Laurence's POV:
I open my eyes and  slowly sit up in the small cot that barely seemed to fit in my rectangular cell. I look around and see that there is no guard out side my cell patrolling. What has it been, Another day, or maybe a week, maybe even a month, who knows how long I've been in here. Another day, like the rest where I sit here in this windowless dim room, it feels like ages since I've last seen the sun. I take a small pebble and scratch a line on the wall, just to show myself how many days I've been here, but I probably been here for even longer. With the passing of time, I feel like I grow more restless, I want to find a way to escape but from what Lilly says, it isn't that easy. I slowly push myself onto my feet and pace the floor, to keep myself busy and in hopes that I would think of some way to make it out. I can't stay here for that long, I have heard of how people go mad after some time after being contained by themselves. I put my hands in my pockets and take out the engagement ring that I was planning to give to (Y/n), I clutched the ring in my hands. Without her the world around me seems more than a blur, like I'm missing a part of myself without her. With every passing hour, I feel as if a little part of me die, with every day I feel like I am rotting in this cell. With one question in my head what have I done for this to happen?
I look outside and see a guard walk up to my cell, "Your coming with me..."

Lilly's POV:
How am I going to tell her... I thought as I opened the door to my apartment. (Y/n) was sitting on the couch when I walked inside she got up and walked over to me.
"Is there anything new?" She asked and I shook my head.
"On finding our cousin, no.."
"I mean about Laurence? Did they find him yet?"
"Y/n, why don't you relax for today take your mind off him for a bit..." I said trying to avoid the topic altogether.
"I'll relax when I know for sure that he is safe, till then I will try my best even if I'm in captivity to make sure he ok. I just want to make sure he's safe I owe him that, to say the least." She said and I looked down.
"Y/n..."
"I know I should take my mind off this, but I can't, I wish to see him again... I love him, and I will do whatever it takes just to get to hold him close to me once more... I just want to open my eyes and see him next to me, I want to hold him in my arms and tell him that I'm-"
"(Y/n)!.. I'm sorry... There is something I need to tell you...I wanted to protect you from this, I wish there was a way I could have stopped it... I heard the news today, from Michael. Something bad happened and there was an accident, Laurence is dead... He's dead... I'm so sorry, I know you love him so much and no one should ever go through this, I guess the best thing for now is to hope that he is resting in peace..." I said as her face turned white, I walked over to hug her she just stood there not moving tears flowing down her face... "I'm so sorry..." The second I let her go she fell to the floor. She was like a doll, her eyes seemed dull, her skin pale like porcelain. I helped her up then walked her to her room and sat her on her bed, even after a few minutes she just stayed there not moving. "Y/n... I told you I'm sorry, just please, please do something, speak, look away from me, anything..." I paused for a second but she was still in this zombie-like state. "Very well then... I'm going to leave, I'll be back in a bit to check up on you.." I said as I walked out of the room and then closed the door, I covered my mouth with my hand as tears rolled down my face, 'What have I done?'
