#AVAACADOO#

The car slows down eventually although my body hit the gravel with much force. I crossed my arms over my face and rolled in a fetal position.I was close the edge of the road so I ended up rolling a slope sided hill.

I eventually stood my ground when I hear door closing and boots hitting the pavement at the top. There were his guards holding guns while staring down at me. With that I bolted into the clear forest.Sunlight beamed through the treetops making patches of the swampy land beneath my sneakers visible. I knew they were not far behind so I took a left and ran with dear life towards a huge stomp.

I took cover behind it and crouched down to catch my breathing.

Luckily I was fit enough to out run those mega buggers. I hear them stop when they decide to go the other way I was heading.

I could hear the noise drown out by the chirping birds and loud crickets around me. I felt comfortable and relaxed at this moment when I realized I lost my lollipop on the way. I probably looked like a creepy girl walking in the forest with a frown on her face because someone died. But no, worst than that I plastered on my deep frown because I lost my lollipop.

I walked for a while and eventually threw the M&M's packet on the ground when I see a clearing by a small narrow river. I thank god when I see a brown logged house.

It was small and cosy-looking from the outside when I see a woman rocking back and forth on a wooden chair; patting a white fluffy cat. I didn't want to startle her so I let the autumn leaves beneath me crunch as I near her front porch.

"I don't usually get visits this time of the day" The elderly woman speaks while her eyes stay shut, taking in the warm sunlight. She looked peaceful and I didn't want to be rude or annoy her for a fact.

"I don't usually end up in the middle of the forest unless I'm in trouble" I whisper while looking at the ground. I give her my famous puppy dog eyes when she gasps and the fluffy cat jumps off and darts into the house.

"Dear lord, you're hurt darling. Let me help you, come inside now" She says in a friendly and kind manner. I follow suite and get seated on a marshmallow like sofa which was covered in furry coated pillows lined orderly.

The woman whose name was Lindy had cleaned my left knee and bandaged it. She also cleaned the slight cut on my eyebrow. Nothing too major or that I couldn't handle. I thank her before she offers me to stay and have lunch and of course I couldn't say no to my greedy and grumbling tummy.

"What's your name darling?" Lindy asks from the kitchen as I lean on the counter taking out two plates for us which she had instructed me to take out. I thought for a while weather to tell her my real name or not when I thought why not. It's not like I would see her again now would I? Although I did want to thank her for helping out a stranger...maybe one day.

"My name is Alex" I say when she stops to look at me with a beautiful smile on her tan skin. Her eyes were a shade of the lightest brown. I swear I had seen that colour of eyes before but I couldn't lay my finger on it.

"Such a pretty name for a beautiful woman" She states as she places a dish of pasta on the dinning table. I could feel my cheeks flush as we both take our seats. I dig into the pasta and praise her for a mouth watering meal I hadn't had in years. I couldn't help the curiosity in me when I ask her as politely as my manners would show.

"You mentioned earlier that you don't usually get company. I couldn't help but think there's someone who often visits...like a relative?" I question with raised eyebrows and realized my fork was in mid air. I stuff the fork in my mouth as a small smile forms on Lindy's face.

"Yes, my dear husband had passed away a few years ago and I decided to stay away from the city side as you can see..." I nod as she continues. "...my son comes once in a while when he has got a lot on his mind or when he needs someone to talk to. He's a grown man but family is everything now isn't it?" She finishes and sips on her lemonade when I nod once again.

"It is indeed" I checked the time on my watch which read 3. I quickly helped her with the dishes and cleared her dinning table which I had to insist to help.

"Thank you for everything Lindy. I don't know how I can repay your favor"I say sincerely as I tug on my backpack.

"Oh no, no need to Alex. I appreciate the company for an elderly woman"She says with a laugh. I see her examining each and every detail on my face which caused me to hide my flushed cheeks with my long sleeved sweater. She raised both her hands and put my hands down while giving me a wide toothy smile.

"I love your blush...what's better than a cute blush?" She questions with a glowing hint in her light eyes.

"Wrinkles"I simply state when she pulls me into a bear hug. I take in her warmth and a swift scent of honey dew. She pulls away when she looks deep into my eyes and speaks in a low tone.

"Promise you will visit me sometime soon?" She asks with her cute puppy dog eyes and playful pout. I stifle a laugh and nod in a happy manner. We say goodbye as I make my way up the hill the way Lindy instructed which would lead me to the road.

I smile when I see it. I had never been more happier to see the ugly corolla on the side of the road with a worried Jace screaming in his phone.

"You look cute when your looking all worried and scared if I may add"I say as he swivels around on his heels and pulls me into his chest in a suffocating hug. He exhales slowly when we break apart.

He tells me how worried he had been and of course I had to tell him about Lindy. He still seemed worried though and asked to take me to the hospital even for my injury. The ride was long back to our apartment when he decided he was going to crash in my living room to 'look out for me'.

Jace was sitting on the floor leaning against the couch while I lay on my side on the couch playing with his strands of smooth hair. We both sat facing the huge T.V watching Deadpool on Netflix.

"Avaaacadooo"He howls when I remember the vine he had shown me few days ago. To be honest Deadpool did look like an avocado who had sex with another avocado. I was laughing my head off when I get up to refill the popcorn in the kitchen.

"Yo, don't you think the CEO looked hot! I mean wow he looked gorgeous-"

"You kidding me? He's our CEO" I yell from the kitchen while the popcorn popped in the microwave. I opened a bag of Doritos and tried to keep the crunching to a minimum.

"I can smell it bitch!" When I see Jace hovering over the counter as he enters the kitchen.

I almost choke on a chip when I slide on top of the counter and run into the living room with Jace throwing his warm shoes at me. He missed the first one when I feel a thud on my head.

"You DUMB ASS!" I exclaim when I turn around and catch him in a headlock. I end up with dangling my legs with my arms wrapped around his neck.

"GET OFF FAT ASS!" Jace yells dramatically when we hear a knock on the door. We both freeze when I slide off and pick up the packet of Doritos from the ground.

"You invite Fergy?" I whisper at him trying to lighten up the mood with his ex named Fred which I named Fergus...then eventually became Fergy.

"Get out from the window..NOW-" Jace hushes me when we both turn pale looking at the door that bolted off the hinges and in came two bold men dressed in black.
