Shooting was most of it.

How to handle it, how to hold it properly, right words to say and even fighting.

You don't know how many times I kicked the dummy out of frustration only for it to fling backwards, come back and hit me in the face.

Damien just stood in the back, laughing.

Asshole.

I got better, I'm okay at fighting now, I've build up a little muscle on my arms.

That was 2 weeks ago though, Damien gave me this week to relax and next week I'm doing all the real stuff.

I can't go anywhere so I'm not really relaxing.

Damien instructed me to stay in the room, but when do I listen?

I saw Andrew earlier while having breakfast but he seemed busy, Kyle is probably not busy but I don't like him all that much. Damien is mowing the lawn...

Shocker right? I found out the men in this house, one of the three, mows the lawn because the maids are kind of old and do not have that much strength.

Also, they cut it because they dont trust the maids to cut their yard 'perfectly'.

Anyways, Damien is mowing the lawn and probably won't be much use.

I sigh and decide to see if Andrew is still busy.

Bursting in, without knocking I see two girls in short dresses, looking awfully bored, pillow fighting. They're not even trying to hit each other with force, they're basically tapping each other with the pillow.

As soon as they hear the door creak open, they stand straight and immediately start to giggle, hitting the pillows at each other.

"Uh.. Is Andrew here?"

The girls stop pillow fighting and look at me, the same bored look returning "Who are you?"

"Nova" I reply.

"Oh so you're Damien's girl" A girl with black wavy hair states.

I shrug. "I guess, where's Andrew?" I ask again.

"What's so special about you? Why did he pick you over us? We're much more... Full and prettier" The girl continues, placing her hands under her breasts, holding them.

"I did not want to be taken. First of all, I didn't volunteer to be kidnapped. He kidnapped me so it was kind of his decision. Maybe he's not into all the fake tits and asses you have" 

The other girl, raises a eyebrow, puts her pillow down and ignores me, questioning me more. "I heard you don't get hit for your mistakes, you can leave your room whenever and even had a good breakfast in the dining room with the leaders. You have a better chance of escaping this shithole than any of us and that's because you have the key. Damien Pierce. You don't deserve him."

"I'm not here for a fucking interview, tell me now, where the fuck is Andrew?"

"Don't raise your voice at me, little girl, we've been through one year of training and have much more muscle" They say.

True.

I try not to sound like a wuss and roll my eyes "Skanks!" I scream before shutting the door quickly behind me and running down the hallway.

What was I thinking? Putting on the brave act, I could've been dead by know!

I continue to run downstairs, wanting to go outside with Damien. I've felt a sense of comfort, safety, with him lately.

I don't really like it because of course, I'm not going to be with him forever. I still need to make a escape plan but until I make the escape plan, it's okay.

I run into the dining room, swing open the screen door, and run outside when something smacks against my forehead.

"Ugh" I huff.

Kyle is standing in front of me, palm placed on my forehead to keep me from walking further.

"Where are you supposed to be? I'm thinking hmm" Kyle gasps sarcastically "Oh! I know! Damien's room, go up now"

"No it's okay, Kyle, she's with me" Andrew appears in the doorway of the dining room, waving his hand towards him.

I smirk at Kyle and nod "I'm with Andrew, Kyle" I stick out my tongue at him. Kyle gives me the warning stare but chuckles slightly.

I walk out of the dining room with Andrew "Thank you" I whisper.

I stop walking and look at Andrew "But Kyle's probably right, I should go back up."

"No it's okay, I know it can get a little stuffy up there. Get a chance to breathe" 

"How come your girls don't get a chance to 'breathe'?" I question.

"Because, they're pillow fighting"

"They look instructed too"

He looks at me, confused.

"I went in, looking for you"

Andrew shook his head "Oh yeah?". He looked bothered and it was visible he was trying to keep himself together. "Don't do that ever again, Nova. When I want to see you I look for you. Never walk into my room, that's none of your business"

I roll my eyes and nod "Whatever"

Andrew and I end up sitting on the couch, talking for hours, we laughed a bit and got to know each other more, it was nice, to have a friendly relationship with someone.

I've never really had friends because I was always busy with homework and spending weekends, including some week days at the coffee shop.

I had people I'd make little conversation with and sit with at lunch to not look completely alone but that was it.

They probably haven't even noticed that I was gone.

"I would've thought it was black! What? No! It can't be orange" I exclaimed after Andrew told me his favorite color was orange.

Andrew laughed and nodded "Well I like orange, maybe Damien will like black" He shrugged.

I shrugged as well and looked up when the dining room door opened, there, appearing a shirtless Damien after spending a couple hours cutting that big yard.

He always appears when someone is talking about him...

Actually, it's starting to get a little creepy.

"Close your mouth, you'll catch bugs" Damien said, stomping upstairs.

I clamped my mouth shut quickly, realizing I was almost drooling over how.. beautiful his body was!

I blushed, embarrassed and looked back at Andrew.

"Sorry, uh we were talking about that walk around the neighborhood earlier.. maybe now would be a good time?"

"Uh, actually, Nova, I have to take care of a couple things and make sure I tell those girls they can quit pillow fighting now. Besides I think its better if your leader gives you the tour because we still have people who still remember you, and would recognize you on the streets" He nodded, a serious look on his face but having a uncomfortable tone.

"Oh okay, so since you're leaving and nobody is around, just to make sure, I have to go back upstairs?"

Andrew nodded without another word and stomped upstairs as well.

What was up with these boys?
