Jordan Maston POV

I clutched the bat tightly, causing my knuckles to turn white. My breathing was heavy. All I thought about was getting to Miles in time. I've already nearly lost my parents, I couldnt lose him for good. I stalked down the dark hallway, I had no idea where I was, all I knew was that I had to find Miles. He'd protected me so much and I felt that I needed to do the same. I walked further down the corridor and found a dim light. I squeezed the bat in my hands as I quickened my pace. I made it to the door way and peaked my head inside. The room was illuminated by lights on either side of the large warehouse. I looked around and saw the remains of everyone. Evan was slumped against a pole as blood pooled around him. Next I saw Terry who was bleeding from his skull and was limp on the cold damp floor. I saw Sam and Derek with their hands tied above their heads with bullet holes in their chests. Tears sprung from my eyes as I hesitantly continued to look around the room. I saw Marco and Jace tied to chairs will pool's of water around them and a car battery and cables resided beside them, I could still see the smoke coming off their lifeless bodies. I choked back the sobs as the tears come faster. I looked to the other side of the room and saw Leo chained to a wall. Someone used him as target practice as I saw knives and other blades sticking out his body. My eyes then went to what remained of Mason. They cut him up. There was blood everywhere. My sobs caught in the back of my throat as I blinked away the tears. I walked further into the room and gasped as I saw a slumped figure struggling against ropes tied to a chair. My eyes went wide.

"Miles?" I ask raising my voice. His back was to me but he jerked up at his name. I saw him tug and strain against the ropes that bound his wrists. I looked around frantically before sprinting towards him. I made my way in front of him and his eyes stared at me as he bit down on the gag they stuffed into his mouth. His eyes wandered over my body, his eyes seemed to take in every inch of me, every part, every hair, everything in its place.

Like he was trying to memorise my features.

His eyes met mine just as I started to untie the gag. I pulled it off and he went to speak. His mouth opened and just as he was about to talk I felt cold steel up against my neck as my hands were clicked into handcuffs. I couldn't move otherwise they would cut my neck. I was pulled back into another pair of arms as Victor walked out with a gun. He was loading it with a sickly smile on his face. His eyes flicking to Miles and myself. I began to jerk left to right to try and get out of the grasp of my captors as Victor held the gun to his head. Tears were streaming down my face by this point and I could do anything. I tried to scream and yell but a line of fabric was shoved into my mouth.

"Angel. Close your eyes." I look up to Miles. I bite down hard on the fabric as my tears enter my mouth and slid down my chin. This time I was stubborn. I refused to close my eyes. I grunted and groaned against the restraints and the arms that held me in place. I looked over to Victor as he placed the gun against the side of Miles' head. He looked me dead in the eyes with a sickly sweet smile on his face. "you should have listened to me." he states as he pulls the trigger.

Miles Carson POV

An ear piercing scream erupted next to and I jerked up. I flicked on the light and saw Jordan jerk up in fright. Tears were pouring from her eyes, her whole body was shaking. "Angel?, it's okay, it was a nightmare, you're okay, it wasn't real" I ramble as I pulled her into me. She continued to shake as the tears continued. She was rocking back and forth in my arms as the door swung open. "w-what happened?" Mason asked as he sprinted over to the other side of the bed. "I don't know, she had a nightmare." I state as I looked over towards the door as Marco and Leo walked in, and Jace, Sam, Terry, Derek and Evan were standing in the doorway grief and worry on their faces. "Shorty? Can you hear me?" I looked back over to Mason as he touched Jordan's knee. She was still out of it but the tears seemed to stop. Her body was still violently shaking as I pulled her closer. "Angel?, you need to come back to us... It was a dream, you're safe." I say quietly into her ear. A few moments pass before her body stops shaking. "Angel, I want you to squeeze my arm okay? As tight as you can" I say a bit louder and she complies. He sobs slowed as she brought her knees to her chest. She nuzzled her head between her knees as she tried to slow her breathing.

Jordan Maston POV

It wasn't real. It was a dream. You're alive, everyone is okay. Breathe. In and out. It wasn't real, Miles is holding you right now. He's not dead. Leo wasn't used as target practice. Mason wasn't cut up into tiny pieces. Marco and Jace weren't electrocuted to death. Derek and Sam weren't shot to death. Terry didn't have his head bashed in. And Evan wasn't stabbed. They are okay. It was just a nightmare...

I continued to slow my breathing as much as I could. My head was resting on my knees as I felt everyone's eyes on me. But I couldn't look at anyone. The dream was so realistic that I couldn't deal with the fact that they were alive. That we were somewhat safe. I felt the arms around my waist slide me closer to him. I opened my eyes and looked down and saw the bangages on his wrists. I closed them tightly as a few more tears escaped and fell on his hands. I felt his muscles tense as he pulled me between his legs. "Angel, you're okay. It was just a nightmare." he says as I felt him kiss my shoulder. My body was tense at his touch but began relaxing. I let out a long breath as I unwrapped my arms from my knees and slowly looked up. I met Mason's eyes. His held fear and pain for me. I sat up slightly and I looked around the room. Mason was sitting on the edge of the bed, Marco and Leo were leaning against the wall and the others were crowded around the door. I looked back down at my hands. "I'm sorry I woke everyone..." I say quietly. Miles squeezed me as he kissed the side of my head. "we're just glad your alright Jords." I looked up and saw Marco smiling at me. I smiled wearily back at him and looked to Leo. He had his hands in his pockets and was looking at me, he gave me a small smile. "alright, guys let her have some space, she'll come out when she's ready." I heard Sam say as he and the others walked out. Marco and Leo followed in suite. "Are you sure you're okay Shorty?" I looked up to Mace. "I guess... I'm sorry I woke everyone... It was just... It felt too real..." I mumble lowly. "what was it about?" he asks. I sigh. "I don't know, I was walking around and came to this huge room... Everyone was dead and Victor Shot My- in the head and he made me watch" I state slowly. "we're okay. And we are going to kill Victor before he has a chance to do anything okay?" he says. I nod in response as he Kisses my forehead and stands up. "come out when you're ready." he says with a smile. He leaves. I turned around on the spot and placed my legs over Miles' and picked up his hands, I fiddled with the bandages in silence. "Angel." I looked up at him as he removed one of his hands from mine and cupped my face. "I'm sorry I woke you..." I say quietly as I averted my gaze from his. I quickly glanced back up as he pulled his other hand out of mine and snaked it around my waist and pulled me into him. He removed his hand from my face and wrapped it around the other arm around my waist." you don't have to apologise, I'm here for you. I love you. I'm not going anywhere. Especially now that I have you to protect me." he says as he picks up his hand and cupped my face. I looked him in the eyes as I gave him a sad smile as he pulled my head towards him. His lips brushed against mine, the kiss was light, and calm. It felt that it was more to signify that I wasn't alone. While It was passionate it was also evenly gentle. We pulled away and rested our heads on one another. "common, we should eat something... Besides, I still owe you a date, even though I can't make it up to you with dinner, we can go shopping, seeing we don't have any clothes. There's also a gadget shop near by, that I think you'll love. I looked up to him.  "gadgets?" I ask and he chuckles.
"yes." he replies. "what are we wait for then?" I ask. He makes me happy and feel safe. I can't thank him enough for that.

A/n sorry for the short chapter. I wrote this and wasn't going to post it. But I wanted to post something today for valentines day. My valentines day was spent getting tattoos with my best friend. What did you do? Anyways. Thoughts on the chapter? This chapter is more of a filler and the next one will be the make-up date at the mall and a special gadget shop! Please let me know what you think.
