a psychological response. It occurs when hostages or abuse victims bond with their captors or abusers. This psychological connection develops over the course of the days, weeks, months, or even years of captivity or abuse...
i have been in this house for just a little over a week now, i mean it's nice, billies rich as hell, but i'd rather be back home, my home not this place, i've tried to escape a few times, but ever succeeded
i tried tying the sheets together from my room, i had finished and threw it out of the window, billie caught me, and moved me into the same room as her, which just made everything harder
i managed to actually get over the gate twice
the first i was already half way up the gate, Billie was still at the door of the house shouting for people come chase after me, she sent a few shocks up the gate, nothing too major, until she sent one when i was on top of the gate, it burnt the bottom of my feet, i jumped off and landed on my knees, i ended up breaking skin, but i didn't care, i was of her property i stood up and started running along the road with blood trickling down both my legs, it felt like the skin was being ripped off the bottom of my feet, i looked behind and saw a car following me, i started slowing down from the amount of pain i was in, the car sped up, finneas got out of the car and picked me up "billie isn't happy" he said before putting me in the car, when we got back billie bandaged me up and carried me up the bedroom and cuffed me to the bed
the second time i made sure i had shoes on
i barely got over the fence, billie upped the velocity on the shocks, i nearly fell off twice from the pain, but after i got over, i ran, and i kept running, i could hear a car in the distance, but i didn't stop, eventually i got a woods and in, i knew i'd loose them in the woods and i did "y/n, come on out baby" it was billie, and she was close, i didn't have much energy so i hid behind a tree, when i heard them getting close, i panicked and started running again, i could hear them behind me shouting, after a couple minuets of running, my vision became blurry, and my body was getting weaker every step, i eventually came to stop as a fell to the floor, i rolled onto my back and covered my face, i felt my body being picked up, i opened my eyes and saw billie "just go to sleep princess" she said smirking, soon after i passed out from exhaustion
that was a few days ago, now billie follows me everywhere i go, she even waits outside of the bathroom, she threatened to break the door down once because i took too long, if she has meetings i have to be there with her
i was sat on the bed while billie was in the bathroom finneas walked in and smiled ta me, i smiled back "wheres billie?" he asked sitting on the bed next to me, i nodded over the bathroom, billie walked out after a few minuets
"what do you want?" she asked sitting on the other side of me placing her hand on my thigh, it felt nice, and for some reason i got butterflies, i looked at her and smiled, she smiled back
"meeting, usual room for A" he said before standing up and walking out, billie stood up after a few minuets and pulled me up
we walked to the room, i held billies hand on the way there, i had to sit next to her while we were in there too
i felt uneasy in the room and edge my chair closer to billies, she saw and looked at me confused as she was talking to the guy in front of her, my chair eventually ended up right next to billies, eventually i ended up holding her hand under the table, she looked at me confused again, but kept hold of my hand, i played with the rings on her hand, which made her look down and smile at me
after the guy left it was just billie finneas and i left in the room, billie put her fee hand under my chin forcing me to look up at her "you seem to be warming up to me princess" she said smiling
"no, i'm not" i replied quietly
"are you sure" she said laughing taker her other hand away from mine, i pouted and pulled it back "it's getting late, we should go to bed" billie said standing up, i stood up and held her hand as we walked back to the bedroom
we walked into the bedroom and billie turned around to me "since you've been good, you can go into your own room, but it's going to be right next to mine, so i'll know if your doing anything" billie explained, i just nodded and waited for her to show me to the room
i got to my room and changed clothes, i climbed into the bed and pulled the covers up above my shoulders before turning onto my side, billie walked into the room to say good night and left, i closed my eyes and tried to sleep but i couldn't, i couldn't stop myself from thinking about billie, i was tossing and turning for about an hour before i decided to get up
i walked out of my room and bumped into someone, i fell backwards but they caught me, i looked to see claudia "why are you out of your room?" she asked looking over me
"i was going to billies room" i said letting pulling myself from her grasp
"mhm, yeah i don't believe you" she said grabbing my hand and walking over to billies room, she knocked on the door a few seconds later billie opened the door
"y/n, why are yo out of bed?" billie asked looking angry "did you catch her trying to do anything?" she asked claudia who had finally let go of my hand
"well no, but she was out of bed" claudia answered
"then why is she here?" billie asked confused
"she said she was going to your room" claudia answered, billie looked at me, i smiled at her awkwardly before she pulled me into her room and said goodnight to claudia
billie closed the door and stared at me with her arms crossed "so you really just wanted to e in here with me, nothing else?" she asked smirking, i nodded
"i got used to sleeping with someone in the same bed as me. i still don't like you" i said looking at her, she just nodded and walked over to the bed, i did the same, billie climbed into the bed and i got in from the other side, billie turned to face me and closed her eyes, i moved slightly closer to her and turned on my side, so i was facing billie, i soon fell asleep
i woke up the next morning to the feeling of someone moving, i reached out to where billie was laying and caught the back of her shirt i opened my eyes to see billie sat up, she looked back at me "go back to sleep y/n" she whispered
"don't leave" i whispered pulling on her shirt slightly, billie smiled and sighed
" i have to go talk with someone, i'll be back soon though princess" she whispered turning around and kissing me on the forehead
"can i come with you?" i asked with my hand still holding onto her shirt, billie stayed quiet for a while
"sure, make sure you grab a blanket, it's still early and you look tired" she said standing up, i got up and grabbed a thin blanket from the closet, billie changed into a suit, i didn't bother changing
we walked into the room, finneas was stood that the door as we walked in, it was the room i was in when i arrived, billie walked over to the couch, i followed and sat next to her, she pulled my head gently down into her lap, she took the blanket from my hands and put it over me, i closed my eyes, soon after i heard someone walk in
the conversation was boring, they kept talking about money and work and transport, then i heard my name said
"that y/n?"
"yeah, why?"
"nothing, just glad you finally got her"
i heard them laugh, i moved around a bit to get comfortable again, i felt billies hand go to my stomach, i quickly put my hand out and took a hold of it
"what's up with her, usually they'd be hating you "
"stockholm syndrome" i heard them both laugh once more
