"Fire! The fire's spread!" I hear someone yell, I open my eyes to see I'm in the same spot I was few hours earlier, below the tree.

I get up and rush to the fire with my book in hand, seeing my mom, and Luciana.


"We need more water!" Jake yells, everyone is just rushing to turn off the fire.

"I need more water." Jake adds.


"Bring the rest of it! Come on!" Troy yells.

"Martha and Russell are dead now, aren't they?" I look at the little girl beside me, she does has a point.


Jeremiah passes by us to see everything that's happening.


"Stop! They're gone. Save the water. Let it burn." Jeremiah commands.

"Where were you?" My mom asks.


"Fell asleep reading a book by a tree." I reply as we walk to the cabin with Nick, and Luciana following behind.

I walk around the two cars, going to the truck that Troy is sitting in driver.


"Be safe out there." I warn him.

"I'll protect Madison." He assures me.


"You better. I should talk to my mom." I say, he steals a quick peek.

"We'll be back in two days."


"Two days? That's too long." I mumble.


I go around the car, seeing my mom not looking at us.


Safe


"Mom, take care of yourself." I tell her as my two siblings leave her.

"Same goes to you." She says, she hugs me before she gets in the passenger spot. Troy gives me a smile before he drives away.

I get a tray full of food, and go to the tree from yesterday. I just eat and read.

Once I'm done, I leave the tray back at the mess hall and go to Troy's house. I change into one of his shirts which are way bigger than mine and get myself tug into his bed.

~

"PST." I open my eyes to see Jake.

"Yeah?" I mumble, closing my eyes but completely awake.

"Time to wake up." Jake  leaves me alone, I get up and do Troy's bed. I change my outfit back to the one I had. I go to the mess hall and make myself breakfast.

I just sit alone, why would I make friends? If something happens, I'll get hurt and its already bad enough to be attached with Troy.


"Luciana left." Nick says,  without siting in front of me.

Nick turns around and leave, why am I always the one who doesn't socializes a lot.


"Hey, book girl." I look up to see a very good looking jet black spiked hair.

"Hi?" I say, I'm confused on why he's even here.


"Would you go out on a date with me?" He asks.
