Caught

Chapter 7

Hope you enjoy chapter 7.

I'm blinded by the light when I turn to see Nick walking down the basement steps. If only I could get out of this stupid cage and get free, but clearly that's not going to happen. 

"Come on." He says after he unlocks the cage and pulls me out.

"What are we doing?" I ask.

"You're going to have to get clean at some point, it's been days since your last shower." He did have a point. It's been a couple weeks since I've gotten here and I was beginning to smell. 

I was mostly confused as to why he's letting me bathe because I'm pretty sure people aren't this nice to the ones they've captured.

"I don't usually do this but I'm making an exception for you." 

"You've had other girls?" That was a stupid question.

"Yes, but we haven't had a girl that's like you." He smiles.

He leads me up another flight of stairs that lead to a second floor before taking me to a bathroom. Surprisingly, the bathroom is really clean, almost as if no one has used it at all.

"What are you doing?" I ask when he starts to try and pull my shirt off.

"Undressing you." He says.

"I can do it myself you know. I'm not four." He bites the lower corner of his lip.

"Right. Sorry."

He waits for me to take off my clothes not taking the hint I don't want him looking at me.

"Could you um not look please?" I ask as kindly as I could. He turns around and I take the opportunity to undress and step into the shower. 

I turn the water on and my body relaxes as the hot water runs down me. I quickly clean myself before staying under the water because who knows how long it'll be until I can shower next.

The curtain to the shower is slightly pulled back and in the mirror I can see him staring at the tub waiting for me. My stomach drops and I bite my lip when we make eye contact through the mirror. 

"You were staring at me." He says through the curtain.

"N-no I wasn't." I don't know why I was shaking but I was.

I jump a little when he quickly pulls the curtain back and looks at me.

"Turn the water off." He speaks. I do as told and remain where I am, suddenly cold as my body is exposed to the air.

He looks at me before crashing his lips into mine. I was so shocked and didn't know what to do so I just stood there.

He pulls back before staring into my eyes again. I stay there silently still shocked by what just happened.

"I'm sorry. I had to." He bites his lip as his eyes scan my body.

"Can I have a towel?" I ask. I just want to cover myself up to stop him from looking at me.

"Yeah, sorry." He hands me a towel and I wrap myself in it.

"If I leave, can I trust you to stay here?" He soon asks.

"Uh, sure." I say wondering what he needs to go get.

"Don't worry I'm just going to get you some clothes." He smiles. I swear this guy is just too nice to be a kidnapper.

When he leaves I start thinking. Thinking about my family and Tyler. I wonder what they're doing. Do they miss me? I mean they have to right, but at the same time I don't know. I hope they haven't moved on and forgot about me.

"OK here we go. Fresh set of clothes." I wipe away the tears that fell from my eyes.

I put the clothes on and that's when I started to think more. I collapsed to the ground crying my eyes out. I want to go home. I want my family. I want Tyler.

"Anna don't cry. Everything's going to be alright."  Nick says leaning down next to me. I tackle him, getting on top of him and pin him down.

"Everything is not going to be alright!" I sob. "I want my family!" As I'm crying, I glare at him and that's when I punch him hard across the face. He winces in pain as my fist collides with his jaw. I crawl over to a corner and hug my knees, my sobs being muffled by arms.

"Don't touch me!" I scream at Nick as he tries to pick me up. He immediately pulls back and I can feel him staring at me. I soon hear him walk away before sitting down, probably blocking the door. 

I was crying for so long I began to get really tired. I didn't even object when I felt Nick pick me up. It was so cold in the basement that I started to shake. He placed me down on the floor then soon came back. It caught me off guard when he put a blanket over me. Does Nick actually care about me? I mean sure he kissed me, but I felt that was only because he was standing in front of me while I was naked.

"Goodnight Anna." He whispers to me. He then closes the cage before walking up the stairs and closing the basement door. After that I just passed out.
