Sasha had no idea yet that she was pregnant, that they’d be raising a baby on the run... but she felt they could face anything together. She was happy he was going with her, though it felt selfish to let him. She bit her lip as she watched, almost holding her breath. It had been so long since she hadn’t felt this think on her ankle and when it was off, there was a brief moment of relief, and then the panic kicked in again as she jumped up, grabbing his hand and a couple extra things as they rushed out of the house. When he said they were free she could hardly believe it. She jumped into the car once everything was thrown in the backseat, making sure she had her bank card so she could withdraw all her money, and turned to look over at him as they drove towards the town boundary. “I love you so much...” She told him, hoping he knew how much she appreciated this. Honestly - she wasn’t sure she’d be able to do this without him. Turning to look out the back window as they passed the leaving town sign, Sasha watched Baberton disappear behind them, and then she turned and faced forward, focus on their survival and their future.

Sasha had always believed Harvey was it for her, the be all and end all, and here she was staring back into Jason’s eyes and she couldn’t feel happier. He actually wanted to go with her, she could tell. Like he didn’t want to lose her and it made her feel good. “Okay..” Sasha nodded, turning to grab another bag so she could start throwing things in. She didn’t want to leave anything important but she didn’t want to end up taking too much time and the police ending up at her door. Had they actually got Chloe or? Was she alive? Was the proof sent elsewhere yet? So much spinning round her mind. She turned when he came back into the room, biting her lip. The police would be alerted right away. She felt ill. Were they even going to make it? They had to... right? She nodded, looking up at him. Everything was packed. “Yeah... I’m ready. Do it.”

Sasha had no real issue with Chloe other than the fact her face annoyed the crap out of her but she wasn’t going to go around offing her for it, even if nobody would believe it. She wondered if Jason would but she’d be gone soon so if he did it wouldn’t matter. His words made her freeze in surprise. She looked at him. “What?” Disbelief in her voice. “Are you serious?” He wanted to go with her? He wanted to essentially go on the run with her? Break the law and get this thing off her ankle somehow? “You don’t have to do this...” He had a life, he had his friends, his family. She couldn’t help herself from moving closer and leaning up to kiss him, though she was still in panic mode so it was quick, but she couldn’t believe he was even willing to entertain it. To go with her. To believe her. “I’ll pack as much as I can... we can take the car and then switch it out for a different one before we hit the main roads.” Maybe they buy a cheap one with cash somewhere. “I’ve got my mum’s savings, I can withdraw it when we leave.”

She knew there was no way out of this. No one would listen to reason, not when it came to her. She’d been attacked in prison, she’d been attacked out of prison, she had no one in her corner but Jason and maybe Harvey, she had no chance. She looked back at him... God, she loved him. She did. She would never have seen that coming but fuck did she love him and she started to cry a little at the thought she’d have to leave him. “I..” She shook her head, turning to throw things into her bag again. “I have to go... I.... I’m being set up, look...” She thrust her phone at him, the contents of the email on the screen, because she wasn’t sure she’d be able to explain, though she knew he wouldn’t like seeing Chloe that way. “They’ll lock me back up, Jace...” She turned to look at him, panic in her eyes. “I can’t go back there, I can’t, I won’t make it a second time...” She thought of the scars on her wrists. “I have to... I have to get this thing off my ankle and I have to disappear, I’m... I’m sorry. I’m so sorry..”

“How thrilling.” She chuckled.

After checking her email Sasha was panicking like mad. She’d seen video clip of -A attacking Chloe Pierce and then a close up of her stolen phone... and the texts that had been sent to Chloe to meet -- but Sasha didn’t send them, -A did! The police were going to take one look at Chloe’s phone, see the text, and no one was going to believe her - not after Annie. She was finished. She could not go back to prison, she couldn’t, not back to those people... she felt tears as she started running around trying to shove things into bags so she could get in the car and just go, but when she heard the door her heart sank. Jason. She turned around when she heard him come into the room, very obviously distressed.
