdoors. If she had stayed in that food court any longer she might have went a little nuts. Having the sense that somebody might be watching you was not fun, and she could have sworn she still felt it out here as well. It was becoming more and more difficult to brush aside. â€œHey,â€ she said to Polaris quietly after they had reached the truck, â€œI need to head home before I pick up my car anywayâ€¦ so I think we should do that for now. I promise Iâ€™ll take you to the parkâ€¦ just not right now. I hope thatâ€™s alright with you.â€ The wariness practically oozed off her tongue as she spoke, her gaze further showing how uneasy she felt right now.<br/><br/>--------<br/><br/>The man let them leave instead of following them right away, getting up and going to his car a few minutes later. Once outside he watched them drive off before leaving the parking lot himself. There would be more opportunities where he could step in and get the girl away from Polaris. He would have to act quickly, however, knowing that they might become impatient with him should he fail to do his job right the first time. Right now he would return to the agency, form a plan of action, and then by the end of the day the star would be in his hands. A smile touched his lips. Those two were in for a really fun day, and he was going to make sure that he did not fail.
