Chapter Nine

Calleigh's Perspective

I woke up and damn was my ankle hurting. I look Next to me and Eric was sleeping peacefully. I see that the sun was coming up. I knew that we had to get going sooner or later, before we were found by the people who had taken us in the first place.

I start to shake Eric and whisper "Eric you gotta wake Up."

He is very difficult to wake up! Out of nowhere i shout "ERIC!" He jumped ten feet in the air! i laughed so hard, he is just something else.

"Seriously Cal?"

"Seriously"

Wow was it nice waking up to Eric, But i wish it was in different circumstances.

" Lets go Eric, we have to get out of this place because i really need a shower!"

" Now who is Miss Stinky!"

" HaHa very funny Mr. Stinky, now lets get going."

I try to stand but it hurt to much. "I think I sprained or possibly broken my ankle."

"Do you think you'll be able to walk?"

" I'm not sure, my biggest concern is getting down from this Cavern."

Eric stands up and walks over to a vine and tugs on it. " I Think this will hold us both."

" Both?" I question as he comes over and helps me up.

" Yes you are going to get on my back and we are going to slide down on that vine together."

" Are you serious?"

" Serious as a heart attack now up you go" He said as he lifted me onto his back and i squealed. He grabs the vine and I wrap my arms around his neck and my legs around his hips . Clinging to him for dear life. Finally we land on the ground.

" See that wasn't so bad." He says to me teasingly. I just roll my eyes at him and grin. I get off his back and it hurts to stand.

Eric sees that and says "Here lean on me." I wrap my arm around his neck and we start walking, well i start limping. Then out of know where something jumps out of the bush. Eric looked terrified. I wasn't sure if it was what I thought it was at first but sure enough . It was A Skunk. Of all things a skunk. We stand still then The black and white animal started to lift his tail. Out of nowhere Eric Picked me up and ran for He was sure we were far enough away from the skunk he put me down and I had burst out laughing.

"What i so Funny Cal?" He questioned.

"you should have seen your face!"

"WHAT? I wasn't going to get in a tub of that dreaded red juice again!"

"Okay , Lets go we have a long walk ahead of us."

I wrap my arm around his neck and we continue walking . We walked miles and miles, we chatted and laughed just trying to forget our hunger and thirst and the want to be home.

All of a sudden I something in a distance It was a road. Eric must have seen it two because we both went as fast as we could to the road. A road means people. People means Help! We make it towards the road.

"so What do we do now?" I ask

"We just walk."

"When We get home I just want to go home eat some pepperoni pizza, light some candles and have a nice bubble bath." I say

"I would go over by my Mothers house and eat one of her homemade meals , she makes the best food I have ever eaten. Then play with my nieces and nephews."

" I wish I had a family like that."

" You have me. Maybe you could come with me one time and meet my nieces and nephews."

"Ya that would be nice." I say as I shoot him a smile.

Then I heard a sound But not just any sound, the sound of a vehicle. We both turn around and we run into the middle of the road to flag down the vehicle. I thought we were saved but then They got out of the vehicle. They had guns, two were the ones that had taken us and the other guy was new. He seemed like he was in charge.

One of the guys that had taken us had said " see I told you we would find them Henry"

"Oh shut up and get them you idiots!"

The right behind them I see a car pull up. H , Nat and Ryan and Tripp all step out.

H says " get away from them"

The two men and Henry Started to come even closer to us with their guns aimed and ready to shoot but H , tripp and Ryan got them first. All three of them were dead. We could go back home . Huggs went all around while we waited for The ambulance to come.

" Thankyou Guys, for saving us." I said

" Yes Thank you " Eric also said.

" Now problem I am just glad you guys are okay besides the ankle."

"Ya me to Nat me too."

Once the ambulance came Eric and I were sitting in the back and what he said next shocked me.

"Cal I really thought we were gonna die and that means i wouldn't of been able to die without telling you something important."

"What?" I asked but I had a strange feeling I knew what he was going to say.

" Cal I almost lost you and I can not lose you because I love you , I love everything about your from your deep blue eyes to your smile to your flaws , I love you Calleigh."

That is when his lips were against mine. That is when I felt like i was at home.

" I love you too" I Whispered before we began kissing again. I finally got what I wanted.
