Chapter 6

As expected Noah had told the others I helped the Lucas and will look for them. Emily was shocked and stayed away from me.

Jack he listened and followed Emily so he stayed away from me too. Jack cried a little and fell asleep next to Emily who was watching me like a hawk. Sophie she didn't know what to believe but im thankful she stayed by my side even when Noah yelled at her to stay away from me. when Sophie fell asleep I stayed up to watch over them even though they don't trust me.

Noah was glaring at me through the hole in the wall.

"What Noah ?" I say to tired to glare back.

" Why did you help them?" He said with a little hurt in his voice.

" Cause I had to Noah I'm sorry" I say giving him a small smile.

"I don't believe you! your hiding something!" Noah says with tears about to fall.

I look away cause if I see him cry I'm going to tell I did it find them and to look for a escape root. I know Noah is smart and he could tell I was lying to him. now I can't tell him cause those guys might just be listening to us talking and I can't blow my cover.

" Look Noah just sleep" I say looking at him. my eyes grow big to see his face red wet with tears and he trying to wipe them away. I couldn't help but get up and walk over to him and try hug him but of course he backed away.

" Don't touch me!" he said falling backwards.

"I-uh.........sorry" I say I didn't mean but he looked so sad and I could just sit there and watch me little brother cat I had to hug him.

I went back to where I was sleeping, picked up Sophie and put her with the other two sleeping. when I was done that I returned to my spot and stayed watch.I don't remember falling asleep but I had a dream. where me and my family were on this summer road trip we took a few years back. we were all in the van driving when something bad happened to us. we were in a car crash, a semi was going way too fast, lost control and crashed into us. I had a older brother named John but he died in that car crash. he was a few years older then me and Noah was close to him. I don't remember much cause I had lost my memory from it but some memory from the crash came back to me I wish the didn't but they did. Emily remembers our brother she always would ask him to play princesses. now Sophie and jack don't remember him but they do know who he is cause my parents make sure we don't forget him. he was your normal sports guy, good looking to the girls and was popular but that didn't matter to him cause he cared more for his siblings. we use to go to the ice cream ship every Saturday together but now I hardly go to much memories of him that makes me wanna cry. He even helped me when I was getting bullied at school cause I was a nerd and liked reading. He always did that cause I was his little sister and he was my big brother. he was my mom and dads protective older brother they always wanted him to be. he saved me when I just about died in a house fire, the firemen told him it was dangerous but he came back for me. I was stuck in the bathroom cause the door was on fire and the door knob was to hot. I burned my hand trying to open the door so I sat crying holding me hand.

" MOM!DAD! Help me" I said while holding my hand with tears streaming down my face.

"RACHEL!" I heard a voice calling my name but I was slowly losing conscious.

"I'm in here!" I yell before blacking out.

I remember hearing the door being kicked in and me getting picked up. I could hear sirens and people talking. I seen my mom and dad running over to me but I blacked out once again.

"Rachel are you awake" I hear a voice I know so well.

I open my eyes but the bright light in the room is too bright I close them again. I keep opening and closing my eyes to adjust them to the lighting. when I turn my head I see John sitting there looking at me.

"John where am i?" I say looking around and notice I'm in a hospital room.

"Your in the hospital Rachel" he says rubbing his face like he didn't sleep.

"Oh....... Where's mom and dad?" I say looking at the door.

"Their at home with the other" John says "you were in here for about 2 days Rachel you inhaled to much smoke and got a 2 degree burn on your hand and you been out since you blacked out.".

I stare at him with disbelieve and blink once.

" I'm......uh who saved me John ?" I ask while staring out the window.

"Um..I did Rachel I went back for you" he says looking at me like he was going to cry.

I say nothing

"I couldn't leave you there to burn to death. no matter what they told me I had to get you out even if I didn't make it back cause your my little sister Rachel" he says

Tears stream down my face and I start sobbing. I cover my face and cry hard. John pulls me into a hug and tells me it's alright that I don't have to cry. I couldn't help but feel like a hopeless girl.

"John I'm sorry " I say

That's when I woke form my dream. I looked to see Sophie looking at me with sad eyes. I notice that my face is wet and that's when I realized I was crying in my sleep. Emily and jack were looking at me with sad looks. Noah he looks like he didn't sleep but still looking at me with a sad look but soon masks it with a glare.

"Rachel why were you crying in your sleep?" Sophie asks.

"Um I had a dream full of memories and about someone I once knew" once I say that Noah looked at me with wide eyes that knows who I'm talking about.

"Who!" Noah asks

"Just someone Noah it's okay" I say calmly.

" I asked who!" Noah says with anger in his voice.

I look at the floor and say "John" which makes Noah looks sad and shocked. he disappears from the hole with tears about to fall. I know how much he misses John but he's not the only one Emily too is shocked and about to cry. she says that if she had a first love it would be John cause he did what ever she asked him to do.

After a hour if Silents the door opens and Lucas comes in with breakfast. he hands out bacon, eggs and toast to each of us on a plate. Noah sniffs it and tastes it to see if it's poisoned.

"Stop making that face it's not poisoned boy" Lucas says.

Noah just blinked and still took the food from Lucas. after Lucas had left the room he tasted it and when he decided it was good he let us know, well everyone but me. He was still giving me the old shoulder and ignoring me like a little kid. Emily and jack finished there food but was still hungry cause they haven't eating since we ran away from Lucas and will. I got up and walked over to them and gave them my plate of food which I only ate a little of. Sophie she hardly eats so I had what ever she couldn't finish. Noah finished his food wiped his mouth with his shirt and looked like he was about to day something but closed his mouth. he was going to say something but the door opened and Lucas came in. he had five ropes with loops at the ends of them. oh god he was going to hang us is what I thought.

" Ok kids I'm going to let you come up stairs now and stretch your legs.ok?" he says

No says anything cause we are scare of what he and his friend are going to do with those ropes so I speak up.

"Ok" I say with a clam voice.

I start walking toward the door with Sophie right behind me holding on to my shirt. Emily and jack follow behind. they let Noah out too from the other room lets us up stairs and sticks close to Emily and jack.

We roam the house together of course cause we didn't want to get separated again and keep a eye on Lucas and will the hoodie guys who have every intention to kill us. we are standing outside where I see tree big trees with stools underneath them. all my fears were coming true I was going to be hanged with my siblings along side me i kept thinking as I walked.

It was early afternoon when I heard a car coming down the dirt road. oh the excitement I felt and relieve that was going through me. when I noticed it was my parents car. Thought why is there no one else with them. I was the only one out side while the others were inside with Noah looking out the bedroom window staring in disbelief.

"MOM! DAD!" I yelled as their car pulled up.

What to come next was the most shocking part of my life I ever been thorough.
