Trapped (COMPLETED)

35

Angel walked in Faith's room the time he always did, this time he tried to cook for her, seeing that she liked the eggs he made. He also came in with glasses he ran out to buy for her. Not sure why, but as he walks in he sees her still asleep.

He puts the food on his night table with the glasses and looks at her, strands of hair feel on her face as calmly breaths in and out, this is the calmest he has ever seen her, he looks at her arms with the bands around them and very slowly takes the bands off, her wrist where healed leaving little marks on them, but it looks good. He moves his hands to take off her other band and moves his attention to her bad ankle.

He looks at it, seeing no red anymore, as he unwraps it as he sees little spots of red that could barely be seen, she was healing well, he thought about what could make the healing faster, then he remembers he had a bottle of rubbing alcohol with marijuana, that takes away the pain immediately, he looked up at faith and saw she was still sleeping, she looked really peaceful. “She won't wake up” he whispers and walks outside the door leaving it open to get the alcohol.

He walks out to the bathroom that was next to his living room looking for it, the last time he used it was years ago, he wondered if it was still gonna work. But as he entered the bathroom he knocked down a glass that he had where he kept his toothbrush, breaking it. “Damn it” he mumbles. Picking up the glass that broke.

Faith's eyes open from the sound, looking directly to her plate of pancakes, the smell made her smile as she got up to only gasp, the door was open, she looked around trying to find Angel as she sees her hands, she didn't have the bands anymore.

Slowly and quiet she gets off the bed testing her ankle that didn't have a band anymore either, feeling it. She moves it a couple times flexing and pointing it until she gets up, she breathes starts to get higher and faster as she walks out into the long hallway, getting to the end she stops, flexing and pointing her ankle again, looking around, she didn't see Angel.  Then it hit her, “I'm leaving today, I'm seeing Walter today” she thinks, slowly she moves over the room, using chairs to cover her as she walked around his place, she stops hearing footsteps in the living room, as she walks to the edge, she pecks out and sees Angel in the bathroom pick up glass. She hides behind the wall completely, feeling her body shake as she hears footsteps, but sighs when she hears them getting far away.

Again she looks at the bathroom that was now empty, but hides again as she hears footsteps coming back, her forehead sweated and her hands got wet in seconds. As the footsteps stop she looks again and sees Angel looked in the cabinet of the bathroom, his backs facing the door. Faith gulps saliva in her mouth and walks as fast and as quietly as she can in the living room, crossing it completed until she got to the kitchen, hiding behind the wall, she looks at the door and looks back at Angel who was still looking through cabinets, and runs to the door trying to unlock it but her hand were so slippery that she could, she rubs them on her leggings and tries again this time unlocking it and opening it.

Putting her foot outside she Looks around, only a few houses that looked abandoned and a street like 10 feet (ca. 3 m) away. Just as she hears footsteps again she runs, limping as she does, not wanting to pressure her ankle too much.

Angel gets the bottle and walks back to the room, standing still seeing she wasn't in here, he looks at the pancakes and the bathroom door closed. “Faith you in there?” He walks in knocking on the door and opening it once she didn't answer, only to run out when he wasn't there, he looks in the first room nothing, living room nothing, when he got to the kitchen he gasped the door was open. “Faith!” He screams as he ran out.

Faith heard him and runs faster feeling panic take over her, she reached the road and looks both ways, one was a long road with nothing and the other was a curve, she took her chances and run towards the curve part hoping there would he something or someone there, she looked back and Angel was right in back of her running towards her.
