Beth

Chapter 4 - Get Away

Jordan's P.O.V.

There is high tension in the room, I should have known this is what would have happened. She's not that same forgiving girl. She has boundaries and she's been building her boundaries against them for two years. The boys all look tired and remorseful, Ken looks a bit weary, like he needs a glass of water. Can't blame him, this is a lot to take in.

"I'll go check on her, make sure she's okay" I say and begin to stand.

"No Jordan, let me go."

"That's not really a good idea Bennett, there are sharp things in that room, she could kill you and brainwash us. Actually more importantly, she'll kill me for letting you in the first place."

Is this boy crazy?

"Please Jordan, I have to do this. You heard her, no one knows her more than I do. Let me go."

"Okay man, don't make me regret this."

"One last thing though."

"What?"

"Lock the door after I enter so she can't walk out."

"Do you want her to kill both of us?"

"Please Jordan, just do it."

"Alright, whatever you're planning better work."

So I follow him down the corridor to my room, he walks in and I shut the door and lock it. God please don't let her kill him. Please don't let her kill me.

Liz's P.O.V.

"We are the crystal gems, we'll always save the day." I'm so absorbed with singing the theme song that I don't notice someone else enter the room until he sings along with me.

"And if you think we can't, we'll always find a way." He sings. I keep quiet and stare at him. What the fuck is he doing here?

"That's why the people of this world, believe in. Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl and STEVEN." He finishes and sits by me on the bed. I move back a bit.

"Is there a reason why you're in here?" I ask bluntly.

"Oh, I just came to talk."

Has this boy actually lost his damn mind? I look at him like he's grown a second head.

"Well I do not have anything to say to you, now if you will excuse me."

I get up from the bed and walk to the door I try to open the door but instead I find myself struggling with the door handle.

"It's locked genius, from the outside." He says softly.

"Wait, did he lock me in here with you so you could 'talk' to me?"

"Yes."

"Oh, JORDAN OPEN THIS DOOR RIGHT NOW!"

"Liz, Liz I'm so sorry but please listen to him, I'm begging you please." Jordan begs from directly outside the door.

"I swear when I get out of here, I'm going to hit you so hard." I whisper. I turn back around and sit on the bed.

"Speak."

"Elizabeth can you stop acting like we're strangers?"

"I have no regard for what you speak of."

"How's your family?"

"That's none of your business."

"Still annoying as ever?" he laughs, "I bet you ran unto that plane."
