"You want me to run away from my problems, but how can I run away from myself?" . .
I shook my head no and Phil gave a small smile at me proudly. Chris just shrugged and drank some more, I started to get worried, Dan was driving and I knew this wouldn't end up well, yet honestly I was too tired to care about it.
I sighed and closed my eyes unknowingly, I haven't had actual sleep in a long time, well it would always get interrupted. I've started having a lot more nightmares recently, maybe I'm just on edge for everything happening yet it still frightens me. I drifted off to sleep, leaving my thoughts behind as I began to rest.

My eyes opened up and I felt frozen, I couldn't move, it was cold, I was in a dark room. It kinda looked like the asylum but I was unsure. I jumped as I heard a scream coming from across the room, my breath fastened as I looked around cautiously seeing no one here.
"Hello?!" I called out loud fearfully as I was practically a shaking mess.
I saw a shadow go around the room, "who's there?!" I questioned trying to slow my heart rate down as it was beating out of my chest. I looked over to see someone watching me, I couldn't see there face but it looked like a man.

I felt like breaking into tears, he started running towards me with something sharp in his hand, "no...NO, GET AWAY FROM ME-" I yelled as I found out it was a knife, right when he stuck it through my skin, I screamed in pain, seeing blood leaking out from me.

"NO!" I yelled jumping up and feeling sweat on myself. I was breathing heavily and quickly as I opened my eyes to realise I was back in the car. It was just a dream....
"Are you okay?" Dan questioned anxiously as he was next to me in the back seat. I looked over at him quickly as I was still frantic because of the nightmare.
"I'm okay, wait, why is the car stopped?" I questioned looking up at him.
"We wanted to take a break, don't worrryyyy about it. Chriisssss and Phil are walking arouunnddd." He spoke sounding extremely drunk. I looked into his eyes which seemed dilated, which is a sign for someone having alcohol in them.
"Dan...how much have you had to drink?" I questioned in concern as I looked at his face, he rolled his eyes and scooted closer to me.
"I had a sip, that's all." He said yet obviously lying, I sighed still feeling tired, but not because of sleep, my body felt tired. My arms were sore and so were my legs.
"You know, Chris and Phil won't be back for awhile....." dan started to trail off. Yet I just stayed quiet, I didn't want to do anything while Dan was intoxicated.
"Come onnn....I missed you." Dan said as he started coming closer to me and our faces started coming together, my face went closer to him until our lips were brushing against each other, yet I backed away and sighed.
"I'm sorry Dan, I just don't want too right now." I spoke feeling slightly guilty, knowing Dan would probably be mad, yet all he did was kiss my cheek and grab my hand, "come on, let's go find Chris and Phil." He said while pulling my arm and going out of the car.
He held onto my hand the whole time, I've noticed he's more softer when he's drunk, he's not always trying to be the cold one and act mean or tough.
"Look um, I'm sorry about the whole Anthony thinggg." He spoke drunkenly, dragging out his words, yet it was obvious he meant what he said.
I sighed at the memories, I didn't really know what to say at this point, because I miss Anthony, and I can't forgive Dan for doing that.
"It's just that I didn't want to risk you falling for him instead, It's stupiddd I knowww but I just couldn't handle the thought of you with him." He spoke avoiding eye contact with me as he just stared down at the floor.
I moved closer too him, feeling safe around him and enjoying that feeling for once. Dan never would open up, it's weird seeing him like this. We continued walking along the road, there was a forest next to us which was incredibly beautiful, we heard the leaves crunching each step we took and the wind becoming heavy. It was so pretty outside, it felt amazing to just take a break and walk around.
Yet of course, like always, we were interrupted by a loud bullet and a scream which you would hear through out the whole forrest. "That sounded like Chris." I spoke in a panic preparing to run into the forrest to find our friends, yet I paused when I heard sirens, loud police sirens with flashing lights.
"Shit, we need to get them quickly!" I yelled beginning to run towards them. Yet I was stopped by Dan grabbing my arm and pulling me back to him.
"No, we need to run, now!" He spoke pulling my arm in attempt for me to follow him, yet I stayed still, I didn't know what to do. I could get killed if a police officer saw me, but if not Chris and Phil could die...
