Dahvie's P.O.V

-

"Okay... So, what's the plan?"

"... To think of one,"

Then, every pair of eyes in the room rolled on me. I looked at all of them in shock. They can't expect me to lead them on. I'm not any kind of leader! "What??"

"Well, you know Stark better than any of us..." Jayy started.

"So you should know a weakness or a soft spot in him. Right?" Rory finished.

I rolled through my mind, but I couldn't find anything. I chewed the inside of my lips, "... I don't know.. All I can think of is that he absolutely hates any kind of bug, and that he is a serious germaphobe,"

"Hold on," Jeffree said, making all of us focus on him as he looked at Santi, "Why can't we just... Y'know, leave?"

"That's not going to work," I said softly, looking down, "Stark always gets what he wants.."

"But he didn't get you," Jayy said softly so only I could hear, making me smile as he wrapped his arms around me.

"We need to find a way to make sure Stark doesn't try to go after you guys again," Santi said as he interrupted our little moment, "But I just don't know how,"

Everyone went silent as we went to our own thoughts. The thinking of Stark always going to be watching is utterly terrifying. When we first met, I didn't think he'd turn into this damn monster. He was all sweet and kind and was always there. He helped me through everything and treated me like a prince. But I guess he got tired of that after a year. I know he has been through a lot in his life, like not having parents when growing up and living with his grandmother until he was fifteen. I did like him a lot, almost one step away from possible love, but that one punch to my gut knocked it out of me, like my heart jumping in my throat.

"A trap,"

I didn't even know I was the one that spoke the words out loud until I saw everyone staring at me, obviously waiting for an explanation. "Maybe we should do what Jeffree said."

"But Stark is-"

"Going to look for us," I looked at Santi, "We already know that. How about we surprise him? We can set up a trap. And when we do, we'll send him back to jail."

".... That could work," Mason said.

"But what kind of trap?" Jayy asked.

"Hell if I care! It can be one of those old fashioned net traps you can hang at the door. It can be a damned bear trap. We can talk Spooby Doo later. Just as long as if it's loud, and he's held secure, then it's good." I said, looking at them, "I don't know if your families are going to agree with this or not, but we need to stick together. We're not going to split up like stupid white people do in horror movies."

They all laughed at that, and I smiled before looking at Santi again, "Call Stark. Ask him where he is. Tell him to get as far away as possible so we can make our move out of here and into the woods and back home. When we're safe and secure, that's when he can come back. Say some bullshit excuse, but make it sound real enough for him to believe it. Then when he tells you his plan, notify us."

After I spoke, everyone just stared at me with wide smiles matching their eyes, making me oblivious until Jeffree spoke, crossing his arms, "See guys? I told you he was the leader,"

My face got hot as I muttered a weak "shut up" in his direction, making everyone laugh.

Santi took out his phone, and while everyone was probably thinking on what he was doing, he spoke, "I'm going to call Stark,"
