Arranged Love

Chapter 5

* Lanie's POV *

I'm excited that Jason's staying over, I plan to have an epic movie night and I finally have someone to share it with. Popcorn? check. Sugar loaded candy? check. Ice cream? check. Lots of scary action movies? Check. I'm not into chick flicks, they're really predictable, besides that kind of thing doesn't happen in real life. Jason called to say he was 5 minutes away, so not much longer. I start jumping up and down, because I am so overly excited its insane. 

Finally the doorbell rings. I run to open the door, "Dude what took you so long?!!!!!!!!" I screamed, he covered his ears with a wince, "Lets get to movie watching bitch," I added. I remember that I've already had 2 shots of tequila which really wasn't wise, but I'll be fine.

He tackled me and started brutally tickling me, until I screamed again, "I give up! I give up Jase! Sorry for screaming at your face! Let me goooooo!" He finally let me go, "So what movies did you pick?" I listed them all and he started shaking his head, "You know, none of those movies have any hot sex scenes? Where's the fun? Where's the pizzazz?" Pizzazz is a word I taught Jase so that he could be more 'American' 

"The pizzazz and the fun is all in the horror and action that'll be going on so much, we won't have time to miss the sex," He responded with a grunt, and I added, "Too bad, you're an insatiable man-whore," "If you met my boyfriend, you would be too." He shot back.

After watching movies till like 3 a.m., I was nodding off, strangely he wasn't which was weird. This was his only night staying here, and I was ready to go to bed, he would be leaving tomorrow, his apartment was supposed to be ready by then. I got up, stretching my muscles slowly, "I'm gonna go take a shower, and brush my teeth, and I'll be back in like 20 minutes. Ok?" "Great, I'll go get changed too,"

*Jason's POV*

Today was the day, before coming to her house, I finalized my plans with my comrades. Things were coming together nicely,  and everything would be perfect tonight. I had the rest of the necessities in my backpack, which Lanie had given me a nice opportunity to go and retrieve, with her showering and all. I knew she took her clothes into the bathroom with her, so that wouldn't be a problem. I heard the shower turn on, so I went and opened the door to her house and three men came in, we shook hands and quietly went over the plan again.

After a few more minutes, the shower turned off, and we got into position. Me, to the right of the door, Nicholas in front of it and Mark on the left, in the direction of the bag. From what I had observed, she would take about 2 more minutes in the bathroom. I could tell she was done getting dressed, because she started brushing her teeth. Just a few more.... She closes the tap, picks up her stuff and grabs the handle from the inside. For a second, guilt gripped my heart, but I shook it off as quickly as it came

I whisper to my guys... 3..2..1.. She opens the door, and sees Mark, he lunges at her and she starts fighting. We give them about 5 seconds and Nick starts to restrain her. I pull the drug-soaked rag from my jacket, and place it roughly over her nose, from behind, I really don't want her to see my face, but she suddenly turns toward me and the confusion and hurt in her eyes is depressing really. 

Lanie starts holding her breath, I know she can hold it for a really long time, but I was counting on the element of surprise, so she wouldn't have the chance too. Since she somehow managed to turn herself around completely, Nick grabbed her jaw and shut it, until eventually she had to breath the chloroform in and she went under. Lanie collapsed into Mark's arms, and we quickly put her in the large ski bag we had brought, she was a slight girl so carrying her was no problem. While she was showering, we had packed a small duffle of her clothes and other necessities. We made quick work of moving her out of the townhouse and took her to out to the limo.
