Chapter Nineteen: Trade

I climbed the stairs, the sense of impending doom almost overwhelming at this point, but I pushed through, forcing myself to go through with Edward’s plan. It was dark out, so I guess the running through the woods, and the subway trip had taken a couple hours. Would Edward be back yet, was the training over by now? Would he see my kiss I left?

I sighed, and gripped the ballet studio’s handle. The door wasn’t locked and I noticed a sign that said the studio is closed for remolding. I didn’t pay too much attention to the other signs, and I went in, closing the door as quietly as possible behind me.

Everything was dark, and I wasn’t about to bring attention to our trespassing by turning anything on, so I waited for my eyes to adjust. I was too nervous to be hungry and I hadn’t had a bathroom break, and still I felt no need. It’s weird what adrenaline can do for you.

I didn’t see anyone else, I sighed, of course they were still on their way, probably taking different routes I hope. I didn’t know what to do from here. I prayed that no one found the note; I didn’t want to put everyone in danger.

The entrance lead to the waiting room, I could see into the main room from the windows and there were sheets of plastic covered the far wall. They were remodeling in here, but it made this place feel creepy. I thought about taking a seat, but I changed my mind. Maybe they were in the main room, hiding just in case.

I opened the door to the main room, and I froze. The lights flickered on, they were motion censored. Did it also send an alarm? Did I again endanger this whole mission? Why couldn’t I do anything right? GOD DAMMIT!

“RUN!!” The scream made me flinch, and adrenaline kicked in before it had time to die down. That was Alice’s voice, and she was afraid! It was coming from behind the plastic remodeling sheet! Someone had found the note! They beat me here! I listened to  and I did run, just toward Alice.

After everything we’ve been through, after all the memories of screaming and laughing, I knew damn well Alice was looking out for me. That if she wanted me to run there was a really damn good reason why I should, but leaving Alice when she was screaming to save me? It was against my morals to leave someone, especially because it was my fault and because she was trying to save my life.

She wouldn’t be screaming to begin with if someone hadn’t found that note. It’s the only way Edward, Emmett and Jasper’s plan could have been ruined. I did this, it had to be because of me. I paused before I pushed the curtain back. Alice hadn’t said anything in awhile.

“Who would have guessed!” What? What the hell was going on? Whose voice was that? I wasn’t familiar with whoever was behind there. If Alice was here though, I wasn’t going to leave her! I pulled the curtain back, instantly searching for Alice. I had to save Alice.
