Aren't I Normal?

Chapter 55

The guy at the counter asks us what we want. We have to keep in mind that we're low on cash so all we order is one sandwich.

'We'll share it,' Claude states, tearing the sandwich in half. He gives me the bigger half. I watch all this wide eyed; when we were young, we used to hate sharing with each other.

I take the other half from his hands and look around before I take a bite. I don't feel safe knowing that there were people around that could potentially call the police and get us arrested.

'Claude, we need to hide again,' I whisper to him after a few people had walked by giving us suspicious looks.

He holds up both my hands which are shivering with anxiety. 'Stop being such a scardey cat,' he teases.

'This is no time for joking around! What if we get cau-'

He covers my mouth and pushes me into an alley, grabbing me and taking me behind a large wheelie bin. From outside the alley, I could hear the chatter of someone and then the response of a radio. A police.

Claude's hand is still over my mouth. It takes a few minutes before we hear that the footsteps are leaving. Claude waited a few extra minutes just in case before letting me again.

'That was close,' Claude sighs in relief, getting up from the corner of the alley. He pulled me up to. 'From now on think positively, or you'll jinx it again!'

'Hey its not my fault that police officer just came out of no where!' I complain quietly.

'Fine,' he sighed 'It wasn't anyone's fault but we should both be more careful.'

I nod and we both leave the small alleyway with caution. Every step I take, my stomach feels more and more in knots. My legs feel numb too and I just can't help but feel the guilt for killing Allen slowly come back to me.

An idea struck me.

'Why don't we turn ourselves in!' I exclaim quietly.

'What?!' Claude has this shocked look on his face 'Are you crazy?!'

'No, I'm completely logical. Jail doesn't seem to be a bad option.'

A smirk spreads on Claude's face 'That's really cute. You think that if we get caught we'll go to jail, right?'

I nod confidently.

'Wrong! After they arrest us, they'll send us over to demon hunters and do you know what the demon hunters will do? Kill us! And they won't stop there, not until they kill every Helston on this planet! So, you still want to turn yourself in?!'

I shake my head. So that's what happens if we get caught.

How lovely.

(A/N this chapter is short and I kind of felt sorry for nearly getting them caught. Thanks for over eight hundred reads BTW! So happy)
