Harvey
--------
I run my hand through my curls, yet again.

"What have I done..."

"Harvey?"
A distant shout caught my attention.

I spring out from my bed and glance out the window, who is- I gasp.

"Jay..." I whisper, my eyes expand from happiness.

"He came to find me..." I stand in amazement, letting out a little laugh.

I open my window wider, "Jay!"
My smile grew larger and larger every minute.

"Wait there, I'll be down in a minute!"
I instruct him.

Jay
----
"Harvey! I've finally found him!"

Harvey unlocks his door and steps outside, closing it gently behind him. We sprint into a bear hug, I had to be careful not to fall over! Damn, I missed that scent of his. I didn't release him, my arms felt stuck.

"I can't stay away from you, I want your company.."

I pull away ever so slightly, just so I can see his beautiful face. He stays silent, grinning whilst eyeing me up and down.

"I feel disgusted for leaving you, I really did."
I analyse his golden features as he spoke.

Out of nowhere, Harvey cupped his hands around my face and kneels his forehead on mine. I couldn't help but wrap my arms around his waist.

"What the hell?!"
A stranger yells.

"That's just damn vile!"
Another stranger laughs.

I loosen my grip and quickly pull away.

"Harvey, stop a moment.."
I say, serious.

"HARVEY RUN!!"
I cry.

The hooded boys head towards us, we both decide to run.

"Harvey, we must split up!"
I beg him, it's for his own good.

I divide from Harvey, my heart aches... I sprint as fast as my legs would take me to a nearby forest, on the way jumping over small ditches and brambles. I leap over more bushes and fences until I arrive in the forest, no sign of the boys. Good. I let out a sigh in relief while catching my breath under an oak tree.

"I hope Harvey's safe."
I worry.

Harvey
--------
I divide from Jay, my heart hurt as I left him all by himself. I sprint to a nearby park where I hid in some bushes, the sunset was beautiful - if only I could share that moment with him... I listen closely. Footsteps became louder.

"Bro, I've lost him!"
He grunts.

"You're such an idiot!"
The other snarls.

Footsteps became quieter as they ran off in the distance. I am safe now... but is Jay?!

Jay
-----
The sun began to set. Dark blues and purples -and even pinks spread across the sky... if only Harvey was by my side.

"Get him!"
The boys scream.

They found me?! I get up in utter shock and let out a cry by accident, however, I focus my mind with what's in front of me and run with all my strength. The chase was on.
