Undercover

"I have an idea, get in," Rian said.

We quickly scurried into his house, him quickly closing the door behind us. He put his head in his hand as he opened a closet door which held stairs, leading to his basement. He motioned for us to follow him down there. He turned on the light and it was a decent room, it held a couch and a rug covering the hardwood floor. A TV was in the corner with an Xbox hooked into it.

"This is the best I have for now. I can keep you here for a few days but that's it. Four days max. If they find you I swear to you I never told them. Just, be quiet down here," he said before climbing back up the stairs.

I grabbed Jack's hand and pulled him to the couch. Sitting on something that wasn't concrete sounded appealing to me and I could only assume it sounded pretty good to him as well. His face was completely unreadable, something was on his mind and I was determined to get to the bottom of it.

"Babe," I said, resting my head in his lap, "what's going on in that pretty head of yours?"

"My sister's birthday is tomorrow and I don't get to see her. I don't get to tell her happy birthday. I don't get to see her ever again do I," he said softly.

"I'm so sorry Jack."

"It's fine. Sorry doesn't really fix it."

"I should've explained it all better. I shouldn't have just left you in the dark and nothing can ever make up for that and it's all my fault and I'm so sorry Jay. I should've been a better friend. I shouldn't have forced you to come with me."

"Stop blaming yourself! I'm an adult. I made a decision and now I have to live with the consequences. I'm an adult, don't treat me like a child. It'll be fine, I promise."

He looked down at my face, his eyes locking onto me. He leaned down, capturing my lips with his. His hand carefully tangled in my hair, pulling me closer to him. I couldn't help but cup his jaw softly. He pulled away from me gently, I scrambled to sit up beside him. I connected our lips once again as Jack snaked his hands behind my neck.

I don't know how long we were sitting there, making out. I didn't care if they came in right now to dispose of us because at least I would be in the arms of the most important person in the world. The door upstairs opened and closed but honestly I didn't care. I was currently in Jack's lap, his hands carefully on my hips. A cough made us jump apart carefully.

"Here's your food," Rian whispered softly.

"I'm sorry," I whispered.

"I don't care."

Jack pecked my lips again as if to tell Rian that he didn't stand a chance at all. He picked up the food as Rian ascended the stairs softly. I felt bad because of how Rian felt but there was nothing I could do about it. I picked up one of the subs and munched on it while Jack was shoving his face full of food. I couldn't help but look down at my hands. While he was concerned about today I was worried about the future. How were we going to escape? How were we going to be safe? Would we even be safe once again?

"Babe, just eat," Jack said.

"I am, there's just a lot on my mind," I muttered.

Notes

Sorry I've not been updating this story, I've just not had a ton of ideas. Have a cutesy little filler chapter to make up for it. I'm going home this weekend and I'm really excited about that. I also am bringing my roommate with me so it's going to be a lot of fun.

I've been really stressed and have a lot of family stuff going on so that's why I've been really absent lately, sorry about that.
