78

I glared at the two robots but they simply ignored me, busying themselves by tying me to the chair with a thick rope.
Really ? Am I that much of a threat that you have to tie me down to a chair ? I asked them, raising a brow.
Brunette boy just let out a grunt from the floor where he was tying my feet and blondie stopped tying my wrists to stare at me.
If his plan was to look intimidating, it worked. His cold eyes made me slightly shrink back in my chair and I decided to shut up.
They continued tying me up in peace and I started counting the seconds. I wanted to see if Alvin really was true to his word and would actually be down in exactly ten minutes. I was also sort of hoping that Nathan would come too.
After counting up to four minutes, I got tired and the silence was killing me, so I thought of ways to start up a conversation with the two boys that were still tying me up. I looked down to see that there wasn’t even a spot of myself that I could see anymore. They had really tied me down like it was their destiny.
I tried squirming and noticed that it only made the knots around me constrict, so I stopped.
I suddenly got an idea to break the silence and possibly agitate the boys. If annoying them meant that they’d finally speak, then so be it.
Don’t you ever say I just walked away, I will always want you… I started singing quietly, causing brunette boy to stop briefly and look up. Blondie ignored me and brunette boy decided to do the same, so they went back to tying knots.
I can’t live a lie, running for my life, I will always want you… I sang the next part but this time neither of them reacted.
I waited for the perfect timing, before bursting my heart out. I CAME IN LIKE A WRECKING BALL ! I sang at the top of my lungs, causing them both to jump in surprise and then wince at my beautiful singing voice.
What the hell are you doing !? Brunette boy was the first to finally speak.
I NEVER HIT SO HARD IN LOVE ! I yelled, ignoring brunette boy.
Dude make her stop ! Brunette boy turned to blondie in panic, who had been trying his hardest to keep ignoring me.
Just ignore her. Blondie grumbled, pulling at the rope tighter than necessary.
Wrong answer blondie…
ALL I WANTED WAS TO BREAK YOUR WALLS ! I continued on. Brunette boy stopped and slapped both hands over his ears while blondie continued tying knots. He really was a hard shell to crack.
ALL YOU EVER DID WAS… WRE-E-ECK ME ! Yeah you… YOU WRE-E-ECKED ME ! I burst out. By now my throat was starting to hurt.
Shut up goddammit ! Blondie finally cracked, standing up and glaring down at me. I noticed he was grinding his teeth together and his fists were clenched in anger.
Only on one condition. I stopped my singing for a split second, giving him an evil smirk.
Brunette boy turned to blondie with pleading eyes.
No, you don’t get to give orders here. I’m the one that- I didn’t let blondie finish.
I never meant to start a war… I lowered my voice just like Miley did in the song.
Blondie’s anger seemed to rise and he opened his mouth but I kept going.
I just wanted you to let me in… I trailed off.
Brunette boy was looking at me cautiously, waiting for an outburst again. I decided to skip some of the song just so I could get to the chorus faster.
But don’t you ever say I just walked away I will always want you. I can’t live a lie, running for my life. I will always want you… I trailed off and left the room in a scary silence.
Brunette boy looked like he was about to pee his pants right then and there and blondie was giving me a sinister look.
Giving a wink at brunette boy and shooting an evil smirk at blondie, I prepared myself.
Just as I opened my mouth, blondie broke. Okay okay fine ! We’ll do whatever it is you want just don’t sing anymore !
I smirked smugly, before firing my first question at brunette boy. I just want to know… How come you’re not at home with your family celebrating Christmas like you should be ? I asked curiously.
Brunette boy looked surprised at my question, but quickly recovered. I’m doing my family a favor by working today. He stated. I saw a flicker of sadness in his eyes, but it was gone in a flash.
Why are you doing this ? I asked him next, my tone softer. And don’t say because you need money, there’s plenty of other jobs out there for that. I quickly added.
He looked hesitant to answer. Because I have to. His voice was barely a whisper.
I had gotten him to crack. I knew at the end of the day, these two men were just young boys holding up a strong front to hide something far more dark and twisted. I knew that from my own sexy kidnapper.
My heart softened towards the boy as I saw sadness take over his eyes.
Alright that’s enough. I don’t want to get caught telling this brat stuff we’re not supposed to. Blondie cut in, glaring at me.
I glared right back. How could you be scared of a small chipmunk ? I asked him with a raised brow.
Chipmunk ? He asked, confused.
Like Alvin from Alvin and the Chipmunks. I sighed out. How many times would I have to explain this ? The comparison was quite obvious and clear.
Brunette boy accidentally let out a small chuckle and blondie just stared at me curiously.
What does it matter to you why we’re here ? Blondie asked me suddenly, his tone edged with defense.
I met his cold blue eyes. So emotionless and guarded. Alvin’s like a giant evil whining crow, but it doesn’t mean that all his men are like him. I explained. Obviously you both just want to be home with your families right now, celebrating Christmas instead of being trapped here and treated like robots. I said confidently, not breaking eye-contact with blondie. I know I do. I added softly after, more to myself.
Although I did have my brother, my best friends and my boyfriend around me, I’d rather be celebrating Christmas with them than being stuck here in this situation. We were all just teens. We didn’t deserve this. We shouldn’t be planning on getting a thirteen year old out of some mafia prison place. But I knew better than to sulk around and think of all the what ifs. This situation was given to us and we couldn’t just avoid it and run from it. That was why I’d been so positive throughout it all, that was how I came up with a plan.
She’s right Cody. Brunette boy commented after a while, talking to the blond. So that’s what his name was…
Alright maybe I’m being a bit too harsh. Cody admitted with a sigh. But I was just doing my job. He defended after.
I gave him a small smile. It’s alright, I can only imagine what Alvin would do to you if he found out you’d gone all soft. I grinned after that.
He just gave me a look, before shaking his head and letting a small smile show for a brief second.
I was happy to see some emotion in him.
Well you’ve got a lot of confidence and fight in you kid, I can’t say I’m not surprised. He commented after, giving me a smirk.
Kid ? I said in confusion. You’re probably the same age as me bozo. I muttered.
His gaze hardened. You better watch what you say. I may have given you the wrong impression by smiling. I won’t let you call me names. He threatened, cracking a smile after a long intense silence.
It was scary how swiftly he could switch back and forth with his exterior.
Well what were your guys’ plans to torture me ? I asked casually, looking at both of them.
Brunette boy quickly answered. Torture ? No, we’d never hit a girl, we weren’t planning on hurting you or anything. He rushed out quickly, clearing up my assumption.
