[20] - Cold Basements

C h a r l o t t e

Coldness.

That's all I felt.

I hadn't even been in this place a full day, and I was already freezing cold.

I shivered and hugged myself closer.

The door at the top of the stairs opened, and a dark figure bounded down the steps.

It was a man, I think it was the one who kidnapped me.

"Hello Charlotte, I'm Renaldo. I'm here to set some ground rules," the man said.

"I'm only seventeen for Christ's sake, why did you take me?" I spoke up in a loud voice.

"We'll get to that, but here are some ground rules. One, no running. Two, no fighting back. Three, there will be 'sessions' with my boss, Gale. Four, if you do not behave, you'll get punished. That's all I have for now. To now answer your question, we took you for a reason. You're Niall's most prized possession,so we took an interest in you. We watched you, and found out that you were coming to club seven, and then we got you." Renaldo explained.

"But why?" I said confusedly.

"Because Niall is in lots of trouble with this gang, 'Pack 987'. "

I nodded and he turned on his heel, and walked up the stairs.

What did Niall do?

-

I woke up the next morning in the rather cold basement once again.

"Up, boss wants a session. Now." Renaldo growled.

I nodded, quickly getting up and walking in front of Renaldo up the stairs.

It was a little difficult considering I was in a dress and heeled boots, but I managed.

Renaldo led me around the medium-sized rundown home until we landed at a large two-door room at the end of a hall.

He knocked a certain pattern on the door.

"Come in," a gruff voice said from the other side of the door.

We entered the room.

There in the corner sat a middle aged man, smoking a blunt.

"Gale, I have her." Renaldo spoke.

"Good, thanks. Now leave." He spoke and pointed to the door.

Renaldo gave a small nod and exiting through the large doors once again.
Gale crushed the blunt into the ground, burning it out.

"Ahh, Lottie. What a beautiful girl." Gale said, rising from his previous standing position.

"Don't call me that." I snapped.

"Why can't I?" He smirked, walking in circles around me.

"Because only Niall can call me that. And you're obviously not Niall." I explained, crossing my arms over my chest.

"Tell me why exactly you're with Niall," he stated. "The curiosity is eating me alive."

"I am because I want to be. My parents don't care about me. They never have. Niall is the only one that does." I said, angry tears forming in my eyes.

"We'll just have to see about that," he smirked, grabbing a remote and turning on the large Telly in the corner. He switched to the news channel.

My parents faces popped up on the screen, they looked worried and sad.
Did Gale plan this? Did he know that I'd say that, so he could show me this interview with me parents?

"When was this interview?" I asked.

"Earlier today, now watch." He clicked the play button.

"Today, everyone in Sacramento is devastated. Six teenagers have gone missing. They have been gone for about a month or two.We have Charlotte Green's parents with us right here," she gave the microphone to my parents.

"Please bring my baby home, I love her so much." My mom cries into my dad's shoulder.

"If you know where she is, call us at, ***-***-****. Bring our baby home," my dad said.

"The missing teens consisted of Charlotte Green, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne and Harry Styles. Please help Sacramento find these missing teens."

Gale shut off the Telly.

"That's bullcrap and you and I both know it. They don't care, they've never cared. If they did care they might've actually been in my life instead of at the Bahamas!" I shouted.

"Oh but it's not. Because I have a plan, and you guys will all be gone." He led me out of the room, downstairs to the basement.

I was pushed down the stairs.
It was a painful drop.

I pushed myself to crawl over to the wall and hug myself.

There was only one thing on my mind.

What's going to happen to us?
