Opposites Attract {Janiel}

Chapter 16

~Daniel's POV~

I quickly try to plan a way out, without making any noise or them seeing me. As I look around trying to discover a plan, I spot someone heading toward the big pile of boxes where I am hiding. Shit. I look to my left, and I'm surrounded. There's no way I'm making it out of here alive. As the guy is literally 1 ft away from me, the people to my left head to the back of the basement, and I quickly crawl toward the stairs and run up the stairs and I trip, making a big thud. Crap. They definitely know I'm here now. I quickly gather myself, and I sprint up the stairs and into the living room. Now where do I hide? I try to think of somewhere I didn't look, and I think of one. Sawyer's room.

 I hear foot steps quickly coming up from the basement, so I sprint up the stairs to where Sawyer's room is. I open the door and slam it behind me, locking it and shoving a heavy bucket in front of the door. I quickly search for clues where Joey may be. I hear foot steps stomping around down the hallway. Shit.  I search a little quicker and  I find a familiar key. I look at it. It's the key to the storage room, where I hid the flowers. I search my pockets for the same key, and it's not there. This is my key. Why would he have it? Wait. That must be where Joey is.

The door suddenly flings open, and I jump. I quickly open his window and I just make a jump for it. I'd rather break my legs than feel Sawyer's rath, and most importantly, see my Joey hurt. I close my eyes, expecting an unbelievable pain, but I end up landing in his pool. I come back up from underwater, and I sigh of relief. I quickly swim to the ladder, and hop out of the pool. I turn around to see a few people from his crew went out the pool entrance, and are chasing me. I sprint and jump over the fence. I sprint to my house and I hop in the car. I quickly put the keys into ignition and I drive to the school.

I quickly park my car and run into the school. I turn around. Nobody. I hope I lost them. I quickly rush to the storage room where I hid the flowers. "Joey!?" I scream while running to the storage room. I quickly search my pockets for the keys and I unlock the door. I walk in to see Joey, a scarf tied around his mouth and his hands tied to the back of him. I cover my mouth and my eyes widen. His eyes are closed, and he has bruises on his face and body. What the hell did Sawyer do to my baby?

I quickly run to him and I shake him. "Joey." I shake him more. "Joey I'm here." I say. He slowly opens his eyes. "Joey I'm gonna get you out of here." I tell him, and suddenly a hand grabs me and pulls me away. I yelp. I turn around. "Sawyer." "What the hell did you do to Joey?" I growl at him. He just smiles. "Something I've been wanting to do for a while." "What the hell does that mean?" I growl and he smiles. "Why waste your time on a jerk like him, when you can have this?"

 "I prefer him over you any day." I snarl. He laughs. "Oh Daniel, you're making the wrong decision." "I don't think I am." I growl. He pushes me up against the wall and leans in for a kiss. I smack him across the face. "Get off me you freak!" I scream at him. He touches his nose and looks at his hand. Blood. He snarls. "Say your sweet goodbyes now, as you won't be able to later." He snarls and storms out the door. What the hell is that supposed to mean? I run to the door and bang on the door. "Sawyer!" I scream. I look over at Joey who is still loopy. That's it. I've lost.
