your safe now..

~chapter 7~

    hunter was staring up at the old wood roof, he was laying on a sleeping bag or at least that's what luz  called it. he lost track of time, rascal was laying on his chest and his chest when up and down slowly. his breathing relaxed.

       He was honestly just thinking of what had happened in the time of 2- no wait 1? he had lost track of the days,how many minutes passed, what time was it?

his mind  wondered ignoring how he had completely lost the time ' this is bad! will i have a bounty on my head??? uncle is probably mad..
crap! i'm going to be in so much trouble! what was i thinking?? i owe everything to the coven and i betrayed uncle like this??? lilith will probably turn me in if there is a bounty on top of my head; the hu- luz  would be sad probably talk about how the coven is bad and i shouldn't go back. she's doesn't know what she's talking about.the coven isn't bad. and why shouldn't i go back?? it's my home! the only one i have ever known and-.' he was pulled out of his spiraling by a knock on the door

   "ummmm... can i.. can i come in..?" the voice was a female voice it had a hint of awkwardness to it but it had a familiar  determination to it to... AMITY..

"uhh s-sure?" hunter said rascal had already woken up and moved to hunter hair and hunter stood up.

the purple-haired girl walked in the room "umm so i wanted to talk to you.." hunters face turned to confusion but the purple-haired girl continued "i wanted to talk to you after.... ya know, the lake umm incident.." ah hunter understood now 'she thinks that me being here is a trap.'he thought

hunter sighed "listen what i said about i know where to find your human- it was... uh kinda just a thing i said to make you hand over the key so-." he tried to lie-explain but amity interrupted him

      "Not that!!" she shouted her eyes resting between shocked and horror "I'm Talking About How You Were Digging Your-. . . grave... rather than going to belos empty handed.." she said the last part almost like she was sorry for him

he looked at her then brushed it off "... oh and that there's that." he said flatly

"that's not healthy!" amity yelled

"is for me." hunter said calmly

"It shouldn't! listen i know the coven isn't the best place but-."

"why does everyone say that.." hunter says sounding defeated sitting down on the floor rascal moving to his knee.

amity sighs "because it's not a good place.. lilith went to town and.." she sat down in front of him.

". . . and..?" hunter questioned

amity let out a semi-shaky breath "they already have a price on you..." she said and got the courage to look up at him. his eyes- his face were unreadable.

"how much?" he asked seemly unbothered

"umm 5,000,000.." she answered

his eyes widened he felt uncomfortable no one would turn down that offer.. " FIVE MILLON SNAILS?!"
he narrowed his eyes. "wait. if they have a price on me that means theres a wanted poster. correct?" he said bringing his hand up to his chin.

amity nodded

"did she bring the wanted poster here?" he said in a voice that was to calm for amity- well considering the situation.

amity nodded again

he had been looking straight in here eyes but before he asked the last question he fixed his eyes on the old wood floor. he swallowed hard.

"dead or alive..?" the said this time his voice shaking a bit. he lifted his eyes but not his head he was looking at amity again.

amity looked at him with... wait was that... sympathy?! " exactly. dead. . . . or alive..." she answered.

hunter look at her a second more he brought his hands up one on each side of his head they lead up to his hair and he pulled at his hair. "damn."

chirp...: u ok....? rascal chirped with concern

"fuck.. yea sure." hunter replied.

"hey hunter..." amity said

he stopped pulling his hair and put his hands down and looked at her "what."

"... lilith wanted to talk to you..
like she wants to talk to you downstairs.."

hunter gave an unimpressed but annoyed look "of fucking course she does." he said then they both stood up and headed downstairs.

NOTES
(ok i know i made amity maybe a bit to concerned for hunter especially bc how mad she acted in the beginning of the story i think i made her a but to worry some LOL but it's fine.)
