Paige's apartment above

Paige's P.O.V  (surprise!!!!)

I jumped up and down on the spot for like 2 minutes once I unlocked my apartment door and threw my stuff down onto the couch. "OMG, OMG I asked someone to hang out with me. Yay, I made a friend" I tell myself as I walk into my bedroom and plop down. As I kept thinking about Fenja my new friend but of course a bad thought came to my mind, what if she doesn't like me after we hang out? Maybe she'll find out that I was diagnosed with OCD and generalized anxiety disorder? Will she not understand the issues and leave me because she thinks she'll catch it from me? Omg, what have I done?

I snapped out of my thoughts when someone knocked on my door. I slowly hopped off my bed and made my way downstairs to the front door. I peeked through the peephole thingy in the door and saw a massive guy covered in tattoos standing right outside tapping his foot and looking at his watch.

I slowly brought my hand to the doorknob and turned it. I didn't open the door all the way, just because this guy looked scary as fuck. I peeked through the little gap I made, "Um..Hello, can I help you with anything?" I asked as the man stared at me through the Crack. 

He looked up at me and smiled, "ah yes. My name is Jarrod Stephens, are you Paige Tyson?" He asked as I stared at home wide-eyed.

"umm.. yeah that's me, what could I do for you?" I asked suspiciously. Not really trusting this guy, cause (1) I don't  even know who he is, and (2) He looks so intimidating and scary-looking. 

"Can I come in cause I need to talk to you about Jade Partridge." He stated as the corner of his mouth curled into a smile. Jade Partridge....hmm mm that name sounds familiar... where have I heard that name?? Jade Partridge, Jade Partridge, Jade Partridge? OMG, that's the girl that Fenja filed as a missing person. I was brought away from my thoughts, with Jarrod clicking his fingers in front of my face.

I looked at him, a little bit more frightened at his appearance. He stood tall, shoulders back, and had a murderous look on his face. "Um, yeah sure." I say as I open the door and step aside.

 Jarrod walked right past me and into the living room. "Nice place you got here. Do you live by yourself?" He asked, staring at me intensely. 

I was hesitant to answer, but I decided to as I looked at his face growing impatient. "Ah yes... I used to live with my best friend but she passed away 2 years ago, so now I'm on my own," I state as tears threatened to fall. But I decided to hold them in.

"okay enough with the small talk," Jarrod says, "let's just cut to the chase. I need you to drop the missing person's case on Jade because she won't be coming back, and it will save people the trouble of looking for her," I look at him dumbfounded, he seriously thinks he can just walk in here and tell me to drop everything and help out my new friend, hell no!

"No way in hell. I'm not going to drop the case just because you told me to." I yell.

 His jaw clenched and so did his fists. "you will do as I say or I'll kill everyone you hold dearly, even Jade's best friend Fenja," I stare at him in pure shock. 

"It's your choice sweetheart, but remember I always keep my word," he smirked as I gulped. This is soooooo not gonna end well!

Jade's P.O.V

My eyes fluttered open, and my vision was blurry. After a few seconds, it came right. I looked around to see that I'm in the same cell I was in the night before. My hands were tied above my head and I was laying on a very sad excuse for a bed.
