Emma's POV

Day 4

I had never been away from my parents for so long. I missed them. I even missed my house helpers. I missed my mother's nagging and I missed my room. The warm fuzzy smell of my clean and warm room.

More importantly I had questions.

Why was my father involved with Phoenix?

Why didn't he pay him?

Why haven't my parents found me yet?

Who the hell is the Gargoyle king in Riverdale?

So many questions and no answers.

I was brought out of my thoughts because of Gunner. It was weird but talking to him didn't make my situation feel so bad. "If I have to be in this place any longer, I'll go crazy, even prisoners are allowed an hour in the yard." I groaned.

"Alright we don't have a yard but I do have an idea." Gunner returned with a butt load of board games in his hands. "Your saviour is here." He plopped down back on the couch holding a stack of monodeal cards in his hands.

"You're about to go down." I kicked Gunners butt in monodeal, uno, connect four and he cried like a two year old. Leo came with food in his usual demeanour and didn't say anything to both of us.

He's been acting really weird like even more than usual. He won't talk to me or look at me and yet he never leaves me. He's always around much to my annoyance. I mean if your going to shower me with your lovely presence then at least say 'hi'

"Regarde qui est ici, la lumière de ma vie." I say dryly rolling my eyes at Leo. "You're a little French cat huh" Gunner smirks. "Oui monsieur."

"Je parle un peu."

"Impressionnant, comment puis-je demander."

"That's one secret I'll never tell." He winks. "XOXO gossip girl" I reply.

"What?" He laughs. "It's gossip girl, the show."

"Never heard of it."

"What? Seriously! But it's gossip girl, Chuck and Blair! Oh come on". I jump up.

"If you're waiting for me to care, then I hope you brought some food, cause it's going to be a long time." He deadpans.

"Gunner someday you're going to go really far and when you do, I hope you stay there." I give him the sweetest fake smile. Gunner laughs and gets up to leave while Leo scoffs.

"Hey, ne me laisse pas avec cette tête de mort."

Gunner stops at the door, looking dubious as ever. "Just FYI he—" Gunner points at Leo. "Is fluent in French." All the blood drains from my body. I risked a sneak at Leo and found him looking into his phone. What I didn't miss and instead thought I'd imagined was the ghost of a smirk on his face.

After two hours of awkwardness I can positively say I enjoyed Leo's entertaining wordless conversations. However, I desperately needed a shower. I was starting to hate Leo. He can't treat me like this. I mean his mood swings were worse than a girl PMSing.
