Kidnapped

Chapter 14: Wednesdays Secrets

Karl POV

Somehow I managed to get some sleep last night. I was probably tired from not getting much sleep the night before.

We all slept at Alex's last night like we planned but we all ended up falling asleep pretty fast. By the time I woke up this morning they had already gotten their things together.

I brush my teeth and wet my hair, quickly changing my clothes with the last set I had in my bag. I ran out of clean clothes which meant I had to return home tonight.

"Hurry up Karl we want to pick up some food" Nick says and I quickly grab my bag "Okay we can go" I follow them outside, getting into Clay's car.

He drove to the nearest place that sold breakfast sandwiches, ordering us all the same. Once we get the food we start eating it.

We sat in the school car park as we finished up, then getting out and walking towards the school. "Okay so we will see you at lunch, hopefully we wont be late this time" Clay gives me a smile and Nick gives me a hug. Alex waving.

I simply smile in response and walk off in the direction of my first and only class of the day. This was going to be one of the longest lessons of my life.

The class was pretty empty once again because of football practise. Its only like this once a week and I'm still trying to decide whether I hate it or prefer it.

I was watching the clock, probably the worst thing I could do as it made time move a lot slower. Anxiety built inside me the longer I sat there.

The bell rang. One whole hour had passed and now I wished it hadn't. My stomach churned but I hurried my way out, finding my way to the front gate.

It wasn't long before I saw what looked like Greg running towards me. As he got closer I could tell it was him. "So where are we going?" I ask and he doesn't hesitate to take my sleeve of my hoodie and drag me along side me.

I followed him for a little while until we started to get too far. I didn't feel comfortable anymore. I stopped in my tracks making Greg stop and look back at me.

"I don't want to go any further until you give me some answers " I say, slightly out of breath from all the running.

He goes into my bag and takes out a pen and the notebook, writing in bigger letters than usual.

I got us a hotel room for a couple nights, I swear you'll get all the answers you've ever wanted if you go there with me. I promise your safe but I'm NOT.

I look up from the book unsure. Why would he get a hotel room? Thats such an unusual thing to do. Everything in me was telling me to go back but my heart said differently.

"Lead the way" I say with a faint smile, following him once again. By now we must've been a good 30-40 minutes away from the school.

Eventually we arrived, he claimed our room key and we found the door, unlocking it and walking inside. I sat down on the edge of the bed, throwing my things to the side as he locked the door again.

"Answers now" I say, handing him the book and pen again. He takes a moment before finally writing on it.

I need you to stay calm Karl, Please don't freak

I look at him confused "Why would I freak out?" I ask, waiting for him to write.

Im about to change everything for you

"What?" I ask, trying to hand him the book back but he pushes it away, instead turning on the main light and shutting the curtains. "Greg just tell me why you had Georges file this is really unnecessary"

He takes off his hood, followed by his beanie, throwing them off to the side. He pulls down his mask and uses one of his hands to brush his hair upwards revealing all of his face. It wasn't until he finally spoke that I put all the pieces together.

"H-hi Karl.." He stutters, his British accent still as thick as it was before. My hands were shaking and I didn't know how to react.

"George?" I finally let out, tears spilling out of my eyes as I took in the sight of him. He simply nodded.

"Can I- Can I hug you?" I ask, wiping my tears. He holds out his arms and I waste no time in hugging him.

We stayed hugging for a while, that was until my phone started buzzing. I looked and saw a missed call from my mum. "What do I tell my mum? I don't want to keep lying to everyone" I look over to George.

"Tell her your with Sapnap or something" he says and I smile, It had been ages since I last heard that name. "Alright I will" I start typing out the message.

"I want one!" Nick pouted as we walked past the section of pandas in the zoo. "Nick this isn't a gift shop, pandas would be a bad pet" Karl added. "They're cool, I'd adopt one" Nick says smiling. "Yeah okay pandas" George mocks and Clay laughs "I think you just found your name for Nick George" Clay smiles. "It's a little boring isn't it?" George asks and Clay ponders for a moment.

"What if you just flip it around make it Sapnap?" Clay suggests and George laughs. "Pandas backwards is Sadnap idiot" "I like Sapnap" Karl adds and George rolls his eyes. "Of course you do" He smirks but then agreeing. "Sapnap it is"
