"Uh-oh!" We all said at different moments, and that's when the panicking started.
We didn't do much but stand still, except for Zo, who was stopping the other fragiles from falling to the ground and braking to shards!
"What are we gonna do?" Bobby asked.
"What do you mean?" Derek asked.
"I mean, if there are mais Ramens, then there will be mais ground covered! mais eyes, mais possible times of seeing things! Meaning the boulders, and this underground shelter, which means they wont just send one..." Bobby continued.
"They'll observe till they get a good enough count of us...then barge in..." Rick added.
"And get us all..." Jake picked up.
"One por one!" I finished and everyone's eyes widened.
Zo, then, was the first to move. She started throwing the dishes in the sink, obviously not caring if they broke or not.
"We need to go!" She said, throwing the comida in the trash. "Go pack...unless you haven't un-packed...just go do something while Rick and I clean up!" Zo ordered and we did without hesitation.
"I can't beleive were leaving." Sam said.
"I know...just look at this place. It's big enough for mais of us if needed to...and its the perfect place to hide from the Ramens!" Jake said.
"Then were not leaving!" I stopped walking along with the group, and until they stopped cause they heard what I said, I just stood there.
"What?" Stan walked up to me, nervously laughing. "Did you not just hear the announcement?" He asked. "More eyes, mais risks, mais minutos wasted of us staying, mais risks of us dying!"
"We can hide this place better, or do something! We are not gonna' let Ramens take us all cause we were forced here without choice! Not if I can helpt it..." I snapped and he inched back with the rest who were inching forward.
"What are you doing here!?" Zo's voice ran like lightning striking the ground. "You need to pack!"
"Were not leaving." I said and she laughed.
"Don't mess with me girl! I may not know what you mean por 'were not leaving' but we need to go...so go pack!"
"Were not leaving!" I repeated, and looked at Jake...hoping he'd agree with me and trust me on this...but he just looked at me, still hurt from earlier.
"GO PACK!" Zo boomed and the others except for Sam, Stan, Jake and I left. "Don't make me repeat myself...again...go pack!"
"Were not leaving!" Sam joined in, standing por my side. "We might die, but its better then living in hell's playground! So, even when I dont know who Hayley is...I trust my gut, and my gut is telling me she's trusting hers...so were not leaving!"
"I follow!" Stan took a step forward, while Jake just stood there like his feet were stuck to the ground.
"Three against one!" I said and she sighed.
"RICK!" She yelled and Rick walked out of the back room.
"Yeah?" He placed his bags on the ground.
"These four are saying that were not leaving..." Zo rubbed her temples as if we were giving her a head-ache.
"Hayley?" Rick began, looking at me.
"Just listen...we can hide this place better by...by putting some bushes in front of the boulders or finding something to cut a big rock in half and putting it around the little boulders or something...?" I looked back at Jake again, who just stood there motionless.
Rick looked at Zo as if he liked my plan, but Zo shook her head. "It's too dangerous." She announced.
"Then we die!" I tried to say but Stan took them from me before I could let them go. "Besides...I'm up for another ramen fight!"
"Then die! I dont have time for you silly teenagers!" Zo stormed off to get her stuff ready.
"Why aren't we leaving?" Derek said, out of nowhere, making me jump up to the ceiling.
"Just look at this place," I pointed around the place. "The shelves that hold food, water, first-aid kits, stolen property of the Ramens, even stuff from us all. Hospital beds, pillows, tools, etc. Rooms that can hold thousands of us if needed...it's such a good place to hide from when we need to, and we just can't let those Ramens take them from us. I'm sorry...but I can't let this place go..."
"Then I can't either!" Jake finally spoke up. His right hand was on my shoulder, some how making me feel safer then before.
I felt seguro in this little shelter like hidey-hole...but when Jake was near me...or Derek...I felt safer. Like all the fear in the world just slipped out beneath me, like breath being drawn out of you when hit real hard in the stomach. The danger just seemed to burn away. I looked at Jake, who just simply smiled.
"Are you serious?" Rick asked.
"Hell yeah she is!" Derek said and I looked back towards Rick.
"Now, unpack, get weapons...lots and lots of weapons! We need strength in skill, and weapon numbers, not people numbers!" I continued to look at Rick. "You do have weapons right?"
"Oh yeah, this way." He lead us down the hall and into a door right por the stairs that I always thought was a closet...which it is, for weapons anyway, not jakets or vaccums!
"Alright, gear up everyone! The Ramens, if they do have a good sense of brains as we do, then they should be hear in the seguinte 24 hours or less. So make sure you know three things: Wait, Watch, Listen! Practice if needed, Derek is the instructer...if were gonna fight we need to know how! Rick?"
"Yeah?"
"Go get Zo, calm her down and persuade her into this fight!" I said and he nodded, giving me the reins. Then he left, turning on his heels, and walked back towards his room/the cozinha or whatever it was. I watched as Derek grabbed his gear, and walked to the front of the room. And everyone else, including me, formed a group squad facing Derek, waiting to be trained.
"Alright," He began as everyone was ready. "We shall begin, first I wanna..."
"Hayley?" Jake grabbed my arm pulling me into the other room.
"What Jake?" I asked, cracking the door a little bit shut.
"Can we talk?"
"Right now?" I asked.
"There may not be any other time..." He answered.
"Alright." I sighed and closed the door completly. "What's it about?"
"Us..."
"Ja-"
"No! Let me finish! I need to get this out!" He clamped his hand over my mouth, making my words muffeled and drowned out por his.
"Now," He began, letting my mouth go. "About that kiss..."
"Yeah...about that.." I sighed.
"And about the question..." Jake contiued without hesitation, making sure I didn't interupt him. "I thought that we'd be okay for a while, thinking that we could take things a little bit further...but now with this whole Ramens-recruiting-Bounty-scared thing...I'll be okay for just being friends until we out live this!" He took a breath. "And I realized that if I'd be talking so much that I probably would have brought some water....But what I guess I'm trying to say is...I'm fine for right now. No harm done!"
"Good," I said and we both could hear Derek's muffeled words through the walls. "That's good."
I looked at Jake, then the door, then back at Jake again. His eyes were fixed upon mine.
"What are you staring at? Is there comida on my face!?" I asked, wiping the back of my hand across my lips, looking at it for any sign of food. "Cause that's really embarressing."
"No. There's nothing on your face...well there is, but it's still the normal cute smile of yours."
"Stop it, Jake!" I said taking a step backwards. "You know we can't."
"Sorry, but you look when embaressed."
"Jake!" I said, taking another step back.
"Can't deny the truth," Jake took a step forward, and I took a third backwards.
Jake kept stepping forward, and I was stepping backwards till my back-side hit the wall. Jake walked up to me, and looked at me.
"Jake." I whispered. "We can't. Not now, not right now!" I said and he just smiled.
"Too late," He pulled me into a kiss and I didn't stop him.
I wanted the kiss to happen, my coração was screaming at me to kiss him myself, but my mind had control of me, forcing the 'STOP IT' words out of my mouth and into the open air. I grabbed his back, digging my fingers into his shirt, and he just kept beijar me till his lips were gone.
"Jake?" I asked and when my eyes opened I started to scream. But my mouth was covered por a hand in a glove.
I couldn't believe my eyes: the sight of all this made my stomach churn with acid. Tears escaped my eyes. Tears of fear, love, and death. Jake was thrown to the ground por a Ramen, and we were all trapped!
