A/N: hey guys!!! What's up! Happy late Valentines Day to all of my fans! I'd send you all roses but that would be pretty creepy of me. :) So this is an extra special chapter, it's dedicated to one of my amazing fans, hadiy101 we made a deal and my part of it was to write a 5-page chapter (mine are usually like 4pgs.) and dedicate it to her. So hadiy101 this ones for you!
Also, did any one see the music video for The Climb? I just watched it and, Wow it was amazing! It was so real and beautiful. If you haven't seen it then go right now and watch it! You wont regret it trust me!
Previously….
Soon they were out of bullets and I had a fully loaded gun, but I wanted this to be interesting so I grabbed the two of them and rendered them unconscious at my touch the brought them up and slammed both of there head together. It made a loud bang and then was gushing blood. I won.
Now all that was left was Jeff…
I could feel my blood pulsing threw my veins, and I could feel the burn from my legs, but I wasn't in any mood to stop. Each time the pain in my legs would escalate it was like raw encouragement making me push threw and keep going.
I killed people that day I was a monster. but those people, oh those people, I was nothing compared to them. If I was a monster they were demons sent from hell and Jeff was the devil himself.
I stayed in hiding looking for a signal, in a minute I could be on the floor dead surrounded in a pool of my own blood, but that didn't stop me, oh no it didn't. I refuse to let fear consume me and take control of my body, and mind. I was stronger then fear. I just pray that I'm stronger then Jeff.
I was getting impatient when my contacts started to flicker. The image was blurry, the screen was clouded with satellite fuzz but then it flickered again revealing agent Keller stilling at his desk.
"Liz…" the screen flickered cutting off his words, but then they continued again, "Jeff…." another flicker, "danger…." and again, "abort…. mission" then the screen went black. Agent Keller's voice was gone and his image along with it.
I was confused. I was scared. And I was unsure. The only thing I knew was that it didn't matter… It didn't matter about my fear, or my life, I was finishing this fight. If I came out alive then that's great, but I the ending wasn't as happy then, well I'm willing to take that risk.
I moved from the spot my feet were planted in. I did a full sweep of the school; I check every area, every spot, and every room. They were all dark and they all screamed in fear. They screamed at me, telling me to leave, but I had no time to listen to the silence and the way it always screamed the truth. I had to. I had to do this, right here, right now.
I crawled, ducked, rolled, and flipped around the school until I was sure it was safe enough. I made my way back to the locker. The locker that held two people in it. One whom I've come to like, like a brother and the other who stole my heart and made me fall in love. Yes that's right I admit it, I Elizabeth Elle Galloway, am in love with Nick Gray, and I might not ever live to tell him.
(A/N: I've decided to do something a little different and show you Nick's POV, just for this chapter.)
Nick's POV
Joe and I were in the small hidden room, he was sitting on one of the chairs while my feet took on a mind of their own and paced the floor. I thought that I would make a mark considering how many times I forced my feet to go back and forth. It was my nervous habit, I made my feet start but now they just moved on their own. Back and forth, back forth.
I was scared, you would be too if your in the same building as an escaped criminal that wants to kill you, and you have to be in a secret room waiting, while the girl that you have fallen for is out there risking her life just to keep you safe.
I felt like a sitting duck, a worried, afraid, defenseless, duck, and I hated it.
I was deep within my thoughts when Joe started to speak, "Nick, dude your going to make the floor mad at you." he tried to joke, but I wasn't in the mood for a joke.
"Floors don't have feelings and you'd be this way too if the girl you've fallen in love with was out there risking her life!" I snapped, I couldn't help it but I did.
"Whoa calm down and back up, you're in love with Miley?"
"Yes Joe, I really am. I don't know, she is just so different, she is beautiful and strong and could probably kill me if she wanted to, I think I'm falling for her, no wait I know I've already fallen" I said preaching straight from the heart.
"Nick I don't know, I've grown to like Miley like a sister but, it could be dangerous to fall for her, I mean you know nothing about this girl."
"Your wrong. I know that she is amazing, and that she puts walls up too keep out hurt. I know that when she bites her lip she's nervous, and I know she'd never admit to being nervous. But most of all I know that she has stolen my heart and there is no turning back. I'm in love with Miley Stewart," I declared to a shocked looking Joe.
