Jess's POV

    After Harry got Arty out Harry and I talked for hours. We talked about my life before my mom died, my friends, my old pets, my school and job. I tried to ask about him but he refused to tell me much. The things I did learn about him is that he doesn't talk to his family anymore and isn't very social beside the other guys. I was finally told the other guys names. Niall, Liam, Zayn, and Louis. I found out that Niall loves to eat and fart, Zayn loves... Well, himself. Liam is really responsible and keeps everyone is order. He is the planner sort of guy. He is very left brained. Louis is the funny one, the kind of guy who jokes around a lot but he is very trust worthy and can be serious when needed to be. We didn't really talk about Harry's interests but from what I've seen of him he seems like he kind of guy who is all tough on the exterior but inside his bad boy persona he is a sweet guy, but he is scared of showing weakness. I don't know why but when I'm with him I feel safe and at peace, which is stupid thing to feel seen as he kidnapped me. Maybe I have Stockholm syndrome? Nah, not yet anyways. Maybe it's the fact no one messes around with Harry and people are scared of him. Yeah, thats is. I need a way out of here. There is no way in hell that I will stay here forever. I need to start making a plan to escape. The only way I can think of getting out of here is to get Harry to trust me and then take a run for it. If I stay here any longer I will go mental. I need freedom, I need to be away from all of this. So, how do I earn Harry's trust? Tell him more about myself? No, he could easily just look me up with whatever sources he has. I could try to get to know him more, like show interest in him? No. He won't open up to me. ... I could seduce him? Yeah. I'll do that. I heard someone coming up the stairs and it brought me out of my thoughts. I saw Louis standing in the doorway with dinner. 

"Hey, love." Louis said happily. Louis always talked about how he liked having a girl in the house -even if she was here against her will- so they could help him with his fashion choices, to say that Louis was happy when he found out that I was a fashion intern who went to a fashion school was an understatement. 

"Hey." I said glumly 

"What's wrong?" Louis asked

"Well, besides the fact that I've been here for 3 and 1/2 weeks against my will? I just don't feel good." I said

"Emotionally or physically?" Louis asked suddenly worried 

"Why the hell doesn't my dad care about me!?!?! He is my bloody dad! He should always be there for me!" I said

"I'm guessing emotionally then?" Louis asked with a smile

"Louis, this isn't funny! My dad doesn't even care that I've been kidnapped by a bunch of idiots... And the worst part is your all growing on me." I muttered the last part

"What was that?" Louis said with a grin that made it clear that he heard me

"You heard me."

"Sorry, I didn't." 

"You guys are growing on me." I mumbled a little bit louder

"Huh?" 

"You guys are growing on me." I said in my normal voice except a little bit quiter 

"What was that?" 

"You guys are growing on me!!!!" I shouted

"What?" 

"Louis, I swear to God." I hissed

"Okay, okay. I heard ya, No need to be sassy." Louis said with a grin. Louis loved it when people took a liking to him. He loved people and he loved to have fun. 

"Idiot." I muttered 

"You love me!" Louis screamed while jumping on the bed

"Love my kidnapper?" I said with a smirk

"Stockholm syndrome?" Louis suggested 

"I'd love you if uncuff me. This really does hurt after awhile." 

Louis thought about about for a minute, and then slowly made his way over to me.

"If you try to runaway, I will be required to hurt you. Understood?" Louis said in all seriousness

"Understood." I said with a small nod 

Louis uncuffed me and took me by the hand and lead me downstairs.  As we walked through the house I saw it really was a nice house. High ceilings, big windows, even though the shades were closed, hard wood floors, granite counter tops, bran new appliences. They must be rich. I thought to myself. Louis led me into the living room where all the other guys were. When they saw us their eyes got big.

"LOUIS!" They all yelled 

"Hey guys." I said with a small wave

"Harry will murder you." Liam said with his eyes still on his phone

"Hazza won't hurt me." Louis said with a dramatic gasp

"Hazza?" I giggled

"Ooh, he is not going to live that one down." Zayn said with a laugh

I walked over to the couch and sat down next to Liam. All the boys looked at me.

"What?" I asked

"Just wondering why your not trying to runaway." Niall said

"You guys would catch me if I tried." I pointed out. 

