I tell Trey what I saw and a plan to go along with it. We just need one thing. Keys.
He 'brilliantly' suggest we take some. Great idea Trey. Why didn't I think of that? (note the sarcasm)
Anyway, I think what we came up with is briliant. I just hope it's brilliant enough to work. *sigh* Oh well. Won't know until we try.
Our escape plan goes into play immediately.
I hear my door open. Chow time. Before he can run away, I stop him.
"Wait!" He hezitates enough for me to keep on going without the door cutting me off. "C-can you tell me how long I've been here? Please?"
"I am not authorized to tell you that." I hear the door start to close.
"Were you told not to?"
He stops and stays silent for a moment. "No."
"Then why can't you at least ease SOME of my pain and tell me? C'mon. What's it gonna do? Seriously."
He hezitates ao long that I start to think he'll slam the door. "Nineteen days."
This shocks me. "Gosh..." Nineteen days since last seeing Ethan's face. I inwardly groan, keeping most of my pain to myself.
I hear him sigh. "Look, I'm sorry. I didn't sign up for this. They offered a job and I took it."
I nod. "I understand...It's just...excruciating to not see my mate. Not that you'd understand," I say sadly.
"Well..." he seems hezitant. Like he's about to do something that he shouldn't do. "Maybe you could tell me?"
I look up, eyes wide. Even though I'm blind, I still sence him faltering at my sudden movement. "R-really?"
He stays silent.
"Okay, well...do you wanna stand? Or come in and sit? Not that there's anyrhing to sit on." I mumble the last sentence to myself, but hear him chuckle in the slightest.
"Um, I think I should stand."
I nod and stand. Starting to pace.
"Well, a mate is like...fairytale true love. Only this is much more effective. When you have two people that are mates, they're...sorta..one. One feela what the other feels. they understand eachother like no one else. If one is to be a selfish jerk and decides to have...'it' with another, it puts the other in the worst kind of pain. It's literally like having kidney stones in your heart. You feel like crumbling. But, lastly, if one is to die, the other will die inside with them. Most of the time, they commit suicide. Not being able to bear the loss." I pause. Oh, Ethan. I hope he's alright. I shake my head. Clearing my thoughts. "Anyway, do you understand?" I look toward him.
"Sorta. What do you mean? Is the loss THAT terrible?"
I sigh and think for a moment. "You know when you lose a family member or friend? The loss is very hard? Well, for mates, it's way worse. One cannot live without his or her mate. They are bonded at the soul."
"Wow," he says sorta in a daze.
"And that's exactly what your 'pals' are gonna do to me. They might just want to hurt Ethan, but they'll hurt me in the process. And if you understand anything of what I just told you...I'll never let rhat happen. I wouldn't be able to bear the pain of his loss...but also that I led him to it. I would be one of those many who die from sorrow."
Everything is silent. I would've thought he'd left if not that I didn't hear the door.
After what feels like an eternity, he speaks up. "I'll get you two together."
I look up at him, suprised.
"I promise." And with that, the door slams shut.

Okay, so I just wanted to update early and tell you that I did this all JUST NOW!!! Crazy right?
I'll be back with more soon.
