*Chapter 3: Going back home*
When I opened my eyes, I couldn't remember exactly how many hours had passed. I still was in that boy's arms, and he looked at me.
"Oh, I didn't realize you were awake" he said "How do you feel now?"
"I'm feeling much better" I answered.
"That's good" he smiled, and the dog barked "What is it?" he asked.
I looked up and saw some lights appearing up the hill. The fog cleared and I realized there was a police patrol. My car was finally found, and the police was looking to rescue me.
He looked up too, and saw the patrol. Then, he stood up and helped me to stand up, but I cried because my legs were hurting a lot. So he walked with me to the road. When we arrived, he helped me to sit down.
"Thank you" I said, looking at him.
"You're welcome" he said slowly "See? They found you. You should go with them"
I agreed, but I was curious... how did he know where I was? I asked him, he just answered "He told me" looking at his dog. I barely believed that, but I didn't say anything. But he softly whispered into my ear "You'll be just fine", and gave me a hug, and said "They're coming"
I looked behind me, and a police officer came where I was.
"Miss Swinton? Are you okay?" the officer said. I nodded, and he continued "Your mother called us, and we've been looking for you. Come on, let's go" he said, and took me to the patrol. But I stopped.
"Can you wait a second?" I asked "I need to thank the guy who saved me. He's right there, at the road"
He looked around, and said "I don't see anybody...anybody but us"
"What?!" I asked surprised, and looked at the place where I left that guy. He wasn't there. He had gone! I looked at my watch: it was 5:30 a.m.
"Don't be surprised" the policeman said "This place is desert, no one lives here, and you can't find people, especially at night. You were really lucky"
I was so shocked that I couldn't say a word.
