The Brown Eyed British Boy

Chapter Twenty-One - Reunited With The Monster

A sly smirk slid onto Jesse's lips as he looked the four of them over, especially Alex. "Great! We're all here!" Jesse exclaimed, clapping his hands together before pulling them apart, a fake sad expression spread over his face, "No cheers? No hugs and kisses?" He frowned, slightly pouting, "We'll get to that later." He shrugged.

As Jesse went on talking to them, Alex stared at him in fear. Sky was hiding behind Hope and Jack was glaring hard at Jesse, standing in front of Alex.

When none of them moved or said anything, Jesse sighed and flicked his wrist to the men with guns. The four of them were completely defenseless against the men. Jack was badly hurt even though Alex fixed him up, Alex was in shock and scared, Sky was just little and didn't really know what was going on, Hope, who was ready to lash out at anytime, had her fists balled up but after Alex shot her a warning glare, she relaxed.

The men with guns walked towards each of their targets, not saying anything. The biggest one grabbed Jack and pinned him against the wall forcefully, searching him for any weapons while the other two smaller men walked to Sky and Hope and tied their hands behind their back, holding the still. the last and final guard walked up to Alex and forcefully grabbed her hands, holding them behind her back.

Jack struggled against his guard, trying to get out of his grasp as Jesse walked slowly towards Alex, an evil look in his eyes ad he stared her down.'"Hello love." He cooed softly in a smooth angelic voice.

Alex looked down at the ground, not wanting to look into his eyes. Jesse growled lowly as he put a gloved finger under her chin and lifted her gaze to meet his, "It's not nice to not say hello back," he growled softly, "Understand baby girl?"

Alex shivered at the nickname but nodded slowly, "I-I understand..." She whispered softly. She felt so vulnerable and weak in front of him. Alex tried to free herself from the man behind her's grip but every time she struggled against him, his grip because tighter.

Jesse's smirk became wider at her struggling, "You should be happy princess," He cooed to her, "I did all of this just for you." He said, raising his hands in the air.

"What? Are you expecting a thank you?" she snapped at him, eyes narrowed.

"A thank you would be nice." Jesse growled, moving his face close to hers, his dark brown eyes stared into hers. A sly smirk slid onto his lips when she didn't flinch.

"Ladies, ladies," A voice rang from the other side of the room making Jesse and Alex snap their heads towards the voice to see she made it. It was Hope was had relaxed the mans grip. "I hate to interrupt but I don't see much use of me and Sky so... maybe.. I don't know.." she trailed off looking down pretending to think, "Oh! Hey, maybe you should let us go."

Jesse walked over to her, "Ah yes..." He muttered as he looked at Hope, "You're Hope Moorman." He cooed as he traced her jawline with his gloved finger, "You live with your mentally disabled mother and you have to work at a gas station and give blood just so you can feed her. " He said, telling her her own life as if it was written on a piece of paper.

Alex and Jack glanced nervously at each other and Sky was staring hard at her shoes as Jesse went on. "And did she ever give you a thank you?" Jesse asked. He was trying to tick her off and it was working. Hope's hands were balled into fists behind her back, her eyes narrowed and a slight growl coming from her mouth, "But how are you here? When you're mother is six thousand miles away, how are you taking care of her?"
