Masked Feelings

Chapter 93: Window

Athena's Point of view

"We need to get them to notice us" I breathed. I didn't wait for then to agree with me because I knew that they wouldn't. I started hitting the window loud enough to attract the attention of the policemen. "Help!" I shouted. My eyes moved to Jace, who was standing on his porch. He looked panic and angry. The policemen turned to look at me. Then I watched as realization started settling in.

"Shit!" Rose cursed. Jace has closed the door and we could hear his steps in the house. The cops were running to the door.

"He doesn't know that you guys are here" I told them. Damian put himself in front of me as we watched Jace walked up the stairs. His eyes widened when he saw Damian, Rose and Dean with me. He most probably thought that I was alone. My eyes moved to an object in his hand.

A gun.

"Why?" he asked. He sounded so hurt. It was as if I betrayed him. "Why do you have to complicate everything?" he asked and shook his head in disbelief.

"Just let us go, Jace" Rose begged from beside me. The latter scoffed. He brought the gun to his head, making us all take a deep breath. We were all scared. He was tapping the gun against his forehead, as if trying to get an idea.

"I have to think" he snapped.

"Jace" Rose started again. But Jace lifted the gun and Pointe it at her.

No.

"If you talk again, I'll shoot you" Jace spat. He put the gun down, then leant against the wall. "What the fuck am I supposed to do now? Maybe I should kill you all" he said to himself.

"Sir! Let us in" I could head a policeman shout from outside.

"On three, we run to the room" Dean whispered loud enough for us to hear. We all nodded while Jace clenched and unclenched his jaws. He was shaking. That was the scary side of him. "One" Dean started. "Two. Three" at three, we all ran to the room. Jace stood there, not knowing what to do. Damian closed the door and stood against it.

"Lock it!" Rose shouted, her hands over her heart.

"Help me!" Dean ordered. Rose helped him to push the drawer against the door again. Damian moved from there and helped them.

"Athena!" Jace shouted. "I love you" he said. He sounded so sick. "Please, come with me" I screamed when he shot at the door. There was a hole in the door now. Luckily we were no more standing in front of it. "I need you by my side" he continued. "Dead or alive, I need you" at his words, goosebumps rose on my skin. He shot again.

"Sit on the floor" Damian whispered. We all did.

"We're four and he's only one" Dean said while shaking his head. "Why the hell can't we take him down?" he questioned.

"Firstly, we're not taking the risk of fighting him. I don't want anyone hurt" I told him. I was going to open my mouth to state that Jace has a gun but Rose beat me to it.

"Secondly, he has a fucking gun. A gun outcomes us" Rose told him as if he was stupid. Well, he kinda was. But he still came to save me.

Well, try to save me. Because right now, we were all in a fucked up situation. We all flinched when Jace shot at the door again.

"He's so stupid. If he keeps shooting, he'll finish all the bullets" Dean mumbled as if it was a bad thing.

"Is it a bad thing?" Rose asked in disbelief.

"For him, yeah" Dean said.

"Think about us, Dumbass!" I exclaimed while shaking my head.

"What about the windows?" Damian asked suddenly. It seemed like he was the only one trying to get us out of here. I shook my head.

"He blocked them" I told him.

"With?"

"wood" I said. Damian's eyes widened. He slowly let go of me and motioned me to stay where I was. He motioned Dean to follow him to the window.

"If you break in my fucking house, I'm killing each fucking one of them!" Jace shouted like a maniac to the cops. Rose was shaking in the corner of the room. I crawled to her. She smiled sympathetically to me. I knew that she was faking it. I knew my best friend. I knew that she was freaking out.

"We're going to get out of here" I told her. She nodded, not believing the words that I was saying though. "Come" I said, trying to get to the other side of the bed so that we'd be safer and closer to Dean and Damian. She nodded, then we both crawled slowly. We were scared that Jace would hear us and he'd begin shooting.

"What are they doing?" Rose asked as she stared at Damian taking off the curtains. We leant against the wall.

"Trying to get out through the window" I told her.

"But if we jump, we die" Rose stuttered with wide eyes.

"If we stay here, we die too" I told her. I watch as Damian took off  a piece of wood. It seemed to be difficult to do so. Dean kept pulling on one and Damian had to help him.

BOOM!

We all turned to the door. Jace was trying to break in. I don't know what he was using but it seemed to work as the door was cracked. The drawer wouldn't protect us for long. With a determined mind, I stood up and walked to the guys. I started pulling on the chunk of wood. Rose came to help too and we all smiled proudly when it came off.

BOOM!

"One more" Dean said and we all started pulling on the last piece of wood, ignoring the constant cracking of the door.

"Yes" Damian breathed as he threw the last piece on the bed.
