Behind the walls ●ABANDONED●

Chapter 5

Maya's point of view

I woke up to the sound of a plate smashing on the floor and "Oh shit" being heard from the kitchen. I get up from the sofa holding a cushion as a form of protection or a weapon as a dangerous pillow fight.

I quietly walked over to he kitchen and peeped my head through the door frame. I saw Chloe in the kitchen bent down trying to pick up the broken pieces of ceramic on the floor. Carefully trying not to step on any as she put the shards in the bin. I let out a sigh of relief realising we were alright.
"Chloe you scared the bajesus out of me."
"Sorry." She replied sincerely then burst out into laughter

She was laughing for a couple of minutes straight while I was just watching her dying of laughter with the most confused face.
"What?" She didn't respond just started laughing harder,if that is even possible. "What." I started to raise my voice.
"W who s s s s ssssss." Apparently she finds the letter S the funniest of all. She reminded me of a snake as she just kept of almost hissing but not. "Who, what?"
"Wwho s s s ssssss says bejesus." She still couldn't stop laughing.
"Me"
"Since when did you care about swearing." She was wiping the tears away from her eyes from the finally of her laughing fit.
"Me."
"Why."
"I don't know, maybe I just want to cut down on my swearing."
"Sure."

*****

We were sitting on the sofa watching TV. The sun was slowly lowering in the sky painting a beautiful unrealistic look on the sky. The reds, pinks, oranges and blues of the sky blended together like an artist painted it. A knock came from the door. Chloe got up to open the door. I peeped my head round the corner to find that no one was there, not even Chloe.

I got up from the sofa being cautious with every step I took. I slowly took a couple steps towards the direction of the kitchen. I heard something behind me. I quickly spun my head around but nothing was there it was all the same as when I walked away.
"Chloe?" I called out to make sure I wasn't going insane. No response. I turned around again and tried to head to the kitchen again.

I heard something again. This time I had no time to turn and look. No time to run. No time to process. I felt an arm wrap around my waist and another wrap around my mouth. Then... it all went black. No thoughts ran through my mind.

Chloe's point of view

"Maya, look who it is" I called out. I didn't hear a response. "Maya." I started to panic. I ran to the living room but no one was there. I darted to the toilet and flung open the door. She wasn't there either. I bolted to the kitchen almost falling on the way. She wasn't there.

I ran through the entire house but couldn't find her. "MAYA." I screamed distraught. I fell to the ground. She wasn't a spontaneous sort of person. F**k did John get to her. That ba***rd. He took her back to a life of pain. A rolled up into a ball and cried. When she told me about what happened I couldn't stand it. I couldn't believe what he put her through.

I felt a hand place on my back. It rubbed it hand in soothing circular motions. I looked up to see Tom to be looking down at me with sorrow in his eyes.
"We'll find her." I knew we would but that didn't matter. What mattered was that she is gone and it's my fault. I just nodded but in that moment I didn't believe him.

We always worried about Maya when we were younger. She always got herself into trouble. She always told us not to worry about her but we couldn't help ourselves she was the precious child of our group that experienced thing last so she got all are advice.

I got up and turned around Tom embraced me into a hug that I never wanted to pull away from. He was so warm, he made me feel safe. He made me forget but not for long.

Maya's point of view

Black was all I saw. Blackness for hours I think. Even when I opened my eyes I saw darkness. As my eyes adjusted to the darkness I saw a door in front of me but to far to be anywhere near reaching. I tried to get up and reach it but then I realised I was strapped down to a chair. I looked around more to see if I could find anything to help me.

The room was large but dark. There was a small light hanging like a typical horror movie but it wasn't on. I heard foot steps coming from outside but they quickly disappeared. Who was that? I quickly heard the footsteps come back then they stopped outside the door. As I heard a key go in my heart pace quickened.

The door opened and a dark figure walked in. The light turned on blinding me temporarily. He walked near to me. His figure showed that he was very muscular with broad shoulders and a very chiseled face but that was all I could see in the dim light. He stopped in front of me but far enough away so I couldn't see his features.
"Look who we have here." My body froze up. His voice was deep and booming able to silence a room

I felt like I had heard it before but I couldn't pin where I had heard it. Meanwhile, my kidnapper must have gotten impatient with me and snapped me out of my thoughts by talking. "I have waited for a while to finally have you." Then it hit me he was who I ran into in the alleyway when I ran away from John.  "Pleasure to meet you again, maya." I froze as I had never told him my name.

"How d do you know my name." I stuttered from fear.
"I know like how I know that you were running away from your ex John that night after dating for 7 months." My eyes widened
I know that you loved another when you started dating but he was who was realistic." I dropped my head down at that. It was true, I liked John but never truly loved him. I said I loved him to make him happy but it was all a lie.

I liked him so much. He said he loved me, I was scared so I said it back eventhough I didn't mean it. He said he would never hurt me but he lied so I lied about my love for him. Being with him made me not believe in love anymore, I don't believe that two people can be so happily married to the point that they never thought about divorce or trusted each other so much to let them get drunk surrounded by other men or women. John definitely never supported the idea of true love.

"Are you done mopping about now." Tobias asked annoyed. I didn't look up no- I couldn't. I couldn't look him in the eyes when he knew more about me than I did. The thought that he had been watching me sent shivers down my spine but i didn't really matter cause it was all recorded anyway.
"ARE YOU DONE." He shouted. I flinched but still couldn't bare looking at him after all he kidnapped me. Wait he kidnapped me, I was to busy thinking about my sad life that I forget that I was tied to a chair in a room probably never getting to see my family.
"Ughhh." He groaned then walked to the edge of the room before coming back to me.

Hope you like the longer than normal chapter.
