Surf Trip//Jiara

Chapter 23

~Kie's pov~

I've been here for only three weeks and I already hate it.

The kids here are even worse than the ones at the kook academy, which I didn't know could be possible.

Every day is the same. They're taking us in nature so we can connect with ourselves and apparently with the mosquitoes. I think I fed almost half of them, or they fed themselves.

I tried to call the others but they don't let me take my phone and the inly call I'm allowed to make is to my parents. Which I would refuse to take if they wouldn't threaten me with sleeping outside. I did once and I couldn't fall asleep the whole night.

Today went almost normal. I went to breakfast and ate some kind of tasteless rice then we went outside again to some river that smelled like the trash from the back of the Wreck. Actually the trash smelled a little better.

I went back to my room so I can finally do nothing for around ten minutes but before I could relaise what was happening I felt a hand around my mouth and my hands being hold against my back.

"It's okay, I'm not gonna hurt you" I heard a familiar voice.

I tried to elbow him in the ribs but he only hold me tighter. I was pretty sure my heart never beat faster. The worst part was that it wasn't an unfamiliar touch.

"It's pointless to fight back, either you're coming with me either they're coming for both of us and your friends" he said.

I didn't say anything or moved for a few seconds hoping that he'll let me go. I tried to scan the room but there was nothing I could use to defend myself.

He finally took his hand away from my mouth but he was still holding my hands. I slowly moved to face him, letting him know that I'm not planning on doing anything. Not because I didn't want to but because I couldn't come up with anything.

"What are you doing here, Rafe" I said and he was having a stupid smirk on his face.

I never wanted to punch someone so bad.

"What? You're not exited to see me?" he asked but I didn't answer him so he countinued. "I'm here to take you out"

"I'd rather stay here than coming anywhere with you" I said taking one of my hands away from his grip.

"I'm afraid you can't choose, Kie" he said and I hated how my name sounded when he said it.

I can't belive I once used to love the way it sounded from him and now I can't even stand it.

"Or what? You'll murder me like you did to Peterkin?" I snapped and from the second I said this I knew I'd regret it.

And I did.

I suddenly felt his hands moving towards my arms and pushing me in the closest wall. I don't know if he meant to do it this hard or not cause his face didn't show any other emotion apart from anger and some kind of guilt.

"I did not murder her" he said but it mostly sounded like he was convincing himself.

I wanted to say something. I wanted to yell at him, hit him or anything but I stayed there like an idiot with my legs trembling and my heart beating even faster than earlier.

He let go of me and started to move around the room with his head in his hands. But I still didn't move from the wall. I was still there, in the same position, not being able to move.

"Listen Kiara, either you're coming with me on your own legs either I'll have to drag you out of here myself" he said.

"You said that they'd come for me and my friends, they who?" I asked and I hated the way my voice cracked while saying this.
