5 Weeks Of Little Mix (5SOS/Little Mix Fanfic)

Chapter 20 - Awaken

Jesy's POV:

The next morning I wake up beside Leigh and Calum. By the looks of it, we may have rotated around the sleeping situation.

The RV is deadly quiet, and looking at the time on my phone it's only 7am.

This is the second day we've been stuck down here, and I don't think anyone has actually left the RV yet.

I might as well do that later. I mean lets face it, there's no point staying in here. We should probably be looking for a way to get out of here.

" Jesy" A voice whispers at me.

I turn my head to see Leigh staring right at me.

" Thank god you're up. I can't sleep in this thing. It's so warm" Whispers Leigh.

I nod my head. She's right. The air conditioning has been a bit messed up since we plummeted down here.

" Wanna sit in there for a bit?" I ask quietly, pointing at the door leading towards the living area.

Leigh nods, and as silently as we can, we creep out of the bed, and slowly pull the door open, leaving the room.

" Well that's a relief. I can't cope not being able to sleep and having to be silent" I murmur quietly sitting around the table.

Leigh sits facing me and nods,
" Same. I can't sleep knowing we're stuck here"

" I just want to go home Leigh. God knows how long we're going to be stranded here" I grumble, putting my head into my hands.

Leigh leans over the table and rubs my shoulder in a caring way, realising how suckish I feel.

" Aw, Jesy. It won't be long. We'll get found sooner or later and we can escape this prison on wheels".

I hope she's right. We don't have enough food to last too long, and quite frankly, I don't want to do a hunger games and start hunting.

" Bloody hell....you are so loud" Says Jade appearing from the other bedroom, Perrie stumbling about behind her.

" Sorry. We couldn't sleep" Says Leigh apologetically, tapping the seats for them to join us.

Perrie shuts the bedroom door, and then they both sit beside us, looking as dreary as we do.

" So....anyone got any bright ideas to get us 'outta here?" Asks Perrie, sitting up a bit more.

" If we did do you recon we'd still be sat here?" Says Leigh with a bit of a grin.

Perrie shakes her head and smiles,
" Okay Mrs Sarcastic, I get your point. Let's start thinking then"

We all go quiet for a moment and try to brainstorm, but it clearly isn't working, as five seconds later we all exchange hopeless looks.

" Yeah. This is our life now kids" Says Jade glumly.

" Don't be stupid Jade. We're gonna get out of here. Somehow" I say hopefully, wishing that something miraculous would happen any minute.

However, what if she's right? What if we die in his over heated wreck of what once was an RV? I hope not.

Ashton's POV:

I'm sleeping. I just don't know where I am. I can hear voices, but very muffled. My head aches as I come round to what seems to be reality.

I have to open my eyes to get out of this darkness, so with all my strength I try.

Slowly before me, I begin to see light, bright light piercing my eyes. It hurts a bit, but I know I need to keep going.

Finally, I open my eyes, and with precaution, I glance around the room to see Michael sat asleep in a chair beside me.

"Mikey" I whisper, not because I don't want to talk loudly, just because I'm incredibly weak.

Michael doesn't hear me, so carefully I stick my foot out of the bed and try to kick him softly.

" Shit!" Says Michael sitting up wide awake.

Perhaps I underestimated my strength and kicked him a little harder than I expected.

" You're awake Ash!" Beams Michael enthusiastically, shuffling closer to the bed.

I nod my head. By the looks of it I am awake.

" Man what happened?" I ask, struggling to remember anything.

Michael looks at me wide eyed and takes a long, hard sigh.
" It's no big deal Ash, just try to focus on getting better"

" We'll it's clearly a big deal considering your reaction. How long have I been out for?" I ask sternly, now concerned.

Michael shrugs,
" I don't know....about 2 days?"

Two days?!? What the heck happened? I must have hit my head hard enough to knock me out for that long.

I take a moment to compose myself,
" Michael. Tell me what happened"

Michael stands out of his chair and paces up and down the room. He takes a long breath and looks at me sympathetically.

" We were driving, and we got lost. So you tried to find a way out...and...and.. that's when we crashed" Stammers Michael quietly.

What...
" So you're telling me, we crashed, because.....of me?"

Michael shakes his head and sits on the bed beside me.
" No...of course not. It wasn't your fault. How were you to know that there was a hill there-"

I hear the door go and Jade walks in.
" So....the invalid is awake I see".

Instantly I notice the blood red cut, which has been slashed across Jade's face.

" I did that to you....." I say, a lump forming in my throat, pointing at the wound.

" You didn't. The crash did" Says Jade, trying her hardest to reassure me.

It doesn't matter what Jade says. I did that to her. I'm the reason why she's been hurt. Me.

" We fell down a steep hill Ash. Now we're sorta stuck in a forest. It's pretty serious, however we're all fine. Luckily you were the only one who got severely hurt" Michael states, clearly seeing the panic on my face.

" I should have stayed put. I could have had you all killed" I say sadly, trying not to get choked up from the shock.

" Well we didn't. We're all alive, we're all well" Says Jade, standing in the corner of the room.

Hardly well. They look war torn and battered. How could I do this to them?

How could I have been so idiotic?

How?
