Saving Faith [Selena Gomez, James Franco, Justin Bieber]

No More Secrets

🌺Faith🌺

Good things happen to those who deserve them, and obviously I don't. I sometimes think that I am not better than Alien and Jason. The three of us killed people. The three of us took the life of other human beings with our hands. What's the difference between us? Nothing! we are all sinners. The Lord will never forgive for what I have sinned. Despite the fact that I am trapped in here with those strangers, I am still a girl who killed a man and run away with it. It's been two weeks since I have heard Alien's voice through the phone. He seemed desperate, I was able to hear him scream when he was talking to Jason. Since then I am hoping that Alien would find me and save me. I know! I know! this is insane but at least I somehow trust Alien. He is the person who covered for me after I killed a man, and he did it just to be with me. He told that he has feelings for me. In the other hand, Jason is closing on me in this room, not because he wants me with him or because he has feelings for me, but rather avenging Alien for ruining a business deal. So, I'd rather spend the rest of my life with Alien, than being trapped with Jason McCann for life. Alien would never hurt me, I know that because I saw it in his eyes. I trust him... I trust Alien. But not this bastard named Jason. 

For the last two weeks, Jason kept coming to my room. He just sit cross from me and spend the time watching me. It was so uncomfortable, he looked like a psychopath. It was so creepy. He never said anything, not a word. He just came in and watched. The room I  was in has one closed window. Therefore, I have no clue about the time or my whereabouts.  The rooms is always dim with curtains closed. But, at night when things are silent and quite, I can hear the waves breaking on the shore. there is this noise that is telling me that we are by the ocean. But this means nothing, this is California, we could be anywhere! 

My whole body is in knots. I am so tired. I didn't sleep since they put me in this room. Plus, I stink! I didn't change my cloths since the day I escaped Aline. I stand up walking to the closed window and I try for the millionth time to open it, but nothing happens. The damn window is firmly closed. I walk back to my bed and lay down covering my face with my both hands. Suddenly, the door opens. I move away my hand and I look at the so strange yet so familiar visitor. 

"Are you sleeping?" Jason asks as he walks towards me. I push on my arms, re-positioning myself. I don't say a word. I just look at him as he sits down next to me. Our eyes meet for brief seconds, then I turn my head looking at the pale white walls. I hear him inhaling loudly, as if he is tired of my cold treatment. Funny! that I should be the one tired of this situation not him. I am the one trapped in a room. Actually, trapped in a situation where death is a clear and loud option. He suddenly stands up pulling me with him, "come with me" he says. I try to pull away but his strong fingers dig harshly onto my flesh. 

"Stop fighting me Faith!" he says, his voice somehow laced with anger. I look at him, my eyes wide. I can't believe he just said that. "You kidnapped me, remember?!" I hiss. 

"I saved your ass, actually." he says as he starts walking pulling me with him, "Aline is a dangerous guy and he is not the right person to be with" 

"And you are?" I throw the question at him. He stops dead in his place, his hand on the doorknob. Then he turns around to look at me. 

"Don't compare me with Alien." his eyes are boring holes onto mine. I feel his fingers digging hardly onto my skin. 

"So you are not a dangerous guy and you are the right person a girl can be with?" I ask him despite the pain. He looks at me for awhile, not moving. Then, briskly he opens the door and walks out still pulling me with him. It's evening, I can see the sun swallowed by the horizon. There are three men outside my door. Jason keeps moving, tugging me along with him. Then he stops by the end of the corridor, he opens the door to a new room and we get in. He releases me then closes the door.

"There are new and clean clothes for you and everything you need is inside the bathroom."

"What?!"

"Go take a shower" 

I look around me for few seconds then I start walking towards the bathroom. I turn around to look at him. he was still standing by the door, looking at me intensely. I look away, as I open the bathroom door and secure myself inside. Well, he made an offer that I can't say no to. I am so in need to this shower. The bathroom is so clean and big. The clothes he told me about are on the marble sink island. There are like tens of different shampoos and hair conditioners. I close my eyes for few seconds and then I go back to the door to make sure that it's firmly closed. Then I decide to take this very needed shower.

I finish showering after long minutes. I wear the new clothes. He even brought me a new fresh underwear. This is a bit embarrassing! I put on the white flowered dress and I pull over it the red sweater. Then I put on the white All Stars converse. I wait for few seconds, trying to make out if there is any sound outside. And, all hear is nothing. I open the door slowly. The lights are on now and it's dark outside the window. I can clearly see the ocean though. Jason is standing by the french doors looking at the scenery. 

"Come closer" Jason says without looking at me. I hesitate for few seconds and then I slowly start walking. When I am almost there I stop few steps away from him. 

"You smell good" he whispers as he turns towards me. I stretch his hand to touch my face but I take a step back. His hand falls between us. He looks at me for awhile then faintly smile. 

"You are the first girl to avoid me touching her" he says. I don't say anything I just look away avoiding his eyes. He is acting different; less himself and more human. His eyes are softer than usual. And, this makes me at unease. I can deal with his anger and his harshness, but this is different. This is weird. I don't like it at all. Because, this can lead to things that I am trying to avoid. 

"Alien stopped looking for you as I told him," he says changing the subject. I look at him again for brief seconds then I look through the window. Alien abandoned me! This can't be true! He said that he loved me, he asked me to trust him. And I did! like an idiot I trusted him to save me! to keep me safe.  I even started to... to like him. I can't believe he just stopped looking. I can't help it, the tears start falling. I try to control myself but the pain is too much to take in. I turn around, my back to Jason. I can't afford letting him seeing me like this. 

"I told you he's not the right guy" his voice flat with no emotion. I close my eyes not wanting to let this take the best of me. I feel his hand on my shoulder, I try shrug it off but he grip is hard. 

"You are not alone," he says, "I will protect you and I will save you... I promise" 

The last person promised to save me, just gave up on me at the first sign of trouble. I don't say anything the lamp in my throat is choking me. I can't stand this anymore. I start walking to the door, I need to get out of here. My legs are shaky and I can barley move. 

"Faith!" Jason pleads but I just keep moving. I feel him behind me. He grabs my shoulders turning me around. He eyes are restless, they are looking at me like they are hiding secrets. He brushes his thump over my wet cheeks. I want so hard to push him away from me but his eyes are charming me out of myself.

"Don't worry Faith," he whispers "No one will know that you killed a man."

His last words pulled me out of my trance. As if he just slapped me, I push away from him. My breathing is coming harder. My eyes are burning and wide open. I try to talk but nothing comes out. He looks at me unfazed.

"Your secrets are safe with me," he adds. And, I am not  safe not any more.
