As I quickly made my exit from the diner I made a right and headed back into the woods.

I needed a plan. I couldn't just waltz right in. Not yet at least. I needed a way back into the building. Sounds crazy, but it's the only thing I had left. I couldn't leave Taylor like my brother did.

His name was Noah. One day he was there. The next he wasn't. No explanation, just a stupid note saying he loved us and to be safe.

I scoffed rolling my eyes. If that's love I don't want it. Forcing myself to focus on the task at hand. I surveyed my surroundings but everything was normal.

After about a hour I came up to the edge of the forest. The building was so close but so far. I looked at the door I came out of just a few hours ago.

Think Ashlynn think. I bit my lip contemplating. There was literally no option other than to sneak in. Fine, good thing Taylor taught my how to pick locks.

He also told me to always keep a Bobby pin with me. I reached into my hair pulling out ones. I ran over to the door.

I quickly slide a pin in jiggling it gently. After a few minutes of sweet talking the lock, it clicked. I thanked every god in the sky

I peeked in the doorway. Good no one was there. I stood in the hallway getting myself together.

As I rounded a corner I bumped right into a certain pair of green eyes, sending me flying on my butt.

He grinned and reached down helping me up. I scowled at him but took his hand. No sparks. Good. His brother must have some kind of electric shock thingy.

" We have to stop meeting like this Miss. " He winked at me.

" We have to stop meeting period. " He held his hands over his heart. Pffft right.

" Too bad I have to take you to my brother now."

My mouth dropped. That traitor!
