You Found Me

Chapter 17 (not yet edited)

Breathe in, breathe out.

Relax.

I have a strange feeling that this is already my time. Even though Trent and Cal are there to protect me, I just don't feel so safe. I feel like there's something bad going to happen, not just to me but to the three of us.

Josh was standing holding two plastic bags in one hand. He instantly dropped it when he saw the three of us standing. Trent didn't turn around so his back is still facing the door. He slowly walked towards us and when he reached me, he turned around facing Josh. He's like shielding me from him. I move a little to my right side to see what's going on. Ed and Jon arrived and there's a woman whom I don't recognize walking behind them. The woman looked at us then whispered something to Jon. Trent looked at me and lowered his mouth to my ear.

"Just do what they say, trust me, okay?" He whispered. I nodded my head then he faced them again. Jon didn't stop walking until he reached us.

"Turn around with your hands on your backs, " Jon commanded us.

We did what we were told. Jon started tying up my hands. I felt him sniffing my neck which irritates me a lot. I wanted to kick him in the groin but I didnt because I knew my life was at risk right now. Jon turned me around to face him when he was done tying my hands. He started to lean in closer. My eyebrows were creased together in anger. In that moment, I wanted to hit him right across his face, kick his groin, stomp on his feet, everything that could hurt him. He was still leaning in closer because I kept stepping back until I hit the post in the middle of the room. I didn't exactly know if he was going to kiss me or not, and the fact that he was not complaining on why on earth I kept backing off.

When his mouth was only an inch away from mine, I closed my eyes because I don't want to see his face so close to mine. I'm shutting down all my feelings so that when he kisses me, I'd feel nothing. Hopefully. I'm waiting and waiting and waiting until a strong wind hit my face and Jon shouted something I couldn't decipher.

I opened my eyes to see that Trent was on top of Jon. Trent was constantly punching him on the face as Ed was trying to get Trent off of him. Jon didn't even bother to fight back. I look around the room and saw Cal had passed out lying on the floor. Or he was just faking it. I don't know. Josh and the woman were talking so far from us. It seems that they're so close, probably it's his sister? The woman was wearing red velvet silk top matching with black pencil skirt and a black peep toe 4-inches heels. Her hair is black, straight, and up to her mid waist. She's pretty. But she doesn't look like Josh or Jon.

Trent was already calm now and Ed resumed to tie his hands together. We were demanded to sit on the ground. I sat first then Trent sat beside me. The woman stared at us and walked towards us. She stopped four steps away from us. She raised her eyebrows and smirked at Trent.

"Well, there's the Russel who survived," she continued smirking. Trent didn't say anything. So she looked at me. My heart raced and I didn't know what to do so I stared back at her. My not-so-innocent stare.

"You probably don't know me," she stepped a little closer. "I'm Celeste, uhh.." she opened her mouth then closed it again.

"She's our mother," Josh interrupted and Jon nodded.

I raised my eyebrows at them since I don't, I really don't believe that she is their mother. She looks so young, probably she's in her late twenties.

And then I felt like someone flicked me on my forehead. If Celeste is Josh's mother, then she is the mistress of my dad and Josh and Jon are brothers so they're my stepbrothers. But why on earth would Jon tried to kiss me?! That's so gross.
