Rhea's POV


"AUSTIN, BRANDON, JACE!!!!!!!" Jake screamed happily. I smiled.

"What? Is Rhea okay?" Brandon asked, worried. Awe.

"Yes! She's fine. We're all gonna play a game." I loved Jake's enthusiasm. "What game?!" Austin screamed like a kid. "Well... i made it up... it doesn't have a name... but we're all against each other and we have to capture Rhea." He looked at me and grinned at me evilly. "She get's 2 minutes to hide somewhere in the house, and then we have to look for her and try to steal them off each other, and we can team up to help each other." He explained looking at me the whole time. Hmm...

"Okay... but wouldn't it be better if we had more people?" Brandon questioned looking at Jake with a strange face. "Hmmm..." Jake put on a thinking face. "YES!" He screamed at last, making everyone jump. "We can get Ash, Nova and Josh over!"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Rhea, this is Nova, Ash and Josh." Jake introduced everyone as they walked through the door. "Hi!" They all said in unison, and smiled at me happily. Nova was quite tall, maybe around 6'1, had blue dyed hair in a Mohawk which suited him well, he wore black joggers as well as the other 2 boys, and a white t-shirt. Ash was a little smaller than Nova, but not by much. He looked around 5'11, and wore the black joggers and a black tank top, and had short black hair. Josh looked around the same height as Nova, had white short dyed hair, that was spiked up with gel, and wore a light green t-shirt.

"Okay, so you're all against each other and you have to get Rhea, and keep her. Rhea's allowed to escape and people can steal her off you, but you've got to try and keep her. You can team up with each other to get her, but only one person can win." Jake explained the rules to everyone. "The person who has her at the end of 2 hours wins. I'll set a timer on the alarm so everyone will know who's won. Rhea you can win by escaping everyone and not being caught by the end." Jake explained, looking at me at the end. "You've got 2 minutes to hide from......... now." He set the 2 minute timer off on his phone and i ran off through the corridor, up the stairs and to Brandon's room. I swung open the door, into his walk in closet, and hid in the farthest corner, behind all his t-shirts.

I waited for a while, before hearing footsteps coming up the stairs, and the door squeak open. I held back a giggle. "Rheaaaa?" I heard Jake's voice stretch out my name. I held my breath, trying not to laugh.

I saw light flood into the pitch black room, and ducked my head down. "Rhea, i can smell you." Jake said in a posh voice. I burst out laughing.

"Shit!" I cursed under my breath, as Jake grabbed my wrist and pulled me out. He was strangely on his own. "I'm gonna win." Jake lifted me up over his shoulder and carried me out into the corridor and into his room, locking the door behind him. He took a few scarfs out of his draw, and started tying my hands in front of my to the pole that held the canopy on his bed up, and sat me on the floor. "Isn't it cheating that you locked your door?" I asked, trying to get out of the scarf holding me there. No chance, he'd tied it too good. "No, all the guy's here can pick locks. He said shoving a scarf in my mouth and tying it behind my head, and then continued onto tying my feet together. I looked at him with wide eyes.

"Mhhhmhmmmhm!" My shouting for help came out muffled, just like he wanted, and he laughed evilly. "You wont escape."

Just then, the door burst open, and Austin, Jason and Ash flooded in the room. Ash and Austin grabbed Jake, while Jason undid my hands and my feet, and pulled my hands behind my back and held me there. I giggled into the scarf that was still in my mouth, and twisted in his grip, making it harder for him to hold me.

Austin and Ash brought Jake over to where i used to be, and tied his hands and feet exactly like i was, while he protested and tried to escape them. Ash then went over to Jake's draws, got out another scarf, shoved it in Jake's mouth and tied it round the back of his head. "Ha!" I choked out at Jake through the scarf. Everyone in the room laughed apart from Jake, who just scowled at me.

Jason pulled me round the corner, pushed me down the corridor and into his room. They locked their door behind us, as i struggled in his arms and broke free from his grip. I ran up to the door, unlocked it, and ran out into the corridor giggling as i slammed the door in their face, and threw the scarf out of my mouth onto the floor. I took off down the corridor, down the stairs and into the kitchen, where i came face to face with Josh and Nova. We all just stood there and looked at each other for a while, before Josh quickly put out his hand and grabbed me, and put his hand over my mouth and his free arm holding my hands behind my back. They were obviously planning but i just made things a lot easier for them.

I felt really uneasy and scared, i was hoping they'd each team up with someone one of the guys i knew like Ash did. "Hey, Rhea." Nova said evilly as he pulled out some clingfilm from the cupboard and started wrapping it round my body with joshes help. "Uhm, hey." I gave him a strange look because of his weird choice of... I don't even know what to call it.

After he had finished, he stood back and looked at me from a distance, obviously pleased with his work of art. I wiggled, and tried to break the clingfilm, but he had put so much round me that it was too strong to break out of. I looked at him as he took out some duct tape and placed it over my mouth, and wrapped it round the back of my head, and then wrapped it round and round about 5 times to make sure i couldn't get it off or speak.

Josh then picked me up, and threw me over his shoulder, and carried me up the stairs quietly and into Austin's room, i'm guessing, as i'd been in everyone else's room and this room was new. Nova locked the door behind us, as Josh laid me on the bed. I wiggled, and rolled myself off the bed, trying to make a big enough bang for someone else to come and get me, as i didn't feel safe with them or comfortable.

Josh picked me up and looked at me with his green eyes as he laid me back on the bed. "Hey, we're not gonna hurt you, it's just a game. I promise." He smiled at me sweetly. I relaxed a little.

Suddenly we heard a crash come from outside the window, and shouting coming from one of the rooms in the corridor. "Shit." Nova cursed under his breath. "Ash and Jason again." They both ran to the door. "Stay here." They both said in unison as they walked out the door. I tried to shout after them to let me out but it just came out in muffles.

I laid on my back waiting and listening for something to happen. All i could hear was shouting and smashing.

I stared at the door, waiting for something to happen.

I watched with wide eyes as it slowly creaked open.

I looked as soon as i had a view outside... but nobody was there. I sighed in annoyance, and sat up, leaving the clingfilm on the bed.

I got up and walked to the door, snapping the duct tape off my face, and peered round the corner. Nobody was there. I shut the door, turned back round and looked at the bed. The clingfilm was still there, with a perfect tear down the middle.

I stood there for a while and stared at it.

"What?" I mumbled under my breath.

What?
