James comes back with a pack of cards and sits down across from me in the booth, "Have you ever played slapjack?" "Yeah I have." He opens the pack and shuffles the cards, I look over at him and smile "Buuut beware i'll win!" He chuckles while dividing the cards into two neat stacks, "Hmph, we'll see about that." He looks up at me with those gorgeous, bright blue eyes, I couldn't help but feel my heart jump a bit as he smiled softly and handed me my stack of cards, "T-Thanks.." "Alright so you'll go first because the first letter of your name comes before mine." I nod, "1..2..3!" I flip over my first card then James, we continue for a couple of seconds until about my 13th card, which was a jack. Once I placed the card down we both slapped our hands on the card, his hand was soft. I blushed a bit and slowly pulled his hand away, "Y-You win." A loud motorcycle engine roars outside, I glance out the window and notice Mike pull up and park the car. He runs up to the door with Ben in his arms, once I saw his passed out face my heart dropped. Mike banged on the door, causing Jacob to quickly run over and swing it open, Mike rushes inside and orders Shannon to grab the first aid kit and towels. Smitty and Charlie push two tables together, as Mike lays Ben down onto them I rush over to Mike. "Oh my god! What happened?! Is he okay?!" I couldn't help but scream, his face was pale and his body was limp. I notice his leg that was shot was in terrible condition. "We were surrounded by those things and we hand to climb a fence, Ben was shaken off of it by the creepers." Shannon came back with towels and a first aid kit, "Ellie I understand that your worried but everyone needs to sit down and give me space." "No i-i'm not leaving Ben!" "Ellie.." James placed his hand on my shoulder. "c'mon." Before I could do anything he pulled me away from Ben. "Let me go!" James pulled me outside, I couldn't help but feel my heart ache. The thought of Ben's pale face made me tear up. "I..I have to go..I can't leave Ben.." James looked at me with concern and pulled me into a hug. As he wrapped his arms around me I couldn't control my tears anymore and began crying and trembling in his arms. The thought of Ben dying..I just..no..
B-Ben..
