stay calm i think to myself.''step away from him'' Jacob says.I'm still paralyzed from shock of my brother blood.''ill kill 'em'',she says with slight accent.i need to think fast,i finally get enough courage to speak.''no you wont'',she looks at me clearly not realizing my presence.shes pregnant .i can tell by the way she carries her baby belly that it isn't the first one.

''you wont because your a mother too and you don't have it in you to kill a child''.reverse psychology is working well on my hand right now.''boy or girl ?'' i ask ''boy'' she says simply no emotion in her voice.i can see Jacob getting annoyed with this conversation.''whats his name''.''Cameron his name was Cameron''.i step as close as i can before she steps away.''you killed him didn't you''. a sob escapes her lips and she starts mumbling incoherent words.''i didn't want to'' is all i hear before half of her head blows of.i look at the direction of the shooter and its Jacob.i rush towards him pushing him against the brick wall.''double homicide ,you just committed a double fucking homicide you prick ! ''.Jacob looks surprised by my outburst once again.right before i punch him my brother starts coughing and i hug him.''tee I'm okay'' he says and i let go.''looks like someone was studying law'' Jacob says ''it doesn't matter who i kill''.''you don't get it your gonna live the wrest of your life knowing you killed an Innocent person and I'm not talking about the baby''.he looks annoyed ''deal with it okay,i saved both your asses and next time i wont''.i get my brother and walk out of the ally with him on my back.

he follows as we continue walking in silence.''central park'' he says.i shrug.''last week i was here at the Jason derulo concert.you know the g.m.a ones''.he continues ''bet there glad they moved the white house now,but  out of all places new York''.i look up at him.''is this what you don when you get mad just don't talk''

''yea if i were to talk this would be a screaming match''i say.he ignores my comment.

''so there's a safe house i heard of a few Miles down my family and i were headed there before-'' he trails off i nod in understanding.

there are sounds of footsteps around the corner and Jacob pulls me in  between two buildings.the space is so small with my brother on my back that his face is barley an inch away from mine.hes breathing heavily and so am i.''I'm so glad your breath doesn't stink''.he grins ''cant say the same for you''.i breath harder in his face and he scrunches up his noise playfully.after a few seconds standing there between a rock and a hard place literally the voices and footsteps die down and we continue walking.

''so safe house ?'' i say continuing the earlier conversation.''yea its about 15 miles from here hope you can walk''.i roll my eyes.''so what do you think this is'' he says gesturing to the air in front of him.'' terrorist attack.people trying to kill us and stuff''.he looks at me with a thoughtful stare I'm sure hes only thinking about what to say.''oblivion'' he says simply.''what''.

''oblivion the state of being--''.''i know what it means''.''oh,the world is basically saying it doesn't need us or that we're over populating quickly ,starting with..what ?''.he says and i realize that I've been staring.''you think I'm crazy'' he says blushing''.i never thought someone so cute could be so smart i think.''no..but if that's what you believe then so be it but  i think your on to something''.we find a heavily bushed area to camp out on.i wouldn't call it camping out we are in the middle of what might as well be called the Apocalypse.''what do you mean'' he says after i put my brother down.''oh its an airborne chemical and we had that horrible storm a few weeks before this and something ,i don't know what, is the reason for this,i think some plant of some sort but its completely illogical''.he grins and looks at me hes going to say something stupid he has that look on his face.''its not who on earth would've thought that would've came from that smart mouth of yours''.i roll my eyes and lay back on my bag with my brother next to me.''you sleep first ill keep watch''.'goodnight tee''. i reach over and punch his arm.''dont call me that or else ill have to hurt you''.he puts his hands up in defense and goes straight to sleep.
