Aren't I Normal?

Chapter 35

I kept tossing and turning in bed, thinking about what I had done. Had someone already found his body? Are more hunters coming to kill me?

I was awoken by Claude, shaking my shoulder and calling my name.

'Wake up, we have to go now.'

I yawned 'Go were?'

'Didn't I tell you? We're running away.'

'What time is it?' I yawned looking at the window. It was still dark outside.

'Its 5 in the morning,' he replied, fixing my, I mean, his bed.

'Why so early?' I moaned.

'Because,' he moaned back 'We might get caught if we go any later. Get ready,'

I finally got out of bed and gestuted him to leave the room.

He handed my my clothes.

'Where did you get these from?' I asked.

'Your apartment,' he answered.

He left the room so I could change.

After I had got into my clothes, he knocked on the door.

'Are you done yet?' He groaned.

'Yes,'

He opened the door. 'Just to let you know,' he began 'We aren't coming back here. Ever.'

I nodded.

We left his room. Claude handed me a backpack and wore bigger one himself.

'What's in here?' I asked.

'Clothes.'

Claude and I left his apartment.

We walked down the stairs in silence.

It was cold outside. I shivered even if I was wearing a coat.

'Where are we going?' I whispered.

'Anywhere.'

'Where will we stay? How will we live and eat and-'

'Shut up,' he interrupted. 'You talk too much,'

We both walked to a bus stand. The first bus that came, we had to hop on and go wherever it was taking us.

The bus was obviously empty with maybe one or two passengers that got on and left at the next stop.

'Where will we stop?' I whispered to Claude.

'At the end of the bus route.' He replied.

He reached out and held my hand. His hands were cold.

They wrapped around my sweaty palms, giving it a little squeeze.

'Let's forget everything and start again,' he whispered into my ear. 'Let's be friends.'

I turned to face him. 'Yeah,' I replied 'let's be friends.'

Was this going to be the beginning of Claude and mine new relationship? I just hope we just stayed friends. I didn't want it to develop into anything else. Not that it will.

Claude was different. I know he wouldn't fall in love with me and me in love with him. It was something impossible.

(A/N Is it Raven? Is it impossible??? Yeah maybe, I don't know.)
