Run (The Hunted)
“Reid waits two more heartbeats before letting the boy rise to the surface. Drew does, choking out water, eyes huge behind glasses he’s managed to hang onto through it all. “You have to stop fighting me.” Reid risks that whisper. “Drew, stop.” Drew chokes on some more water. His teeth chatter together and Reid knows his own are close behind. His legs are numb from the cold, hands on fire in it. They don’t have much time left. Drew nods at last, clinging but not struggling any longer. Reid turns,... his weariness making him slow, and searches for the shore. He groans very softly as he realizes the edge is no longer reachable. In the course of their struggle, they have drifted far from the others. Reid turns them around, paddling gently to avoid more sound and conserve his strength. All around them is only more water. Until he turns west. There is the opposite bank, still far but the closest of any. Reid draws a breath and strikes out. The water is heavy on his limbs, Drew’s weight pulling him down.MoreLess
