Chapter 41

A Chapter by Dr.Who.LOVER

Chapter 41 of "Forbidden Love."

“Really?!” I sat up and looked around, my eyes finally adjusting to the dark. We were on a dirt path right on the edge of Colorado woods.

“Well we’re as close as we can get by car. The rest it up to you,” said Quil puling his suitcase out.

“Right, I can take it from here.” I grabbed my duffle bag and started walking. We walked along the dirt path but strayed off deeper into the woods. I had been up here only 2 since it had been built for me but I had memorized how to get up there. But we were moving too slow and it would be morning by the time we would even reach the cabin. If that happened I would have no protection from the sun.

“Quil we have to hurry!” I said turning to him, “at this rate we’ll never make it there by morning!”

“Go on ahead, I’ll catch up,” he said.

“You sure?”

“Yeah, I’ll follow your scent go now!” I nodded and maneuvered through the woods in a matter of seconds. I made sure to rub against trees to make it easier on Quil.

The cabin hadn’t changed one bit. It sad in the middle of dozens of trees. And if you walked down back there was a beautiful stream. The cabin was small and had a little front porch with two steel chairs. But it was well hidden and thank GOD it had a generator for power.

I ran up the cabin steps and pushed the door open. Everything was covered in dust, all the counters, the wooden table in the corner of the room with 2 chairs on each side, the min camping stove and the (empty) mini fridge.

I flipped the light switch on near the door and it took a moment but the light hanging over the table flickered to life illuminating the room. I breathed a sigh of relief, thank god the generator still worked! I went into the back room that acted as a bedroom. Two twin beds sat side by side. Not much but it’d have to do. I went over to the built in closet and grabbed two sleeping bags and two pillows. I set up the beds as quickly as possible and threw my bag down. I was about to collapse on the bed but I heard the door open. Immediately I pulled out my gun from my boot and aimed it at the entrance. I reached out my mind to Quil’s just to make sure it was him.

Quil?

“Yeah it’s me don’t shoot!” I relaxed and put my gun away as he came into the room.

“I’m glad you made it okay.” I said walking up to him.

“Yeah I did.” He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me close. We were both so mentally exhausted. We pushed the beds close next to each other, got changed and collapsed on both of them together. Quil fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow. I closed my eyes and slipped away easily knowing we were finally safe.
