Trapped 6: Going The Distance (Sequel To Trapped 5: Happily Ever After)

Chapter 47-ACTION!

I look at Louis, only to find that he's looking back at me. I'm no longer Liz; I'm Marley now. I think it's going to take a while for me to be able to actually get adjusted to the fact that I'm responding to a new name. And it'd just be on screen. I'd be Marley onscreen, Liz off screen. It feels so weird, I guess. My thoughts drift as Louis begins stroking my arm, so I pull it away.

"C'mon Marley," he whispers, "don't be like that."

"Wait, Marley?" I question, and then it finally hits me, "Oh, we're filming! Oh my god I totally forgot! I'm so sorry! Can we run through this again?"

I'm such a blonde, even though I don't even have blonde hair. The direction does a face palm while I stand in front of the set's lockers and blush a deep shade of red, feeling embarrassed. 

"I'm so stupid," I whisper.

"Hey, now don't go putting yourself down like that," Louis scolds, "this just isn't your thing, and that's OK. But this is your first time acting, so don't go so hard on yourself."

What's with him being so nice? He seems so confident, whereas I'm practically shaking because I'm so scared. I just glance up at him, but he looks away before he has a chance to notice that I'm looking at him. Glancing to my right, I notice the boys all watching me with Louis, some of them looking a bit more uncomfortable than others.

You can do this Liz.

"Alright, now are we ready to try this again?" The director asks, obviously the hint of annoyance is in his voice.

I nod, so he immediately looks into his camera lens before calling action. I gulp, before Louis pushes a strand of hair behind my face. 

"Marley, you have nothing to worry about," he smirks, "I don't bite."

"B-but my parents are downstairs," I stammer nervously.

"Marley," he sighs before sitting up on my bed, "don't you trust me?"

"I-I-I don't know."

"But don't you want to kiss me?"

I honestly don't know why the director decided to put that line in there, because I find it ridiculous. I don't know why anyone would ask if someone wants to kiss them. You should just do it instead of asking for permission. I look down in shame, like Marley's supposed to, before DJ finally comes to his senses.

"You've never been kissed before, have you?"

I remain silent, before hearing a sound come out of his mouth, not really able to make out what it means. My mind begins racing with all the drama that's been surrounding my life as Louis begins to lean in towards me to give Marley her first kiss ever. As I'm about to jump back and run, my body decides to disobey and lunges at Louis instead, attacking his lips. I can tell he was in shock by how forceful I pounced on him, but I need some relief for once. I just need to get all of this weight lifted off my shoulders. I hear the sound of footsteps and muffled arguing from behind me but I don't care. Just like the script says, Louis begins to shift his position so I'm laying on the mattress and he's laying on top of me. 

"You trust me?" He asks.

I nod slightly, and begin to-

"LIZ DON'T-" I hear a voice yell.

"CUT!!!!" The director screams, "my god, how many times am I going to have to yell at you people today for constantly interrupting my masterpiece?!?"

"What the fuck happened?" Louis groans as he begins to look over at the others. 

Before I even have a chance to look over at the boys, I press my lips to Louis' once more. To my surprise, it was Niall who had yelled out to me. But why? He has Perrie. He should be more concerned about her than he should be about me. I sit up and look at him, only to notice that his cheeks are red and he seems a tad angry. I need to find out what the hell's going on here.

"Niall," I mumble, "what's going on?"

"What? Nothing," he immediately answers, not meeting eye contact.

"Why do I feel like there's something you boys aren't telling me?"

They always get this edge sometimes, and it aggravates me. Fine, the boys want it done this way, then it'll be done this way. I'm done fighting. I don't want to win anymore.

"I quit," I state before collecting myself and my things and heading out the door.

The sound of the metal door clicks behind me as I zipper up my coat and fight the bitter wind. I don't like being treated with no freedom, so I'm not going to give myself any. I love these boys, but I just can't date them. It just simply won't work. I can't go through with anything. I begin to make my way to my car before I notice Niall's reflection in my car window.

"What the hell was that little stunt back there?" I ask, turning around, startling him.

"I just couldn't stand to see you go through with something that I know you aren't comfortable doing."

"Oh really?" I argue.

"Yes! Look just because I'm with Perrie doesn't mean that I can't still have a relationship with you-"

"Niall I am not dating you while you are with her!" I yell as my non-dominant hand pushes the strands of hair that are flying with the wind behind my ear, "I just need a break! Leave me and my life the fuck alone!"

"Liz-"

I whip around, the anger blaring on my face. He is beyond pissing me off right now. So much, that I'm even scared about my own anger. These boys have done nothing but ruined my life.

"I have wanted to say this for a long time now........ FUCK........YOU!!!! Alright, I am sick of your bullshit and lies. I have been played, way too many times. You guys keep trying, and trying to get with me but I just don't want it! I'm not ready for commitment. A-and I'm not-"

"Nathan's your father," Niall interrupts.

I-is he dead serious right now? Is that what he's been hiding this whole time? But, I had sex with him....... That's gross and can't he be arrested for that? But him being my dad would explain a lot, like why he always wanted to be around me and protect me...... But I still don't understand......

Niall just stays put, but I can tell he's trying to read my face for an expression. Did he just say this to shut me up? Because that's what I'm thinking because of his silence. The wind continues blowing and it's not too long until the other boys burst out the studio doors, obviously looking for me. However, Eleanor, Louis, and Perrie are not outside. It's just Liam, Zayn, and Harry-no shock there. 

"Liz I can explain," Niall whimpers, "please give me a chance to clear up all of your confusion over dinner. Please?"

Time passes, and I have to still answer. Time still passes, but it seems like time has stood still, because the boys have not moved since they burst out a couple minutes ago. My head literally feels like it's going to explode because so much is taking up my mind.

"I need some air," I mumble before hopping into my car and speeding off.
