CHAPTER 16:
"Allison, Allison! Calm down!" Kris said, gripping Allison's shoulders and shaking her lightly. "What do you mean? What's wrong?!"
Allison hugged Kris tightly and sobbed into his shoulder. "I...I walked into Adam's room and...and there was...all this...blood...so much blood...oh my God, it was horrible!" She sobbed.
Kris rubbed her back gingerly. "I'm sorry you had to see that, Allie..."
"Wait, you knew?!" she shrieked.
"Yeah, I did. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you. It just...wasn't my business to."
"I...I understand..." she sniffled, wiping her runny nose on her sleeve. "We gotta save him though Kris, please. This is all my fault..." The tears started coming back. "I...I sent him away. I told him I...I...didn't love him. It broke his heart Kris, it really did. And mine as well. I don't know why I did it. I guess...I guess I was scared. But I know now. I know how I feel. I love him. I NEED him. I can't live without him. And now...now he's trying to kill himself off. End his life. And I...just...I...we gotta find him. Before it's too late..."
"Well, what are we waiting for then? Come on!" Kris grabbed her hand and yanked her out of the trailer. Tears were streaming down her face. She could barely see. She couldn't let Adam die on her expense though. She'd never be able to live with herself.
"Hold on Allison, stay here. I'll be right back." He let go of her hand and started briskly walking away.
"Kris!" she cried after him.
"It'll just take a minute!" He sprinted away.
Allison slumped down against the wall, then slid down on it until she was on the ground. She brought her knees up against her chest and hugged them tightly, while swaying left and right. "Come on Kris, come on..." she kept mumbling. He had to hurry. He had to...the clock was ticking away. Each minute that passed slimmed down chances of him being okay. "Come on Kris..."
A few seconds later, Kris materialized, a pair of car keys in his hand. Allison jumped to her feet. "Megan's letting us borrow her car, now come on! Let's go!" Kris grabbed her hand, and they ran to the parking lot.
"Come on, come on..." Allison mumbled over and over to herself as they got in the car. He had to be okay. PLEASE. "Allison...Allison..." Kris said, interrupting her thoughts. She snapped back into reality. "Which way should we go?"
She drew a breath. Which way? Left or right? The choice they picked could determine if Adam was alive or not. If she chose the wrong way, they could arrive too late. She bit down on her lip. 'Oh please God, let me be right...' she prayed silently. "Let's go...right."
"Will do." Kris veered right and sped down the road.
"Come on Kris, faster!"
"I can't! I don't wanna get pulled over! Then we'll never find him in time! I'm already going 15 over the speed limit anyway."
Allison screamed with her mouth shut. They'd never get to him on time. She started crying again. She folded her hands and rested her forehead on them. "God, please...PLEASE let Adam be okay. PLEASE. I know I don't do this often. Heck, I never do. But I'm just asking you for this one thing; let him be alive. I don't care if he hates me. I don't care if he never speaks to me again. I just want him to be okay..."
"Hey Allisom, I think...I think that's my car!" Allison's head shot up. And sure enough, it was there. Kris' car. Off the side of the road. In a ditch.
Kris pulled over to the shoulder, and Allison jumped out of the car. Kris was right behind her. They ran down to the car. She looked through the window. Her hopes immediately sunk. He wasn't there. How would they find him then? Where was he?
As if reading her thoughts, a train whistle went off in the distance. She looked at Kris, who dropped his head sadly. He was thinking the same thing. The train tracks. Adam was dead.
Adam walked through the woods, searching for the way out. He couldn't remember which way he had come. It all looked the same. He was so upset and distressed when he first walked into there that he couldn't remember. Too bad his angel hadn't bothered to point him in the right direction. Yup, his angel. That's what he was calling her. Or...it. He didn't even know if it was real. It could've all been a pigment of his imagination, a way of his conscience speaking to him. His brain could've created that image in his head as a way of telling him no. He could've unknowingly thrown himself off the tracks. Maybe. He still felt that icy chill throughout his body though, from when she touched him. His mind couldn't do that, right? Something told him that this was real. That he really WAS saved by an angel.
Finally, Adam reached the end of the woods. In the distance, he was able to spot Kris' car. But who were those two figures standing by it? He squinted to get a better look. A flash of red caught his eye. Allison. It was Allison. And judging by the plaid shirt on the other figure, that must be Kris. They...they came looking for him? But...why? Maybe the angel was right. There is always someone out there who cares. And he had two somebodys. Kris and Allison.
Kris all of a sudden looked up. Right at him. His eyes connected with Adam's. "ADAM!" he heard him shout. Allison's head shot up as well. Her mouth dropped open. She broke into a run, heading straight towards him. Adam braced himself for impact. The little redhead crashed into him, hugging him tightly. He fell to the ground, laughing a little. She lay on top of him.
"Oh my God, you're okay! You're ALIVE! Oh my God! I was SO worried! I thought...I thought you were dead." She rambled. God, she was adorable.
They locked eyes. Adam's breath caught in his throat. "Adam, I'm so sorry..." Allison started to say. "You just...well...this whole thing just scared me. I didn't mean a word of what I said. Really. I don't care if you cut yourself. That shouldn't matter. You're still the same Adam...that I love..."
Woah. Did she just say what he thought she said? "Yes...yes Adam..." Allison said in a shaky voice. "I love you too." And, she leaned towards him. Their lips connected. Adam deepened the kiss, bringing his hand up and putting it on her cheek, lightly caressing it with his thumb, wiping away her fallen tears. Allison deepened the kiss as well. Screw 'The Princess Bride,' this RIGHT HERE was the most passionate kiss ever. Right here. Allison pulled back about minute later, and they stared deeply into each other's eyes.
"All this time I've spent without you by my side, I dreamt about you I'm a mess, I confess that I'm nothing without you "Hey, you guys done making out yet?" Kris called out. They'd almost forgotten he was there. Adam looked up at him. Kris' hands covered his face, his fingers separated a bit so he could speak through. He glanced at Allison, who seemed to be thinking the same thing. Allison rolled off of him, and they both each grabbed a hold of one of Kris' legs. "Wait...what the...?" They both yanked his feet forward, causing him to fall backwards on the soft, green grass. All three of them erupted with laughter as they lay there on the ground. It was then that Adam realized that he would be okay. He had Kris and Allison, that was all that mattered. His life now...this moment...was heaven. Sure, life had its bad moments. But without those, the good moments wouldn't seem as special as they were. It was there that Adam realized that...maybe life wasn't so bad after all... Every long lost dream led me to where you are I think about the years I spent just passing through Every long lost dream led me to where you are Now I'm just rolling home That God blessed the broken road
Saw you through the windows in my mind
Carved a home for you deep down inside my chest
And I never want to lose such a big part of me again
Lose such a big part of me again.
And there is nothing I can do to prove to you I'm being honest
Now I see, everything; and yes I've known it all along
I was so lost, but I'm back and I finally know now where my heart belongs..."
-Come What May by the Scene Aesthetic
I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
That led me straight to you..."
