Chapter Ten

Helping out Glenn

▬ Third Person- No one’s P.O.V ▬  

     “After fifty days of being in camp you failed to tell me you brought some of my stuff from the house?” Electra asked searching through the black trolley bag packed to the brim with her and some valuable family stuff. 

     “I don’t know Ellie,” Shane shook his head sitting down in the corner of his tent with his hands in his thick, dark, curled hair. “Guess it just skipped my mind,” he shrugged casually. “To be honest with you, I’m still overwhelmed that we found each other during this,” Shane admitted. 

     “Overwhelmed and hella thankful,” Electra looked at her brother over her shoulder with a smile on her lips before turning back around to search through the suitcase again. “Is this what I think this is?” Electra asked in surprise as she took a tape out of the suitcase.

     “Yeah,” Shane responded as Electra held out the tape so that he could see it without having to turn around. “Yeah it is,” Shane nodded.

     “Well,” she exclaimed. “I’ll be damned,” Electra laughed out of taking the tape in between her two fingers examining it. “Those were the days, huh?” she commented with a small smile before placing the tape back on the pile in which she had looked at.  

     “Yes they were,” Shane agreed looking down at the green base of his tent. “So….” He started awkwardly. “Glenn’s off today,” Shane stated as he looked back up, only seeing Electra’s back as she was bent over the suitcase, searching thoroughly through it.

     “Yup,” Electra nodded as she came across a little black ring box with a white ribbon around it. “Oh wow,” Electra opened it revealing a plain silver ring. “Gramps wedding ring,” she smiled before snapping the ring box shut and placing it on the pile.

     “Who do you think he’s gonna take with him?” Shane asked, not meaning to ignore Electra’s comment but his mind was focusing on something else.

     “Whoever offers I guess,” Electra shrugged. “I mean, he wants a small and select group of people who are useful and I doubt they’ll be many volunteers,” Electra explained. “Thea was thinking of volunteering, don’t get me wrong, she’s a lovely girl but she’s not fighter material,” 

     “And……” he trailed off. “Are you going to…..volunteer?” Shane questioned causing Electra to freeze, close her eyes and take a deep breath in. 

     “Yeah,” she nodded facing a side of the green tent. 

     “Ellie, please,” Shane pleaded, causing Electra to turn around and meet Shane’s eyes who were now boring into hers. “I only just got you back, I don’t want to lose you again….I can’t lose you,” Shane frowned at her causing her to reach out to him and grab his hand.
