Chapter 7

Carmon's P.O.V

I slowly walked into the room in awe. The room was probably the size of his other room. In the center across the room was a large desk against the wall. There was a bulletin board above it was a bunch of batman sketches, I would have laughed if they weren't as good as they were, they looked 3D almost. The wall both left and right were filled with books. Shelves and shelves of books, classic books to new action/thriller books. One of the shelves next to his desk had around five sketch books with sketch pencils. This was the most beautiful room I have ever seen and it hurts so much that none of this is mine.

I fell to my knees my hands on my heart and I started crying. It may seem like I'm over reacting but if you don't feel the same you don't understand the beauty.

Those things weren't what made me fall to my knees though. It was the mini fridge in the corner. Can you imagine filling your favorite foods and drinks in there and just letting your imagination roam in drawings and books.

I looked at him with tears still running down my cheeks, "This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, you now have earned all my respect," I said

He chucked and kneeled down next to me, "would you like a couple books?" he asked.

I nodded and hugged him tightly, his body tensed and he pushed me away, "None of that gooey crap though," he said frowning.

I blushed a little embarrassed and nodded again. I stood on my feet and walked to a shelf. I picked out two books. "Gone Girl" and "Vanishing Girls". They didn't really seem like books he would read but I didn't question it.

"Thank you so much, you have no idea how grateful I am," I said looking at him.

He just nodded and motioned for me to leave the room. I left and went to my room. I set them on the night stand and sat on the bed thinking of what just happened. I just hugged someone that helped kidnap me.

It was such a mistake though. He pushed me away, I was stupid to think he was nice. I mean he is nice, but... I don't know, I don't even know why I'm thinking about this. I grabbed "Vanishing Girls" and started reading. I kept reading and reading and I couldn't stop. There were so many plot twists I just couldn't stop.

When I finished the book I was shocked, a book has never surprised me that much in my entire life. I fell asleep thinking about that pour girl and her sister.

Skylar's P.O.V.

I haven't been able to sleep, not with thinking about Rylie not being about to sleep next to her sister. I snuck out of the room and went into Cassidy and Carmon's room quietly. I saw Carmon reading but she didn't seem to notice me, she was way to much into the book, her eyebrows were raised and her mouth was wide open.

I walked over to Cassidy who was facing the wall. I poked her shoulder trying to wake her. She turned to me with tears in her eyes, I guess she wasn't sleeping after all.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"It's all my fault Rylie is in this mess and now I can't even talk to her," he said sniffling.

"It isn't your fault, these guys took us all, they're smart," I said trying to reassure her.

"I guess, but I still miss her," she said looking down at her hands.

"That's actually why I came in here, I was wondering if you wanted to stay in there tonight and I'll just stay in here. I can't sleep knowing you guys are separated," I said putting my hand on her shoulder.
