"Ladies first." Shawn gestured toward the window.

"Are you crazy?" I hissed at him.

"I'll break a leg if I jump!"

"Fine, I'll jump out first and catch you. Alright?"

The footsteps were getting closer and they sounded like they were running.

I tapped my foot impatiently and wished Shawn would climb through the window faster.

"Hurry!"

"I'm trying! Almost-there..." I heard Shawn's feet hit the ground.

I started climbing out the window.

I was praying that I wouldn't fall.

If I did, would Shawn catch me?

"YOU, STOP!" One of the tomato gangster boys ran into the bathroom, aiming a tomato at my face.

   I screamed and jumped, not giving Shawn any warning.

To my luck, he had caught me.

   "Are you okay?" Shawn asked.

   I nodded and look back up at the window.

I saw the same boy looking down at us.

   "Guys, they're over here!" He shouted and started climbing out of the window too.

   "Run!" I pushed on Shawn's back and we both took off into a sprint.

While running I looked over and saw a big garbage bin with a girl around Aaliyah's age standing inside of it, but that's not what made me stop.

She was holding her phone, filming Shawn and I.

No one could find out that Shawn and I were together, even just as friends!

"Claire, come on!" Shawn noticed that I had stopped.

"She's filming us!" I ran over to her and Shawn was close behind.

"Who cares? Those guys are going to get us!" Shawn looked nervously behind us.

The smell in the garbage can was nasty.

Not garbage nasty, more like decaying flesh nasty!

What was in that garbage bin?

"Hand me the phone!" I screamed at the girl and she shook her head at me.

"Please?" Shawn asked kindly, also correcting my impoliteness.

"No!" She yelled at him.

Shawn sighed and picked her up, and lifted her out of the garbage bin.

Her shoes were covered in blood and both Shawn and I looked at each other with wide eyes.

I stepped closer and peeked inside the garbage bin and sure enough, there was a dead mans body.

"She's a crazy psycho child!" I told Shawn.

"Hand the phone over and we won't tell anyone." Shawn tried to come up with the best plan to get it from her.

"NEVER!" She shouted.

"Shawn, catch!" I tossed the cologne that was still in my hand, over to him.

Shawn popped off the cap and immediately sprayed the girl in her eyes.

She crippled over and screamed out in pain.

He snatched the phone and handed it to me.

I threw it to the ground and stomped on it.

"No one can know about us! No one!" I told Shawn frantically.

Out of nowhere, a tomato hit my arm.

The tomato gangsters had caught up with us.

"Come on!" I took Shawn's arm and pulled him along with me, and we ran towards his jeep.

"That was a waste of my money." Shawn breathlessly told me, referring to the cologne.

"Technically it wasn't a waste. We didn't buy it." I told him.

"We shoplifted?" His eyes went wide.

We got to his jeep and I rolled my eyes, and climbed inside.

  "It's not a big deal. Hurry and drive before they can get your license plate number!"
