Unusual

23

"You're unusual but that's the way I like it. Now no one can replace you."

It's been a day since we've gotten any company from anyone. Literally no one has came into this building since Henry dropped off some furniture. It made me a little relieved since nothing could happen when they weren't here, but scared because what if they forgot about us and left us to die.

Come to think about it, I noticed the lack of presence by Number 004. Did they kill him or what happened?

"What the hell ever happened to Number 004?"

Jade looked up from her hands, "now that you mention it, he hasn't been back since Henry was fuming that he killed Alice."

"What do you think happened?"

"Well he could either still be alive somewhere else, dead, or escaped but if he didn't escape then that would be bad."

"True."

"Ugh I'm so hungry!" Jade fell back into the bed.

"I am too. Hopefully they come back with nice juicy steak and bread sticks."

She sat back up, "Harry you're making me hungry."

"My bad." We stayed silent, "if we get out of here I'm going to take you out on a nice dinner date. And we could watch movies together and go to the park."

"What about the woods?"

"Yeah that sounds interesting. Let's just do a bunch of pointless stuff together."

"I agree." She came closer with a smile on her face.

Out of nowhere, my stomach growled so loud and long that Jade started laughing uncontrollably. I just smiled at her as she tilted her head back and clutched her stomach. She was beautiful and I can't wait to get out of here.

Lately I have been thinking about the future with Jade. There has been some ideas here and there that were insane to accomplish, some that were boring, confusing, unworkable, and then the usual.

When Jade told me her story about how she got here, her mom was dead and who knows where the hell her dad was. It was obvious she didn't have a place to stay. My parents wouldn't be thrilled with having her live with us for a while, mainly because of who she could potentially be.

The other option would be to buy a home with, or for her. As crazy as it may seem, I would try to but I don't have enough money for that. I promised her that she would be happy so my last option that I could think of, was to do something I might regret. With time maybe I wouldn't mind.

"Ok ok I'm done." she sighed.

"What do you think your life looks like if we got out of here?"

"Just whatever happens, why?"

"I promised to make you happy afterward and I've been thinking about some things to do. They're all really weird but I have an idea."

"Which is?" She rose her eyebrow.

"I'll try to make money as fast as I can by selling drugs, but in the me-"

Jade frowned right away, "woah woah woah slow down. You're going to sell drugs?"

"How else would I make loads of cash as soon as possible?"

"Harry that isn't something you should take lightly. You need to think about everything. If you get caught then your life is basically over."

"I know Jade."

"I can't let you do that. Nothing is worth the risk. Nothing."

"You're worth the risk."

She was taken back. Nothing came out of our mouths but air we exchanged. I searched her eyes for a change in mind but they were confused.

"Harry you are not selling drugs." She said sternly.

"I need to."

Jade raised her voice, "No! I can't loose you."

"Jade-"

"I can't loose you." Her mouth whispered again. It was like there was something more to what she intended to mean, but nothing else came out. That was when I realized that she needed me as much as I needed her.
