Ash's POV

When the lockdown is announced I follow the rest of the class to the back corner of the room where we all sit down. Ethan is tapping his fingers against his leg only two people over from me so I silently move over to him. "What if Morgan's hurt? What if the guy in all those pictures is here?" He quietly rambles on with his anxious questions.

"Hey, relax. She has the same homeroom as Hayden, they're probly doing the same thing we are. Sitting in that room, perfectly fine."

"Right," he stares at his tapping fingers. "B-but what if they're not? We're basically in the middle of a horror movie. This is the perfect setup for something to happen in the main five's group."

"Ethan," I take his hand so he stops talking, causing him to look me in the eyes. "Morgan and Hayden are both fine. They're strong and unstoppable on their own, more so together. We'll see them once this is over."

"Right. You're right. They're fine." He's still worried. It's obvious but he seems calm enough now, sitting with his hand in mine.
