Ruby's P.O.V
"Ruby" I snap out of my zone and look at Diego "The movie's finished now" I look back at the screen to see the credits rolling "Would you like something to eat?" I glance at Mateo and realise I'm still on his lap.
I stand up "No. I'm going to bed" As I walk Ignacio speaks "It's only half six" I don't stop walking as I reply "I've got to train tomorrow so I need an early rest" No one says anything.
Entering my room the broken recorder captures my eyes. There's strange white engravings at the bottom end of the recorder, I pick it up. Reading the tiny engravings, my hands shake from anger.

I can't believe it. Those fuckers went so low to make a fake recording to make me believe that they were using me. I can't believe I doubted them, doubted Sebastian and Julian. I knew something was off but I had let my emotions get the best of me. .
I'm fucking out of here. Storming out of the room I jog downstairs "Are you ok Ruby?" As soon as my eyes met Javiers I punch him as hard as I can then continue making my way out of here "What the fuck was that for!? Where are you going? Guys!" I speed up and yank the door open.
When I take my first step out of here I'm roughly pulled back by a pair of arms that wrap around my torso. My back collides against a hard chest "Where are you going mi flor?" My fists clench "Mateo. Get the fuck off me".
Without notice I slam my foot on top of his and jab the side of his face with my elbow "Ah!" Quickly I remove myself from his arms and as fast as I can before he manages to defend himself I give him an uppercut and kick him in the balls.
He drops to the floor and grunts. Walking away I slam the door behind me, walking turns into jogging, jogging turns into running, running turns to bolting the fuck out of here.
I can't fucking believe it. Why would they go so far to keep me here? Why would they do something so disgusting? Manipulating me at my most vulnerable state. I can't get a fucking break.
I make my way into a street and I stop a pedestrian " Hi I was wondering if you can tell me where I am?" She looks at me strangely and points to something behind her. My eyes set on a sign. Oxford. Thank God I'm back, I need to get to Erin.
"Can you call a taxi for me please? I don't have my phone on me" I know Erin can pay for me. She nods and gives me a weird look, after the call she says "It'll be here in five" I thank her and she walks away. Looking around anxiety starts to creep up on me.
There's no sign of them thank god, time feels like it's going on for so long. I beam with joy when a taxi pulls up, as I jog to go in my eyes notice a man running through the street. Diego. He frantically looks around but I quickly hop in before he sets his eyes on me.
Closing the door I give the driver my address. Looking away from the window as the car drives by him, my right leg bounces up and down and I play with my fingers. After a slow painful ride he stops outside my house.
"Do you mind waiting for a minute I left my purse in here" He looks at me strangely "Fine but be quick" I nod and get out of the car jogging to the front door I bang on it repeatedly, the door opens and I see Warren looking at me in surprise "Ruby what are you doing here-" Interrupting him.
"I'm really sorry I'll explain as quick as I can I just need some money to pay the driver it's only fifteen quid please" Without hesitation he pulls out his wallet and gives me the money, racing to the driver I hand him the money and quickly walk back to Warren.
He opens the door wider for me to enter "What's going on?" The sound of heels hitting the floor takes my attention, Erin looks at me with surprise "Ruby" Glancing between the two of them "I need your help" Warren puts his hand on my shoulder "Of course, just tell us what it is.
