Unwanted prisoner

1: A New Start

~Eleanor~

HOLY SHIT-
I knew he was rich but not this rich.
Bro why haven't I come here sooner.. oh yeah that's right he abandoned me and now I have to live with him because the family I did live is now dead.

It's giving Elena Gilbert...LET ME TELL YOU
I am not a crybaby so don't even start.

The driver seems nice.. he even opened the door for me and said good morning.
I made a joke about how my dad sounds like Pablo Escobar.. he didn't laugh.. but I know I saw a smirk.

"Welcome Eleanor this is where you will be living from now on. I'll bring in your bags, the maid will escort you to your room."
The driver pulls open my door and gestures his hand to the front door.

I enter the house. Cough* cough* sorry mansion and am greeted by a lovely lady.

"Good afternoon Eleanor, my name is Lucy, i am your personal maid. Your room is ready with your bags, if you'd like to follow me this way"

My jaw dropped.. YALL hear that PERSONAL MAID. You know I'm trying to not freak out right now but this place is making it very hard not to.

"If you need anything sweetie you can call for me" Lucy smiled at me and then closed the door leaving me in my room.

She called me sweetie, I already love her.

I am never getting off this bed. Never.
Looking around this room it's filled with little trinkets and gold accents. My bags sit in the corner ruining the vibe. I guess I'll start unpacking.

3 hours have gone bye and I've put all of my clothes into draws or on hangers, I've put some of my stuff on the dresser. There's books and a photo of Mum, Levi and I sitting on my bed side table. The bathroom is filled with all my toiletries and I am finally finished.

Well seeing as I have been so productive today I guess I'll take a nap.

———

8 hour later
Ok well I guess that was a littleeee longer than a nap..

The time is now 2:45am yes am.. it's pitch black and all I can hear is the cries from my stomach begging for food.
I make my way outside my bedroom and make sure not to place my feet fully on the floor so it doesn't leave a sound.
My sneaking out days be coming in clutch.

From what I can remember by the information I was given, is that i have to climb up a flight of stairs to get from the kitchen to my bedroom.

Surprisingly I made it to the kitchen without getting lost.
I try to open the fridge door but it won't budge. As I use all my strength to pull a loud voice booms out.
"How can I assist you?"

Okay what in the Elon Musk shit is this.
That scared the Heebie jeebies out of me.
I just want a snack Siri u need to chill love.

Siri is a very kind person robot I've had a whole conversation with her about this house and it's origins. I also figured out how to change Siri from saying the normal "How can I assist you?"  to "Hello you sexy humans how can I Assist you today?"
It sounds much better.

I picked out some strawberries from the fridge and GAHD damn these strawberries are bussin.

Seeing as I cannot get back to sleep I'm gonna do some exploring in my new humble abode.
I seriously should've been given a map.
I can see another level of stairs so I decide to make my way down them. The first thing I notice is how much colder it just got.

I wrap my arms around my chest and start moving down the hallway.
Theres a room that shines a dimly lit light around a far corner.
My curiosity gets the best of me and as I'm about to turn the a tall large man covered in tattoos leans against a steel door.
I gasp a little as I didn't expect to see anyone else down here. I hide myself and start tip toeing as quick as I can back to the stairs.

I'm too scared to look back so I just run.
You can now call me the flash.
I Lay in my bed panting out of breath while holding the blankets over my head like I'm hiding from a scary monster.
Whatever is down there I want to find out about.
It looked like he was guarding a cell... that's so weird.

———-

I'm woken up from Lucy voice calling out
"Knock knock, Are you decent?"
"Come in" I attempt to yell but croak out.
Lucy looked a little scared of me at first, but when she realised it was me and not a lion that should be in an AA meeting her face turned into a smile.

Lucy informs me that breakfast will be ready soon and there is someone who wants to meet me downstairs.

Maybe it's my dad. I don't know how to feel about all this, I mean I am grateful that he has taken me in but I'm not really excited to be here. All I want is to go back home and act like nothing has happened to them yet.
But that obviously can't happen.

After a quick shower I pick out a pair of shorts and a lace white tank top with tiny blue flowers over it.
I clip my hair up as I make my way downstairs. I am greeted with the smell of freshly cooked pancakes and maple syrup.

I move around the dining table hesitant on which chair to sit down at.
I settle at the one on the end.

A plate of pancakes are placed in front of me accompanied with syrup, berries, chocolate sauce, whip cream and so much more.
I'll make sure to give them a 5star rating.
As I'm about to dig in, the other side of the table makes a noise as someone sits down.

"Good morning" I greet them while stopping myself from cutting into the pancakes.
I have no clue who this man is.
"Good morning Eleanor....I'm your father by the way" he says over his chews which make me want to gag.
He sends me a small smile and I give him a small smile back.
This is so awkward..
What the hell am I supposed to do or say?

As I'm about to take my first bite my father says "Your mother and brother have a box of stuff left of their goods if you want to take a look I can get Lucy to put them in your room"
He almost sounds like he's reading off a script of a part he doesn't want to have.
"Oh yeah thanks, that'd be great"

After I finish my food I stand up and take my dishes over to the sink.
Lucy immediately rushes over and tells me she'll take care of it. I am ushered out of the kitchen not allowing me to do or say anything.

As I'm about to head back up into my room my father slightly yells out
"Eleanor would you like to come out to lunch with me, there's some people I'd like you to meet"
Random.. so random.
"Yeah that sounds nice.. I'll just go get ready" I am quite convincing with my tone. It'll be good to go out.
