After sitting in darkness for what felt like forever, I finally realize that these could be the final moments of my life. All-in-all, what’s the chance of Liz, Carlie and I escaping? We have no hope of ever leaving this black hole of a room and I’m tired of it. What life is this?
“You ok Jordyn? You’ve been awfully quiet,” Carlie mumbles softly.
I want to say that I’m fine, but instead a loud strangled sound escapes my throat.
“We were going to name them Darcy and Darren.” I whimper.
“What?” Liz questions.
With a large lump in my throat, I sigh/cry, “If we were to have babies, they were going to be Darcy and Darren Styles.”
“That’s cute!” Liz coos and I inwardly scream. They don’t get it; they don’t understand!
“Don’t you get it?” I sob. “We’re never getting out of here!”
“Don’t say that,” Liz chastises.
“Just stop!” I bark. “Optimism won’t save us Elizabeth; all it has done is just giving us false hope.”
“Jordyn, stop,” Carlie crows softly. “Let Liz be optimistic. That’s all we have left. We could either be happy or depressed like you,”
“But-”
“Just stop,” She finalizes. I sit silently while my eyes glance around the pitch black room. What are we supposed to do in darkness; party?
I do hope that Pear and Elle are safe. They are our only hope of escaping; unless Snake decides to kill us first.
“Jordyn!”
“Did I say that aloud?” I question bitterly.
“What- no, just no. Look at me! You too Liz,” Carlie exclaims.
“In case you don’t remember, I can’t see you Carlie,”
“Jordyn just turn to my voice, God damn it!”
I turn like I was requested to do and gasp. There was an extremely dim light coming off something- I just couldn’t see! But there was a moderately loud female voice echoing into our space.
“Perrie Edwards and Eleanor Calder- kidnapped more than a month ago- were found at a motel near-”
“It wasn’t a café,” Carlie murmurs in relief.
“Zayn Malik- Ms. Edwards fiancé, had informed the authorities of the girls’ return. Ms. Calder and Ms. Edwards both agreed to give any information they had to the police,”
“They’re safe!” Liz hums. I let out a relieved sigh; my girls are safe!
“They won’t be there much longer if we have say in it,” Perrie’s smooth voice echoes into my ears. “We know exactly where the others are and if Snake knows what’s best for him- he’ll stay where he is.”
“I don’t know if Carlie, Jordyn or Liz can here this,” Elle timidly adds. “But the boys love you and we love you. Stay strong, don’t lose hope. We’ll get there as fast as we can!”
“I love them,” I whimper.
“Don’t we all?” Liz responds cheerfully at the same moment a booming voice rang throughout the room.
“That blonde bitch thinks she can threaten me? Fine! We’re staying here, but I’d like to see her come her to save nothing.” Snake roars, causing me to flinch.
“Does that mean he’s going to kill us?” Carlie questions through her teeth.
My mood from earlier returned as I starkly reply, “We’re already close to death as it is; we’re practically roommates with the guy!”
“Jordyn!”
“It’s the truth!” Liz exclaims in my defense. “Car, you’re extremely sick and it’s only a matter of time before Jordyn and I get it too! This room will be our grave; I rather leave on my own terms,”
“Liz!” I cry. “That was deep.”
“I’m not daft, Jordyn. I do have thoughts,” She snaps.
I silence, not wanting to make Liz angrier. But on the inside, I was slightly proud. Liz was “growing” up and she was taking control.
I just wonder how long it’s going to last.
A/N:
I’m so sorry for the long wait! I had really bad writer’s block for this chapter, so I do hope you enjoy! ^w^
