Michael's P.O.V.

She giggled and blushed, burying her face into my shoulder.

I grabbed her hand and without warning her, got up from the bench and began to run again, I always thought that if I wasn't a recording artist, I'd be a track runner, I loved to run.

We sprinted down the path, some of the trees illuminated with multicoloured lights, there was a fountain which I wanted to take her too.

We ran and ran, we didn't speak as we were busy laughing, but suddenly I heard voices...

I stopped abruptly, she ran into me, almost knocking us both over, she grunted as she hit me with force, "Ouch..." she whispered.

"Ssshhh." I shushed her, I desperately wanted to see if she was okay, but I didn't want us both getting caught, I scanned the surroundings for any means of life, I listened intently at every sound...

Voices again.

My eyes darted towards the sound and there...in the distance, I saw two people.

Automatically I began to run in the opposite direction, dragging Grace with me, I ran us into the trees, dashing behind one and making her crouch low, as did I, behind the thick trunk of the ancient tree.

"What?!" Hissed Grace, I could hear pain in her voice.

"There's people over there! Are you okay?" I asked, trying hard to make out her face in the pitch black, heavily forested woodland.

"I ran into your elbow...I think my lip is busted, I taste blood."
