Second Guessing

Chapter 10

It was just past nine when I arrived at the gang's house. I wasn't really sure what Vanoss meant by "early" so I played it safe by coming around this time. I'm pretty sure they're all either sleeping or trying to look for Diana. But too bad for them, they'll never find her.

Before I came here, I made a detour to the old house and dropped off some food, water and a change of clothes for Diana, who was fast asleep on the couch when I went there.

I hopped out the car, walked to the door and knocked a few times. A few moments later the door opened and I was welcomed by Terroriser. It wasn't really a welcome since I could feel the suspicion and dislike coming off of him.

"Terroriser." I greeted.

"Carmen." He said and opened the door wider so I could walk in. It seemed like he was forced to when he did that.

I walked into the living room to see everyone, except for Vanoss, all looking exhausted. I noticed on the side of Moo's head had a cut there from when I pistol-whipped him.

"Did you guys just come back or something?" I asked and sat next to Lui on one of the couches.

"No, we just haven't slept yet." Lui said.

"How come?" They all looked at Moo to explain it. All their eyes had some anger in there.

"We held a girl hostage here and she escaped." Moo said, his voice sounding more sad than angry.

"Wait, you guys held a girl here against her will?" I asked all of them. There was a pause until they all said yes in unison. This made me sorta pissed since they didn't seem too guilty about it, except for Moo who was trying to hide the sadness on his face. "So you guys stayed up to try and find her?"

"Yup." They all said.

"Did the person leave anything behind?" I then asked.

"Nope. His face was covered and he knocked me out before I could do anything." Moo said.

I like how Moo assumed it was a guy who took her I thought as silence fell upon everyone after Moo spoke.

Now time to get the gang to not look for Diana anymore.

"I don't think you guys should look for her any longer." I said, breaking the silence. This got a shock reaction from the crew.

"And why should we listen to you?" Terroriser spat, sorta speaking on behalf of the crew.

"I just think that you guys are wasting your time looking for someone who's probably gone by now. And since Moo didn't know who the person was and the fact that you guys don't know where to look, we can't really do anything." I explained. More silence fell across the room after I said that.

"Carmen's right." I heard behind me. I turned around to see Vanoss standing in the entrance of the hallway that led to their rooms, with an impressed look on his face." But for now, we all just need to some rest and we'll speak later about it." Vanoss said. All the boys stood up and all walked into the hallway and into their rooms. Vanoss moved out the way and made his way to me. As he did, I stood up.

"I think you need to rest too." I told him, tilting my head slightly up since he was taller than me." Just call me when you guys are up." I said. I was about to start walking until he grabbed my upper arm, making me turn around. We were closer now and I surprisingly didn't mind or step back.

"How can I do that when I don't even have your number?" He asked with an amused looked on his face.

"Oh right." I said and blushed. We then exchanged our numbers." Cool, I'll see you later." I said and started leaving.