"Wow you really mean that don't you?" Joe asked me just to clarify
"Yes Joe, I really do"
The room grew silent and I went back to my pacing while Joe sat there taking in all of what I just said. It was a nervous, afraid, scary silence, one that held all emotions in it like a quark bottle, it let nothing out, and it only seemed to let more emotions in.
The silence was shattered, broken and stomped on when I heard someone fiddling with the lock out side. My heart speed up and my palms got sweaty as I waited. I could do nothing else; I was a sitting duck that was about to be shot.
Miley's POV
My fingers were fighting with my head as I tried to spin the lock into the right numbers but it just wasn't working. I took a very small step back and a deep breath, and then I re-approached the taunting lock and planted my fingers belonging to my right hand onto the knob. 45, 23, 12, 09, to the right and 4, 67, 88, 9, to the left. I pushed the knob into the metal and to my surprise it opened.
I stepped into the hidden room and was instantly meet with the faces of two scared teenagers, one of those faces being Nick's. I looked for a minute, taking in every feature of his, his hair, his face, his eyes, all of it. If I died to day I wanted my last memory to be of him.
I snapped out of my daze and quickly spoke, "its not safe, you have to come with me, right now." I started walking to the locker door that lead back out in to the dangerous unsafe hall of the high school. Both boys followed me. "I'm relocating you, I lost all connection with HQ and I cant take any chances with your lives."
"But you're taking them with yours?" Nick asked knowingly
I just ignored him and took off my black converse shoe. I peeled off the bottom sol of the shoe to reveal thousands of wires and mini gadgets.
"Wow" Joe said referring to my high tech shoe
I sanded threw the whole shoe and found what I was looking for. A small tube of mascara.
"There is a dangerous killer out there coming after us, and your putting on makeup!" Joe said appalled
"Shh! Its not make up it's a three minute shield, I'm setting it so I can get you guys to safety" and with that I screwed off the cap and threw it out of the locker door. I saw a small flash of blue indicating that the shield was set.
I turned to the boys and said, "lets go now" I got out of the locker and quickly made my way to the empty classroom. Both boys were hot on my heels as I ran, I pushed open the door and went in, Nick and Joe immediately followed me and I shut the door.
I reached over to my left side and grabbed a heavy yardstick and shoved it into the handle of the door keeping it shut. I knew it wouldn't help but I needed to trick myself just this once so I could have a mind that was less polluted with worry.
After putting the yardstick in place I ran to the far side of the room and tore down the educational poster that covered a single spot on the wall and revealed a hand scanner.
I placed my two hands on the scanner, and watched the red light scan my fingerprints and DNA. My heartbeat increased and I bit my lip in nervousness. I was scared and I was nervous, but I knew I had to be strong for the two people standing at my sides.
The red line was gone and the scan was done, I removed my hands and watched as the wall slid to the side and opened up a room to us. I quickly gave the two boys directions, "you have to get it, walk all the way back and don't stop, and an HQ agent will be waiting for you on the other side. No mater what you do, you have to promise me you wont turn back." I said to them and they both didn't seem too happy about leaving me behind
Which Joe confirmed when he said, "NO Miley were not leaving you here, I can't do it and I know Nick can't either!"
"Joe you have to." I said sadly knowing that this might be the last time I ever see him.
"But-" Joe started
"No buts! You're going and that's final!!" I yelled, I didn't want to, oh gosh no I didn't want to but I had to, I knew that was the only way I'd ever get them to listen. So I did, I yelled.
Joe complied with my request and walked threw the door, before he took another step he turned to me said sadly said, "be careful and take care of your self kid."
I nodded and I saw a small tear escape from his eye as he started walking. Now it was just I and Nick left.
"Nick, you have to go, I'll be ok." I told him, my heart was breaking as each word escaped my lips. I didn't want this to be the last time I saw Nick but I knew it just might be.
"Miley, I want you to know…I love you"
"I love you too Nick" I said as he pulled me into a kiss that took my breath away and made me go weak at the knees.
I didn't want to but I heard footsteps coming closer so I ripped my lips from Nick's and quickly shoved him threw the door.
Nick heard the steps too and looked back at me and said, "I love you, and I really do Miley Stewart"
"I love you too, but you have to go. Run and don't stop ok. I'll be fine" I lied, the fakeness dripped from my teeth as I turned the other way. I couldn't bare the sight of watching Nick leave, so I didn't look.
No one's POV:
Little did Miley know that Nick refused to leave her so he shut the door almost all of the way but left it open just enough so that he could see what was happening to the love of his life.
