Claire Bennet and Peter Petrelli

1:15 pm

Hallway

Claire didn't look back at Josh. For a moment nothing else mattered but Peter. She dropped to the ground next to him. The bullet was lodged in the side of his head. She new what the meant. For a second Claire felt so angry and scared at the same time it overwhelmed her. "Peter" she managed to say. She felt tears on her face, when did she start crying? How could she have let this happen. Why did this eve have to happen. He hadn't done anything wrong. Josh didn't even know him. But then again Josh didn't know many people in the school either. "Please don't be dead" she whispered. What was the point?

But suddenly somthing started happening, somthing she could absolutely not believe. The bullet actually fell to the floor. It clinked against the ground and Peter started coughing seconds later. How did he heal himself? Claire didn't understand it. But why was she going to worry about that that? He was ok, right? Peter sat up and took several deep breaths. Claire didn't actually relize it but she hugged him. Peter sat there for only a moment before hugging her back. "Peter how..."

How had he done that? Claire had seen him heal before but she thought since he was shot in the head, he would die for sure. She started to think that if he was shot closer to the back of his head, he wouldn't have come back to life. Was that it then? She could not let that happen ever again, the was for sure. For one moment Claire really believed she lost the person she cared about the most.

"Are you alright?" he asked quietly. Claire only nodded and looked around. Why did Josh run away so fast? Why didn't he just shoot Claire too? She didn't understand what he was doing. Peter looked around the hallway. Once again it was just the two of them. "Where'd he go?" Peter asked, glancing at Claire. She shrugged "I really don't know, he just left." She got off the ground and helped Peter up. "Who is he?" Peter asked her, looking a little confused. "Just some kid, his name's Josh."

"Are you ok?" she asked him, she looked around afraid Josh might return. But there was no sign of him, or anybody else for that matter. Claire grabbed Peters hand. "Come on" she said, deciding it was defidently safer upstairs. The two of them went up the staircase together. Claire took Peter back to the classroom where Zach and Lyle were. she stopped outside of the door first. There was somthing she had to tell Peter, because she was afraid if she didn't say it now he would never know.

"Peter I love you" Claire told him, still holding onto his hand. And she really meant it. From the moment they met Claire had really liked him. "I know, I love you too" he awnsered. Claire smiled at him a little before walking into the classroom. Claire thought they would finally be safe from any danger.

She was wrong.

Both Lyle and Zach were gone, the room was empty.
