Please Warn Them

Chapter 7

Maxim looks around the mini refrigerator looking for what he had given her. "Not good." he mumbles to himself staring at a small bottle of vodka. "идиот!!" Maxim looks like a scolded little kid trying make himself look small so he does not get in any more trouble. "извините..." Ava blinks trying to understand what Maxim just said "He said sorry." Viktor translated seeing that Ava was completely clueless.

"How did you end up driving Viktor?" Viktor started to relax slowly seeing Ava was able to speak normally and did not need to hold her throat because of the alcohol burning it. "Well me and Maxim should not be driving period. Since you were unconscious we could not ask you since between the both of us I would not get us killed early."

Ava went pale hearing those words that were not comforting at all but when will they ever be. "At least I'm not driving according to Viktor the plants I've use for ceremonies have some side effect that affect my brain or something." 'Hm I prefer Viktor then.' she thought watching Maxim spread out on one of the beds with a pipe in between his lips.

A soft sight flew from her lips feeling her body relax on the bed that now replaced the seats. Small mumbles came out Viktor lips while his eyes focused on the road that he was carefully searching around for a rest stop which lay in all highways. Viktor managed to somehow park the bus with them still alive and not in a ditch.

He unbuckles his seat belt after he has made sure that everything was turned off and in the park setting so it does not go moving on its own. "So would any of you be kind enough to tell me where the hell are we going!" Maxim removes the pipe from his lips to say, "Good question. Now where did I put that map." Viktor lifts an eyebrow watching Maxim move around like a dog trying to find its toy or maybe a raccoon who knows.

Viktor glances at Ava who have been silent for a while now which made him worried. He moves toward her sitting on the bed that she rested on. He brushes a strand of light brown hair away from her face "She spoke to me again and told me that I will be drawn to them, they to me." Viktor ran his fingers through her hair as she spoke "Are you regretting having to be the one helping her?" she sat up fast showing anger toward his words.

"I do want to help her! Just..." Viktor smiles softly at her given her hand a soft squeeze. "I understand you do not have to explain." her eyes shined with happiness that she threw herself at him. Viktor wraps his arms around her giving her courage. "Found it!" Maxim happily announces before he looking at the small emotional scene right in front of him. "Did I miss something or what?" they nod Maxim wipes an imaginary tear away "Next time include me so I do not feel lonely."
