My feet hit the ground running. "Grayson! Hurry up." I yell over my shoulder to my brother. My breath being the only sound filling my cold ears. It was only the beginning of winter and it was already 60 degrees, I know the air is cold but we've been running for miles, I'm producing enough heat for it to radiate off me. The car we need to get to is finally in sight and I run even faster.
"Ethan! Wait... I can't," Gray shouts and it's barely audible, how far behind could he be? I turn around and I see him being swarmed by the flashing lights and shouts as he stops running.I'm sorry Grayson
I whip my head around to face the other direction and start running again, I'm so close. When I finally reach the car I quickly open the door and shove my bag and self in, locking the doors behind me, "GO!" I shout at the driver as he fumbles with his keys, struggling to turn the ignition on. Suddenly hands are banging against the window, they've caught me. The car roars to life and speeds off, leaving the yelling crowd behind us and I sigh in relief.

"How much longer 'till we reach the airport?" I ask, wanting to get far away, needing to get far away."Right about now actually." He replies, seemingly annoyed. The car comes to a slow halt and I get out quickly. We planned not to bring luggage to make it easier but now all I want is a shirt or a hoodie, something from Gray so that he can be with me, we planned this together. As I walk into the airport I look around for terminal 2, international departures.
After checking in and going through security I'm surprised no one noticed me, we did something bad, the worst thing you could ever do with a world like mine. I walk down the aisle of the plane and I feel eyes burning through me, do they know? They couldn't. I sink down into my seat and immerse myself into the many movies onboard, awaiting the arrival of a different life, not better, but different.
