I hear Jonathon's light snoring and steady breathing as he slept. He sounded peaceful.
I, on the other hand, felt restless. I had too much on my mind.
What happened to Marcel? Is he safe with Tony? I wonder how Tony's doing. When is he going to come get me?

Do I want Tony to get me? I miss my old bedroom and everyone but I felt so much more comfortable here with Jon.
Jonathon Dennis.
Marcel had told me his full name.

"Hey," a masculine voice called out from the hallway. I was brushing my teeth with a spare toothbrush Jon had given me. I turned to the side, only for the foamy toothpaste to spill from my mouth. I cursed under my breath and finished up my routine.
"Dude," the voice called again, without any pesky toothpaste to get in my way this time, I looked at the person vocalizing. It was a huge male, definitely over 6 feet tall. He had dirty blonde hair, icy blue eyes, and a slight scruff.
