Nicks P.O.V
As we all made our beds on the cold damp floor, I couldn't get off my mind who the hell was this man who took us all? He said I knew who he was but I couldn't think, I'm trying to think if I've ran into him before or seen him in the street, was he one of my parents friends? I couldn't wrap my head around it. I sat down on my blanket looking at everybody. All the boys where talking and messing around like they knew each other. As I looked around that girl was in the corner curled up in a ball just watching all of us.

"I'm not sharing a bed with no one!" I think it was Carson who was yelling.

"Well somebody's going to have to share and it's not going to be me!" Another boy yelled I think that was Devon.

"Well someone's going to have to share." I said looking around

"I can share..." a soft quite voice spoke in the background of us arguing. We all looked at her and she was standing there shivering.

"No you don't have..." I started to say getting cut off

"Good, I don't know why one of us has to share and she don't." Barked Devon with a smirk on his face looking her up and down.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Edwin yelled pushing him, Devon took a swing at his face and tackled him to the floor, then the door at the top of the stairs opened.

"Stop your shit!" That man yelled walking down the stairs. "Now it's time for the fun part, since Devon can't behave he can go last. I'll choose Edwin cause he wants to be "the sweet boy". Edwin and Valerie follow me." We all just sat there looking at him, what the hell does he mean by fun? Edwin and Valerie just looked at each other and walked up the stairs behind him.

Edwins P.O.V

We followed that man up the stairs and into the kitchen, it was huge. He took us through another big room with two stair cases on each side of the room. In the front of the room were two big doors, I think they where the main doors to getting out. He took us up a pair of stairs and down a long hallway with multiple doors that were closed but one and that was the one he took us to. It was a nice big room, it had a king size bed with a wardrobe in the corner of the room. On one of the walls there was a big mirror, it kinda looked like a one-way mirror.

"This is where you guys will be staying for the night, now I have rules." He said as we looked around. He sat down in a chair across from the bed.

"This will be Valerie's room at all times and each one of you boys will have a chance to stay with her. I've watched each one of you guys for almost a year now and I've studied how you guys are." He told us with a smirk on his face, he stood up and walked over to the wardrobe, he opened it and there was a white board on one of the doors with a list of names and the dates, it kinda looked like a calendar. I walked closer to see what was on the bored and all of our names were on there.

"This board show the nights you will be in here and what you'll do, you must follow the board of she'll be punished even if you disagree." He stood up and walked over to the door getting ready to leave until I stopped him.

"What punishment?" I questioned, but he did not reply he just walked out closing the door behind him and locking it. Valerie ran over to the door trying to open it as I looked around finding another way out. I spotted a window and ran over trying to pry it open but had no luck. I turned around to see Valerie on the floor crying, I walked over to her resting my hand on her shoulder. As she looked up at me, her eyes were red and her cheeks were wet. She jumped up wrapping her arms around me as she sobbed.

20mins later

Valerie eventually fell asleep in my arms, I stood up to walk over to the bad to lay her down. I walked over to the wardrobe to see what was on the board, each day of the week had a different boys name on it, mine was under wensday which was today, tomorrow was graysons night, Friday was Devon's and nobody's name was under Saturday or Sunday

Sence it was my night with Valerie I was laying in bed, but I was not going to touch her unless she wanted me to. Right now she was laying down with me half way asleep, I accidentally woke her up when I layed down. Just as I layed down someone nocked on the door, I got up and opened it to only reveal that terrible odor that snuck up from underneath me, scrunching my nose in terror.

"I know I was just here but I feel as if I didn't make myself clear enough. If you don't do what I say she will be punished." The yellow, smoked out teeth shined through the smirked on his face.

I didn't quite understand what he was talking about. I must have took to long to respond as he snapped at me grabbing me by the throat.

"Do you understand me?" As his hands grasped tighter as if they couldn't get any tighter around my neck. He tossed me to the floor laughing as he walked out the door. Valerie woke up in fear gathering the blanket around her pulling it closer. I touched my neck, sore to the touch. I stood up looking into the mirror. My reflection staring back at me with the disappointment of ever letting this happen. I walked back over to the bed looking down so she couldn't see the weakness in me.

She reached out for my arm asking "are you okay?" Her touch was so soft, making me feel unharmed. I crawled in bed laying down, her in synced resting her forehead on mine running her finger through my hair pulling it out of my face. We laid there for the rest of the night, staring into each other's eyes till she fell asleep, shortly after I did too.
