10. Getting What He Deserved

━━━━━━━━━

(POV) Chase

I flipped over, attempting to stay asleep before the light of the sun was shinning through my eyelids. I huffed as I opened my eyes to see the room was lit up by the sun as well. I rolled over again, a pang hitting my chest as I noticed Bree wasn't there any longer. Where could she be? She had gotten us ample amounts of food, so she couldn't be at the store. But she is the fastest person in the world. She could be anywhere, and we had turned off our GPS signals. There was no chance of me finding her. I threw the blanket off myself and got up, looking around carefully, wishing she would pop up into my vision. I rolled my eyes at myself. I shouldn't worry so much. We got away before the FBI was able to find us. Mr. Davenport, Leo, and Tasha would all be safe now, including us.

"Chase?" Adam called quietly as he walked out into the hallway, rubbing his eyes before he ran into he left wall. "Owe! Where did that wall come from?" He hissed as he switched his attention to his elbow. I shook my head at my brother... Well really my adoptive brother. I was perfectly fine with the fact that Bree and I weren't related, or the fact that Bree and Adam were as well. But knowing that Adam and I had no connections whatsoever, got to me. I had always felt like I needed an older brother to look up to, no matter how stupid Adam is. I knew how strong he could be in situations like this. In any situation really. After all, we had been through together, it changed me.

"Are you okay?" I asked, a hint of laughter in my voice as I tried to pull my attention away from my own thought. Adam had always been good at distracting me. Adam shook his head as he let it hang low on his way out to the living room. He shoved the blanket that Bree had had last night to the side before taking a seat.

"No, it hurts." Adam whined. I laughed playfully as I patted him on the shoulder.

"It shouldn't hurt for long. You only hit it on the wall, it's not like you broke-"

"Not my arm, Chase. I miss home. We shouldn't have given up that easily." Adam interrupted, a seriousness taking over his voice that I had never heard before. I frowned as I looked to him, I could see the hurt written all over his face. He had been locked away in that back room all night. It had slipped my mind after the happiness of Bree and I finally proclaiming our love for each other.

"Adam, I'm sorry. I didn't know what else to do." I defended. I knew he thought this was all my fault; That we had left them behind under my control. I know I was mission leader, but this was nowhere near my master plan. The only plan in affect, was survival. That's all we had to worry about now.

"Don't be sorry, not about that anyway. I know we did what we had to do, and I'm grateful that we found this place. But what I'm worried about, is us. What's going to happen to the three of us anyway? I know you and Bree will probably leave to live your lives together and whatnot-"

"Why would Bree and I live together?" I asked, the worry seeping through my voice as I asked the question I had been hoping I would never have to. I knew Adam could be smart whenever he felt like it, which wasn't a lot of the time. So him knowing about Bree and I, wasn't exactly out of his range. He shrugged as he thought through his words, which again, was a rarity.

"I know how you two feel about each other. But with us leaving to start our own lives, is scary. I always thought that I would have Mr. Davenport to help us get going, or that I would never leave at all. I just, don't want to be alone, I guess. I left everything I care about except you two behind in mission creek." Adam explained as his face fell flat. I knew he cared about the other half of our family. I would be lying if I said that I didn't miss them just as much as he did. But this couldn't be breaking him up that much. There had to he something more to the story.
