Threats

Chapter 17

Mitch's POV

Scott was hurt. He lost too much blood, and could barley walk or talk.
Every time he stood up, he fell again. I didn't know what to do.
We had no phones. No where to go. No one to help us.
We were lost, and that made me scared.
I panicked, sobbed, and screamed for help. But no one came.
Scott was not bleeding anymore, but had pain still. He had lost a lot of blood, and could not function right at all, which scared me even more.

Scott didn't move. He just cried.
Seeing him cry, made me cry even harder.

We got to the point where we were both on the ground.
Scott was sleeping, and I was sobbing.

I haven't been lost before.
I haven't been this scared before.
I don't know what to do, and I don't know how to help Scott.

I feel my eyes get heavy, and drop down.
I let myself fall asleep, hoping that when I wake up, everything will be better. And all of this would have been a dream.

~next morning~

Scott was gone.
He wasn't next to me.
He wasn't behind me.
He. Was. Gone.

I got up, and ran around screaming his name at the top of my lungs until finally I saw footprints in the dirt.
I followed them.
I don't know how he gained his strength back, to walk. But he did.

I followed them and they lead all the way to a street that was very familiar.
It was Kirstie's house.
As I walked down the path, Kirstie ran up to me and hugged me.
"W-wh... where's Scott?" I ask.
"Inside... were taking him to the doctors soon. He wanted to wait for you."
"H-he left me..."
"No, he didn't know where you were. He woke up and you weren't there."
I shook my head.
"I'm almost positive that I fell asleep with him..."
She shrugged.
"Can I see him?" I ask.
She nods. "He's on the couch."
I walk into her apartment and run to Scott. I hug him and cry into his chest.
"B-b...baby..." Scott says.
My cheeks light up and my heart flutters. That name makes me happy.
"Y-you need help, s-Scotty..."
"I-I'll b-be okay..." he mumbles.
I kiss his cheek, and keep my hands interlocked with his.
"K-keep your eyes open. P-please. Look into my eyes." I say.
He does. He makes heart eyes.
"I-I l-love you..." he says.
"I love you more."
