Alex's POV
I groan and roll over, my hand reaching out to feel Tobin's warmth, but only finding the cold side of the bed. My eyes open, and I look around. Artificial light came through the curtains, and the heater is running. Winter is now onto us, and its starting to get pretty cold.
I don't see Tobin in here, but maybe she's in the bathroom. I get up, rubbing my eyes from sleep, and made my way to the bathroom. I open it up. Nothing. I frown. Where could she be? Maybe she's having breakfast.
I change, and pull over her UNC sweatshirt, only because it smells like her, and I'm a little worried about her right now.
I go downstairs after undoing my braid, revealing curly hair.
In the mess hall, I search the faces for Tobin's. I don't see her. I bite my lip. Where could she have gone off to? She isn't crazy enough to leave....right?
I feel an arm loop around mine. Hoping its Tobin, I face her and see its Kelley.
"Hey Lex" Kelley grins.
I nod to her.
"Hi Kelley" I smile.
"Where's Tobin?" Kelley asks, and she sits us down.
"Actually, I don't know" I say, and she thinks to herself, and I stare at the table, trying to think as well. I mean, where would she go?
"You don't know" Kelley repeats, and I nod.
Moe sits down next to us, Meghan at her side, as always.
"Maybe she's going for a walk?" Kelley asks.
"She's not allowed. Remember her incident?" I say, and Kelley grits her teeth.
"Where could she go? She isn't allowed to leave" Amy said.
I turn, and come face to face with Amy and Lauren.
"When did you guys get here?" I ask.
Amy grins.
"We've been here the whole time" Lauren says, and I nod.
"Did she say anything to you guys? Anything suspicious or anything about leaving?" Meghan asks.
I shake my head no.
Kelley starts to shake her head, but then stops in the middle of it.
"Oh no" She mumbles. My stomach drops. I grab her shoulders.
"What is it?" I ask, and she stares at me.
"She promised me something" Kelley said, and her eyes look wet.
"What did she say?" I ask.
"She promised she would get Hope back" Kelley whispers, and my grip on her shoulder's falters.
"Oh my God. She's crazy. She can't go into the city by herself!" I shoot to my feet.
JJ and Christen walks in, hand in hand. When they see my worry, JJ frowns, and Christen walks up to me, and asks me something, but I don't hear it. I'm already running to security.
Tobin's POV
"Thanks man" I shake his hand, and take the map from him.
Something moves in the back seat.
I whip my head around, and laugh when I see Eli crawl out.
"Can't let you get yourself killed alone" He grins.
"I'm planning on not dying today" I grin back, and help him out of the car. He has a wrap around his ear, and a sling on his arm. Not sure what from though.
"Okay listen lady" The driver says. "Theres rumors that she'll be at the wreckage of the empire state building. That place is deserted now from the massacre a couple days ago, and some say she's getting rid of the bodies" He shivers. "So I'd be careful. She may have gone a little crazy, so she might not recognize you"
"Thanks man, but I'll be fine" I say, and he shrugs.
"Lady, all I'm saying is be careful. She's despicable" The driver says, and I wave goodbye.
"So we head to the empire state building?" Eli asks as the driver drives away.
"Yep" I say, and we begin the trek.
