VELVET I was off the tree and away from danger but my heart was still beating extremely fast, maybe it was because I saw Brent disappearing into the woods and he wasn't back, not yet. Alan cupped my face. “I feel stupid for leaving you here." He said with a torn expression. “I chose to stay here." “What if Brent didn't come at the right time?." I pulled out my dagger from the side of my shorts. “I would have driven this into it's throat." I said with a smile. He chuckled and kissed the side of my lips. I turned to see Brent marching towards us. He scooped me up and carried me over his shoulder. “Seriously Brent?." Alan yelled but Brent didn't turn around. It wasn't until he started walking that I realized that we were really deep into the forest, we had wandered very far off. H
