Devyn's POV
When I open my eyes the sun is shining through the tiny window to the side of me. Looking around the room it's the same as it was. Boring, empty, and cold. As I sit up I notice some food and a drink on the bedside table, along with a note. I feel my face screw up as I pick the paper up,
Devyn,
I came in to check on you and you were asleep. I've left some food for you, I've gone out but I'll see you when I'm back. Hope you slept well doll.
- JackP.s. I'll be careful.
I smile slightly at the extra note. I wonder how long I've been asleep if he's gone out. Shrugging I pick up the food. It was only another sandwich but I appreciated it. Taking a bite the taste of jam flooded my mouth. Jam is my favourite...he must have been following me for a while. A shiver runs down my spine. That's not something I wanted to think about. Sitting in this room it's so boring, the drawers and wardrobe are empty. I wish I'd brought a book with me... then it clicks. No one or minimal people are here... I can remember the way. Walking to the door I poked my head out and listened, I couldn't hear any voices or see anyone. Quietly I crept out and headed down the hallway. It only took me a few minutes to find it, carefully I opened the door and slipped in. I always got a rush of excitement when I get to pick a new book. Scanning the shelves I finally found one. War Of The Worlds by H. G. Wells. Pulling it to my chest I carefully snuck back out, trying not to alter anything. I get halfway before I hear footsteps. Panic rises within me. Walking faster I almost make it,
"Hey!! you!!"The voice shouts,
Slowly turning I see a man, short dark brown hair. Small face and green, wide eyes. (The guy in the pic below ;D )"what are you doing out of your room?"He smirks,
"Nothing.."I say,
He walks closer, a horrible look in his eye that I've seen too many times before. Frozen in fear he stops a few steps in front,
"w..what do you want?"I stammer,
He licks his lip as he looks me up and down, it makes my skin crawl. Makes me feel dirty, I hate it,
"just want to have some fun"He grins,
"I need to get back t..to my room.."He notices the book in my hands, I hold onto it tighter. I swallowing thickly,
"c'mon, have some fun with me and I won't tell him you left your room"He smirks,
I shake my head. He steps forward and puts an arm around my waist, his face too close to mine,
"Y..your breaking his r..rules"He frowns at me,
"what rules?"I start to push him away,
"No one, not even him is allowed to touch me, "I say, some of my strength coming through,
