The gun shots started, and the more we tried to get away from them, the louder they got. We couldn’t make it to the entrance before they started. As a result we were forced to hide between the rocks on which we were sitting by the river, with no weapons, nothing but hands and feet to defend each other. We were stuck, unable to get out from behind those rocks.
How come every time I try to have a romantic moment with Jace, a war starts? Was our love that deadly? And how come we were always hiding behind rocks?
Bullets were flying over our heads, crashing themselves against the outside wall, some actually managing to get through the door. It was near impossible for us to get out without getting shot. We spent only a few minutes there, yet it felt like forever.
