Chapter Five

Chapter Five

In the morning, Dustin pulled her out of bed and gave her a gray shirt, black jeans, and sneakers- the uniform of the gang that had first surrounded her. He was already dressed. She put her hair up and hid it in a black cap.
“We’ll sneak out by saying we’re going to patrol the houses,” Dustin explained.
Then he grabbed her hand and pulled her out into the hallway. She kept her head down to avoid being seen.
“I have food stored on one of the sailor’s old boats. We can take it to the mainland.”
Dustin stopped in the cavernous hall Amali had been in when she first arrived, to explain where they were going. Once, they had to beat up someone who thought he recognized Amali before he could sound the alarm. Then they ran before he could wake.
Dustin steered the boat while Amali marveled at how much her life had changed in just a few days. She stood up and gave him a squeeze, looking out over the water.

BryannaW: Yup. Exactly. I read your last review and I don't really like writing/reading romance either, but thats what made this a fairytale. And I know its short but it was supposed to be as they are hurrying, not a lot happens, and its the ending.
