I then started to help her, finally she had packed
'bye Ruth see you at school tomorrow'
'bye, do you want me to walk you home,' she shook her head 'or... at least to the door?'
she smiled
'no it's okay, I'll see you tomorrow'
'bye' I said while I was waving
'RUTH WHAT'S HAPPENED TO THIS ROOM...?' mum shouted
oh shoot the room 'NOTHING MUM, I'LL CLEAN IT UP' I shouted back, with that I went to the guest room and started cleaning up feathers. The next day came really quickly, I was half dreading it though because I was so mad at Carter. I had a plan though, I was going to take my anger out on him
'Ruth are you going to get some breakfast before you go?'
I gave that some thought, was I hungry or not? 'no thanks mum I'm not hungry, see ya' to my luck when I had got to school I saw Carter, I then ran up to him 'CARTER'
he looked at me
'huh?'
'YEAH YOU HEARD ME, WHAT DID YOU THINK YOU WERE DOING UPSETTING MY SISTER LIKE THAT!' I screamed
'she dumped me'
'YEAH BUT FOR A GOOD REASON, YOU CHEATED ON HER'
'SHE HAD IT COMING'
I was so angry at him, I darted for him knocking him over 'YEAH WELL YOU MADE HER COME HOME FOR WEEKS CRYING, YOU MADE HER RUN TO HER DEATH! SHE WAS HAPPY BEFORE YOU BROKE HER HEART' I shouted
he hesitated
'OH YEAH THAT'S NOT WHAT SHE TOLD ME'
oh now I was annoyed 'WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW'
'YOU KEPT STUFF FROM HER, THIS ANNOYED HER'
I got so annoyed that I hit him hard but he hit m harder back, I screamed and started kicking him. Our fight didn't go unnoticed, as soon as I had hit him everyone gathered around us shouting 'FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT' immediately Lilly ran up to us with our head teacher, Lilly pulled me apart and our head teacher pulled Carter away
'alright whats going on here?'
'their arguing about Lisa'
even if we were now apart I was still in an argumentative mood 'HE MADE MY SISTER RUN TO HER DEATH' I shouted
'SHE HAD IT COMING, ANNABEL WAS AND STILL IS A PRETTIER GIRL THEN LISA.' he shouted back
oh now I was really annoyed 'TAKE THAT BACK' I screamed
'MAKE ME'
this really annoyed me, I struggled in Lisa's hold and got free. I then plunged at Carter
'right that's it I've heard enough! You two will face a detention but a special one'
for some reason my face lit up to what our head teacher said
'not one to smile to Ruth, this one will help you get a long with Carter'
WHAT! 'WHAT! I'D RATHER DIE THEN GET ALONG WITH CARTER, HE MADE MY SISTER LISA RUN TO HER DEATH' I screamed
he ignored me
'you two will be locked in a room until you get along, are we clear?'
me and Carter sighed 'ye....s' we moaned
Lilly then held my arm again and followed our head teacher to a room, I looked at Lilly with a death look
'sorry Ruth, I warned you not to go for Carter but you did, so in a way it's your fault'
they then left the room and locked the door
'oh great' I said
'for once I actually agree with you on that one,' he looked at my slight smile and snapped back to the normal Carter that I knew 'LOOK YOU STAY ON THAT HALF AND I'LL STAY ON THE OTHER' he said harshly
so I sat on a chair and stared at the ceiling, I stared at the ceiling for an hour until I heard loud screaming 'what's that?' I panicked
Carter rolled his eyes
'oh chill it's probably nothing'
I wasn't convinced though so I went and peered through the window on the door, this showed me what was going on 'uh Carter it's not nothing, the schools on fire'
'I won't believe that until I see it'
'come here then'
he sighed and walked to the door where I was standing
'move a side' he said pushing me out of the way
'yep your right and its spreading fast' he panicked
'what do we do?' I asked
'we?'
I sighed, I didn't like it either 'do we want to get out of here or not'
he sighed
'good point, were going to die' he panicked
I felt the same 'oh calm down we won't die' I then tried pushing the window 'the window won't budge'
'were going to die!' he panicked
when I said nothing he knew that I felt the same
'Ruth I have something to tell you before we die'
'what?'
'I still love your sister'
that made me smile 'then why did you cheat on her with Annabel?'
he sighed 'we got into a fight, I thought she would do the same but it's obvious that she didn't'
I sighed 'what was the argument about?'
'my friends didn't like her and they didn't like that I was going out with her so I made them believe that we had split up'
'and they liked Annabel?'
he sighed
'yeah, things went wrong because they tried to convince me to go out with Anabel. When I was around with Ruth and my friends were around I acted weird, when she tried to talk to me I wouldn't. They then paired me and Annabel up and she flirted like mad and I had no choice but to do the same. Ruth realised and we had a big argument about it, I thought she had dumped me that time.'
this all made sense 'so you then asked Annabel out....'
