Y/n pov
My brother and I were locked in kelce closet. Ward has framed us for the murder of sheriff peterkin and now we've been on the run for hours.
"John B." A voice said that definitely wasn't kelces.
"Topper?" My brother asked through the door. Topper? As in my boyfriend topper?
"Topper come on you gotta let me out. Just let me go." My brother said leaning against the door.
"Yeah, I can't do that." Topper laughed. "So tell me why did you do it? Why'd you kill her?" He asked. I rolled my eyes and my brother sighed
"I didn't kill her topper. Rafe did." John B said.
"Rafe did? Ok sure." Topper said clearly not believing him.
"Hey John B question here." Topper said again. "Did you fuck her? Sarah, did you?" He asked trying to get on my brothers nerves.
"No." My brother scoffed. Clearly lying John B.
"Really?" Topper chuckled.
"Yes-no- well yes. Ok yes I did but could you not say that word. It's gross." John B said.
"Oh I'm sorry. What would you like me to say? Love?" Topper joked.
I had enough of this. I grabbed my brothers had and gave him a look. A look to just get us out of here. Forget sarah right now.
"Topper, just, please let us go. We didn't do it." My brother said with worry. It was silent from topper for a moment.
"We? Who's with you?" Topper asked. I let out a deep sigh.
"Top, it's me." I said, resting a hand on the door.
"Baby?" He said in almost a whisper.
"Yeah top. It's me." I said sadly.
"Y/n! Holy shit!" He said freaking out.
"Kelce! We-I-." Topper was struggling to say.
"Topper you know me. We didn't kill peterkin. Please just help us. Help me topper." I begged him.
"We're not letting you out." I hear kelces voice say.
"Kelce. We. We gotta. She's in there! Baby I'm sorry." Topper said and was clearly trying to unlock the door against kelces protest. He was nervous, angry, and worried all at once I could tell even though a door stood between us.
"Y/n." My brother whispered and pointed down. He has removed a vent that was able to get us to the outside. I took one last glance at the door then booked it out the hole and to the outside. John B and I ran as fast as we possibly could.

"John B there gonna find us." I cried into him as we stood at the bell tower. The old church my father always took us to; was where we were hiding currently.
"No they won't. We'll be ok." He said holding me in his arms.
"I thought topper was better then that." I mumbled against him. He let out a sigh.
"What do you mean?" He asked.
"If he believed me. If he trusted me then he would've let us out." I said sadly.
"I'm sorry." My brother said not really knowing what to say to me.
"John B. Y/n." We heard a gasp behind us. There was sarah Cameron on the ladder looking up at us.
"Sarah." My brother smiled and helped her up. I watched them hug and kiss. I wish I could be doing that with topper, but he didn't trust me.
"The whole town is look-." Sarah was cut off from the latch opening again. Topper.
"Topper." I breathed out.
"Sarah get away from them." Topper said worried.
"Topper no!" Sarah exclaimed.
"They killed peterkin." He said and it almost seemed as if he would cry.
"No they didn't. Topper, Rafe killed her." Sarah said.
"Look they've got you brainwashed!" Topper yelled. What was he going on about? This wasn't the topper that I fell in love with. Tears started to fall down my face.
"Why would I Lie about it? Why would I say that about my own brother." Sarah told him. Realization seemed to hit him. He believed us now.
"Rafe." He mumbled to himself. "Rafe killed her." He said. He looked at Sarah and John B. Lastly he looked at me.
"Y/n." He said as a tear fell down his face. I gave him a nod and moved forward to hug him. We heard police sirens coming closer.
"Topper if you love my sister then you'll help us." My brother said. I didn't let go of topper. I was a little upset that he didn't believe us at first but I probably would be the same way if I was in his situation. I hugged onto topper and let him kiss my head.
"I do love her." Topper mumbled to my brother. It made me smile again this chest what he said.
"Topper change cloths with John B. They'll think your him." Sarah said quickly motioning to the boys. Reluctantly I let topper go.

"I love you." Topper told me right as we all reached the bottom of the ladder. Smoke was filling up my lungs fast.
"I love you too. If you want. I leave at the docks at 3. Bring no one." I told him and kissed one last time before I ran away with Sarah and John B.

"Where's Sarah?" My brother asked as we made it to the pogues and the phantom. Currently I Kiara and I were hugging. It was hard to say goodbye to them all but especially her. She was my number one best friend.
"We thought she was with you." JJ said.
"Did topper come by?" I asked them.
"No. Sorry y/n." Pope said sadly. I gave him a nod and leaned against Kiara.
"Y/n!" We heard a yell as JJ was telling us where we needed to go on the boat. Turning away from Kie I saw topper.
"Topper." I breathed out and ran into his open arms. He twirled me around.
"I love you so much. Don't forget that." I told him culling his face. We both were crying at this point.
"I love you too baby." He said sadly.
"I'll be back in a couple months. Don't forget about me." I told him wiping a tear away. He nodded and hugged me again.
"I love you." I cried into his chest.
"Y/n it's time to go." John B said to us. I pulled away from topper. I gave him one last kiss before climbing up into the boat.
"I'm sorry." John B told everyone. All I could do was look at my friend and boyfriend. Tears were running much faster down my face now.
"I love you. I love you all!" I yelled to them as John B drove us away.
"We'll see you soon!" Kiara said back trying to hold in tears clearly. All I wanted was topper right now.

"John B! Y/n!" We heard a girls yell. Sarah Cameron was running down a dock.
"John B stop the boat." I said excited.
"You left and weren't gonna say goodbye." Sarah said kissing my brother. Then she turned to me.
"Y/n this is for you." She said handing me a note. "Oh and it's laminated he didn't want it ruined by the storm." She smiled at me. I sat down and blocked everything out.
To my world,
In a few months I hopefully will get to see you again. I'm sorry I didn't trust you in the beginning. Please forgive me. I love you and I will never stop loving you. I will remember our last hugs, kisses and love you until I see you again. Be safe out there. I love you babygirl,
Topper
I sobbed as I read the note. I might not ever get to see him again.