"True." Louis said

                                        The boys and I were downstairs watching some football, while Niall was making food and Liam was trying to fix my wrists. The one that I found out 20 minutes ago was factored and the one that was all raw and scratched up from the handcuffs. I had a ace bandage on one and Liam was cleaning my other with Hydrogen Peroxide. It was stinging quite a bit. After whining for about half an hour how I was craving skittles, Zayn phoned Harry and asked if he could pick up Niall some skittles and then when Harry brought them he would give them to me. 

"YES! TOUCHDOWN BITCHES!" I shouted jumping up from the couch and then hissing as my wrist burned from it being roughly dragged across Liam was using to clean it with

"Good one." Zayn said with a laugh

"Asshole." I muttered 

"How could you!?!?" Zayn said over dramatically

"I'm sorry! Take me back!?!" I shouted playing around

"Never!" Zayn yelled 

"Baby come back! You can blame it all on me!" I sang

"Well, sense it was your fault I'm sure he will." Louis said playfully 

"Psh!" I scoffed at him

"Niall?" I asked

"Yeah?" Niall said with his mouth full of chips

"Can I have some pleeeeease?" I begged 

"No." Niall said

"Please?" I said while giving him my puppy dog eyes

"Fine!" Niall said while giving me a handful 

"Woah, woah did Niall just share his food?" Liam said with shock in his voice

"Woah." Zayn said

"How?" Louis said 

I then gave him my puppy dog eyes

"You must of gotten away with a lot as a child." Louis said 

"Indeed." I said trying not to think about my mom.

"LET'S GO GIANTS!!" I yelled at the TV

"Who knew a little rich girl was such a man inside?" Zayn asked with a laugh

"Coming from the man with a girl's vanity in him." I said back

"Whatever." Zayn said trying to hide his grin

We started to watch the game again while Liam cleaned my wrist and Louis found entertainment with through popcorn at me. Zayn fixed his hair and Niall stuffed his face. I was a little scared to see Harry's reaction when he got home and saw me hanging out in their little man cave watching football on his TV. They guys assured me that he would be a little mad but he would get over it and that they would always protect me. Funny when your kidnappers protect you. Ironic really. And very, very stupid.

"Louis!" I yelled 

"What?" Louis asked in fake innocence 

"Stop throwing food at me." I whined 

"I'm not." 

"You better not be." Niall warned while putting his gun on the coffee table which made me jump back into Zayn. 

"Niall! You scared her!" Zayn complained to Niall

"Put it away." Liam said simply 

"Sorry, love. It was a joke. I forgot you weren't used to us yet." Niall said with a sweet smile.

"It's fine." I said my my voice came out weak

"Are you sure love?" Liam asked

"Yeah." 

"Okay." Liam said but didn't sound convinced 

"Can I ask you guys some questions?" I said timidly 

"Of course, love. Ask us anything." Zayn said 

"Why are you guys so nice to me? I mean don't get me wrong, I love that you are. But isn't the kidnapper supposed to me mean?" I asked

The guys laughed and then Liam cleared it up

"Jess, we don't want to hurt you. We only took you to get back at your dad but in a way you have become part of our small dysfunctional family." Liam said with a laugh

"So are you guys ever going to let me go?" I asked

"Love, we can't." Niall said

"Why?" I asked

"It seems that Harry has grown attached to you." Louis said 

"What?" I asked completely dumbfounded 

"He just is very protective over you and cares about you. He doesn't want to let you go." Liam clarified 

"Oh. Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" I asked

"Both. It means that Harry will be the old Harry we used to know and love but It also means danger for you." Zayn said

"How?' I asked

"If Harry gets soft then other gangs will try to hurt you." Zayn said

"Why?" 

"Because Harry is like the alpha male around here. No one messes with him or us.If people notice him getting soft then they will kill you so he will toughen up again. Or they will force Harry to chose." Liam said

"Chose what?" I asked 

"Oh... Uh Nothing." Liam said learning he said too much.

I let it go and asked a question that has been killing me sense I first got stolen.

"Did you guys kill Kyle?" I asked shyly 

"Who is Kyle?" The boy asked 

"The guy at Wendys when you guys first to-" 

"Harry's home." Niall alerted us all.

The boys stiffened waiting for the worst. I just gulped and leaned more on Zayn and Louis took my hand. 

"Here goes nothing...." Liam said 

"Hey lads!" Harry said as he got home he seemed happy but then his eyes met mine.

"What is this." Harry growled And I froze
