Blake's POV

I was all ready in the all black clothing we planned and was heading to Alexa's room when I see the last thing I wanted to see.

Andrew. Andrew was at Alexa's door and she was talking to him with a robe on. Good quick disguise, I thought. I sneak my way slowly over, he doesn't see me. I don't know if Alexa did or not.

I sneak up right behind him and knock him across the head with my fist, cutting him off mid sentence.

I look to Alexa to see her looking at me surprised and a bit angry, which confused me. Why was she angry? I did her favor.

"What are you thinking?! Now when he comes to he'll know!" She says, and I look at her confused and suddenly nervous.

"Well I thought he knew and was trying to stop you or something..." I say, with an unintentional stutter. Gosh dang it, why did I have to stutter?

"He was just telling me he knew what you people do for work. He didn't know anything. Agh who cares, just bring him in here!" She says, and I immediately grab his arms and drag him into the room. He's heavier than he looks. Especially considering he's a short dude, not as short as Alexa but he's only 5'6". So not incredibly short but he's heavier than he should be. I'm not a doctor or anything but... Oh whatever, I have more important things to worry about.

I place him on the side of the bed and we get right into our plan.

-----------------------------------------------------------

We made it successfully out through the fence and are currently on the run. I parked a car about 15 miles from the estate but it's a long way so we're running there now. We're going to have to stop to rest soon though. I can tell by Alexa starting to fall behind and I'm starting to get a bit tired myself. We run under the canopy of the trees, farther and farther from the mansion.

I stop a few minutes later underneath one of the larger trees. We were far enough from the mansion that we couldn't see it anymore, but still now all too safe.

I sit down next to the trunk and wait for Alexa to catch up. She arrives not too much later and sits down next to me. I grab a water bottle out of our bag and hand it to her then grab one for myself. We chug the water thirstily and soon finish off our bottles.

I decide it would be a good idea to rest. "You should sleep. We're going to need our rest if we want to make it the rest of the way to the car. I'll take first watch." I say, and look at her.

We still had a long way to go, but at least we made it out of the mansion and into the forest safely. That's what matters. We were close. We were very close to making our way out of here, but it still seemed so far away. We were so close, yet so far.

This is only a filler chapter. That's why it's so short. Sorry. Hopefully this will be the only one.
