Darkness

Chapter 5: Okay? Okay.

Julia's POV

I couldn't sleep. I mean how could I? Laying on this cheap matress with springs coming out of it poking on my back and I'm held captive by some psycho name Harry.

At least he's attractive. Hey I'm not going to lie, but that doesn't change the fact that he kidnapped me. What would be better, here or at my house with my parents yelling at each other.

I can't decide.

While I was laying down, I was thinking about what Harry said about me having powers. He must be thinking of someone else. I don't have powers! Why would I? I'm not that special!

That Zayn guy though, he was the total opposite of Harry. He's super nice and his smile is just..wow. Maybe he's held captive here like me and Harry just made him his servant. To be honest, I feel sorry for him.

I want to get out of here soon, and maybe Zayn can come with me too. I doubt he wants to stay here.

I was interupted by my thoughts as the door opens to reveal Zayn holding a tray with an apple, bread and a cup of water on it.

"What a lovely meal," I mumbled thinking that he didn't hear me, but I was wrong.

"I would've made you something, but Harry wouldn't let me," he said.

He sat the tray on the floor infront of me, "Maybe later tonight I can sneak in an actual meal for you."

I looked up at him, "Wouldn't you get in trouble? I would hate for you to get in trouble."

"Don't worry. I wouldn't mind if I got in trouble as long as you're okay and not starving," he smiled.

I got up and gave him a hug. He was hesitant at first, then he wrapped his arms around me, "Thank you," I said to him.

"For what?" he asked.

"For being so nice to me. You're the only person here who is," I say.

"If you ever wanna talk about anything, you can talk to me about it, okay?" he asked.

I looked up at him and nod my head, "Okay," I said smiling.

It was quiet for a bit and we were in the middle of the room hugging. Right now, it feels nice to hug someone after what happened in the past few days.

After a few minutes later, he spoke up, "You should do that more often."

I pulled away from him, but his arms were still around me, "Do what?"

"Smile. It's cute," he said. I felt my cheeks heat up, "It's hard to smile in this situation," I say.

He sighed, "I know. I'll help us out of here. Somehow,"

Just by hearing him say 'us' made my heart beat faster.

Why am I acting like this around him? I just met him! It's probably because he's the only person here who's actually treating me like a human being.

We weren't caring at the moment that anyone would come through the door until a familiar voice spoke.

"Well, well, well. Aren't you two something," I looked over and immediatly let go of Zayn once I saw that Harry was standing in the doorway.

Shit.
