The City Of Astan

Louis

I stir in my sleep but don't wake, sighing.

Sam

He stirs and I let go of his hand, standing and throwing my jacket on. I head down the fire escape and to the capital, planning to get what I was going to before he caught me.

Louis

I lay down in my sleep and curl up, taking a deep breath.

Sam

I Remember that they know what I look like. Swearing, I walk to the store and bye a hair color dye,this color. I get it done at the salon before making my way back to the building, breaking in as the alarm goes off.

Louis

I wake up to find Sam gone. Thinking she probably just needed to get out of here for a bit, I stand and make myself something to eat.

Sam

Getting the money before the police come, I bring it to the alley and hide it behind the trashcans. I walk back to the fire escape and climb back up, entering through the still open window.

Louis

Sam comes back with red hair and I study her for a moment before going about what I was doing, "Hello there."

Sam

I nod, "Hey."

I walk over to him and watch him make whatever he was making, "Got some money."

Louis

I study her, "I really don't know how to react to that yet... Um... Let's try, were you seen?"

Sam

I shake my head, "Nope," I smile.

Louis

I smile and nod, "Good. Hungry?"

Sam

I nod, "Yeah," I sigh, "I'mma head out and get some wine," I say, "Want anything while I'm out?"

Louis

I think, shaking my head, "Nah, thanks though. Do you want something to eat? I'll make it so it's ready when you get back."

Sam

I nod, backing up back towards the window, "Um...tacos," I chuckle, sliding out the window and walking to the liquor place. I get the wine and make my way back, my accident cutting my stomach on the way out. Ugh. That's what I get for wearing a low cute tee...

Before it bleeds too much, I climb back up the fire escape and slide in.

Louis

I make the tacos and finish just as she comes back in. Her stomach is all bloody when I see her. Confused, I grab a hand towel and walk to her, pressing it to the wound, "What happened?"
