The Escape.

I struggled to awake even though Kenley was practically punching me.

She was chanting my name into my ear at a whisper.

"Destani!! Destani get up please! Hurry! Wake up!!"

I tried to push my arms up, but I couldn't.

I managed to get my eyes open and whine I did I saw Kenley's face.

It was red and she had huge bags under her eyes.

Her cheeks were plastered with tears.

What had I missed? I thought.

Destani finally hurry get up.

I tried and tried I just couldn't get anything to move.

I tried to tell her but nothing came out.

My lips just moved like those of a cartoon character.

She looked around some.

I don't know why, but when she first moved her head I realized it was day.

The store lights weren't on but the sunlight poured through the front doors.

It flooded the store, seeping through cracks in the shelves and crawling along the walls, floor and ceiling.

She shook me and I coughed up something.

It was round and squishy it was like a rubber marble.

It had a T on it but we didn't know what it stood for.

I could now speak and got some words out.

"I can't move Kenley, I keep trying, but I can't get anything to move tell me what's wrong."

"We need to get out Destani, right now! Milk isn't at the register anymore!"

"What?!" I screamed.

"First of all be quite, and I said Milk is g..."

I'm cut her off just then.

"I heard you, but it's hard to believe."

She nodded her head slightly and grabbed my hands.

She pulled me to my feet.

Some how once I was standing I was able to regain some strength and move a little.

I stood making the same jerky movements until they began longer and steadier.

We ran along the back wall until we could see the door.

It was cracked open a bit and there was no sign of the thug.

We decided to make a run fore it.

We were about a foot away when a hand smacked the center of it and slammed it shut.

Then a person stepped in front.

It was none other than the Milk thug.

"Hahaha, if it isn't Destani and Kenley. I knew you too would try to escape. I was just going to go get some breakfast and maybe leave the store closed for the day. so of course I have to leave the door locked so you two don't leave. I need to discuss some things with you when I get back so you two won't be going anywhere."

We just turned and walked away like we were ignoring him.

We were both getting hungry so we went down a food aisle in search of something to eat.

We kept glancing over at the doors every once and a while to see if Milk had left.

He stood there for a few minutes .

Those minutes seemed like hours.

He had his green eyes glaring at us.

When he left we grabbed the best thing on the shelf and walked over to the door.

Throughout all this I forgot about my dream until we started pounding on the doors.

"My dream! That's it we can do what I did in my dream!"

"What did you do in your dream?"

"Well, WE took heavy things like tools from the back of the store and threw them at the door to break the glass."

"What are we waiting for then? Let's get to it!"

We grabbed as many wrenches and things from the supplies section the the store.

We threw them as hard as we could and it did nothing.

Many cars had passed by the store as well so I'm surprised they didn't see us.

That's when a blue Toyota began to slow down.

They were at the stop sign just passed the store.

They stopped letting some cars pass them on the highway.

Only moments later they backed up and pulled into the parking lot.

A boy got out of the car.

He had short brown hair and looked really familiar.

Keep mumbled something but I couldn't quite hear.

"What did you say?"

She looked at me and then back at the boy approaching.

"It's Bennett."

I was surprised when she said that and at the same time grossed out.

I actually though this kid was attractive and it turned out to be, the who I called "fugly", Bennett from my friend Kalie's old school.

He must've changed a lot in the past few months cause now I thought he was hot and I was practically drooling over him, but not really.

He was smokin hot though.

He came to the doors and searched for a key.

He needed up finding one three feet away in a rose bush.

What a great place to hide a key.

He unlocked the doors while keeping his eyes on Kenley.

Was my best friend gonna end up going out with my California hottie.

(He wasn't actually from California but he looked like he could have been.)

That's when he turned to look at me.

We approached each other slowly and dramatically like in the movies.

I leaned towards him and he leaned closer to me.

We met in the middle for a kiss.

It was long he grabbed my face like people in movies do when they make out.

I reached back.

I'm not sure how long the kiss was.

It seemed like forever.

When we ended out luxurious kiss we both pulled away slowly.

"Thanks for rescuing us." I said awkwardly.

"Yeah no problem I was just on my way to Texas and I happened to come through here and I saw you guys."

"Well thank you!" Kenley said.

"Now are you guys down smooching I would love to go somewhere far from here."

Bennett smirked alright alright.

He put his arm around my waist and I turned and hugged him once more.

"I bet you guys could come to Texas with me. I don't think my dad will care."

We walked out to the care together.

Me and Bennett holding hands and Kenley standing a foot away texting our parents on her new phone.
