The harsh cold air stinging his lungs as he yelled again. His voice laced with emotion and desperation. "Amy!" He felt like he was dreaming. A nightmare he wanted to wake up from. Just seconds ago Amy had been standing in his arms. As his mind panicked and tried to figure out his reality Amy's red coat floated in the water. He stepped back into the water paddling at it reaching for her. "Amy!" She finally got close enough he could reach her jacket. He pulled her up onto land slightly relieved. However that relief was shortlived. Turning her over she was scary pale. "Amy!" Ty didn't have the strength to yell or shout anymore. Her name coming out in a whisper of hot tears as they rolled down his face. "Come on, Amy!" He said finding his voice and strength again. Kneeling up he started pushing up and down on her chest knowing she had taken in water. Unprepared for the sudden dip in the lake. "Please, Amy." Ty pressed harder as his emotions took over. He let out a sigh of relief when she suddenly coughed. "Amy, hey. It's okay. Slow breathes." He rubbed her back as she spit the remaining water out. He cradled her head lovingly. He looked around unsure of what to do next.

Amy heard the boards snap under her feet but there wasn't anything she could do. She saw the ice and then water. The cold soaking into her clothes within seconds. She didn't have time to react. Her limbs freezing up and she was to cold to move or fight. The dark soon gave way to Ty's sweet but panicked face. Her mind blank as she layed their shivering. "Ty." She whispered getting his attention. He was still looking around frantically. His wild eyes met hers. "Ty." She said again.
"It's okay."
"Cold." She managed to say before sitting up slightly.
"Do you think you can walk? We'll go back to the truck. We gotta get out of these wet clothes." Amy nodded. "Okay, I'm gonna need you to walk." He helped her get up. He practically dragged her back toward the truck parked just off the gravel. He reached the door handle and tried pulling on it but it wouldn't open. He left Amy leaning against the truck to try his door but it didn't open either. Only now realizing he locked the door. Reaching in his pocket his keys were gone. He cursed under his breath.
"Ty, what's taking so long?"
"I think I lost my keys when I fell in." He said running back around to her side of the truck. "Do you have your cell phone?"
"No. I left it at home." She said upset with herself.
"It's okay, Amy." He said pulling her into a hug. "You scared the crap out of me." Ty was now shaking.
"I'm okay. Just cold." She said a half smile on her face.
Ty smiled at her thankful she was okay. He looked around and noticed a small unmaintained trail. "Look, I bet that leads to something. Maybe a cottage or house." He said putting his arm around Amy. "Come on." The two abandoned the truck and headed down the trail. Hoping it lead to somewhere usual. Far too long later they finally got to a small cabin in the middle of nowhere. Ty didn't like it one bit but they had no choice. Amy was hardly walking on her own anymore and her shivering got worse.
"Ty." Amy whispered.
"I know, I know. We're almost there." He looked around seeing no life. Judging by the appearance it was a summer fishing cabin. The trail looked like it hadn't been used in awhile. And the state of the small porch, if you could it that wasn't in much better shape. "Do you have a bobby pin?" He asked.
"Yeah. Why?" She asked as he handed him one.
"Cause it looks like nobody's home." It only took Amy a few minutes to realize what he meant. It was slightly scary how fast he picked the lock. He handed the hair clip back to her. She was shocked. "We had no choice." He said grabbing Amy's hand to help her inside.
"There's not much here." She said observing the same table, one bed, a small book shelve and a wood stove.
"It's more then enough." He said going over to the wall where some clothes were hanging. "Must have forgot to take them." He smiled grabbing the clothes and tossing them at Amy. "Get changed and I'll go for some fire wood."
"Please be careful." She said shooting him a half smile.

When Ty got back Amy was dressed in the man's hunting clothes going through the cupboard. "Found some food."
"We won't be here that long." He said laying the wood next to the stove. "You should be resting. Or you forget you took a swim in minus temperatures?"
Amy smiled. "Maybe."
Ty kissed her lips softly as if they'd crack if he did it any harder. He felt just how cold her skin still was. "I'm gonna get us warmed up then hopefully see if I can't get my phone out of the truck."
"You need to get out of your wet clothes." Amy ordered.
"I only went in waist deep."
"Ty..."
"Amy... we need to call Jack let him know where we are and that we are okay."
"Okay." She frowned. "Don't be too long."
"I'll be right back." He kissed her again before tending to the fireplace.

He tightened the grip on his jacket as he made his way back to the truck almost a mile from the cabin and another few miles from the main highway. The wind nipping at his exposed skin. He didn't remember it being this cold before. He didn't want to break a window to get his phone but even if he wanted it there was around to break it. He sighed as he tried to jimmy the lock but it wouldn't open. He leaned his head against the truck feeling overwhelmed and scared for the first time since he was kid. Looking around he realized there was no getting help and no escaping. He had no idea what time it even was but their only hope now was hoping the hunter came back to his cabin soon or someone else saw their truck come morning.
"What took so long?" Amy jumped to greet him. "Did you get help?"
"No. I can't get the lock to open. Think it's frozen. I think we're gonna have to wait until morning."
Amy's face turned to panic. "We can't stay here."
"We have no choice. We have no way of getting home or calling for help." He said sitting next to Amy on the bed pulling her closer to him. She was shaking against him. "We'll have enough firewood to keep burning until morning. I'll trying hiking back to the main road for help."

Jack paced by the window for the tenth time. Lisa looked on. Jack turned toward the window again as he heard the door. It was Tim. He sighed. "Where are they? They should have been back long ago."
"Their not back yet?" Tim said catching their conversation.
"An hour or so." Lisa said worries herself. She reached out to hug Jack.
"I'm calling Amy." Tim said pulling out his phone.
"We've tried. Amy left her phone and Ty's goes straight to voicemail."
"They should be in range by now."
"Unless they stayed longer?" Lisa said gaining looks. "We know how they are."
"She would have called. She'd know we'd worry." Tim said pulling his phone out anyway.
"Hey, Ty. It's Tim. You two better be on your way home or I swear..." Jack snatched the phone.
"That's not gonna help things."
"I guess we just wait. They're probably just running late."
