I slowly pulled out the knife that was stuck in my thigh the best I could. Aaron helped me. There was a deep gash in my left thigh. Aaron and I just say there. He would often murmur , "it'll be okay Abbs" and all I could do was just nod because I was on so much pain.
The rebel came in every hour and tortured me. And every time he would make my family watch. I passed out the 5th hour and the rebel tried to kick me awake. I could hear Aaron screaming at him to stop. He finally left. Aaron untied himself and ran over to me. He gathered me up in his arms and held me close to him. It would be romantic if it weren't for the situation we were in.
"Are we still on for the date tomorrow?" I asked joking. He smiled and nodded his head. He was about to say something but was cut off by the sound of the door opening.
"It hasn't been an hour yet. Leave her alone" he shouted.
"Calm down Aaron it's me" the guy said.
"Aspen? What are you doing here?" Aaron asked.
"I'm here to get you out. Now come on we gotta get going before anyone notices you're gone" he whispered. Aaron nodded and picked me up bridal style with his strong arms. Aspen offered to carry me but he refused to hand me over. We ran for a while but then I heard gunshots. I saw familiar guards that worked at the palace form a wall around us, protecting us. Then I passed out.
I woke up to the sound of a helicopter. I was still in Aaron's arms. We reached the helicopter. Aaron handed me over to a different guard and got in. I was put down on a stretcher. Aaron sat right by me and held my hand the hold time. I looked back up and passed out again.
