Aria's POV

First step: rip up these dumb sheets. 

Second step: tie the shreds together

Third step: escape

Fourth step: find Asher

Fifth step: I haven't thought this far yet.

Uuuuuuggggggghhhhhh. I have to plan a fifth step! Or else I'll have nothing to do! I stare at the paper with the plan on it. I get an idea for the fifth step. I write it down.

Asher's POV

I hear rustling behind me. I was peacefully wandering through the woods, until that sound. I whip around, knife in hand (don't ask) and nearly hit Aria in the chest. Shit. She holds her hands up in surrender. I lower the knife and apologize. She just smiles. When I ask what happened to her, and why she was here, this was her explanation:

"So, I'm not gonna sugarcoat this. I ran away. Ran away from home. I ripped up my sheets, tired them together, and came here. I had a plan." Here she held up a paper. "You can read it. But I'm gonna stay here. With you." I'm so confused. With me? Did she like me? As in like like me?

I take the paper. It reads:

First step: rip up these dumb sheets

Second step: tie the shreds together

Third step: escape

Fourth step: find Asher

Fifth step: tell him I-know-what  

What was I-know-what? I look up and Aria is...bright pink. What? I must have a very confused look on my face, because she presses her lips together and looks away. 

"I...like you, Asher. More than a friend. And I understand if you don't feel the same way. I just needed to tell you." My jaw drops.

"I-I-I...me too" I stutter. She smiles

A/n: IM SO EVIL!!! YOU SONT GET TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS UNTIL NEXT CHAPTER!!! cya later
