Lillian bit her lip as she read the messages. She was still walking towards her ride though slower than she wanted. She wasn't sure how she was going to get in considering she didn't have a key to Jax's house or garage. Well, there was the emergency key that she knew where it was. It would be fine and she eventually let out a sigh before typing up her response, I'm Lillian.

Luke. He chewed his lip. Was he really the only guy that was awake? This was sad.

Those are beautiful names. Angel typed out. She thought for a moment before also typing, Or handsome, if you prefer that.

Lillian didn't know how to feel about that, so she didn't respond. She let her phone go to sleep mode as she "broke" into Jax's house before grabbing the bike keys and going out to the garage. It was technically her bike given to her by her older brother for her 16th birthday, but she kept it at Jax's house since if she kept it at her house then, well, it wouldn't end well. She revved up her bike and took off heading towards Utah, based on roadsigns.

Faith grabbed Conner's car keys from next to the front door, gave him a quick peck on the cheek, and with one last wistful look around the house, she hefted her backpack and left.

Once she got in the car, she set the navigation on her phone to Salina, Utah and set off, a dark feeling in her heart.

(Sorry, guys. Like Shade said, I'm not the most active person, and I'm in a million and three roleplays rn XD. But I will try my very hardest to keep this active, I promise!)

Luke parked his car outside the safehouse. He wasn't sure if he was the first one here or not, but he hoped he was. He got out, pulled his bag out of the trunk and slung it over his shoulder. He walked up the stairs to the door. He pulled his phone from his pocket and asked Is anyone here yet?

Lillian had gone as fast as she could. She spotted a car and a guy walking up to it and figured that was the place. She made a U-turn on the bike, illegal definitely but who cared, and parked behind the car. Her phone buzzed and she figured it was the dude asking if anyone was here yet. She got off her bike and took off her helmet and walked up to him, "Hey, you're Luke right? I'm Lillian."

Faith's phone pinged while she was raiding a deserted mini-mart somewhere in eastern Nevada, stocking up on food and caffeinated drinks. She stopped outside her car to respond, juggling two full bags of loot. im about halfway there, she typed. 5 more hrs, according to my gps. im in nevada somewhere oof.gonna try and get all the way there by tonight dw

That's no fun. Luke sent the girl in front of him a small smile. "Hey." He waved to her, instantly turning into the carefree, playful, kind guy he liked to act as. "Yeah. I'm Lucian. Luke. You want to go inside, or see if the last person will come?"

Lillian checked her phone and made a face at the message. The poor girl, she was probably following speed limits and traffic rules. She looked to Luke smiling and shrugged, "Don't know. She said she would be fine on her own, but who knows. I'm thinking we should wait a few more minutes."

"Probably." Luke shook his head. "How did you get here so fast?" He shrugged. "Then again, it's none of my business." He jerked his head at the safehouse behind them. "How do you think we'll get in?"

Angel woke up from her nap to the sound of a notification.
"They're here!"
She ran down stairs as a wave of anxiety washed over her.
She looked over to Anna, who had been roaming around the house and asked, "Could you go keep an eye on him?"
Yeah, sure. The feline padded up the stairs and curled up with Corwyn.
Angel dusted her clothes off and opened the door.
"Hey, guys. C'mon in. Rooms are down the hallway, and there's grilled cheese in the fridge if you're hungry."

Luke was startled when the door opened with such force. "Um," he managed to get out. "Hi?"
He shook his head. "You have this all planned out, don't you?" He shook his head with a chuckle. "Thanks."

Lillian looked at the girl slightly dumbfounded. She looked a little too young to be able to drive, and considering she had to be the one from texas, how in the world did she get here so fast? Was this her safe house? She kept her thoughts to herself as she looked to Luke, "Um, I'm guessing you're Angel?"

"You're welcome." Angel said, smiling at Luke.
Turning to the girl, she answered, "Yep! My room is upstairs, but you guys can have any of the ones in the hallway." before walking to the kitchen and getting out the sandwiches.

Lillian nodded and stepped into the house. She found the whole thing strange, but she wasn't going to question anything. Especially after what was going on with everyone asleep. She looked around the safehouse, "So this is your house? I thought you lived in Texas."

"Oh, I do. I just figured if we were meeting up in Utah, we needed a place to stay. Don't worry, no one's here. I think they're on vacation."
The short girl then climbed on the counter to reach the cups up in the cabinet. Jumping down, she grabbed the tea pitcher from the fridge.

Lillian watched her still dumbfounded. Who in the world was she and how did she get the house? She kept quiet figuring that she shouldn't actually be questioning this type of stuff. She just nodded and kept an eye on her, "Got it."

"Here you go!" Angel dished out the sandwiches and tea, before putting the pitcher away.
