Clementines pov: I wake up to see my mother grabbing all my stuff from drawers I shoot up scrunching my eyebrows. "W-what's going on" my voice raspy and quiet. She turns to me teary eyed trying to hold back her sobs. "Mom what's happening?!" I raise my voice a little she just keeps on packing up my stuff.
"Honey get showered and ready you're going somewhere" she seems panicked and rushed. I don't think I should be asking questions and should just get in the shower. My bathroom is dirty,quiet small but I hop in the shower wash my hair and my body and now I smell like vanilla. I scrunch my hair with a towel I like to let it air dry and do my skincare. My mom has finished packing up my stuff "are we going on vacation or something" I'm kinda getting excited.
"I mean yes you kinda are" she's scared why is she scared? "Why do you seem scared?" I stop what I'm doing turning to her. She ignores me "mom where am I going." I throw on black sweatpants and a white t-shirt than some white socks.

Outfit ^
And run downstairs my mom yelling at me to come back. Once I get downstairs I see my douche dad talking to some tall man. "What is this?" I pointing my finger at both of them angrily. The guys turns to me he's tall,brown hair,tanned skin. He's quite handsome sharp jaw,grey eyes he's handsome but not handsome enough for me to stop what I'm doing. "Clem, go finish getting ready" I roll my eyes and scoff "where and I going mom won't tell me so you have to" I cross my arm raising my eyebrows looking back and forth from the handsome man and my dad.
"Just finish getting ready clementine!" My dad yells at me and starts walking towards me. I flinch before turning around and scurrying away back to my room. My mom walks out with my suitcase looking guilty as she should "grab any extra things you want" she says quietly. "Nobody ever wanted me in this frickin family anyways!" I yell making sure they heard.
I grab my body wash and shampoos making sure to also grab my perfume collection. The. I grab my blanket from when I was a baby it's the only thing I remember from that trashy childhood. Well actually I don't remember anything from my childhood but that must mean it wasn't to unforgettable. I walk down with my backpack I also ended up grabbing my books also and I have a lot so their in a duffel bag on my shoulder.
I take one glance at my mom and dad giving them a sarcastic smile before the guards starting leading me out with handsome man. They touch my back and I flinch lighting speeding up my pace. I get into the car and handsome man sits next to me. "I need to check the bags" I laugh a little and he looks at me raising his eyebrows. "You think I'm going to pull out a gun on you?" I grin at his clear annoyance. He can't check my suitcase but he checks my backpack.
Then the duffel bag "jeez." He says going through my books "what?" I look in the bag with him expecting something. "Why so many books?" He's done searching and zips it back up. "I like to read!" He doesn't respond or go "Mm" he just looks at his phone. I start making noises with my mouth trying to back the silence. Like smacking my lips together making a 'pop' sound or clicking my tongue.
He finally turns to me irritated "can you stop" wow okay rude "are we almost their this is awkward and boring" I slump down in my chair. "Go on your phone or something" he says shaking his head looking out the window. "Don't have one I'll just read" I look for my duffel bag trying to find my tbr list (to be read) and I found one it looks promising. I only read romance books this one is the love hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood. "I'm so excited to read this I've already read love on the brain which is also by this author and lemme tell you that was crazy if you're planning to read it tell me now because it is some crazy-".
I cut myself off to see him totally tuning me out and doing something on my phone. "Never mind then" I mumble and we actually finally get there. When I tell you my jaw dropped when I saw this house it's freaking incredible. Compared to my one story,been there since 1960's,old,rustic house lemme tell you it's nice nice. Imagine like a castle nice yea I've already wanted to be a princess this is my vibe.
"Hurry up" he grunts to me I push my lips together from refrain from saying anything to bad. "You don't seem to happy?" I look up at his and I swear I'm not short at all I'm like 5'7 he's just like huge he could be like a giant or something. "I'm not" yes I mean I got that much but I just wanna know why. "Is it me?" I really hope not but I'm guessing so I don't like making people upset even if I don't know what I did. He doesn't answer so I'm taking it as a yes.
"Well last time I check I was the one getting kidnapped so shouldn't I be unhappy" I mean honestly I'm a little scared but I had nothing for me there so might as well die in this sick castle. He just ignores me and opens the door but of course not for me just for himself making me push it open with my shoulder since my hands are full. "Oh thank you!" Im being sarcastic but I'm not sure he got that fact because he said "you're welcome" like is he really that arrogant.
The body guards try to take my bags but I decline I'm a big girl I can handle this myself. I have no idea where handsome man is I really need to know his name. "Excuse me ma'am can we show you to your room" the bodyguard behind says motioning up the enormous stairs. I snort "you make me sound old call me Clem please" I follow them up the stairs still refusing for them to carry my bags.
We get into my room and it's quite cozy but big I need to decorate it it's kinda bland I have all my books and their are book cases and I have vines and the comfiest bedding and all my photos for a photo wall and some fairy lights. This rooms gonna but littttt "we have a party tonight" I hear a deep voice from behind me it's handsome man. "Well shouldn't I know your name first" I grin a little.
He doesn't even crack a smile he's such a prude my gosh. "Arlo, Arlo Warner" he turns leaving my bedroom. Well at least I brought my thousands of dresses I got from working long hours. I go through my dresses and just pick out a black long dress with a slit in it and it makes my boobs look great honestly. I do my makeup it's looks quite amazing I put my hair up in a half up half down with a butterfly clip.
I grab my heels from my suitcase and might I say I look fine as heck.
