New Mexico

/"We can hyper speed, get as far as we can and if it looks like the birds are taking us further and it's getting dark, we come back and call it off until morning. It's not like we're incapable of holding off a vamp or two. We are bad ass bitches, Chica, we can hold our own for a short stretch of running./" Meadow seems amused by my reluctance, talking to me as though I'm her child and continues to squeeze my hand as though coaxing a toddle. I glare at her and try so hard to remind myself that I am the one who's meant to be in charge here, braver, fiercer , and I need to stop wussing out.

/"Ughhhhh, can we just go. Sitting here isn't doing anything!/" it's Carmen this time, also looking at me like she's disappointed in my fear, and I screw my eyes shut to calm my racing heart and nod.

/"Okay…. But if it feels wrong, or it gets too dark…/" I plead and Meadow nods before I finish my whispering, shaky demands.
