Dangerous Love

Chapter: 6

The next morning I woke up in bed alone. I started freakingout and when I sat up, I saw the bathroom door was closed, a line of light coming out from the bottom. I calmed down and tried to catch my breath. I get out of bed and knock on the door. The door opens and Leo was standing in the doorway with only a towel. He most likely just got out of the shower, his hair was wet.

"Um, should I talk to you later?" I ask, my face turning a crimson red.

"No, you can talk to me now. What did you need?" He asked, holding the towel around his waiste with one hand and leaning on the doorway with the other.

"I just- it was. I didn't know where you were and you scared me because I felt alone." I said, my face still red as I look down at my feet.

"I would never leave you." He said holding up my chin with his free hand. My face was blood red now. I nod franticly and run back to the bed to turn on spongebob. When I turned on the tv, the news was on.

"An arcade was broken into late last night and trashed. All arcade games were broken or throwing out the window. The employee who worked there dying he night shift disappeared. No one was caught in the act of destroying the arcade and we are not aware of any signs of the the employees return." The news anchor explained. My face went pale. Before he could go on, the channel was changed to spongebob. I look up to see Leo fully dressed holding the remote and watching the tv.

"He's going to be fine, I promise." Leo said looking down at me with a serious face.

"You don't even know what happened to him," I say franticly, "He was probably killed and staged away."

"No, Jason and Joe took him." Leo said.

"Who are they?" I asked, confusion showing on my face.

"The guys who attacked us a few nights ago," Leo explained sitting down on the bed, "They did the same thing to get my sister. They took her dog and she went looking for it. They're trying to do the Same thing to you. I'll go to get him, but you have to stay somewhere where they can't find you." He was holding my shoulders, making me look at him, and looking me deep in the eyes. I secretly cross my fingers behind my back and nod.

"Okay." Leo said letting go of my shoulders and smiling a little before beginning to watch SpongeBob SquarePants.

Leo left three minutes ago to go find Josh, which gave me enough time to dress in all black and paint my face black.

"I look like Margo from Paper Towns." I though to myself as I look in the mirror, my long, brown hair hanging off my shoulders. As I grabbed my small pocket knife, I put on my black van high tops and walk out of the door.

"What am I doing? I don't even know where to look..." I ask myself as I sneak out the back of the hotel, careful not to let anyone see me and think I was a robber. Once I got out undetected I ran towards the arcade. I looked down every alley to see if they were hiding there.

"Oh goody! We get the girls friend, the girl and Leo. The boss will be very happy!" I heard a rough, low voice say behind me. Before I could turn around to see who it was, a bag was thrown over my head, arms around my waist, and I blacked out.

As I started to gain consciousness, my wrists started to feel sore and my eyes felt heavy, so I kept my eyes shut. I tried to bring them to my chest
to find that they were tied behind me. I opened my eyes to see something brown in front of me. The thing that was brown wasn't just in front of me, but on my head. It was a potato sack. I could slightly see my surroundings through the small holes in the knitted bag.
