「 chapter 25 」
_______________I'm awaken in the cold, immediately noticing the freezing air on my face and a hand on my shoulder, shaking me gently.
My eyes open to see Rick kneeling over me, "Hey, you ready to go? Sun just came up." He asks.I groan at him.
"Can't I sleep more? it's freezing.""Nope, time to leave." He answers bluntly, standing up.
Rolling my eyes, I sit up and feel my joints crack. I didn't get much sleep, it was too cold and obviously wasn't comfortable, I'm going to be exhausted today.As I look around while rubbing my left eye, I notice golden rays peeking through the windows and the door on the other side of the room, the sun is only just coming up and everyone else is just getting ready to leave.
"Let's go, kid." I hear Rick above me, I look up to see him walk away.
I sigh before standing and putting my back pack on. I realise I'm the last one to get up, pressuring me to pick up my pace as I see the others walking out with their belongings, I follow them in a hurry.
Outside, the air is colder and a icy breeze hits my face, I see two cars, the motor home and a small battery car covered in ice. Everyone is standing around them discussing something, I'm assuming they're deciding who's going in what car.
I decide to head towards them, zipping my hoodie up the whole way.
I spot a man I don't recognise, must be Eric, he's leaning on one foot next to Aaron, I overheard someone say he broke his ankle when I was falling asleep last night.Aaron caches my eyes and smiles a little, putting up one hand to wave at me. I give a small smile back, then him and Eric hobble towards me.
I sigh mentally."Ellie, right?" He asks as he gets closer.
"Yeah." I shove my hands into my hoodie pockets.
"This is Eric, you didn't get a chance to meet him last night so I thought I'd introduce him to you now." He tells me, my gaze switches from him to his boyfriend."Hi there." Eric says, very enthusiastically, especially for a man with a broken ankle.
I give him a small smile, "I hear you broke your ankle, it must be sore."
"Oh? Where did you hear that?" Eric asks me. I wanted to raise an eyebrow at him, why must I be questioned about this?
"I over heard someone say it last night." I shrug with one shoulder, unsure of what he expects me to say.
He nods at me, "Eavesdropping, are we?" Eric smiles. "I said overheard." I remind him, defending myself.
He smirks at me, "It's okay, I was sneaky when I was a kid too." I roll my eyes at him."So Ellie, where are you from?" Eric changes the subject, noticing my attitude.
"Uh, Boston."
