Just Another Stupid Love Story

Chapter Twelve: Father

I could feel the chains tightly bounding my wrists and ankles together, the chains weren’t cool but they weren’t warm either, they were neutral. My wrists and ankles were sore as I kept my eyes shut, hearing only a small sound of rustling around me. I could feel my hair dangling next to my face, my blue locks clumped up from the blood. My head was pulsing as I could feel gravity putting its force onto me, trying to push me away from the ceiling.

I wasn’t going to bother with escaping, I knew who had me captured and I knew that there would be more people on his side than just him. So I just let myself hang there with my eyes squeezed shut as I let only good, happy memories flow into my brain. Some were from when I was only a few years old, others were from this year. As I let the memories in I knew there were certain memories I was trying to keep out of my mind besides the sad, unhappy ones. They were the ones that included Aiden and Coal. Although what happened to Coal had happened many, many years ago, it was still an open wound to me.

I let out a grunt as I tried to change my position to something more comfortable, but that was slightly impossible. Being chained to the ceiling had problems, couldn’t he had at least used rope? I mean at least that is more comfortable than what chains are. I let out a defeated sigh before giving up, letting my muscles relax. I had to stop fighting against this, I didn’t know how long I was going to be attached to the ceiling but I knew it could be months, so struggling would only make things worse.

If I struggled it would hurt my wrists and ankles, but mainly my wrists. It would eventually tear the skin making my wrists fragile and making it harder for me to escape, so the best way would be just sitting here until I came up with a plan. I had realised a plan wouldn’t be easy with these chains. I could only hope that there was some sort of rope attaching these chains to the roof, but I doubted it.

I knew he knew me well, I knew he had been watching me longer than what he had said, most likely a month every year just to get an idea on my personality and what had changed. I knew he had been surprised when I started dating Ruby, it probably threw him off on my sexual orientation, but like he cared much about that. I think he would’ve been more interested in trying to get me, maybe he had even tried before... who knows, I know I didn’t have a clue.

I arched my back upwards a bit, trying to stretch my spinal cord. I could feel it getting tense from being dangled from the roof for so long. I had no clue what day it was but I was hoping that I hadn’t been here long, that way I have more of a chance. The longer I’m here the less amount of hope I have.

Growing irritated, I squirmed for a bit longer before just giving up and letting my back drop back to its original position, a crack echoing throughout wherever I was. A sigh in satisfaction left my mouth before a groan in irritation was heard. I furrowed my eyebrows curiously, waiting again for another noise and after several minutes another one came, this time a bit louder.

The groan was obvious, and I knew exactly who the voice belonged to. Trying to open my eyes was the next task and truthfully it was harder than what I expected it to be. Sleep was trapped in the corner of my eyes, some of it stapling the corner of my eyes shut. It took me a couple of tries before I actually got my eyes open enough to look around the dark room.

The room was large, but empty having nothing in the room. The walls were cement just like the floor, them both stained with what looked like dried up blood. The room reeked of death and the windows were bolted shut, letting absolutely no light come in. The only light that came in was from the small, glass window on the iron door, letting who ever walked by access to see inside the room. Beside the door I could see someone standing there with a stern expression. His arms were crossed over his chest as I could see an amused twinkle in his eyes.
