"Just a friend?" They both started laughing together.
They made me want to cringe, the one in front of me wasnt much taller than I was, maybe only an inch or two taller. He was brunette with a long beard and green eyes, he must have been in his late 30's.
As for the one behind me, I wasnt sure of how he looked. I didnt get to look at him yet since he was poinging a gun to the back of my head.
"This isnt a joke. Lets put our weapons down and talk." I suggested as they laughed even more.
"You really think we're gunna just toss our weapons to the side and trust you? You're crazy." The guy in front of me laughed. I'm going to call him beardy until I learn his name. Thats if I do learn it.
"Give me your weapons." The guy behind me demanded.
I looked down at my new crossbow and handed it to them gently, along with most of my knifes. I kept one though, just in case.
"Good girl, thank you." The guy behind me removed the guns barrel from my head and pointed it to the floor.
"Come on, lets go." Beardy tugged on my hair, going deeper into the back room.
"Get into the freezer with your lover." He yelled as he pushed me in.
Mason was shivering in the corner but as soon as he saw me being tossed like a rag doll into the room he got up and helped me to my feet.
"You told them we were 'lovers'?" He questioned while laughing.
"Even if it would have saved my life I wouldnt tell him that." I stated, maybe a little too rudely.
"Mmmm, sure." He winked at me.
I rolled my eyes and punched him in the shoulder.
"We have to get out of here." I stated the obvious.
"No shit sherlock, they took all of my weapons." He chuckled.
"You gave them everything? Thats a dumbass move." I stated as I reached into my pocket to grab my knife.
He nodded like he was impressed with me and grabbed it from my hands.
"Now lets find a way out."
I sat down in a corner as Mason messed with the freezers locking system. After a few minutes, the freezer door opened suddenly.
"How do you even know how to do that?" I asked.
"Not my first time trapped inside a freezer, lets get our things and get out of here."
I nodded in agreement, not even questioning the fact that he has been trapped in a freezer before.
We then made our way over to the rest of 'beardys' group.
"Where'd those damn kids even come from?" One guy asked to another.
"I'm not sure, but I'm not too happy about it." A guy with a deep voice yelled out.
"What should we do with them sir?" Another voice called out. His voice seemed to sound younger, maybe even around our age.
"Well, have you seen them yet? The girl is smoking, maybe you could make a move on her." I could imagine a gross ass wink form onto the old mans face.
"I have not seen them yet sir, but didnt you say she had a boy with her?"
I heard the old man chuckle before he told him not to worry about that.
I could feel my face heat up, worried about what that meant and what Masons and I's fate would be.
We dodged behind a wall before the boy our age walked our way.
Mason pushed me aside so that he was closest to the edge of the wall.
When he made his way around the corner Mason grabbed him by the neck and covered his mouth with his hand.
"Shhhh, no need to be scared or anything."
Mason tried to reassure the boy but it didnt seem to help. He tried to break free, but Mason was way bigger than him.
I walked up and combed my hand through his hair, "hey, hey, its okay. We're not here to harm anyone. We want our stuff and we'll be on our way." I told him.
He seemed to calm down a little more when I was talking to him.
"If we let you go, promise me you wont say a word."
He nodded his head up and down quickly.
"Pinky promise?" I held out my pinky for him to take with his pinky and he didnt hesitate.
Mason let him go and he gasped for air.
"Are you okay?" Mason asked.
"Ye-yeah, I think so."
"Whats your name? I'm Megan and this is Mason." I pointed out.
"I'm Cody." He responded but then added, "how old are yoou." He winked at me and Mason seemed surprised.
"I'm 19 thanks for asking." Mason winked back at him.
