Hey guys!

So I have been really bored with most of my books recently, but I wanted to write at the same time. (I know, I'm a weird one. xD And I will finish my others sooner or later.) So naturally, I had to fly with this idea when I got it.

So, unlike my other stories, this book will not contain romance at all. It's just a dark and angsty story about our favorite prep boys.

I hope you enjoy this chapter!


Chapter one.

Sebastian Smythe had led the Warblers to victory yet again, and they were going out to celebrate. But Jeff was worried as he listened to the other boys around him laugh at jokes and playful banter. Sebastian was nowhere to be seen, and though Jeff had texted him a few times asking where he was, there was no answer.

"Guys?" He began, getting the attention of most of his teammates. "Have any of you seen Sebastian?" He asked, beginning to worry more now that he had asked. It made it more real.

He felt his stomach drop and twist as they all shook their heads. "No.." They all said, echoing each other after they had thought about the question for a moment.

"Okay, that's it!" Nick cried, then he pulled out his phone as the infectious worry took over him. He and Jeff were some of Sebastian's best friends, he would have told them if his plans had changed. "I'm calling him!"

Jeff nodded. "Do that." He said, and then watched his friend dial Sebastian.

They listened as the phone rang

Once... They could feel their hearts pounding with anxiety.

Twice... They began looking back and forth at each other. Was Sebastian okay?

Thrice... Everyone in the room was sure something was wrong. Sebastian would have answered his phone by now.

"I swear, if this is a prank, I'm gonna beat that boy." One of the Warblers growled, then earned a loud "shush" from the others.

"Hello, you have reached the voicemail of Sebastian Smythe. I am unable to take your call right now, but if you leave your name and number I will get back to you at my earliest convenience. Thanks, and have a nice day."

For the first time in their lives, the Warblers didn't mock Sebastian's professional sounding voicemail. No, this time it was chilling. Sebastian's voice filling the air, but he wasn't there, and no one knew where he was.

Jeff and Nick looked over at each other. Something was definitely wrong.

•••

Darkness. That was the first thing Sebastian saw.

Pain. That was the second thing he became aware of. He was pretty sure his ankle was bent underneath him, sending dull pangs of pain through the sleeping limb.

Voices. That was the third thing that came back to him. He could hear someone fighting with someone else in a different room. Two voices, one deep and rough, the other one more gentle and higher, but both were male voices.

Fear. That was the fourth thing to return. He wasn't at Dalton. He was somewhere else. But he wasn't sure where.

Memories. The final thing to find its way back to Sebastian. He had been at the auditorium where regionals had been held. The Warblers had won, then he had been approached by a talent scout who wanted to talk to him. Outside. How could he have been so stupid!? How had he forgotten the first rule every young child was told? "Stranger danger".

"Welcome back to earth, Sleepy Head." Was the first thing that was spoken to him. And he instantly wanted to be sick, it wasn't a dream, this was real. "Too bad you're in hell now."

Sebastian wanted to sob. It was dark, he was alone. Well, almost, he wasn't alone. If you counted his captors.
