Tim and I talk for a little while after making it back to the tunnel. He told me about what it was like without me by his side, relentlessly annoying him. I told him the same.

We are both trying to be better as who we are. Im not sure what exactly he needs to work on because he is perfect in my eyes in every way. But I know i need to work on myself and learning to cope with everything in my life along with what ive done.

For a moment its silent, until he stands. Tim walks over to the exit of the tunnel, "stay here for a moment"

I nody head and face towards the t.v. South Park is playing. I feel so calm in this very moment. Happy even. I softly smile to myself, genuinely.

Letting out a sigh of content. I let the chair recline, my eyes closing and a tear staining my cold cheek.

Im jolted awake by Tim. He pats my shoulder, one hand behind his back, "I went and got something"

I lift my head up and rub my dry eyes, "what is it?" I try to peek over his shoulder but im too tired to move very much. I habent gotten much sleep in the past week.

He moves his arm, revealing the box he gave me a while back, still locked.

My face distorts into a highly confused expression, "you went and got it? I thought we were going together"

He sighs slightly, " i felt it was safer for me to go get it alone. Just incase you might get caught" He hands the box to me and i set it on the table infront of us.

I stand and give him a hug, my hands reaching his shoulders and resting there, "thank you, Tim."

He lets out a soft chuckle and hugs me back for a moment, then shuffles over to the other recliner. He pushes it back and closes his eyes.

Its silent for a moment. Only sound being crickets and the t.v.

"We should find somewhere better ti reside, we will get sick staying outside, its winter already"

I nod, "yeah, but I cant be seen in this town so I cant buy a house"

He shakes his head, "lets go to another town, "maybe one closer to the country. It might be wierd living withe becuase we arent together but its really the only option we have right now" He opens his beautiful brown eyes and look into mine. Serenity laced in his expression.

I avoid eye contact, the words we arent together sending a pang through my heart, "yeah thatll be a good idea, when?" I look back at him.

"How about we leave tomorrow? Ive got a friend who can give us a ride over."

He said that with no hesitation, almost excitement.

I nod and agree.

This is best for me. I cant stay here and get caught. I cant go to prison. And he will be going with me so ill be okay, as long as he is by my side.

He stands up, walking over to the generator. He unpluggs the lights and carfully walks back over to his recliner, reclining it back and laying down, "His name is Brian, just so you know"

I say okay.

We share goodnights and try to sleep in the cold dark tunnel.

As morning hits, i pry my eyes open to see tim fast asleep. I then jolt completely awake, finally realizing that im leaving my beloved town and the memories that came with it.

I gather myself and try to wake Tim.

"Tim we have to start getting our stuff together if we want to have time to look at homes."
