       𝐒𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐇, 𝐉𝐎𝐇𝐍 𝐁 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐄𝐋𝐈 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐇𝐈𝐃 behind something, perfect view the road where cleo and terrance stood, acting as if they were road workers. Eli was holding her breath, just realizing she has been holding her breath for a while now.

Koda and emory decided not to come and went to the docks for some shit they needed to get done. they got jobs that were more important than being here.

      Eli could be seeing rafe for the first time in, how long has it been? months? weeks? days? everyday was blurring together and she had no clue what day of the week it was or what month.

      "get ready to run" John b whispered as the truck rumbled to a stop. "what's going on?" wards voice rung through elliott's ears. That's one voice that gave her chills, in a bad way. "Sorry" terrance said.

      "roads closed, nobody coming through!" cleo and terrance started walking towards the truck. Eli hasn't heard another voice, she could only make out 3 voices, cleo, terrance and ward. She was stuck behind John B and Sarah, she couldn't see the truck.

    "Well, can you let just on truck through?" Ward asked, annoyance in his voice. The gold wasn't many feet away, they were so close to getting what they deserved and worked for.

      "we just....we kinda gotta get through today. We got a delivery that-" cleo quickly shut him up. "i don't think so. sinkhole. massive."

     "i'm begging you guys, if-" Ward started talking before terrance pulled a gun on him, "let me see your hands" Ward sighs, cleo got in the other side of the car, "don't do anything stupid" sarah looked behind her towards elliott.

      "elliott, rafes with him" she said. elliott stopped. Stopped breathing, moving, thinking, everything. rafe was in that truck, how many feet away from her. she could see the boy who she could not stop thinking about for the first time in months, weeks, who knows.

      She didn't speak. she just tuned out everything. "listen to your papa" she heard cleo speak, they were getting out of the truck. Rafe and Ward were getting out of the car. it was time to steal the gold back, what is she doing thinking of rafe?

    "everything nice and easy" terrance told the 2. "this is what we'll do. you're gonna walk to the sign. you'll put those signs on the side for me. you go to that sign. you go to that sign" Cleo and terrance were directing them, not letting them go.

      "move that damn sign" terrance demanded ward, "you too buddy. put it on the side of the road" he spoke to rafe.

    "right over there" cleo pointed. "go to the barrel, put the barrel to the side of the road. put the barrels on the side" Terrence directed them.

      "Throw another barrel, and i'll blow your damn head off. take 2 steps back. Easy! get on your knees!" terrence yelled at the two, "on the ground, come on!" cleo yelled.

     "who are you? who are you?" elliott shivered at his voice. his voice gave him the chills she liked, not the ones that gave her a bad feeling.

     "i'm the royal commission for the redistribution of wealth. kiss the ground" terrance kept the gun pointed at wards head.

     "you guys are idiots. our escorts are right behind us." rafe spoke, some of the first words he has spoke this whole time.

      "are we going to, you know, move? take the truck and the gold that we, we'll you guys, have earned?" eli whispered. the mask covering her face muffling her voice a bit.

      "yep, it's go time" john b nodded, as the 3 started towards the truck. it took everything in her not to go run up to him. ward looked under his arm, noticing the 3 running towards the truck.

"sarah?" he said, getting up slightly. "get down!" terrance yelled. "sarah! you're alive!" ward yelled happily, "baby, you're alive!" he started crying

"don't talk to her! stay down!" cleo yelled, "stay back" john b instructed, "hey! stay down!" cleo yelled again.

"sarah! you're alive!" ward kept repeating, "leave her the fuck alone ward!" elliott yelled, pulling her mask down.

Rafe froze. his girl, his princess, was alive. she's right behind him, the one person who he loved so much was alive. "eli?" rafe yelled as he stood up, turning around.

"rafe" eli whispered, drivers door wide open, ready to jump in. she was driving.

"princess!" rafe yelled, but he pointed his gun at the three, the one thing elliott wasn't expecting. "Rafe put the fucking gun down please" elliott yelled, but he shot it anyways. right at the three, he shot it more than once.

The three jumped into the car, "princess don't leave me again!" rafe shouted, "please!" he pleaded, the hurt in his voice was so noticeable and his voice was breaking.

it hurt elliott's heart but she has to do what's best for her friends. Elliott started the truck and started driving away, she sighed.

"guys the golds weighing the truck down" eli spoke as she drove, "is there anyway to make this thing go faster?" sarah stared at eli.

"making this thing go as fast as it can sarah, i'm trying" the truck started tipping as they turned a corner, "shit sorry" eli whispered under her breath. She turned down a dirt path, trying to get rid of the other truck following them. Everyone sighs as they finally decide to breath and settle down. Eli drove into a row of corn. John b turned around and started smiling, realization hitting him.

"sarah" he breathed out, "guys we got the gold. sarah, we did it. we did it eli. oh my god." john be started smiling while eli noticed sarah staring down at her stomach, "sarah?" she asked

"i'm shot" sarah spoke up. "holy shit" was all elliott could say.

ʀᴀғᴇs ᴘᴏᴠ

she's alive, my girls alive, my princess. she is actually alive. all those times i've cried myself to sleep because she was gone, she wasn't even gone. she was in the bahamas, here with sarah and john b.

a smile hasn't left my face. i probably look like a fucking physco path but i don't care. my fucking girls alive. "fuck yea!" i yelled. i didn't care about the gold, i didn't care john b and sarah took it. i cared about one person in that car.

"now is not the time rafe, the little crush you have isn't going to last, we need to get that gold back and your little crush is going to make this 10x harder." ward said to me, he was stressed i get it. but this was so much bigger than the gold, he may not agree.

he doesn't care about my feelings or what makes me happy. as long as he get what's he wants, classic ward cameron, the man everyone loves and adores. someday he will get what he deserves and i'm going to make sure of it.
