   My eyes opened up slowly as I raised my head up. My eyes wondered about my friends. Its been 6 fucking years since I've seen the sun.. Or even left this place. One of my friends was sitting next to me, their head on my shoulder. Their name was Noah. He's a friend to me.. Or been. I've developed feelings for him, and he knew. He just doesn't know how to exactly respond to my love. Which is relatable since hes never been with anyone. 

My other friends, Ava and Cody were sleeping next to each other. I glanced up at the lights flickering. I looked back at the yellowish walls and the soggy carpet. Noah poked my shoulder as I turned to look at him. "Yes?" I asked him, with a slight frown on my face. "Morning.." Noah hummed, hugging me tightly. I smiled at him a bit. 

"Morning, Noah.." Noah was bright red on his cheeks like mine. I kissed his cheek as I got up to check my backpack. I pulled out a cinnamon bun and tossed it to Noah. Noah caught it and ate it. I pulled out some brownies and tossed them in Ava and Cody's faces. Both Ava and Cody woke up after that.

A few minutes later, everyone was talking and playing UNO. "UNO!!" Cody shouted. Ava also called UNO as the round finished with Cody winning. I noticed an arrow appearing on the wall, pointing at it. "Was that there before..?" I asked them, to reply with no. I got up and went to the arrow. "That must lead to the exit.." I suggested.

The others agree with the statement. As I walked around to find the exit, the others followed behind me, watching our surroundings. I saw more arrows and arrows and looked up at a vent. "We need something to get up there.." I looked around. Ava was holding a ladder, and threw it at Cody. I stared at them, concerned about Cody and took the ladder, placing it down to get up in the vent. I looked at the others and pointed at it. "We need to go now."
