Warren held her close and smiled. He looked down at her. "Y-You do..?" He sounded surprised, but happy. He didn't think she liked him the same way as he did.
David nodded. "It was hard seeing our friends neighbors pass away. But we're happy to see you safe."
"Of course I do. Why would I say so if I didn't mean it?" She laid her head on his should as she began to cry tears of joy.
Chloe didn't say anything she just hugged the two them never wanting to let go. As her mom played with her hair and David talked she cried her own tears. Joy and sadness.
Warren shook his head and kept smiling. He gently wiped away her tears with his thumbs.
David enjoyed this peaceful moment in which he sat still with his family. He was happy despite all of the recent chaos going around the family and town.
Max let him wipe her tears away. "What are we going to do now?" She looked into his eyes for what felt like forever until something outside caught her attention.
Something crashed outside. "What the fuck was that?" Chloe quickly let go of David and Joyce and went outside.
Joyce followed Chloe. Outside where the found Frank. Stealing their car. "FRANK! NO!" Chloe chased after the car for as long as she could. "Max! Do it."
Max chased after chloe. It was hard because of her leg but she got as far as she could. When she heard Chloe she knew exactly what she meant. She put her hand up and reversed time.
Warren looked over to Chloe, who was almost never without Max. He couldn't help but feel anxious and worried. He slowly approached Chloe. "Please tell me Max is safe.." He asked Chloe. Warren couldn't bare the fact of Max not making it through the storm.
"She's safe Warren. She should be coming in, any moment now.." Chloe walked out the door where she saw Max waiting by the car. "Max! Watch out!" Frank was sneaking up to max with a gun.
Max quickly took action and hit his face with her elbow. "What are you doing here Frank?!" Max was surprised that he had a gun. She didn't see him with it in the car. She had changed the way it happened by waiting by the car. She immediately thought of the butterfly effect.
Warren ran outside to Max as soon as he saw the gun. "Damn Max, you handled him good." He joked lightly. He was glad to see her alive and well enough. Warren kept his eyes on Frank in case he made any rash moves.
David left Joyce's side to investigate all the commotion going on outside. He kept his hand on the holster where his should've been. A nervous look took over his face when he realized his gun was missing. "Hey! He has my damn gun!"
Nathan stood to the side, motionless and unsure of what to do. He figured he should try to help, since it was the least he could do. Especially since Frank is-or was his friend, it might be easier to talk to him. Nathan approached the new forming crowd outside around Frank.
Max realized that she went to before she kissed Warren and told him she loved him. She thought that since Nathan was approaching Frank she could leave. She then walked to Warren in kissed him on the lips right away.
As Nathan approached Frank Chloe hugged Joyce, but skipped David he was to busy taking his gun back. "What happened last night?"
"Well, after the storm began to stop at 4am Frank was on his watch while we slept. When i woke up he was gone. He must of taken Davi-- DAVID WATCH OUT!"
Frank was taking a tranquilizer out of his pocket. But as soon as Joyce called out he stabbed David's neck and than punched Nathan. He took the gun and shot Max in shoulder.
Max screamed and fell into Warren's arms. She grabbed his shirt and passed out.
