Car after car passes by, not caring that there’s 4 people on the side of the road, soaked from head to toe and miserable.

Kayla sighed, “I’m scared, I don’t want to be the next to die”

Brandt wrapped his arm around her, “don’t say things like that. We’re all scared. We just have to be tough and think about now and what were going to do okay?”

She nodded her head slowly.

Chris wrapped his arm my waist, “Yea what are we going to do? They are not going to pick us up”

“I don’t know, don’t ask me. I got you guys out because that’s my specialty but things like afterwards I have no clue. Usually there’s someone to pick me up because I called them but we don’t have phones so really I haven’t got a clue on what to do.”

They all sighed.

“Well we have to think of something,” Brandt said.

“Let’s just keep walking until someone picks us up or we reach a town with a pay phone,” I sighed.

I ran into the room.

“She alive and out!” I yelled to them.

Jeremy jump right out of his seat “What? No way! Really?”

“Yes, there’s four of them and they’re on the side of the road close to Haliburton”

“I thought there was six?” Christophe asked.

“Yea um,” I scratched my head, “well two of the girls kind of died when they were escaping and if that Chris dude didn’t stop Elena she’ll be dead too”

“What? Why?” Jeremy asked.

“Well she wanted to save one of the girls because she thought she can but she didn’t because Chris talked her out of it”

“What are we still doing here? We know where she is let’s go”

“Slow down Jere, Emily, what is her plan? Do you know?” Christophe asked.

“Her plan so far is that they either get picked up by hitchhiking or they walk to the closes town, or what we know is as Haliburton and call on a pay phone to pick them up”

Jeremy was squirming in his seat ready to go at any moment. Christophe was thinking very deeply.

Christophe sighed, “Fine let’s get in the car”

Jeremy practically jumps out of his seat and runs to the car.

“Emily, you coming with us?”

“Uh there’s 4 people, if I come their wont be enough room”

“There’s enough room, Elena is odd and only sits in the trunk because she thinks if they don’t know she’s in a car, they wont find her, or so she says” Christophe rolled his eyes.

“Sure let’s go”

I don’t know how much time we wasted but I’m beginning to worry that were not going to make it. We’re all going to go crazy for food and water, why I didn’t think about this? That because I was stupid not to bring any food or drinks. Why all of this my fault? That is I made a plan for escaping and got two people killed because of it. Why everything I think is brilliant at first become an totally disaster? That’s because their always huge gap in my plan that I never take notices. I’m practically that guy on the skittles commercial but instead of everything I touch become skittles, it’s everything I touch become a big failure, or a black hole that I suck people in with me. Why my life has to be this way? I don’t know, but its really starting to bring me down and I want a better life. A life I dream of, A life that has no part of this supernatural world, A life that I was a human and not a witch, A life…a life with a family. A family that has a mother, a father, and a normal brother. A family that’s always happy being together. That’s the life I want but I know that’s never going to happen. As I was thinking of these thing we were walking down this same road, the road that led us free, the road that’s going to kill us soon, we kept walking, all to tired to talk but not tried enough to stop. Brandt and Kayla were ahead of us, leaning on each other and me and Chris walking at normal pace with our arms around our waist not caring that they are there. You may think this is awe, There going to be a couple but I think not. I looked up at Chris. Wow he grown quite a few since I first met him and he starting to have muscles, big muscle. His face has become sharp. A nice sharp jaw line, sharp nose, he’s actually starting to look like a wolf. I’m not sure if that’s a complement or not but its true. With his emerald green eyes, with his hair soaked, it looks black and now up to his shoulders. He had gotten taller too. I think he is 6’2”, to come and think about it he’s an inch off to being a foot taller then me. He look absolutely gorgeous, a hottie. He caught me looking and scrunched his eyebrows like he was studying me. I looked away, embarrassed that I have been caught and begin to feel the heat coming to my cheeks. He did something so unexpected. He grabbed my chin and pulled my face towards him. I realized we stopped and I tried to move forward but I couldn’t I was dumbstruck. He leaned down and kissed me on the lips. It was a gentle like he was unsure but is was nice. He begins to pull back but I grab his face with my hands and reached on to my toes and kissed him back. It was a tender kiss. We looked at each other then we heard Brandt clear his throat. We pulled back immediately.

“Sorry to disturb you guys but we kind of want to get somewhere dry no offence”

“Sorry,” I was really turning red now maybe I was scarlet now.

“Its ok Elena lets just keep moving,” he seem disturb about something like he was mad, but I forgot about that a kept moving. Maybe I was wrong about that thought, maybe Chris really likes me and I really like him, but at this moment I’m not sure, hopefully I know tomorrow and he will too
