Dear Diary,

According to Aaron, we're getting out of here tomorrow. He's got a plan. Or so he says. But he doesn't want to tell us what it is in case the people running this place get wind of what we're up to and try to get it out of us.

"We might only get one shot at this," he said just a little while ago in the courtyard, our usual hangout. "So we need to make it count."

Roger shook his head but didn't say anything. Maybe he's grown tired of fighting with Aaron. Or maybe, like me, he's actually a little bit curious to see what Aaron has in mind. I've had enough of being cooped up in here, of being treated like a guinea pig myself. I think we all have. And, yes, I know things are bad outside. Really bad. But I've been thinking, a lot, and I guess I'd rather take my chances out there than spend the rest of my life trapped in here, no matter how much better off we might be. Although, just how much better off we actually are in here has been a topic of debate in recent days.

Aaron: "The place could be under siege at this very moment for all we know. It's not like we have any idea of what's going on out there."

Roger: "You keep talking about leaving. So how is that supposed to happen if the place is surrounded?"

Aaron: "I'm willing to take my chances. Better than sitting around in here waiting for the zombies to break in and slaughter us."

The last time Luke and I were alone, I asked him what he thought about Aaron's supposed plan.

"I don't know what to think," he told me. "The guy's kinda crazy. And I don't like him, not one bit. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what he has in mind. If nothing else, it should be good for a laugh."

Then he kissed me. This one lasted longer than any of the other times. Does this mean we're boyfriend and girlfriend? I don't know and I'm afraid to ask. I don't want to scare him off. Whatever's going on between us, I can only hope it continues. Because whenever we're together, I'm able to forget about all the awful things that have happened. Mom... Dad... The pain goes away for a little while.

It feels so good to have someone to love in the middle of all this. And, yes, I do love him. I'm pretty sure that I have since the moment I first saw him. It's a cliché, I know; the kind of thing you read about in a book or see in a movie. But it's true. I haven't told Luke about my feelings, haven't told anyone. I'm pretty sure I'd die of embarrassment if anyone was to read this. So I'll just have to make sure that doesn’t happen, that it stays our little secret, Diary.

If what Aaron says is true, if he
