Chapter 21

Jerome's POV

I ran down the long spooky hallways, clutching Mitch's wrist.

I dragged him along, he didn't even make an effort to pick up his pace.

"Mitch, buddy, we gotta do this!"

We stopped and I looked at him, making sure he understood that I was serious about this.

He stared back, blankly, without saying a word. His brown milky eyes were dark, as his eyes slowly drifted along my facial features. He studied me, but continued to stay silent.

"Hey.." I waved a hand in front of his face.

It didn't faze him at all, so I did what I had to.

I freaking picked him up, and ran down the hallways myself.

He just stares into my eyes as my moving feet rock him up and down. A small little hair jumps over his eyes as we move.

It was adorable, but he's not acting like himself, so I'm not going to treat him like himself.

Mitch's POV

Here I am, face to face to Seto. I've heard that he's fond of Witchcraft, and that he works side by side with Dawn.

If he's here, that must mean we are at the right house.

"Where's Adam!!??"

I yelled.

He blinked slowly, and looked at me with a simple expression.

"He's not here if that's what you are asking."

"Not here!?"

I tried not to believe him, but something was convincing me that he was telling the truth.

I clenched my fists and looked around the dark shady room.

"Where's Jerome..?"

"Somewhere."

He turned on a TV which barely produced enough light for me to see.

Jerome was carrying.. Me?

He had a hurt expression, which made me want to be there... Holding him- comforting him.

Before I could speak, I noticed the paleness in my eyes. My eyes were a pale tan, with a blank feeling.

"Who's controlling my body... Are you!?"

Seto shook his head slowly.

"Then who is?!"

He grinned evilly.

"Well... Maybe this will help you put a finger on it-

You never asked where Dawn was."

Rob's POV

(Sorry for all the POV changes)

Me and Preston went out to see some movie that he has been wanting to see for months. He just took me with him as an excuse to go see it.

And he calls ME the Cactus Jones...

He skipped out of the movie theater doors, happily.

"That was the best movie ever!"

He cheered.

I just kind of nodded and agreed. Even though I was asleep for most of it.

He looked at me with his bold eyes and said, "You're cute when you're sleeping by the way."

I laughed and rolled my eyes.

"Well you're cute all the time."

I said, while giving me a hug.

He snuggled his cheek against mine, causing a soothing warmth.

My phone started to ring, ruining the moment.

I pulled my cheek away, and answered the call without looking at the caller name.

Rob: "Helllooooo?"

A voice started to breath heavily.

Jerome: "Rob we f-"

I heard Jerome say, but then a bunch of shuffling noises muted him out.

Mitch: "Hey doode! We couldn't find Adam, sadly. Or the house he was in.." Mitch announced sadly.

Jerome: "Wait what? Mitch, why are you lying!?"

I heard Jerome yell in the background, yet Mitch continued to talk over him.

Mitch: "We don't need your help-"

Jerome: "Yes we do! We're locked in this God dang house!"

Mitch: "-So you can go ahead and do other stuff. I suggest turning your phone off, Jerome may try to call you a million times to get him food or something..."

Jerome: "What the hell, Mitch! Keep it on!"

Mitch: "Okay Rob?"

Jerome: "KEEP IT ON!!"

I stood there, in silence.

What the hell is going on..

Rob: "Could I just speak to Jerome?"

Mitch: "No."

I heard a soft beeping, clarifying that the call had been ended.

This can't be good...
