"I can attempt to, it's better than either shifting and killing everyone.. Including myself." She adds quietly under her breath."or getting caught again."
"Come on then!" Taking her uninjured arm, he guided her down to the most unsecure room of the house: the barrel disposal, "The trash is dumped into the stream and carried out, luckily the trash doesn't get dumped until tomorrow, so we're safe!" He opened up a hatch in the floor, which allowed them to jump into a flowing stream, "Come on!"
Alex gripped her arm, "This way!" He spluttered, then splashed his way down the water, halfway under the water and taking her down the water and toward the woods.
She follows Alex, helping him to stay above the water. She swims towards the bank and pulls Alex out of the water, staying in the water for a little longer.
She wakes up a few hours later and finds herself in his arms. After stretching she hops down and shifts back to her human form, careful not to wake Alex. She walks into the next room and changes into another shirt.
