PAINTING THE BUS
POV-WRITERS:

The whole warehouse grew quite, no one moves or talks. The only sounds were everyone's slow breathing and Adrienne's panicked breathing.

"Can anyone take care of the body?" Ila asks, breaking the silence.
"Don't worry, we've got it." Archie says.

Ila moves the girl around, so she could carry her bridal style. Adrienne doesn't flinch to move. They stays still, their breath still in a panicked fright. Ila slowly stands up, Adrienne in her arms. She walks over to the stairs that lead to everyone's bedroom, she stops and turns around, looking at Dante.

"I'm gonna go run a shower for her, can you make her a hot chocolate with Carmel and Chocolate sauce mixed into it?" Ila explains.
"Of course!" Dante replies, smiling.
"Don't be afraid to get yourself something to eat or drink." Ila replies.

With that, Ila then ascends the stairs, Adrienne in her arms, and walks to her own room. Archie and Katy pick Laylas body up in a blanket, Ila follows while carrying a lighter. All of them take it up to the rooftop. Dante walked back into the kitchen, taking two cups and a plate.

. . .MEANWHILE. . .

Ila finally gets Adrienne to the bathroom that they both shared, a door on either side so they could enter from either room. She places Adrienne down on her bed and grabs a spare towel. She opens the bathroom door and turns the warm water on. Ila turns back to Adrienne, who stands, holding their wounded arm. She walks over to the girl, handing her the towel, which they takes.

"Here, take my spare towel. Wash up, I'll bring a set of clean clothes. I'll put them on the counter." Ila says.
"I'll try..." The girl mumbles.

Ila leaves, and Adrienne changes and hops into the shower, the blood running into the drain.

. . .TIME SKIP. . .

The girl finishes and changes into the clothes ila brought her, a pair of gray traggy bottoms, a blue crop tank top and a black oversized jacket. They places their semi wet hair into a loose bun. They unlocks the door to Ila's room and then unlocks the doors to her room. They quickly places the bloody clothes into a wash basket. They opens the door to their room, and picks the basket up. They walks out of the room, sliding the basket over to their bedroom door. They glances to her bed, two figures sat there. Tall and small. Ila and Dante sat reading a book from the girls' bookcase. They smiles slightly at the sight. A plate and a cup sits on the table at the end of her bed. Ila turns her head, smiling.

"Did that help you freshen up, love?" Ila asks.
"Yeah..." Mumbles the girl.
"Come here." Ila whispers.

Adrienne slowly walk over and sits down in-between ila and Dante, who hands them a cup of hot chocolate. They brings it up to their face, taking a sip. Their eyes widen with delight. Their favourite hot chocolate getting downed in seconds. They reaches over and places the cup back onto the table. They sits up straight, Dante handing them a plate, three sandwiches sat on there, melted marshmallows inside. They takes one and gives the other two to the people beside them, they gladly take it.

"Thank you, Dante!" She says, smiling brightly.
"You're welcome!" Dante says, smiling back.

After eating, dante puts the plate down and Lorna suddenly bursts into the room, gasping for breath, clearly out of it.

"You're gonna wanna come up to the rooftop." Lorna says, gasps.

POV-CHARACTERS:

Lorna leads us back up to the rooftop, taking the stairs up. When we get up there, everyone stands there, pointing to the other warehouse I owned.
