I climb out the window and onto the roof.Luke tightest holds my wrist as I crouch down and walk along the roof.

"Don't let me go" I warn

"I won't baby" He assures me

"Okay now walk to the edge of the roof" He instructs

"Luke I'm scared of heights" I tell him.

"I got you,just do it" He asks

I nod and edge towards the edge.I hook my legs over the edge of the roof and my head feels dizzy as I look down.

"You gotta let go of my hand now Ronnie" He asks

"Oh God I can't" I comment

"Come on just let go,I promise nothing will happened to you.Place your palms on the size of the gutter" He asks

I suck in a breath before slowly letting going of his hand and doing as I'm told.I stare down at the floor.

"Okay now jump" He says

A sick feeling hits the pit of my stomach

"Jump?" I gasp

"Yeah jump" He instruct

"Okay Erm" I huff

Soon a loud pounding at the front door sounds through the house

"S*** the cops are downstairs,go baby go" He says

"Okay oh dear god" I panic,my heart nearly pounding out of my chest.

I swing my legs a couple of times and close my eyes before sliding off the roof.My heart pounds and I open my eyes as my knees hit the ground.I scramble up onto my feet and look up at Luke.

"I love you" I mouth to him

"I love you" He mouths back

"Ronnie lift the fence panel up,it'll cut through to the alley way" Dexter instructs

"Okay sure" I nod

He grabs the underneath of the fence panel and crouch under it into the dark alleyway.

I try to clam my nerves down as I exit the alley way I lay eyes on several police cars crowding outside the house.My heart pounds and I try and keep a straight face as I turn left and walk down the road.

"Hey miss" A voice calls from behind me

Busted.

I turn my head around to see a police officer down the road from me.

"Office sir" I huff

"Were you at this party ma'am?" He questions

I take a deep breath before speaking "No sir,I have just come back from uni,the alley way is my cut through" I lie

"I see,well on you to then" He instructs,I turn on my heels and sigh in relief.

"Oh and ma'am" He calls me again

I roll my eyes before turning to face him again.

"You dropped your cigarettes" He mentions

I huff and bend over picking them up.

"Thankyou" I huff and turn on my heels

"No problem" He comments

I stroll down the road so I don't draw anymore attention to myself.Soon I reach the car and pile in it.Turning on the ignition and cranking up the heat to full.

I'm nervous during the drive home and keep looking in my mirrors to make sure the police aren't following me.

I hope Luke's okay and the police didn't find anything in the house.I am relieved when I reach home.I jam the key in the lock and enter the house.Im actually surprised no lights are on,my mums cars here.
