I lied down and let out a sigh. I closed my eyes. I imagined what it would be like to live out in the world instead of being trapped here. It would be great. Just to escape all of this. This place is nothing but a living hell. I can imagine it. Parties, no worries, hanging out with friends and seeing my family again. I miss Gemma and Anne. At night all i hear are screams but they have gotten quieter. It's weird how quiet it has actually gotten. This cant be right. I haven't seen many people in their cells as i pass by to go get my checkups. I haven't seen many people at all. This is all confusing. Everything that is going on. Jared has been too quiet, Ariana hates my guts, and i am confused. Nothing is making sense. Everything is all happening too fast. And this plan thats going on is gonna make it worse but i have to go along with it. Not just for me, but for Ariana because if i don't do my part, then the whole plan is ruined and Ariana will never be free, and she will see her family. My eyes opened as i tried to figure one little thing out. Ariana's family. She doesn't have one.

Ariana's POV

I stared at the white cushioned wall. My heart pounding,

making my head ache. It's Jack. He doesn't know what he is doing to all these people. He doesn't understand. Harry doesn't know and I'm not sure about Jared. It's too much. It always pops into my head. What if he is trying to prove something? He should't do this. He is a sick man. He can't keep doing this. Harry could be next and it terrifies me. I need to talk to him. But first, Harry.

???'s POV

"You think this idea will really work?" I asked.

"Yes. It's perfect"

"What if it doesn't work?"

"It will"

The thought terrifies me. It shouldn't be done like this. They are taking this too far. Everybody is going insane. It's getting out of hand.

"I don't like this-"

"It's my idea and if you don't like it, then count yourself out but just know that i wont be there to save you anymore"

I stared at the light above me. I can't die. But i cant let them do this. I know more about whats going around in this atmosphere more than they think. Everybody has a plan, but me. I need to make one, quickly.

"Fine" i smiled. "I'll do it"

"Good."

That evil grin weakens me. That evil eye horrifies me. Everything about this person is evil and it scares me. I quickly got up without making eye contact and left the room.

Harry's POV

It's finally night time. I could see through the window. The sky is no longer bright blue. It is black, with the moon shining bright, that you could see the hallways almost clearly. The time matters to me. Thats when Spencer takes over and he checks on us, well actually me to see if the plan is working out fine. It's been about three days and so far i haven't gotten into any trouble, and Jack hasn't seen me all week. The plan is going perfectly. The bonus is that Jared is actually leaving me alone. He hasnt talked to me or gotton on my nerves.

"H-harry" a voice says. The voice sounds familiar, like i haven't heard in in forever. "Ariana?" I ask. She nodded, sniffling. "Yes, it's me" she said weakly. She looked so different with her hair down. Letting her long soft hair lay on her shoulders. Her voice sounded very weak. There is something that changed her. She looked skinnier is all that i have noticed. Unhealthy. At lunch, she rarely eats. I haven't heard her voice in a while. the sound of it almost brought me to tears. If Spencer wouldn't talk to me, then i would have nobody. Like Ariana. "Harry we need to talk" she said. "It's Jack" she sat down and cleared her throat. I looked at her. Fear filled me. His name makes me sick.

She sighed, and no words came out of her mouth. Ariana looked scared. She covered her mouth and let out sobs. "Ariana are you okay? What's wrong?" I put my arm around her waist. "Jack-he's-" she sobbed more. "He's what? Ari, breathe" i patted her on the back. She seemed to calm down, but when she lifted up her head, her eyes met mine. The moon showing from the skylight was the only thing that made it visible to see anything. Her eyes looked like a darker color. She seemed lost.

"Jack what?" I asked her as she wiped her tears.

She sighed and shook her head.

"Have you noticed all these people disappearing?" Her face had a blank expression.

I nodded. "Has Jack bothered you?"

"No" i bit my lip, thinking of what's going on.

"Well do you get it?"

I shook my head. "Well obviously not" she said in an attitude. I stared at her. I smiled at the thought of sassy Ariana.

"Stop smiling" she playfully punched my shoulder. "Ow" i joked as the smile wiped off my face and she laughed. I smiled again, watching her laugh. "I missed your laugh" crap. That was meant to be said in my head. Nice move Styles. She smiled at me. "I missed your smile too" i said. I just can't keep my mouth shut. "I missed you" she said as she bit her lip and stared into my eyes and i stared into hers.

I wanted to hug her so bad but i just don't know what she will think. Before anymore thinking i could do, her arms were wrapped around me. I smiled, closed my eyes and hugged her back, having this beautiful girl in my arms.

I opened my eyes as the door shot open and i saw a figure but i couldn't see who because of my watery eyes. Ariana quickly let go of me but grabbed my hand and held it tightly.

I rubbed my eyes and wiped the tears. I saw who the figure was.

"Harry?" Ariana whispered

"Yeah?"

"Isn't that..."

"Yes it is" i smiled but Ariana looked frightened.
