Cosset's P.O.V.

We run through the woods, just as a bullet flys by us. Lane drops to the ground, landing on me. My ankle objects, and my face goes red. He smiles down reassuringly at me, in return I give off a glare. "Sorry," Lane mutters. "Can you stand up?"

Lane tumbles to the ground off of me and extends a hand to help me up. I take it, and pain fires through my ankle. I grimace and let out an involuntary gasp. I clench my hands an worry shoots through his eyes. "I'm fine," I lie through gritted teeth.

"No your not, sit down."

"I'm fine, let's get moving, now."

"Sit down now."

" We are leaving now. Let's go or he's gonna catch us."

"At least let me carry you."

I roll my eyes as he turns around and I hop on his back. I look at my ankle for the first time. The bottom of my skinny jeans are ripped so I can see my ankle, a big red and blue lump replaces where my ankle used to be.

Oh god. I hope it's just sprained.

Lane carries me through the woods. I remember falling asleep on his shoulder. And that's how I woke up here, well wherever I am. Where's Lane? I sit up and my ankle fires up. A heavy hand is draped across my mid-section. I scream, it's hand automatically shoots to my mouth. I struggle, did Alix jump Lane? Did he kill Lane? I think I...liked him...

Another hand touches my hair and strokes it reassuringly. "Shhhhhhhhh, it's me...just me. I'm here don't worry." I hear Lane's calm smooth voice whisper into my ears.

I relax and fall back into his arms. " I thought you were gone."

"Never, not without a fight."

I notice how uncomfortably close we were. His body heat is smouldering and I can feel the puffs of his breath on my cheek. I turn away, feelin self conscious when I realise how I must look...and smell. I haven't brushed my teeth or showered in a couple days.

"Why do you do that." he says sternly.

"Do what?"

"You know, when you turn away. Suddenly; scared or frustrated."

"I'm not." I say sternly

"Why do you do that! You push everyone away! Everyone who loves you and cares about you!"

" You don't love me! I don't love you get that through your damn thick skull!"

" I love you! I love you Cosset! Get that through your skull!" He screams back.

" Why? Why! I've given everything to get you and you just throw me away!"

" I don't love anyone! I will never love anyone!"

Lane stares at me. Sadness in his eyes, he wears the saddest expression I've ever seen on a human.

I sigh, feeling my heart break. "I can't love."

He stands up, "ok,"

I wish he would just scream at me some more. It would be better, better if I couldn't see the acceptance in his eyes. He's given up, given up on me. Why do I do this to every one. I look down at my hands. They shake as rain starts to pour down on us. Why, why do I do this. Lane's jacket drops at my feet, I look up an he's gone. I grab the jacket and I smell it. It smells like vanilla and...and...and...something else. Pine trees. Vanilla and pine trees. Why did I let him go? Why, why did I do that? He's gone and now I have to get out of here by myself. All alone.

"Lane!"

"Lane!"

"Laaane! Where are you! I want you! I... I need you!"

I think I might even...love him. Maybe, just maybe. If I loose him, I might just die. What if Alex finds him? What will happen? To him, to me? Tears stream down my face. " I loved him," I whisper to myself. "Now he's gone and it's my fault, just like why everyone else is gone."

" I loved him!" I try to scream over the rain. But it's pounding so hard that I can hardly hear myself. Tears mix with rain. I think I loved him, I can feel my heart break. Is this real love?
