5 MONTHS LATER
5 months. 5 months since I found my sister. 5 months since I met Joel. 5 whole months.
I'm leaving Bill now. I can't believe that I am doing this. I promised I wouldn't leave another person, but its either Bill or Ellie. I haven't made up my mind yet, they gave me the choice when they were looking for the car.
"When we find the car, You are going to have to come with Joel and I or stay with Bill." Ellie had said. However, by the look in her eyes she could tell that I was going to choose her. I'm hesitant to tell Bill that I chose to stay with my sister. I'm sure he will understand... Right?
WRONG! I was SO wrong. When I told them what I had chose, Ellie hugged me, Joel.. Well Joel didn't really care. In fact, I think he was mumbling something like 'Great. Another stubborn little girl I have to watch over.' Rude. Bill.... He just stood there in shock for a while. After he came back, he started saying things like, 'Partners only get you killed' or 'Now I only have one person I need to keep alive and feed. That's going to make it a h*ll of a lot easier for me.' I feel really bad, but I can't lose my sister again. Even if I do have to stay with Joel. I'm still trying to get to trust him more, but that's kind of hard when you and your younger sister's life is in his hands, and if he does one thing we are all screwed. So, by instinct I am trying to take my sister away from him and get us somewhere safe. I'm going to do it slowly, I won't do any harm to him, he won't even notice us gone. I don't know when it will happen though. It may be a few days, a few weeks, a few months, h*ll maybe even a whole year! Either way, I WILL get us away from being experimented on. I know Ellie doesn't know this, but I do. They don't care about us. They care about themselves. They don't care if they take two innocent girls' lives away. They just want themselves to live. I am not going to meet that kind of fate. I know that Ellie is still upset about losing Riley, but I am not going to let Ellie go up into Heaven with Mom and Dad and Riley. I may sound selfish, But I need Ellie.
We are now in the car, driving towards where ever we are going. I'm sitting in the passengers seat, while Ellie is in the back, reading magazines. I have no idea what she is reading, but I don't really care. I started talking to Joel about random stuff, getting to know him so I could try to trust him. I'm really hopping we can sneak away soon. The longer we are in this car, or with Joel, the closer we are to our deaths.
