White. My dark eyes scan the ceiling of my room.
I had scattered my arms and legs across my bedroom floor in an un-lady-like manner. I think too much.
I decided the best thing to do was to take the book back, my eyes dart to the book over on my desk, I'm being silly.
This is silly. I haul myself up and slide my combat boots on, eh, I'm not impressing anyone.
Delicately picking up the book, I make my swift exit.
"I'm leaving", I mutter, slamming the front door behind me.
Screw having a family. They hate me anyway, why should I show any form of respect?
I gain a fast pace all the way to the library, making sure to keep my head down whilst clasping the book to my chest, I hate people.
As soon as I reach the library, I am greeted with the familiar book smell, heaven.
Ben!
Ben Hayton?
What's he doing in the library?
Okay, well, Ben is this guy.... He's gorgeous.
However. He is not the reason I'm here, I pull my hood over my head and let my dark hair drape down by the sides on my face. I swiftly move past him, trying not to catch his amazing green eyes, as if that happened, I'd get lost and wouldn't be able to function for the next 10 minutes.
I walk for what seems like forever, this book is homed near the back, which considering this place is huge, is a long way back.
Dust has already gathered where the book had been the previous night, damn...
I push the book quietly back into place, I don't want anything to do with it.
At all.
"We can't keep doing this."
I hear a voice
"What do you mean? Do you want to be caught? Forfeit your needs and complete what he has pledged."
The second voice is familiar... Ben?
I peer round the corner in which the voices can be heard, Ben.
Our eyes lock and he exhales deeply, "Naughty Girl. Don't interfere" he grins, his eyes glittering wildly, I straighten up, slightly confused...
"Be-"
A rag is harshly placed over my mouth and nose, I struggle,
Reality begins to whirl and whisp away from my vision. Darkness. What's going on? I don't know.
Help me.

Oh my lord, I wanted to continue writing but if I did it wouldn't be as dramatic as if it had its own chapter opening.
Also, I started this chapter a while ago, and then forgot I started it.
Buuuuut here you go,
