"Pretty cool name. Strange but cool."
"Who are you guys?" I nervously asked. When Keith was done, I returned to my polo neck.
Blaire responded, "Ever heard of the Mafia?"
"Oh, I've heard of them. They're all over the news, but no one's seen their faces so no one knows how....wait a minute."
That's when I realised, I was in a lair of one of the most deadliest minds in the country. Shock flooded my body. Keith stood with his arms crossed and Blaire took of her coat.
"At least now you know when to not cross the the line", she determined as she sashayed out.
Keith chuckled,"Looks like kitty got her claws out." He smirked and took me back to that room _of misery_.
He locked the door as he left. I paced around the room. There's literally no way of getting out. So what, I'm just gonna be cooped up in here and only going out when I have to help on of them. This frustrated me.I thought of how things back at the hospital were going, then I remembered. I could make a phone call. I was about to reach into my pocket but the door opened and Keith walked towards me. I backed up until I was against the wall. He wasn't gonna do anything. I hoped.
It was as if he was touching my ass when actually, he took my phone from my back pocket."I'll be keeping this", he smirked as he went out locking the door again.
" ARGH!!!" I grunted in anger.
I looked up at the room and noticed a clock. _tick tock tick tock_. It was quiet. I'd sit on the bed then by the hour I'd lie lifelessly on the floor. Feeling it's coldness pierce through my skin. Perhaps it wouldn't be so bad if they did shoot me.
I looked at the door then ran my fingers through my hair and felt a hair pin. _THAT'S IT_
I took out the pin and my hair fell onto my face. I walked to the door and tried to pick the lock. I figured I'd need another hair pin. So I reached to the back of my head and took out a pin. I moved my hair behind my ears and used the pins to unlock the door.*_click_*
_I can't believe it worked_, I exclaimed happily to myself. I stuck my head out to check if there was anyone. _No one_. I heard voices come from at the end of the right hallway so I went left. I suddenly got anxiety. _What if they catch me_.
I continued walking until I reached the end of the corridor. At this point my heart was racing. I had no idea where the front or back door was. It was as if the house was a maze. _Was it even a house?_
After a few minutes of tuning and ending up no where, I heard a voice approaching me. I was in hallway that had many doors, only one was opened.
"Hold on, I just have to get something!"
I panicked and ran into the room. I later realised it was a bedroom. I slid myself under the bed and watched from a low view as the guy entered and walked around the room. I tried to calm down but then I saw pieces of clear plastic that had a whitish powder in them. 'Drugs', I thought.
Surprisingly, the guy stopped. I held my breath.
Next thing I heard a gun cocking."Get out", he said.
Even though I hadn't seen him, I felt that the gun was pointed at my feet that had shown out. I slowly got out from under the bed and stood up with my hands up.It was the blonde guy. " Aqua?" He pulled back the gun and tucked it in his back pockets. He sighed. "What are you doing here?"
"I- ", I started speeding through my words. " I was thirsty and I wanted water to drink but then I got lost having no idea where the kitchen is. Then when I heard you coming I panicked ran in here and hid. Please don't kill me", I inhaled as I ended.
He chuckled. "I'm gonna act as if I buy that little story of yours."
Then Keith came running in. "Hey Ace! Damon's..." His attention turned towards me. "Well what do have here?''I looked at them both from across the bed. I walked towards them heading for the door. " Look I'll just go back, 'cause clearly.... I no longer have my right to freedom. I went past Ace but when I went past Keith....