'yes and Ruth saw us, this time she dumped me for real'
'Carter you do realize that because of that she ran away and died...'
'well when you told me yeah, I know something that you don't know though'
'whats that?'
'that wasn't the only reason, you were hiding something'
I sighed 'that was a year ago, she couldn't still be upset about that'
'she was, she told me that you had disappeared and that she had found you in America two years later, she asked you why and you didn't tell her. You lied and said you were on a secret mission but everyone knows that there are no secret missions in America'
I sighed ' how come she didn't tell me about this?'
'she knew you would never tell her the truth'
I sighed 'hold on I'm going to see how much time we've got before the fire reaches this room' so I then headed to the room and Carter followed, to my fear I saw the people that had probably started the fire 'Carter get down' I said as I was ducking
'why?'
'just do it!'
so he did
'why did we have to duck?'
'I have to tell you something only I know, when I was twelve I was kidnapped by a group of people, to my shock I found out that they were vampires-'
'but vampires don't exist'
'that's what I thought but when he showed me evidence that they were vampires everything got really real for me, I was kept there for a year until I was able to escape, they nearly killed me.'
he was shocked 'is that why you disappeared?'
I nodded
'where did you live before that?'
'Australia, they took me to America and I had no idea where I was. Still I ran and ran until I was able to hide, I hid there for a year. How I survived, I became a robber and I stole food and water to keep me alive, unfortunately when I was fourteen I was caught though where I was brought to prison. They couldn't keep me there though so they gave me to a family that was willing to look after me, that's where I found Lisa.'
he was speechless
'wow'
'yep, that's why I couldn't tell Lisa, she would freak out and she was my little sister so I hid it from her'
he was silent for a while
'wait what does this have to do with those men?'
'they're the people who kidnapped me, a few of them anyway. They started the fire in hope to find me, I've been running from them ever since I was able to escape'
'how did they find you?'
'I don't know someone must have told them, we've got to find a way to open that window so I can escape them again.'
'wait so you can run again?'
I nodded 'do you want to come?'
'what about our family?'
'I've been running which means I couldn't care less about them, mean I know but I can't risk them finding me again. Yours in the other hand might be worried but if they find out that you know they might take you'
he sighed 'so I guess I have to come with you then'
'yep, sorry Carter I shouldn't have brought you into this'
he sighed 'it's okay, I didn't really like them anyway and I bet I would've got in deep trouble because of the fight today anyway'
Carter was the last person that I expected to be running with but now I had no choice, I guess I was surprised that he would believe me as well 'so um...how are we going to get out?'
'we could easily just smash the glass'
'yeah...slight problem with that, we'll cut our self and they will hear us' I said
he sighed
'how else are we going to escape?'
he had a point 'good point, smashing the glass it is'
he smiled
'we have to find something hard that will smash the window'
so I went searching for something hard until I ran across a weird metal bar 'how about this'
he just stared at me, I sighed
'we'll how else, it's heavy, hard and metal'
he rolled his eyes
'lets try it then'
so we did and we successfully broke the glass 'Carter wait, we need to smash the whole window'
he sighed and started smashing more
'HAY GUYS SHE'S IN HERE GET HER!' they shouted
'Carter hurry we don't have long!'
they were banging and banging on the door
'Ruth I'll get out first then I'll help you'
'okay but hurry' I screamed
'RUTH HURRY'
I panicked and tried to jump on the table to get out but I failed 'CARTER I CAN'T' I then realized that I had a skirt on 'OH GREAT CARTER IT'S MY SKIRT!'
'TRY!'
so I did and I successfully managed to get on the table but they had managed to get in
'GRAB HER!'
'CARTER HELP!' I screamed
by the time that I had said that they had my leg 'CARTER THEY HAVE MY LEG HURRY!'
I was half way out
'HANG ON!'
he climbed back in
'HAY FREAKS LET HER GO!' as he said that he took the pole and started hitting them but it had no affect on them
'RUTH GET OUT I'LL JOIN YOU IN A MINUTE!'
'GET THE BOY!'
I panicked 'NO I CAN'T JUST LEAVE YOU!'
'GET OUT!' he screamed
so I did but he didn't follow, I knew that they had got him and I cried, I had to run though so I did. He had saved my life and I couldn't just leave him so I ran back in and started searching for him
'CARTER WHERE ARE YOU!' I screamed, the fire was everywhere 'CARTER!' I searched forever 'CARTER!' I screamed and started crying, wow I never thought that I would cry over Carter 'CARTER IF YOU CAN HEAR ME CALL MY NAME!'
'Ruth'
'Carter is that you?'
'Ruth I thought I told you to run'
where was Carter 'Carter where are you?'
'ahead of you, about five steps, there's smoke everywhere'
so I headed in the smoke and found Carter
