Malia was asleep on my chest, her cheeks stained with dried tears. I hated seeing her like that, she looked so broken. Chuck was like her brother. They were inseparable. I know she blames herself and I will try everything in my power to make sure she doesn't. She's going to break herself if she does.
"Do you think she'll be okay?" Newt asked as he looked at me, sitting across from me. I sighed before responding "She's strong. She'll make it through." I say honestly. Newt nods at me before looking at Malia resting peacefully on my chest. She's so beautiful.
I tighten my hold on her waist. Not wanting to let her go. She means everything to me. I don't know what I would do if I lost her.
She stirs a bit before she slowly opens her eyes. She looks up at me, her green eyes staring into my brown ones. "Hey, you okay?" I question. Probably a stupid question to ask but I'm going to ask anyways.
She nods her head and forces a smile. I can tell. "Are you okay?" She asks. God I love her. She's so selfless. I nod at her with a smile and kiss the top of her head. I pull her into me so her back is against my chest as she sits between my legs. I wrap my arms around the front of her as she rests her head on my chest, she plays with my fingers trying to distract herself and I kiss the top of her head again.
The helicopter comes to a stop. Yells and shouts were heard from outside. The door swings open as men rush in and tells us to get out. I jump out of the helicopter and help Malia get down. Newt grabs her hand and takes her inside while I stay behind to try and wake Thomas up.

Newt and I run inside hand in hand. I turn my head to see Minho and Thomas running behind. They make it inside and the shutters close. While I was running I heard gun shots. What were they firing at?
My thoughts got cut off as a woman lead us to a room. When we went inside the women locked the door so we couldn't get out. What the hell? Why are we here? I turn around and see a table full of food. Usually I would be scoffing down that food but, with recent events I don't feel so hungry. "I call dibs on the rice" Frypan yells as he runs towards the table.
