This story is about Milo and Ophelia who have known each other since childhood. As they become teens Milo falls in love with Ophelia. One day Milo mysteriously disappears.and Ophelia stumbles on something she shouldn't and a dark past is brought to...
I'm a trader to my gang I'm breaking the number one rule, never join the hostages. The consequences are lethal, when I was sold to the gang I was forced to become a part of a life I never wanted. I wanted to be a doctor as a child I wanted to help people now I have my chance and I'm not going to back down because I'm nervous.
The only thing my mother ever taught me was if you're going down go, down as someone people will not just remember, but praise. I live by that I will sacrifice myself if it means two precious lives are saved. They have so much to live for each other, their mothers, their future and so much more.
I know that I'm only 8 years older than them but a lot can happen in eight years. Lives can start and end, tragedy can strike, and miracles can happen. You can hit rock bottom then skyrocket to the top in that amount of time. I'm making a promise to myself that both Milo and Ophelia will make it off this ship with both their lives.
As I'm sitting on one of the many shipping containers I'm pulled from my thoughts when I'm yanked from behind. "Who in the actual hell do you think you are?!" I yell wail trying to wiggle free from the strong familiar grasp that's holding me by the waist.
The boy who only looks slightly older than me whispers in an annoyed tone "shut up Bellaaaa, you really messed up and he'll have your neck for it."
Shut up? Rude at least if he's going to get someone to bring me to his office they could be nice. His voice sounds familiar, I look down at him and see his pale white hands. Then it clicks Kegan, the boy I've known since before I was sold.
I scream as loud as I can, it scared Kegan enough to drop me and I turn to look at his face. It confirms that I thought he had the same green eyes, freckles, light brown curly hair, and pale complexion.

Although now he has tattoos which if I do say so myself are pretty hot.
He is wearing a grey long sleeve shirt, black pants, and black shoes he has his shirt rolled up enough so I can see a few of his tattoos peeking out.

When our eyes meet we examine each other faces I can tell he's nervous about something. I haven't seen him before I was sold I break the silence getting straight to the point. "Kegan?" I graded my chest acting as if my heart hurt "is that you?" I say in a joking tone trying to lighten his mood. He cracks a tight line smile
Kagan's POV
"Is that you?" Bella asks in a sarcastic tone. I give a tight line smile to her sarcasm.
Bella and I don't necessarily get along that well. We've known each other ever since we were 5 years old, but we aren't friends. We are more like enemies most people would say. I can't say I haven't had feelings for her when we were younger... and still, now, I think.
It's complicated.
Bella is wearing baggy shorts with a belt, brown converse high-top shoes, a dusty green bikini top, brown oversized flannel, a black bandana wrapped around her wrist, and a pair of sunglasses on the top of her head.

I notice that she is also wearing the necklace I gave her when we were younger. I smirk and jokingly say "What is that?" moving my hand to grab the necklace. She blushes a little and pushes my hand out of the way and turns around to hide the necklace.
"Nothing. It's just a necklace I got from a... uh, my... mom," she says sounding a little flustered, and quickly turns around and walks past me bumping my shoulder. "Ow," I say jokingly.
I can't say I've never had feelings towards her, I mean how can you not, she's intelligent, funny, compassionate, caring... beautiful.
Shut up dude, she is your enemy! Snap out of it! My conscience tells me.
I run to catch up to her and start walking at her pace. "What are you doing? you're supposed to be on watch duty!" she whispers shouts at me. "Damn, is that any way to treat your best friend you haven't seen in 9 years?" I say in a sarcastic tone.
"You are not my friend, just because we've known each other for a long time doesn't mean that you and I are on good terms. You're just a narcissist who thinks everyone wants to be with you and wants to hang out with you when it's the exact opposite," she says harshly. Ouch.
I continue to walk with her not really knowing what to respond with to that.
"What were you doing with the hostages? We aren't supposed to talk to them." I told her. "Why do you care?" she asks.
"Because I know you and I don't want you to do something that you might regret."
"Ok, first of all, you do not know me, and second of all, what will I regret?"
"I know you are trying to help them, and I don't want you to get into trouble because the consequences are lethal, and I don't want you to die," I whisper so no one else can hear.
"Aww, you care about me. News flash I'm not interested," she says and picks up the pace so she can get away from me. I grab her by the waist and bring her into a supply closet. "Ow, stop that," she yells. I cover her mouth so she doesn't bring attention to us. We get into the closet and I let go.
"What the hell? Aw did I hurt your ego?" she says as she tries to push past me to get out. "Listen, I know what you are doing with Milo and Ophelia," I tell her harshly.
Bella's POV
"Listen, I know what you are doing with Milo and Ophelia," he says harshly. I start to panic because I don't want him to go tell Jack about me helping them. I decide to play dumb "I don't know what you're talking about. Now, will you please let me out?!" I yell. "NO, I'm not letting you out till you tell me everything!" Kegan demands.
He put his left hand on the wall behind my head I see his ring shine In the dim light.
Oh my God, he still has it, the ring I got him at the fair on one of the rings toss games.
Hot--- shut up
"So... How long will we be in here?"
