^"Let it go" in Spanish is "Libre soy" meaning "I am free" & I think that's a neat way to look at that song

Ben's POV

I guess I had zoned out. I'm jolted to my senses by a loud bang. I look up, towards the noise, and my heart drops.

"Guess your love doesn't really love you." Nathan sneers, gesturing to a girl who was passed out and tied to a chair just like me.

"What did you do to her?" I demanded, failing to keep the worry out of my voice. He lets out an evil laugh, sending shivers down my spine.

"I don't usually get to play with the toys I sell." My eyes go wide. He can't be serious. He grabs her jaw and says, "Although, I think I could make an exception for this one." He places a sloppy kiss on her cheek.

"LEAVE HER ALONE!" I scream.

"You're just jealous that you can't be like this with Evie." He smirks, leaving the room.

Evie's POV

"Go away Liam!" I call, as the harsh knocking against Cassie's door persists.

"It's a Saturday. Evie, can we at least try to find something happy in this mess." I can practically hear the tears in his voice. "Evie, please, I miss how simple our routine used to be." I feel the tears prick my own eyes. I get up and open the door. Immediately, I am engulfed in a desperate hug, the type of hug that is trying to hold onto something long-gone.

"I think we should stay at one of our houses though. I don't want to go out in public." I explain. He nods into my shoulder.

We end up going to his house. Popping in a DVD of 'Frozen', Liam sets up a movie day.

"Leee-ummm" I whine.

"What is it Ev?" He seems a bit more concerned than I would've liked.

"You know how I feel about Frozen." I explain. As the language menu pops up, I see Liam flicking the choice between English and Spanish.

"Oh, so you want English this time?" He teases. I can't stand listening to 'Let it Go' unless it's in Spanish.

"Libre soy, Libre soy..." I begin to sing. (That's Let it Go in Spanish btw)

"You're such a dork." He laughs as he picks Spanish.

--

It's half-way through the movie, and if it weren't for Liam's nieces making him watch Frozen non-stop, he wouldn't know what was going on.

"Hola, soy Olaf y me gusta abrazos calientes." I repeat the cute little snowman in the movie.

"Ev, I never took a foreign language. I have no clue what you're saying." He lies. I know he's lying because he engulfs me in a hug.

The movie: 'Knock. Just knock. Does she not know how to knock?'

*knock knock knock*

Liam happily jumps up to get the door. What do you know? It's Tommi. Perfect timing dude.

"I think I know where Ben and Cassie are!" Tommi shouts, excitedly.

"Really?!" Liam and I shout back in unison. Liam takes it one step further though, pulling Tommi into a tight hug. I should've looked away then, but I didn't. I say it coming. The way they looked into each others eyes. Tommi, who was a great deal taller than Liam, picked Liam up and spun him around, setting him down with a kiss. I knew I was missing something between them. Seeing them kiss just now, made my heart sink. I was happy that they were happy together, but it just reminded me of Ben.

"Evie?" Tommi asks concerned. I must've zoned out. I look up to him. "We're going to get them back, like soon." I smiled at his assuring words and attitude.



A/N: Finally getting a chance to update! It took me a little while to figure out how I wanted this part to go.

Comment what you think comes next! Also-Please comment asking question's if you are confused. I will try to answer them unless it conflicts with any future reveals in this story.

What do you think everyone's drugs are? What'll happen to Cassie? What are Tommi's plans to get them out? Do you think Nathan/Erik are prepared for Evie, Tommi, and Liam trying break their friends out?
