Heartstopper: sighs heavily They're getting closer. We need to move, now.
I can't go back to my old life again, especially now that we're "Together" after all these years...
puts a hand on Desilley's shoulder Look, I know it's been tough, but you can't let your past define your future. We've come this far together.
...I'm scared of what they might do if they find us.
steps closer, a determined look in their eyes Desilley, we can't let fear control us. We've faced worse before, and we've come out stronger.
She takes a deep breath You're right...I mean, what's the worst they could do, right?
narrows their eyes, a hint of a smile playing on their lips Oh, they can do a lot worse than you think, Desilley.
Heart skips a beat What do you mean..?
leans in, their voice low and filled with urgency I mean, Desilley, that they've got resources, connections, and a whole lot of malice at their disposal.
Gulps And you? What do you have..?
smirks, placing a hand on their hip Me? Well, I've got something they don't have.
grins, revealing a hidden gun I've got a little something to even the playing field.
H-Heartstopper...that's...that's illegal..
chuckles, slipping the gun back into their jacket Illegal? Please, Desilley, we're way past the realm of legality at this point.
rolls their eyes, exuding confidence Safe? Look, Desilley, we've been through hell and back, and we've come out alive. Trust me, a little gun isn't going to hurt us now.
Okay...okay..she puts her hand in yours Let's go then..Feeling the warmth of your hand
As Heartstopper and Desilley make their escape, they hear a loud explosion behind them, signaling that their enemies are closing in fast.
H-Heartstopper..we have to hurry..
grits their teeth, gripping Desilley's hand tightly Hold on tight, Desilley. We're not letting them catch us.
quickly pulls out a small vial from their pocket Desilley, breathe! Take a sip of this. It'll calm you down.
She takes a sip B-Better..
takes a deep breath, scanning the surroundings Alright, Desilley, we need to find a place to hide. Somewhere they won't find us.
quickly looks around, spotting an abandoned building nearby There, Desilley! We can hide in there. It's our best shot.
pulls Desilley towards the abandoned building, moving quickly and cautiously Stay close, Desilley. We don't want any surprises.
pushes open the creaky door of the abandoned building, leading Desilley inside This place looks deserted.
Are you sure it's safe..?
raises an eyebrow, grinning Safe? Desilley, we've been through worse than some abandoned building. Trust me, we're good.
Sighs Okay..She leans against the wall God..this is tiring..
looks around the dimly lit space, searching for a secure place to rest Desilley, let's find a spot to lay low for a while.
spots a small, hidden alcove behind a pile of debris There, Desilley! We can hide in that alcove. It's secluded enough.
quickly clears away the debris covering the alcove, making sure it's safe and secure Alright, Desilley, we should be hidden here.
Okay..She sits down God that was tiring..
glances around the room, assessing their surroundings Desilley, we can't let our guard down just yet.
As they settle into the alcove, Heartstopper hears footsteps approaching, causing them to tense up and prepare for whatever comes next.
