Metanoia.

Chapter: 18

I woke up, after only having three hours of sleep to being moved. These people tricked us into trusting them. They locked me, Cameron, and my mother all in separate rooms. Honestly, I just give up on trying to be happy. I give up on trying to escape. I just give up.

I laid my back against the wall and closed my eyes wishing for this all to just be a nightmare that will be over but, it was reality. Most teens would be out having fun right now, Partying, Dancing and going to the mall but, me? I get kidnapped, get told my mom isn't my real mother and that my real parents are psychos. I guess that's my luck. The only good thing that has happened to me is Cameron. I couldn't take it no more, the more I thought about my life the more I felt horrible.

I started to sob. Tears, streamed down my face as if a ocean lived in the depths of my eyes. I honestly just wanted this all to be over. I'm done fighting for my happiness because I now see I wasn't meant to be happy.

I know Cameron will make it out soon because he doesn't really have anything to do with this mess, I just caused him trouble. As much as I don't want to, I have to break up with him so he can be let go. I started to cry more at that thought.

I was madly in love with everything about Cameron and honestly, he is changing me. I mean we have changed each other. I've become more tough and he became a little bit less soft.

I heard something against the door, I didn't even bother to open it. I looked over and someone slid in food.

I wasn't going to eat. I just wanted to cry.

So, that's what I did. Cried until no more tears were left.

*Cameron's POV*

They locked us all in different rooms. All, I could think about how Vivian is. I know, she is strong but, a person can only take so much.

I heard they were gonna let us out for an hour. I will get to see her then. I know, what she is thinking right now. She's blaming everything on herself and probably crying. I mean, I would cry right now too but, I have to stay strong. Not just for me but, for the both of us.

No matter what I will get us out of here alive. I will protect her. I will save us. I have no doubt about it.

But, then there's this little thought in the back of my head making me doubt that it will happen. It's telling me that were gonna be here forever or even die. That little thought kept pushing even closer to the front of my head.

I shook my head and stopped thinking. I needed to just clear all my thoughts for a while.

*Vivian's POV again.*

The door opened, I quickly wiped off my face. It was still wet. My eyes were blood shot and tears stained my cheeks.

"Aw, she's crying! Oops, nobody cares." The lady smiled wickedly. I wanted to punch her teeth right down her scrawny little throat.

"Oh, shut up. Let Cameron go and keep me all you want." I pleaded.

"Hm... How about no?" She smiled gripping me by my hair and dragging me.

She threw me in another huge room where Cameron was and locked the door. My mother was still in her room.

"Viv.." He ran up and hugged me tight.

I held him which might be the last time we hug.

"Cameron, we need to break up." I let go, as my heart shattered just saying those words.

"W-What do you mean?" His eyes filled with sorrow.

"It's better this way.. They will let you go.." I looked at the ground. "Everything that is happening to you is because of me."

"Don't you dare blame yourself! You never asked for this! Neither did I! We're gonna get through this together because it's you and me forever!" He turned me to him and gripped my face and kissed me.

The kiss was filled with want and need. He didn't have to speak to tell me how much he loved me.

I pressed my forehead on his as I cried. "I just want to be happy."

"We will be. I promise you." After, those words we were separated again.

This was a war, and I was going to win it.
