We walk down the hallways as quiet as possible. Ashton leading us to the best exit he knows. Luke's hand is placed into mine, him squeezing every so often just to assure me.

Just as we see the door at the end of the hallway, an alarm goes off. We start sprinting. We run outside the door and we notice nurses starting to evacuate the building.

"We have to go into the woods. If we go anywhere near the city they will be able to find us and catch us a lot easier," Ashton states.

"If we go into the woods we will freeze to death." Luke points out. Ash smirks.

"While you were grabbing clothes and stuff for Ronnie, I was grabbing supplies." He points to the backpack.

"Let's just go." I manage to get out. Luke nods and we start running. I'm still barefoot but I barely feel the sticks and rocks stabbing my feet.

We hear screams behind us and Luke pulls me closer. "Do not look back it will only slow us down." Luke whispers to me. I nod and keep running.

Turning and twisting through the trees getting them off of our trail. We finally hear the yelling and dogs fade off into the distance.

We stop and I feel my legs buckle. As I start to fall Luke grabs me and helps me down more carefully. My feet are throbbing and when I look down at them, they're bleeding.

Ashton walks over with his backpack and pulls out some gauze and wraps my feet. Luke pulls out a pair of jeans, and a t-shirt.

He walks me over to a secluded area away from Ashton so I can get dressed. I slide on the clothes feeling a lot warmer. Luke then hands me a sweatshirt. My favorite one of his.

I sit down on the ground next to him, and wrap my arms around him. He slides his hand over my hair and pulls my head towards his lips and kisses it. He whispers, "I love you."

"I love you too." I whisper back before we walk back to our "camp" I guess you could say. I put on socks over my gauze and slide on my converse.
