Ethan's POV

Her soft hands traced against my torso, focused on every part of my body. Her eyes darting straight into mine, sending chills down my spine.

"Why Ethan?" She whispered.

"Why what?" I furrowed my brows.

"Why couldn't you?" Her once beautiful smile, turned into an angered expression.

"What do you mean, Maddie?"

"Why couldn't you save me..?" My heart stopped.

"W-what..?"

"WHY WEREN'T YOU THERE!?" She screamed and cried.

"I-I.."

I watched as she slowly disappeared from me. I tried to touch where she was, as if it were to bring her back. But I felt nothing, just the soft fabric of my sheets.

"MADELINE!" My eyes shot open.

I swore under my breathe, and looked at the time. It was still 3:45 am, and I decided to just take a cold shower.

I walked into the bathroom, and almost screamed at the sight of her in the mirror. She touched all edges, as if looking for a way to get out.

"M-Madeline..?"

"Help me!" She banged on the mirror.

"Calm down, I'll help you!"

"Ethan, honey, are you ok?" My mom knocked on the door.

"I'm fine mom!" I directed my view to the door.

"Alright, I'm going back to bed."

I looked back at the mirror. Gone. She was gone. I ran my fingers through my hair. What the fuck was happening to me? Hallucinations.

I clenched my jaw, and entered the shower. The cold water sent tingly feelings throughout my body, and I let my tears fall with the it.

I needed her back.

"Dude are you okay?" Grayson put his hand on my shoulder.

I glared up at him. He slowly removed his hand from my shoulder, definitely getting the message. Today was the day that we were going to get Madeline back, and I couldn't wait to kill Ambrose for ruining my life like this.

"Is everyone ready?" I tucked the gun in my pocket.

"Yeah." They all said in unison.

"Alright, Cameron and Alex in one car." I ordered "Grayson, and Aaron in another."

"And you'll ride alone to get Madeline." Cameron finished.

"Yep." I nodded.

"Let's go." We all got into our cars, and sped down the street.

I couldn't help but feel a rush of excitement. I've dreaded these past few days without Madeline, knowing that she wasn't safe. I just couldn't live with myself knowing that she was probably in danger because of me.

Madeline's POV

"Let the games begin!" Ambrose's voice boomed throughout the empty room.

"What?" I raised an eyebrow.

"News has gone out that your boy toy will be coming here," he chuckled "it's time for your little torture show."

Suddenly, two men entered, grabbed me by my arms, and dragged me out. I couldn't help but feel a rush of excitement. He was coming! He was going to end all of this! I couldn't help but smile a bit as I was being dragged into another room.

"Have fun princess." One of the men said before closing the door.

It was some type of small square room. There was only a small tv, and the only view was the room where I was before.

"A security room?" I thought to myself.

I shrugged, and sat back in my chair. My heart was doing backflips just thinking about seeing Ethan again.

I couldn't wait...
