COMPLICATED

11. No title

it has been 40 minutes since Alec called and they are not here yet. We are getting scared by the second, the whole place is silent and we are scared of making any sound.

suddenly there is a bang at the door and we both jump in fear. “who could it be?” I whisper and Danny mouths

“no idea.”

“let it be the boys.” I pray
Whoever is on the other side of the door keeps banging and my heart is on my mouth right now ready to pop out.

“Hey, munchkin open up.” Alec yells and we both heave a sigh of releaf.
Danny walks to the door and she pushes the cardboard away from the door before she opens the door.

“You're assholes.” I cuss rolling my eyes when they walk in.

“why?” Curtis glares

“was it hard for you to say it's you guys.. do you know how you freaks scared the hell out of us?”

Jake chuckles draping his hand around Danny.

“what?” I ask confused.

He turns to Alec. “Bro, there is no difference between you and your girlfriend.”

“I'm not sassy neither I'm I his girlfriend.” I say.

“yeah whatever.” he scoffs.

“where is zac?” Danny asks.

“He took Kassie to the hospital, I think she's having the baby.” Jake says on a relaxed tone.

“what?!” Danny gaps. “ and nobody cared to tell me! I should be with her right now.”

“come on baby.” Jake looks her like she is missing the whole point. “ciara and Sam are with her.. they know that your sister needs you and you can't be in two places at the same time.”

“Jake is right munchkin.” Alec speaks for the first time since he came in.

“so.” I start “what is happening”

“why?” Curtis asks oblivious of everything.

“we were barricading the door for no reason?!”

“we didn't ask you to barricade the door.” that is Alec.

“well, you said that we shouldn't let anyone in.” Danny is crissing her eyebrows. “To me there is no difference.”
*******
it's now morning and I'm alone, the guys have gone to school, they left assuring me that I'm safe. There was nothing to be scared about yesternight, they were just being extra causious, it's what they called it.

my Bullet wound is healing quite faster and I'm tempted to go and find something to do, the me sitting and lying around is really boring and one day feels like forever.

There is a knock at the door and I jump a little, with Damian on my tail I'm becoming really scared alot. I mean I won't be surprised if he broke the door and walked in right now. he is lucifer himself.

The door is knocked again bringing me back to my senses and reminding me that there is someone at the door. “come in.” I say sitting up and placing the pillow on my back.

I smile when I see Sam walking in and Ciara following, I had really missed there sassy asses “what?!” Sam starts morkingly. “we are straight you know.”

“what?!.” I ask a little confused.

“you are smiling wildly it's like you have a crush on one of us.” Ciara explains and it sinks in.

my eyes go wide. “what? eeew that's gross. I'm not into girls.” I say crissing my eyebrows in disgust and their faces turns to a breathtaking smile.

“we were just kidding.” Sam laughs. “get a sense of humor girl.”

“we know that you are into my brother.” Ciara points out flopping on the bed landing her butt on my leg.

“ouch!” I yell when pain slashes through my leg.

“ooh shit, sorry.” she is quick to apologize.

“I'm not into Alec.” I say ignoring her apology.

“Then, tell us what is going on between you two.” Sam says without looking my way.

“apart from him being a pain in my ass? ” I ask feigning obliviousness. when Sam narrows her eyes I continue “will all of you just stop talking to me about that douchbag for once, it's getting boring you know.”

“why are you even pissed?” Ciara observes.

“I'm not pissed, I'm in pain. you broke my bone.”

“Are you trying to imply that I'm fat!?” she fires back.

“hey chill okay, I dint mean that.”

“something is pissing you off Gabby, what is it?” Sam asks.

“okay fine, I hate that Alec is harsh with me and sometimes, sweet to me. why is he giving me mixed reactions.” I say truthfully. “one thing that I know for sure is that he hates my guts, he doesn't have to sugarcoat it.”

“He doesn't hate you.” Ciara says in a low tone and I glare at her.

“how do you even...”

she cuts me midsentence. “if someone know Alec more than anybody else, it's me.” she says “he cares just give him time, he is not used to this.”

“yeah whatever.” I say rolling my eyes.
my phone on the nightstand chimes and I reach for it as an anonymous message pops on the screen.

you might wanna keep your friends alive.
my heartbeat accelerates and Sam looks at me with urgency.

“what's up?”

“I think he knows where I am.”

“who? Damian?” that is Ciara.

“yeah.” I say in a low tone. “I think I should just go back home and prevent bloodshed and even worse people dying.” I say with a frown

“there is no way you are doing that.” Sam is not having that.

“he is threatening to hurt you guys, and you people have been the best thing that has ever happened to me in my wild complicated life”

Ciara stands to open the door when someone knocks. we tend to have a habit of locking the door since we don't want Damian or one of his men walking in here and dragging my ass with him.

Danny walks in with a huge smile followed by Jake who hugs Ciara briefly after Danny.

This two are inseparable.

They look good together though.

“hey, you.” Danny laughs when I roll my eyes at a sassy comment Jake made about me.

“Hey.” I say when she leans in to kiss my forehead. “you're happy” I observe.

“we have some good news.”

“yeah?”

“you are finally getting out of here.” she says with a wide grin and I smile despite myself.

Jake seems to notice my sudden change of mood “everything okay?”

“Damian knows....”
before I finish the sentence a loud bang is heard from outside and a fire alarm goes off.
