The Great Escape

Liam's P.O.V.

Mai's grin was pure mischief as she clasped her hands together. "Alright, it's settled! We're going. And Liam, don't be scared. We'll be fine."

I stared at her, feeling anything but fine. "Mai, this is—"

"Wait here," she interrupted, waving off my protest. "I need to get Ollie."

Eldur frowned, tilting his head. "Why? He's not grounded as we are."

Mai shot him an exasperated look. "Because he's my brother, duh. And I don't want to have new memories without my twin. Besides, we can't leave him out of this—he'd be heartbroken."

I sighed, rubbing my forehead. Of course. This was Mai we were talking about. She might seem hard and unkind on the surface but everyone knew she loved Ollie very much.

"Fine, but hurry up," Eldur said lazily, leaning against the wall. "The sooner we leave, the sooner we can break more rules."

Mai smirked before vanishing down the hall.
