Chris,"We'll use whatever they have to get out and leave them alone. Just once, we'll ignore them."
Nero,"We have to go back there."
I nod,"Only to get a way out of here."
Nero,"but...but what if they get us! They have security everywhere, we won't be able to get through there!"
"You made it out didn't you? As long as your with us, nothing's going to happen to you."
He nods and takes the water that Sherry has started to pass out to everyone. This basically ends the conversation for the night, aside from who will get the bed and who get's first shift. Chris takes first shift and we all make Ada take the bed. I stay upstairs with her, taking the floor next to her. Nero gets the couch. I don't fall asleep right away. The thought of having to go through this again, and what I went through before gets to me. I remember having to deal with Ashley constantly, and running into Ada periodically. Luis trying to help Ashley and I even though we bearly knew each other at the time. Nero reminds me of him, the hair I guess.
Ada,"You can't sleep either?"
I look to see her staring at me,"No. What's on your mind?"
She laughs,"The question is, what isn't?"
I smile,"The last time we we're here, you we're "helping" me."
She frowns,"I did want to see you safe and off of the island. If you helped me along the way, then I was just killing two birds with one stone, right?"
I laugh,"Yeah, that's one way of putting it."
Ada,"Try getting to bed, alright? The kid is going to be stuck to you tomorrow."
"What?"
She sighs,"Your lucky you got him to stay on the couch without you near him. You were the one who saved him. He was near you all night. He feels safe with you... You think that's going to change tomorrow?"
