MILES AND LEXIE SAT LIKE SITTING DUCKS——the police sirens began flooding the area.

they sat side by side before bright blue and red lights came passing by,

"get down!" miles shouted as they both ducked, miles laying with his neck and head resting against the door.

lexie rolled onto the floor of the car, both of their hearts racing as they breathed heavily.

"fuck this is bad" miles muttered, the sirens began to fade away as the cops drove past.

miles turned around and peeked out of the window, he saw the cars pass.

"okay i think we're good" he said before letting out a deep sigh of relief.

both him and lexie sat up with wide eyes,

"we need to get everyone NOW" lexie said with wide eyes, both miles and lexie got up and hopped into the front seat.

just at that, the back door of the car swung open, timothee, iris and noah all jumped in.

"GO!" noah screamed as all three of them were panting, miles immediately pulled out and drove away,

"where is everyone else?!" miles shouted as they began driving away,

"talking to the cops, don't worry we came up with a story..." timothee said as he rested his head on the back of the chair.

"which is?" lexie asked,

"us five plus caleb were all walking the beach, taking a fresh breath of air because it was hot in there, while we were walking we heard the gunshot but didn't see who it was" iris said.

"...if we all have the same story the police can't prove anything against miles, which means we need to hide the evidence" timothee said,

"do you have the gun?" lexie asked as she turned her head to face miles.

miles pulled the gun out of his side pocket before resting against the center council,

"we need to ditch the gun, now" timothee said with wide eyes.

"i'm already one step ahead of you bud" miles said as they pulled onto a side bridge in the middle of nowhere,

he grabbed the gun before he got out of the car and started walking towards the edge of the bridge.

within one swift motion, he threw the gun off of the bridge, dropping into the freezing river below.

miles ran back to the car as fast as they could,

"they will never look here" he said as he began driving away,

"what if i get caught?" miles contradicts himself, lexie sighed before responding,

"you are not going to get caught, as long as we have the same story and the evidence is gone they cannot prove anything against you" she said,
