I had waited and waited. It was the most boring week of my life. Glaine and scruff slowly became friends with me. It's just we don't have that much and common. And Zeke sometimes got on my nerves. Badly.
"I'm really scared that this isn't going to turn out well. What if we fail?" I panic, picking at my meatloaf.
"Don't jinx us, please." Says Glaine. She's kind of the rebel type. It must be why she wants to get out of here so much.
"Uhm guys... It's time..." Zeke whispers. My stomach does a huge flip, like a pancake or something. I'm just really nervous.
(Glaine's point of veiw)
"Okay. I'm ready." I say while getting up. "Come on, scruff. Let's do this." I say confidently. Scruff nods at me and also gets up, and so do Lenaia and Zeke. I hate that I have to go over to that stupid guard that always flirts with me. Thinks he's my boyfriend. But he's not! Some people don't listen.
We head across the cafeteria to the guards. At least Scruff is friends with the other guard. They like to talk. Too much. Scruff walks over to the guard and starts talking. I turn to the other guard.
"Hey." I say, while leaning against the wall, looking up at the guard. I hate this already.
"Ohhh... Hey babe!" He looks down and smiles at me, sliding an arm around me while I try not to barf on him.
"So... What have you been up to?" I ask, while fake smiling at him.
"Oh... I've been chillin', just making sure people don't escape." He pulls me even closer, so our chests are touching. I feel my face burning as he leans in. Our foreheads are touching. But out of the corner of my eye, I see Zeke and Lenaia, quietly walking out the open doors. I smile to myself. Now they just need to find their way out. This is too easy.
I pull away from him and say "Uhm... Well I just needed to go to the bathroom. So... Can I?"
He grins and says, "Anything for you, babe." I wrinkle my nose in disgust, while grabbing Scruff on the way.
"Hey! I had a pretty good conversation going!" Scruff says. I ignore him and run down the hall, quietly. In the distance, I see Lenaia and Zeke waiting by the bathroom doors.
(Lenaia's point of view)
I see Glaine and Scruff, well mostly Glaine, walking down the hall. Glaine is dragging him. I stifle a laugh.
"Come on. We need to get out of here. The alarms will be going off if we don't hurry." Zeke explains. He runs, so Glaine, Scruff and I run after him. He takes two lefts, two rights, one more left, and walks down a brown hallway, to the exit. There are two guards standing there. We hide behind the wall before going to fight.
"My friends should be here any second. We're going to need some help with these guys. They're the strongest." Glaine says, gesturing to the guards. I look to see Blue Eyes and Brute. I facepalm. It had to be them?
Two strong looking dudes pass us, waving at Glaine. Those must be her friends. They charge for Blue eyes and Brute. One of them aims a round house kick, that lands square in the chest of Brute. I hear an "Oof!" And he falls down, rubbing his chest. Blue eyes is getting punches in the face.
"Go!" One of the guys scream. Zeke nods and takes off running, with Glaine, Scruff and I close behind. Just as my feet are out the door, the blaring alarms go off in my ears. And we're off, running for our lives, just like my dream.
