Elements

9. hide n seek

"It's outdoor time" a man says walking behind Jesse out of the room and we have to get up and go down to the designated "outside area".

Me and Jesse do laps walking around as Aaron and Malek start ladders and sprints before laps. At least it's a nice day.

I don't know what came over me but I focused on the ground as I was walking and managed to grow a large vine out of the ground just infront of Malek as he was running, making him trip and biff it right into the dirt and grass.

Jesse starts to laugh hysterically as Malek stands up and wipes his torso clean of all the grass and dirt while starring at me very broodingly

"He's going to beat your ass for that" Jesse says laughing.

"Ill strangle him with a vine in his sleep" I say under my breath and she laughs so hard shes trying to catch her breath.

"I fucking love you girl, but he'll kill you dead ass" she says and I just grin a little.

We continue for a while before sitting down as she shows me more of her powers and I show her a little of mine when the guard tells us to wrap it up.

We all gather near the door and follow him up the stairs as I follow behind Jesse and Aaron with Malek behind me. Suddenly I miss a step and go to grip the railing and miss, falling back, I land right on Malek as he quickly pulls my waist into him as he steadies himself by gripping the hand rail.

I quickly gather myself and push off of him before turning around as he just look up at me and doesn't say anything. He definitely could've just let me fall after the vine stunt, maybe it was just reflex, he would probably have let me fall if he had more time to think.

"Thank you" I say quietly before continuing back up the stairs following behind them when suddenly the railing starts to go burning hot and I quickly remove my hand.

Idiot.

"Watch it" I hear Malek say as he passes by me and the group on the stairs as he enters back into the common area right behind the guard.

I watch as he and Aaron walk back to the showers and wash up while me and Jesse sit on the couch.

"He caught you on the stairs" She says smirking

"Why do u want us to be together so bad" I say looking at her, seriously what's her obsession, just because I'm the only other girl?

"I don't have anything else to focus on, Maleks been a moody 2 demential sexually frustrated hole in the wall for 8 months and now he's giving foot massages and catching people romantically in the stair well" she beams

"1. He didn't give me a foot massage and 2. It wasn't romantic, right after it he then burned me on the hand rail then told me to watch it" I say rolling my eyes

"What ever I'll take it, I'm bored" she says grinning "plus I think he likes you, and I know you like him"

"Your Delusional" I say shaking my head.

"We should play a game tonight" She says and I look at her shocked. She can't be serious after the last time.

"It won't be truth or dare" she rolls her eyes

"What are you thinking?" I say looking at her

"Hide n seek" she grins.

"There is 5 rooms, a hallway" I say looking at her, where the hell are we going to hide.

"So if it's lame we can watch a movie" she shrugs.

We watch some more Greys then have supper as the boys finally re-emerge, it's now dark out as it usually is by this time of night when Jesse brings forth the stupidest proposal of Hide and seek.

"Okay" Aaron says, he would say yes to anything she brought up.

"Fine" I say as she basically puppy dog eyes me forcing Malek to join because everyone else Is.

"Your it" she says to Aaron before standing quickly. "Start counting and cover your eyes" She yells before grabbing my hand and pulling along with her as Aaron starts counting down from 30. We run into my bedroom, Turing off all the lights along the way.

"There is probably spiders under here" I say as me and Jesse try jamming ourselves as close together underneath my bed frame as we can when we finally admit to ourselves we won't fit.

"I'm going to hide somewhere else this isn't working" I say quickly sliding out and running out to the hall

I hear Aaron counting down "12..11..10.." as I book it into the washroom, I turn off the light before looking for a spot. Shit.

I look under the sink but it's useless so I move past the toilets to the shower stalls and they are so out in the open when I hear "ready or not" from right out in the hallway

Suddenly I feel an arm wrap around my waist and another cover my mouth as I get pulled down into one of the showers in the back. I turn my head to find it's Malek and just as I'm about to say something the bathroom door swings open.

I sit there in between his legs trying to duck down into him as close as I can as I hear Aaron walking around by the sink when I hear the door open and close again?

I hear Malek exhale and I pray it wasn't a trick and that Aaron actually left. I slowly start to peak my head up but Malek grabs my wrist and pulls me back down just incase

"Your not very good at hiding" he whispers looking at me

"Your not very good either or you wouldn't have risked your spot to hide me" I say and watch as the corner of his mouth twitches up

"I'll find another spo-" I start as I begin sitting up but his grip doesn't loosen around my waist.

Okay then.
