Mending The Bad Boy

Chapter 5

I scream as Danny falls on top of me.

"Danny!" I yell. I pull him off me and lay him on the ground.

A bullet to his side, pierced through but had luckily already exited.

I tear his shirt open and apply pressure to his wound. Blood quickly covered my finger.

I look around for help.

"Annie.. go." He says whispering my
People screaming and running.

A group of men start walking towards us with guns from across the big room.

Ugh butt snaps...

I try to pull Danny up but he's to heavy for me.

"Annie, just run!" He yells.

I get up and run through the door.

My heart pounding.

My heels slapping the ground.

My hair flowing as I run.

My dress waving in the wind.

A gunshot not being heard is a hint that I'm not wanted dead.

My husband laying in a restaurant bleeding in the carpet maybe gives me a couple pointers as to who is.

I turn to look and see men following me running, but they were pretty far behind.

My goal was to run to the woods.

The key to having a lot of brothers, was to learn to make a hiding spot anywhere and everywhere. The woods was always my favorite spot.

Across a field I fled. My heels getting stuck in the dirt.

I bend down and take them off.

Sprinting into the air, I turn as I jump and see the gaining on me.

Ugh I always failed gym...

I see the woods in another 18 feet.
Ok kidding I actually don't know how far away cause I'm stupid with math and estimating.

Senior year, I asked Danny to quiz me and I got all hyped and really to conquer, and he asked me what two plus two was and I accidentally said eight.

I enter the woods and my feet hit branches.

I've never run in the woods barefoot before. First of all it's just stupid. And second of all, there is this thing called spiders...

Bear, coyotes, mountain lion.. they didn't scare me.. but let me tell you, spiders are like small grenades ready to explode and kill everyone.

I run and run longer than Forest did.

I hate all those who didn't get that.

Why do you even exist!?! Just kidding l don't even know  why  Barbie exists but she does.

I see and creek that empties into a pond.

I run for it and jump in the water. Right about now is when I really hate myself. It's literally November.

Sometimes I wonder about why Danny puts up with me...
