CH4PTER SIX

I wake up. Immediately feel a sense of calm in the school. I wondered what was going on...

I woke up Nick, but I just lay there on his stomach. He stroked my hair softly. After about five minutes of this, we randomly changed positions. He sat up, and I climbed into his lap, he wrapped his arms underneath me and cradled me. We stayed like this until I'm sure I fell asleep, because when my eyes opened, Nick's were closed. I was surprised that he could still hold me up with all of his strength in his sleep.

I woke him up and we walked to the door. We were right above the orange planet, and Nick said we were stuck in it's orbit. If we didn't land, we could be stuck here forever. We looked around. It looked like there was multiple landforms like earth. A mountain here and there, craters. But the "grass" must have been a light red and the "rock" must be green because all of the mountains ha green tops and the ground was an orangish color.

We walked back and tried to pop open another locker, and inside was probably the most helpful thing we've found. A pack of water bottles, I guess someone was supplying for the school.

We each grabbed a bottle and sat by the window. I sat in his lap while he strokes my hair.

"Tess?"

"Yeah..."

"Does this mean that you like me?"

I look at him. The features. His hair, his golden brown eyes. I smile, "Yes, Nick. I like you alot."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Then Tess, even though we are in outer space...will you go out with me?"

I smiled, "Yes! Yes a million times."

Then we kissed.

He pulled me in and our lips touched just enough for me to know that he really did love me. And that I wouldn't be alone. I stop the kiss. We sit there, foreheads touching, lips half an inch away. He pulls me into a hug. I smile. I look out the window. I back away and so does he.

Illusions formed around us. Or me. Feathers floating around, a bunch of blue bubbles with eyes, an asteroid flying toward the school...

Wait that's not an illusion.

"Run!" Nick and I say simultaneously. We run down the hall and to our closet, throwing supplies over us and holding hands. Nick pulled me close and covered me with his body. He was so strong.

But I had a feeling he wouldn't be strong enough to hold back the next few seconds of who knows what.

Ooooooooh no!!! Will they be ok?
