"This place is smaller then I thought" I say as I look around the outside of the building Colby had brought me to. I hug myself trying to gain warmth as he unlocks the door.
To be honest, I'm not sure if he's going to kill me or kidnap me, hold me hostage, make me write letters to my family and friends then kill me as I see in the movies, but in the end I didn't look too bad.
"I'm not a billionaire what did you expect" I nervously laugh, not sure what I'm getting myself into here.
He finally unlocks the door to show a broken down house. The walls were poorly painted as some of the paint was chipping off and the furniture looked like it was made in 1840. There were a couple of voices coming from the other room. I follow Colby into the next room, which I guess is the living room.
My feet glue to the ground as I spot Andrea laying down on the couch playing with a strand of her hair as she laughs at something on her phone.
"Andrea?" I say looking at her my mouth so wide it might be touching the ground at this point. She turns to me her eyes widening at my sight.
"Ava?" She says placing her phone down on the couch beside her sitting up looking at me, then at Colby, then back to me.
"Wait what is going on" I say facing Colby watching as his face turns back to the dull look it has been all day. The room grows quiet before loud footsteps come from behind me stopping right at the door.
Am I getting shot?
"Fuck no!" I hear two familiar male voices echo each other making my heart drop to my ass realizing who those voices belong to.
"Jeff, Brennen!" I say turning around to face them, my throat growing dry. I pinch the side of my thigh making sure this wasn't just a bad dream.
Spoiler alert, it wasn't a dream.
"No, no I'm done" I say heading towards the front door before feeling Colby's hand wrap around my arm pulling me back, his force making me fall down to the ground.
''Aye! be more gentle with her'' Jeff points his finger at Colby. Colby places his hands up in the air rolling his eyes.
"Ava you stay down there, Jeff, Brennen don't get mad" I watch Brennen place his hands in the air wanting answers just like everyone else here.
''too late, I'm already mad" Jeff says crossing his arms in front of him.
What is this guy's problem?
I watch as Colby places two of his figures to his left shoulder making everyone's eyes whiten without him having to say anything.
"Nah I'm in a cult" I fake gasp making Andrea laugh.
"She's funny!" I smile at Andrea not knowing if she's joking or not.
"How long is she staying?" Brennen says leaning on the door frame.
"She's not leaving" Colby says in a deep tone.
"That's right because I'm going to get killed!" I say pulling out my phone to call Anastasia before Colby kicks it out of my hands. I watch it slides across the floor and finish below Jeff and brennen's feet.
"Stop" he grows at me my heartbeat growing faster every second knowing that Colby has a really high chance of killing me right now.
"She's a part of us now"

"I've been so fucking worried where have you been?" Anastasia says pulling me into a tight hug as I enter into my apartment Colby has dropped me off at after I had explained to him a thousand times why I had to go back.
Shit, how the actual fuck am I going to be able to tell her?
"Oh, I just went out with Colby'' I lie making Anastasia pull away from the tight hug. A giant frown growing on her face making me feel guilty.
''What, why!" she says, voice echoing.
"It's fine Anastasia, we just went to go get coffee and then hanged out" I say playing with the string of my jacket that had broken off today. I look up to notice that Anastasia had raised her eyebrows at me her frown growing bigger.
"Your lying" Anastasia says out of nowhere catching me off guard. I feel like someone whos getting investigated by a police officer after they had just broke into a bank and then they had stolen all their money.
"No, I'm not" I reply back crossing my arms trying not to show Anastasia any symptoms to when I'm lying or what she likes to call it.
The Anastasia investigation that you will never be able to escape.
"Your voice goes high pitched when you lie" Anastasia says crossing her arms and giving me a judgy look.
"I'm fine" I repeat myself listening as she huffs from frustration.
"No, you're not, stop lying Ava you can tell me anything" I felt my stomach do a summersault, my mouth opening, and closing.
I've got to tell her.
"Fine well you know how Colby's in a gang, well yeah I joined it" I watch as her face drops looking at me, she drops her crossed arms to be besides her.
"Don't lie" she says her voice sounding dull like Colbys.
"My voice didn't change Anastasia" she walks away from me going over and sitting down on the couch.
"Get out"
"What!'' I felt like blending in with the floor.
"Ava I get it, your my best friend and you will always be my best friend, but I just don't want people coming after me because of you. I just don't wanna feel like I'm in danger''
"Fine" I say walking back towards the door biting down on my bottem lip, realising that I probably just lost my best friend.
''If you ever decide to leave I'll be right here'' I hear her voice once before closing the door behind me.
