Till Death Do Us Apart- 4 ✔️

Chapter Ten Death Row

All I Want- Emma Bale
Selene's POV

It was quiet. It had been quiet since Ryder escaped. No one came down to do anything to us and I assumed it was because they were using everyone they had to find her. They needed her for their 'master' plan. I shake my head looking over to Felix. He'd been quiet for the past few days too and I knew it wasn't because he was angry or anything. He was just tired, hell I was tired too. I wasn't just tired, I was exhausted. All I wanted to do was close my eyes and finally go to rest. Be at peace- but I couldn't.

I couldn't risk it. Any time I closed my eyes my heart starts pumping faster and faster and my breathing turns to panting. My chest starts tightening because every time I close my eyes, they could come and take one of us and I wouldn't be prepared. I wouldn't be expecting it. I let out an annoyed sigh with myself and shake my head and I just knew my actions gained Felix' attention. Everything did.

"What?" He asks and I didn't want to tell him I was annoyed with myself so I thought of something to say but nothing came to me.

"Life just really sucks right now." I say angrily, then I hear him chuckle softly making me look back at him. "Funny huh?" I ask nodding. "I'm so glad you can find humor in this."

"You just sounded like the average depressed teen."

"I am the average depressed teen and I didn't asked to be called out like that." Felix just smirks making me roll my eyes. "Of course you found humor in that as well. Everything I say is just hilarious isn't it?" Felix shrugs is shoulders. "Oh, what now? You're not gonna talk?" His devilish smirk slowly grows almost giving me a chill. "Stop that." He doesn't. "You see, this is why you don't have friends." His eyes suddenly narrow as his smirk falls from his face and I knew I won with that.

"I have friends."

"Name one."

"Blake." I shake my head.

"Your girlfriend doesn't count." I yawn.

"Fine, Leon." My eyes narrow.

"Neither does your brother." I say shaking my head again. He rolls his eyes and looks away, not responding. "It's okay to admit you don't have friends. Sometimes it's hard to admit things like that." He still remains quiet not looking at me. "What? Are you mad now?" He looks further away from me making me smirk. "Aw you poor friendless baby." I say in a baby voice causing him to give me a side glance as he looks me up and down before looking away again. "God you're annoying."

Sighing, I look away from Felix and toward the door. They haven't been down here and them not ruining every moment made being with Felix a little bit better. Almost made me forget I was being kidnaped which made me wonder what they were going to do when they finally decide to come down here again. Will they when they find Ryder? Will they find Ryder? Has she made it to them yet? To everyone who's looking for us? What if she's dead? No, no she couldn't be. They'd kill us if she was, wouldn't they?

"Do you think she's okay out there?" I ask, but there was no response so I look back at him seeing him still looking away from me. "Felix." I say plainly but still nothing. "Seriously?" I shake my head and look away. Okay so I lied before. Being here with Felix was prison on its own. Rolling my eyes I thought of everyone that would be a suitable replacement for him. Anyone but him would be good. Alex would be a funny guy to be with. Wesley would make me emotional but at least I'd be seeing him.

At least I'd know he's alive. "Aiden." Felix says and I look back as he looks at me with pride. "Aiden is my friend." Raising my eyebrows and shaking my head, I thought of things I wanted to say to him, but didn't.
