Roses Flaws ↠ Michael Clifford (AU)

Chapter | 55 |

It was bright and early, the sun was shining. I had almost forgot that we escaped.

"Good morning everyone!" Michael came in, beating two sticks together. "Get up, we still got a lot of walking to do."

Everyone groaned, moving very slowly to awake.

"I hope we find something to eat soon. I'm starving." Luke mumbled.

"I am too." I stood up, dusting myself off. I turned to Michael and pulled his ear to me.

"Not to worry anyone but do you know where we are going?"

He shrugged. "Nope but once we hit town, leave everything to me. Alright?"

"Fine."

We started our journey very soon seeing we had no reason not too.

It was Still too early, birds were chirping and all six us dragging ourselves threw the woods very hungry and thirsty.

"Stop." Calum motioned. "Do you hear that?"

I listened in closely. "I hear it too!"

Chris started to run off. "Its running water!"

We all chased after him. It was indeed running water but a creek. One by one we all got in, either drinking the water or simply cleaning ourselves.

"I'm going to go look for bottles so that we can save it." Maggie called out, leaving us. Luke decided to join in and help her.

"How far do you thing we have?" Calum asked.

"Probably a lot of miles." Michael answered. "If I had a mental facility I wouldn't want it around civilization... Even if we are out, we are going to have a lots trouble walking around in public. I say we get fake identities and go to the US. We're going to be wanted for the rest of our lives."

"Oh whoa whoa, hold on mate the United States? You can't be serious." Chris said.

"Do you want to watch your back the rest of your live? If so, go ahead because the ones who want to go are going."

Maggie came walking up to the Creek. "Go where?"

"Maggie." Chris jumped up. "Tell this loon that it'll be crazy to go the United States."

"No." She shook her head. "It'll be fun and why not take a risk? We are already wanted."

"Well I'm staying here in Aussie when we hit a city." Chris decided.

"I am too." Calum agreed. "My family is here, I haven't seen them in years. I need too."

"I miss my family too. I'll go to the US but after I see them." I stated.

It grew silent when I said that. "What?" I asked.

Silence again.

"You don't believe I have family do you?" I stood abruptly. "If you don't believe me than so be it. I'm going to find a motel."

I walked away from them. Within 30 minutes they caught up to me.

It was leaning towards the afternoon when we saw the outline of buildings. All of us ran rather quickly into town.

"We can stay there!" I pointed towards the lit up motel sign.

"How?" Maggie asked me. "We have no money."

Michael smirked. "Leave it to me." then he disappeared.

"I'm going to go look at the nearby shops for food." Luke said.
