Calum's POV:

Ash and I duck behind a dumpster in a near by alley, hoping to not be bothered. I pull my phone out of my tight jeans, scrolling through the contacts in search of Luke's number.

I press the phone to my ear and cross my fingers as it rings.

It rings

and rings

and rings.

"Hey it's Luke-"

"Luke!" I yell, realived he's okay.

"-leave a message at the beep." he finishes. Fuck, I am an idiot.

"What is he saying?! Where are they?!" Ashton exclaims.

"Uh" I sheepishly look down. "That was his voice mail.

"Shit." Ashton mumbles. "Try Michael."

I nod in response and tap on his name, praying that he will answer.

Michael's POV:

"J-James? He fucking did this!? Why would he do this? Why would he hurt you?!?" I yell getting angry. I watch as she flinches, and my eyes immediately soften. Tears well into her beautiful eyes and she takes in a shakey breath.

"Sam...I-I'm sorry." I quietly say. She just nods and stares at the floor while I sit there, guilty. I feel something vibrated against my butt and quickly call to Luke.

"Luke! Luke my phone is going off, get it!" I turn and let him grab it out of my back pocket.

"Hello?! Calum!" he excitedly says."We don't know, we are in the back of a truck...no! someone took us! Uh, James we think. Yeah, Sam is here too and she said it was James. Yeah, um, hang on." Luke pulls the phone away.

"Sam, do you have any idea where they are taking us?" Luke gently asks. She slowly nods.

"Um, they are taking us to his dad's restaurant, uh, I think it's called Frank's Diner..." she answers.

"Calum? Yeah we think he is taking us to Frank Diner, ever heard of it? Okay, well find it. And hurry, please." his voice quivers on the end as he hangs up.

Sam buries her head into my neck and i can feel her wet tears against my skin.

"Sam, hey, it's gonna be okay. Ashton and Calum are on their way, they will get us out of here okay? i won't let anything happen to you. I promise. " I softly say.

She raises her head and studies my face.

"Why?" her forehead crinkles, "Why are you doing this? You could easily just leave me behind and go with Luke.." she trails off.

"Sam-"

"He's in love with you Sam!" Luke irritably blurts out.

"Luke!" i growl, snapping my head in his direction.

"W-what?" Sam asks barely above a whisper.

"Well we are either going to die or kill James! This is the whole reason we are out here!" luke yells at me, his face redening.

"What does he mean?" Sam asks with confused eyes.

"Uh, we kinda..oh god this is a mess. " I groan. The truck is jerked forward, causing us be thrown to the side.

"Shit." Luke mumbled holding his head.

"W-we stopped, oh god, Michael what are we gonna do?" Sam asks frantically.

"Guys, just pretend to still be knocked out, then uh, we could run as soon as they turn away?" I say it more as a question. We start to hear people slamming the doors closed. "Okay down now." I whisper while laying back in the position I was before. My breathing was rapid and I tried to slow it down. My heart was beating so fast I feared that they would be able to hear it pounding against my chest. I hear people mumbling things before they nosily push open the door.

"Shit man, they are still out, why are they still unconscious?" an unfamiliar voice asks.

"Who cares? Just makes it easier for us to move them." another voice replies, a voice I know.
