"You should be with him."

Katherine's Pov

That was just fucking fantastic.

Can you imagine the embarrassment? Brandon and Lucas walking in on Ashton and I doingㅡ

Fuck, I don't even know what we were doing. We should've been sleeping but there I was, letting my hormones get the best of me.

As much as I wanted to blame Ashton, saying that it's all his fault because I know that it's not. There was a small part of me that knew what was going on.

Small? You were practically begging for it

Anyㅡfuckingㅡway.

That was really embarrassing for the both of us. Actually, I saw that little smirk he had on his stupid face after I exited the bathroom.

I bet he was enjoying every single minute of that scene. My brothers walking in on us, me looking like a tomato and feeling very embarrassed.

As I turned my head to the side to look at Ashton, I saw him looking right back at me. I growled softly before turning my head violently in the other direction.

His deep chuckle could be heart throughout the car, Amelia and Brandon turned to the back and looked at us. I simply rolled my eyes at my brother, he kept looking between Ashton and I; silently wondering if we're doing something.

"This is all your fault," I snarled at Ashton

He lifted his hand up and gently placed it on my head, patting my hair. I raised my eyebrow, biting my lip and holding back the urge to punch him.

He leaned forward after removing his hand, lowering his head near my ear.

"I didn't hear you asking me to stop." His warm breath hitting my skin

Goosebumps rising, the hair at the back of my neck standing up. He was way too close for my liking, him acting like this would surely gain attention from everyone.

Don't snarl

Don't snarl

Don't snarl

I calmly looked at him, dead in the eyes and started thinking of what to do other than punch him in the face.

You have no idea how hard it was to not punch him right there and then. Although, if I think about it, Ashton is some big 'amous mafia 'god' that everyone fears. So, if I were to punch him that would earn me some street credit.

Not that I need it though, I just really want to punch him and I could use that as my excuse.

I'm quite the genius if I do say so myself. The left corner of my mouth lifted upwards into a smirk. Ashtons eyes trailed to my mouth and he bit his lip, for a split second everything faded away.

There was nobody in this car besides him and I, we were alone again and his beauty captured me. In that split second, I wanted nothing more than to be with him. I wanted to confess how I really feel about him and that I'd help him take over Joey's side of the mafia once we kill him.

I wanted to tell him that I only wanted him. There's no one in this world that could compare to him, he was everything I wanted. Everything I'll ever want.

"You're a fucking idiot."

"Want me to say something cheesy?"

"For the love of god, please don't,"

"I'm your idiot." A loud groan escaped my lips as I face plamed my forehead

He laughed and a small smile made its way to my face. I looked at him through the corner of my eye and he was busy smiling to himself.

The smile wasn't really noticeable, you had to look really hard in order to see it. Just a few minutes later, the car stopped moving and Brandon got out of the car along with Amelia.

Amelia pushed down the seat and helped me out, I gave her a small thanks before scanning the area. It was quiet and there was nobody around but something was bothering me.

Something about this place seemed a bit familiar and not the good kind of familiar.

"What is this place?" I asked as I touched the walls of the building

The place looked a bit old but still good, there were some pretty flowers growing opposite the building. They didn't seem like they were dying, they actually looked healthy like someone would come water them everyday.

"You don't remember this place, Katherine?"

A voice from the main hall asked, I furrowed my eyebrows and walked towards the doors.

Ashton them followed me, I asked him to wait outside here along with the others. He grabbed harshly onto my arm pulling me against him. I rolled my eyes knowing that he wouldn't let me go alone, he doesn't want to risk sending me alone and I don't blame him.

With my past and everything, I wouldn't send me alone either.

"Come on dear, I don't have all dayㅡ well I actually do but you don't,"

"What does that mean?" I asked, pushing open the doors revealing myself along with Ashton and the rest

"You want to save Max, don't you?"

"You already know the answer to that. Now tell what is this place and where is Joey." I took a step towards him

He took two steps back and I tiled my head, wondering why he stepped backwards. The man pointed towards the ceiling and I looked upwards, my heart dropped and I stumbled backwards.

I looked at him with my eyes wide and slight fear, my legs felt weak and my stomach was in knots. The man wore a wide smile, his slightly yellow teeth showing and the gold tooth of his shining brightly as he laughed.

"You finally remember this place? This is your home, Katherine or should I say treasure?"

"Don't fucking call me that you bastard." I snarled

My head was filled with memories and images of when they brought me here. I remember lying breathless on this very ground, looking up at the ceiling wondering when or if I'll ever escape. The ceiling had images of people that were beaten half to death on them, they were either around my age or older.

Joey would come here after every victim and place a new picture on the ceiling, he would bring me with and say that I'm next. He made sure to decorate the middle and leave a space open, he said thats where my photo would go.

I was his favourite and he wanted my picture to have a special place, he said that I'm his most precious treasure. This was one of the places that I hated most, it brought back so many unwanted memories.

"Want to take a walk down memory lane, dear?"
