Ring. Ring. Ring. Ring.
"Ahhhhh...it's bloody 1:30 in the morning." Nori sighed. "Who's calling at this time?!"
"It's Dwalin." Bofur sighed. "Hello?"
Nori sat up and watched Bofur's face, his beautiful beautiful face. He kissed his shoulder and watched Bofur listen to whatever it was Dwalin was telling him. He frowned when he saw Bofur's face fall.
"What do ya mean escaped?"
"What?" Nori asked. "Who escaped?"
BANG! BANG!
"Who the...?"
"NORI! OPEN THIS DAMN DOOR NOW!"
"Who's tha' then?" Bofur asked turning towards Nori.
Nori frowned. "It sounds like Eric."
"Old friend?"
"He's a cop. So I know him through Thorin."
"What was tha' Dwalin?" Bofur asked holding his finger up.
Nori kissed Bofur's cheek and got out of bed. He quickly pulled his boxers and pants on and walked to the door
"Wha' do ya mean don' trust Eric?" Bofur asked getting out of bed and doing the same. "Eric who-"
"FUCK!"
Bofur jumped when he heard Nori yell. He started walking towards the bedroom door but stopped when he heard the front door slam.
"Bofur?!" Dwalin yelled through the phone. "What's going on?!"
"I don- Nori what's going on?"
"We need to get out of here. NOW!"
"Why? What happened? Are-are ye bleeding?!" Bofur shoved his phone in his pocket and grabbed for Nori.
"No time to explain! We need to leave now. Come on!" Nori said grabbing Bofur's hand and pulling him towards the back door.
Bofur followed but stopped in front of the front door. He opened his mouth to say something but was pulled back and pushed toward the back door.
BANG! BANG!
"I'm coming for ya Nori!"
"Nori, did tha' man just shoot our door?!" Bofur asked as he was dragged out of their apartment and towards the pool.
"Yes!" Nori said turning to look at Bofur. "How do we get out of here?"
"No-"
Nori grabbed Bofur's shoulder and stared at him. "The way out! Where is it!"
Bofur gulped and felt tears start to run down his cheek. He started to sob and fell to his knees.
"Dammit Bofur, please don't do this now!" Nori said leaning down. "We need to get out of here!"
Bofur looked up at Nori and let out another sob.
"Bofur, please, where's the way out?" Nori asked feeling tears starting to form in his eyes. "I can't let you die."
Bofur closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He then stood up and led Nori towards the way out. When they got to the gate Bofur sighed and started to sob again.
"What? What is it?" Nori whispered.
"Ye-ye need a key t-to open the gate!" Bofur whispered back between sobs.
"Sh-wait!" Nori said putting his hands in his pockets. "These are the pants I had on last night, the same pants I had my keys in."
Bofur smiled and stepped back so Nori could open the gate. Right as he put the key in he stopped and pushed Bofur against the wall.
