Sarah and Anna are like o for a piece of the le I’ve ever heard My stoer is driving us all insane obviously

"I could go for the spaghetti froh, "No the pancakes, bacon and sausage breakfast"

Sarahshe called hollandaise, secretly, to eat usting"

We pass the camp and the small charred fire that they tried to cover over I roll my eyes when Sarah points to it, "Hey look a cauesses who hid that one e caod I miss hi, "Was it Jake?" We’ve told her enough that she knows he isn’t great at survival

"Yup The branches are leading this way"

We htfall We have walked non-stop I knoe are hours froe, "We need to keep going Anna that bone is going to set wrong and you’ll never have a range of motion with it"

I don’t kno to set it It al with strips of my pale blue scrubs, which now comes up to my midriff

Sarah sniffles a little, "Em I’oing We’ll be at the first caet food and a bath"

Sarah looks defeated She slu We look like the infected We are covered in blood and dirt and our clothes are torn We even walk like the to be pissed if I walk all the way to the carows dark I would be scared if I had even an ounce of common sense left in me

I have a fever I know I do The chills of the soft breeze make my skin hurt My head is no doubt infected froe

I pushal her up the hill My legs burn My chest aches I’ inside offrom the weeks at the breeder ca way and ael of un at my head from a bird perch in a tree

"Halt"

My dry throat barely htest of words, "Help Help us" I hear the croak of it

He is waving his arht and ar her Sarah stays at rab her arm firmly, "You’re safe Find Will and Jake"

Her blue eyes fill with terror as I collapse I feel fingers grabbing at me but their faces fuzz out I slip into the darkness

I hear things So I think they’re laughing at Sarah She never leaves my side as far as I can tell My body isn’t ready to wake up So world from me

Weird confessions float in the air around s like, "I should have killed you when I had the chance"

"Emma I love you Please be okay"

"You saved her E to one person or if they are figination At one point Leo is beside lasses on When I look at him he smiles his wolf smile and says, "You never should have left me Emma"

The blackness takes oing in tunnels where I can hear but not see

I feel so up and covered in cold sweat My clothes are gone and a bandage is across my chest No one is in the tent withis there

I feel a cold shiver My arhosts of the dead girls They’re pinching h It’s tirab a robe next to h All that eating was for nothing

I stus are weak They feel like sticks My feet are sore I look at thees I lift

"You were bleeding fro outside of my tent on a chair

His eyesHe can see ers up to e I find there

He stands and walks to me His body towers over mine

"You made it back" His words are a whisper suddenly It’s as if he was terrified he would never speak the words and even now they scare hiht the tears that fill my eyes

He wraps his body around mine and lifts me into him I feel like it’s the safest place I’ve ever been in randparents, my mother, no one has ever made me feel like I do in his arms It’s the safest place in the world

"You never do that to ain Emma" His words sound wet in the crook of ain"

I shake s buckle Partly froth and partly because I’m emotional I don’t knohere to put all of the emotions They’re everywhere
