Price of the Truth

Chapter 8: Chapter 8



As i hop on top, i decide to not worry myself anymore, i lay on my bed, close my eyes, tuck myself in and go to sleep.

**Michael POV**

I feel warm, but that kind of perfect warm where it's just perfect, it's not too hot, not too cold, just right on the spot, i feel rays of light all over my body.

I open my eyes a little just to be greeted with the suns harsh beans, i quickly cover my eyes up

"Fuck."

its morning, what am i doing here, did i fall alseep on the rooftop, did i fall asleep stargazing again? Possibly.

I try to get up but what is this, i feel something, or someone, someone's warmness on top of me.

I rub my eyes and see its just Haruta laying beside me, we're all cuddled up, this is a bit weird, this feeling im getting..

Ignore it, i have to wake the team up, but, but

Haruta, she's, she's sleeping like a damsel in distress, i cant ruin her beauty sleep, especially in this harsh concrete, let me just,

I slowly and carefully get up then with the same pace lay her on the ground.

"Ouch, My back, fuck, let me."

I prooced to do some morning stretches and my back feels much better, but i have a question, more then 1 actually, why does no one wake me up when they dont see me in the sleeping quarters, why doesn't Haruta wake me up? Why does no one wake me up when i sleep? I mean i get it, the top of the building pretty far from the sleeping quarters, and no one wants to take their sweet time, but damn its annoying.

Also, now we have a new member on board, great, didn't plan that one neither foresee it, guess Asma's speech really touched them, well it touched Zayna, i know that.

Ah whatever, i guess she's a part of the team now.

I take a look at the blue morning sky once before heading down, then i look down, and just as im about to head down.

Who the fuck is that?

A person, seems to be in her 20's paired with a man in his 20's, probably a couple.

They're in cloaks of some sort, black cloaks, with, wait a minute, is that, is that a fucking gun? Two, both of them have guns? And, and they're approaching our building?

I hide immediately and start going down to alert everyone

Wait. Fuck, Haruta

I climb up again and go wake up her up.

"Haruta, get up, morning, fast, get up"

I grab Harutas confused self by the hand and rush to the ladder.

"Michael? What happen?"

"Go, go down, fast"

I urge her to go down and rush as i take a peek again, wait, they've stopped? Now they're going back?

I gotta alert the team.

I observe them for a little longer and both the woman and the man go to enter their car, the woman throws a quick glance at the building then, she looks all the way up, to me, i quickly hide but i dont know if they saw me, after that, i hear their car starting up, they should be going now, i get the courage to take another look but they're gone.

I sigh of relief and go down immediately.

"What happen, Michael?"

"Nothing, its fine now."

"Follow me. It's important, Lets go wake them up."

I grab her hand and i start trying to leave to reach the bed quarters and immediately alert everyone, but Haruta stops and lets go of my hand.

"Michael has stress, tell"

Really terrible timing.

"Haruta look, lets go gather the team and you'll understand."

She nods quickly and follows me, though we're not grabbing hands at the moment.

We enter the hallway to the bedrooms and i start sprinting, wait, what, someone's leaving out the medic door, fuck, i cant stop.

"WATCH OUT."

The person slowly turns to me

"H-Hello?"
