Sophie finally made it out of the building and began walking towards a street corner so she’d be able to figure out where she was. “Bluebell, it’s nothing like that,” she sighed. “I am headed home now, though. I’m…” she’d finally gotten to the sign at the corner and she quickly calculated how far she’d have until she got home, “About 15 minutes away?” she frowned. She had been hoping this place was further away so she didn’t have to worry about randomly running into any of these people in the future.

Mav shook his head, not knowing how much longer it would be until he was given freedom. “Could be a week, could be a month.” he sighed. “I really hate this.”

Mack heard what Sophie said and she ran a hand through her hair. "Please just hurry home okay? I need to talk to you about something that I found out..." Mack said to her girlfriend. She didn't know how to even tell her about what she found out because she wasn't sure how Sophie would take it.
~~~
Dani heard what he said. She moved so she was straddling his waist and she let her arms go around his neck. "I hate this... I miss seeing you at the shelter and I miss talking to you," Dani whispered softly.

Sophie frowned at Mackenzie’s words. They certainly didn’t sound good. “What’s going on?” she asked, “Is everything alright?” She wasn’t sure what Mackenzie has found out, but if it involved her there were several things that could go badly very quickly.
~~~
“Me too,” he whispered, brushing a strand of her hair back as she sat over him. Then something occurred to him. “So, um… What Valerie said. About me being your boyfriend,” he began, “Do you want me to be?”

Mack heard Sophie. She bit her lip. ”My mom got released from jail…” Mack said quietly. ”I don’t know why or how but she’s out…”
~~~
Dani heard what he asked. Did she want him to be? Yes absolutely. But she was terrified of screwing everything up. ”I do… if you do. I just don’t want to mess anything up…” Dani said softly.

Sophie’s frown deepened. Suddenly her heartbeat was picking up and she felt light headed. “Um… Has she tried to contact you?” she asked, leaning against the wall of a nearby building to maintain her balance. She tried to keep her voice even, but it still sounded a bit soft to her own ears.
~~~
“Dani, you’re perfect. You couldn’t mess anything up.” he whispered as he gazed up at her.

Mack heard what she asked. ”Shes called my cell a few times but I haven’t picked up,” Mack said softly. ”She doesn’t know where we live so I know she won’t find me. Soph… do you need me to come get you?”
~~~
Dani heard what Mav said and she blushed. ”Im not perfect. I have my own demons to deal with…” Dani whispered softly.

"I'm fine, I just didn't get a chance to grab dinner last night. Or breakfast this morning, I guess," she smirked. She knew that wasn't good, but she didn't want to mention that she'd lost a ton of blood. That didn't seem like a phone conversation. "I'm going to drop by a store and grab something to eat in a moment here."
~~~
Mav chuckled. "No one doesn't," he replied, "But I like you. Whatever your demons may be, they're a part of you."

Mack heard a Sophie and she frowned. ”You better not be lying to me baby…” Mack muttered. ”Just please hurry home. I miss you.”
~~~
Dani heard what Mav said abs she smiled. ”Well I like you too…” Dani said softly. ”And maybe when your grounding is over, you and I can take a road trip to my hometown and I can get some of my stuff…”

"I'll be back soon. Talk to you then?" Sophie asked. She was going to have to hang up if she went into the store. She figured she should also get a jacket to wear to enter the apartment without her injuring being immediately obvious.
~~~
Mav smiled at Dani's word, then frowned at her suggestion. "Are you sure you want to do that?" he asked, "I mean I'd be glad to go with you, but I don't want you doing anything you're not ready for."

Mack heard what she said and she gripped the phone. ”Yeah sure…” She said. She didn’t trust that Sophie would either call her back or come home soon. She really needed her girlfriend and she needed her now. She glanced out the window and could have sworn that she saw someone watching the place. ”Your dad wouldn’t have anyone watching our apartment would he?” Mack asked.

Dani heard what he asked. ”Its been two years since I’ve been home… I’ll be okay. I really want my Journals and a few other things.” Dani said softly.

Sophie froze as she heard what Mackenzie said. "Is it a person or a car?" she asked carefully. She doubted her father would have anyone watching her apartment, but that didn't mean there weren't other people who wouldn't. She hoped it was someone that was after her and not someone Mackenzie's mom had hired. She ducked into a nearby shopping mall as she waited for an answer. She'd go in then get out quick so she could get home to Mackenzie.
~~~
Mav nodded. "Well then, of course I'll go with you," he replied, "And I'm really proud of you for being able to face whatever's waiting for you there. I know if I ran away I'd never be able to show my face here again."

Mack heard what she asked and she peered out the window. ”Theyre leaning on the car. It’s too dark for me to see who it is…” Mack said backing away from the window. ”the door is locked and dead bolted so no one can get in.”
~~~
Dani heard what he said and she blushed. ”Being with you is giving me the strength to go back. I want my stuff and enough is enough,” Dani said softly

Soph frowned. "Ok, stay away from any windows. If the blinds are open right now don't close them, that will look suspicious." she said. "Are Jesse and Archie in the apartment?" she added.
~~~
Mav nodded. "That's fair," he said. "You know, I'm considering getting my own place when I turn 18. You could... come stay with me."

Mack heard what she said. ”I ain’t going near any window,” Mack said to her. She heard her q question. ”They went out for the night. Something about camping under the stars or some bullshit.”
~~~
Dani heard what he said and her eyes widened. ”Really? I wouldn’t want to impose or make anyone angry,” Dani said. The last thing she wanted to do was anger his parents or his sister by moving in with him.

"Of course they did," Sophie muttered under her breath. She lifted the edge of one of the jackets on the wrack, but the material seemed too thin to cover the bandages well. "Ok, Bluebell, I'm going to hang up on you to call Jesse and make sure they're alright and on guard. Since we don't know who these people are after we have to make sure they're safe too. Unfortunately."
~~~
Mav shook his head. "You wouldn't be imposing on anyone. I don't want you to not have a place to stay and I've kind of been saving up to move out for a while now anyway."
