"Put your hands up," The guy said, pointing the gun straight at Kyles head.

"Fine," Kyle said, lifting his hands, not taking his eyes off the guy. "Take it easy,"

"Shut up. Another word and I'll shoot you through the head." Then he waved the gun towards me. "Get up."

I slowly stood up, glancing at kyle. He just nodded at me, and I have to admit he looked slightly scared. Not that that surprised me. I was crapping myself too.

"Mel, get out here," The guy said, and a short, brown haired girl stepped out from behind the tree. I couldn't believe I hadn't seen her before. Mind you, I had been more concerned by the gun being pointed freely at my head.

"Wake them up," It took me a second to realise she was speaking to me.

"Okay," I mumbled, slowly walking over to ian and sunnys sleeping bag. I bent down, careful to not turn my back on the gun, and nudged them. Nothing happened, so I did it again.

Then I realised there was no one in it.

"There... there not in there..." I stuttered, shaking my head.

"Lies!" The guy shouted, "Get them out here or I'll shoot you through the head." He didn't look like he was joking around.

"But... but there... there not here... there... I, I dunno. There not here." I have to admit I was very close to crying. I didn't like the fact I was being told what to do. Or that I had something dangerous and deadly pointed at my brain. Or that Sunny and Ian weren't here.

"Where the fuck are they then?" The guy said, looking at kyle. The gun was still pointed at me. "Tell me or I'll shoot her."

"Woah. Hang on there. You don't want to do that."

"Shut up." The guy said. "You, get over here."

He was talking to me.

"Get over here." He repeated.

I slowly walked over, until I was in touching distance of him. He looked so different this close. Much more scary, the dark colour of his eyes portraying years of built up anger. His face was unwashed, his clothes scruffy. He didn't even seem to have a proper bag, just a strange blanket thing that he slung over his shoulder.

He reached out and grabbed my hair, pulling me so I was tightly held infront of him. I felt a cold thing touch my temple, and froze when I realised it was a gun.

"Jared," The girl, Mel, reached out and touched his arm, but he just shook her away.

"Shut up."

"But... it's gone too far... lets just go." She pleaded.

"Shut UP!" His hands tightened around me, and the gun pressed painfully into me. "Give me the bag."

Kyle got the bag, and threw it down at Jareds feet.

"Give me the girl."

Jared shoved me, and I tripped into Kyles arms.

"Are you okay!" He asked, holding me up and looking at my face.

"I'm fine," I whispered, closing my eyes. I felt him pull me close to him, so I was snuggled into his chest.

And I sobbed.

I had no idea how long I'd been crying for, but when I finally dried my last tear and looked at kyle, he was looking towards the trees.

"They went as soon as they handed you back." He said, looking back at me.

"I'm so sorry, you should have just let them shoot me. Now what are you gonna do? You don't even have a ruck sack,"

"What! I'd never let them shoot you!" He gasped, clearly shocked, "It was only a rucksack. Your way more precious."

I smiled half heartedly, still shaken.

"You don't even know my name," I whispered, "How can you say I'm precious?"

"Hmm, I don't, do I? But you are..." He muttered, his face getting closer to mine. "I can tell your precious. And beautiful."

"Wanderer." I moved my face closer to his, looking straight into his eyes.

"Huh?" He asked, looking at my lips.

"My name. Wanderer."

And then we were kissing, our lips touching tenderly at first, getting to know how each other felt. His tounge gently teased my lower lip, before slipping into my mouth. Mine met his, and we deepened the kiss, not coming up for air for at least 2 minutes. I felt so happy, a sense of elation I'd never felt before. I hadn't even realised I'd felt anything for him, well, until now.

He leant his forehead against mine, and breathed deeply.

"That was amazing..." He gently kissed me again, nibbling at my lower lip this time, making me moan with pleasure.

I pulled away as I felt something around us change, and sure enough, Sunny and Ian were standing by the tree, smiling at me and Kyle.

"Oh crap," Kyle sighed, looking their way.

Way to kill the romance.
