𝐀𝐏𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐘𝐏𝐒𝐄 | Lorelei Keller is having a hard time coping. First her parents divorced and her mother left, and now her father is forcing her to move to a little town in Indiana. She doesn't want to be bitter about it, but there is no way to...
Steve huffed under his breath but complied nonetheless. As they walked, he made sure to keep a steady pace next to her, and his eyes glanced over at the map every now and then to ensure that they were going in the right direction.
The kids were walking a step behind them, with Mike holding the gasoline in his hands securely.
