"A gym...?" I asked incredulously staring at the rough looking building in front of me. We drove for almost an hour to be here? Somebody has some explaining to do.

"Yup" Daniel answered cheerfully jumping out of the truck and landing by my side.

"And we are here because?" I stretched the last word hoping that someone soon could explain all of this.

"Like we said, we are just following orders. I don't know what the hell that crazy-motherf*--" Liam elbowed Josh successfully shutting him up. Must say he was not so happy about it. In a matter of seconds, Josh had Liam in a headlock and he was struggling to get out. Daniel rolled his eyes and reluctantly went to separate them.

I turned to look at Tori who was amused at the boys' behavior. "What do you think this is all about?" I asked trying to get her attention.

"Hmm, sounds like someone is trying to get some points." She smirked looking towards the gym.

"Do you think I should go in?" I asked giving all this a second thought. I wasn't too eager to forgive him now. I wanted to make him suffer a bit more.

"Girl if you don't go, I will. Who knows, maybe he has something special for you in there." She waggled her brows suggestively.

"Alright! You have the strongest headlock!" Liam yelled capturing my attention towards them again. He got out of the position he was in and tried to kick a laughing Josh, who was quick enough to avoid it. Poor Liam was examining the damage made on one of the truck's tinted window.

"Stop being such p*ssies and let's focus on the task at hand." Daniel said in a bored tone. Seems like they do this all the time. "Well, my lady, this is where we part ways." He turned to walk towards the truck.

"Wait! You are going to leave me here, alone?" I knew well I was not going to be alone, but I wanted them to admit Drake was inside.

"Yeah, about that, maybe you should go inside. It's not very safe out here, not even during the day." Josh said scratching the back of his neck.

"Tori?!" I asked in disbelief when I saw my best friend walking along with them to the truck.

"Babe, I ain't staying here alone. So you might as well get your ass in there." She turned and nodded towards the gym.

I scoffed. This is unbelievable.

"Now about that foreplay boys!" She bounced on the backseat.

"Tori! Boyfriend!" The nerve of this girl sometimes.

"Don't worry; we'll take care of her." Daniel winked mischievously.

"Oh no, you won't!" I yelled feeling like a protective gen all of a sudden.

"Bye Emily!" The all chorused as Liam turned on the truck again and left without another word.

Aw, double crap.

Daniel's words about the place not being safe started to get to me and paranoia took over. I began to look both ways frantically hugging the purse to my chest. I hurriedly made my way towards the entrance and got in. The place was...what I expected. It had a boxing ring on a corner, a bunch of weights equipment, punching sacks, running machines, and pretty much every other crap you would find in a gym.

I made my way towards the center and looked everywhere for signs of any other person inside, but there was no one else.

I was about to take my cell phone out of my purse when a voice next to my ear made me jump three feet high.

I screamed and tried to use my cell phone as a weapon. During my fit I realized that my attacker was none other than my soon-to-be dead boyfriend.

He had his hands up in surrender and his lips where in a thin line, obviously trying very hard not to laugh.
