Hi, sorry that the last chapter got posted twice, I think the website was having some glitches or something:/ Enjoy the chapter!
Patricia POV
I groaned and lifted my hand to rub my head. The last thing I remember is Vera hitting me on the head with a rock or something after Denby left us. I open my eyes and take in my surroundings.
I'm in a shed of some kind, not surprising. It actually looks kind of familiar. I look down and realize I'm sitting in a ratty, beat up chair and instantly know where I am. Two years ago when Rufus took me, I spent a good 24 hours or so sitting in this chair. The question is, how did Vera know where Rufus kept me back then?
"Finally, you're awake." Vera says, walking into the shed.
I decide to give her the silent treatment, she can't hit me for mouthing off, but it still shows some kind of rebellion.
"I know the bracelet Amber gave Victor is a fake. I confiscated that same bracelet from you last year." She says walking towards me.
She bends over so that we are eye level and says, "So tell me where the real parcel is and you will get out of here much sooner than we originally planned."
I just stare at her. I refuse to show any fear or worry about the parcel, and just look at her poker-faced.
She slaps me, just like she did last night.
"I'll come back in a little bit. Maybe then you'll remember where it is." She says, before walking out the door.
Well now what am I supposed to do?
Eddie POV
I walk over towards the kitchen for breakfast, even though it's only 7:00. I've been up all night thinking about Patricia. Everything was fine last night with the whole "disco" and everything. Victor gave us toilet duty for a week, but Willow asked if she could do it for us, something about how she wanted to feel the pain Amber went through when she had to do it. I wasn't about to argue against it.
I was just about to open the door to the kitchen when I heard Denby's voice. I open the door a tiny bit to see if it's her, which it is.
She's on the phone holding Patricia's bracelet and one of the fortunes from the fortune cookies.
"It's red and black with a moon on it." She says.
"Yes, how did you know that?" She asks looking surprised.
"It's Patricia's? How is that possible? How do you know?" She asks.
Who is she on the phone with? And how did they know that it was Patricia's bracelet?
"I see, well do me a favor and let Patricia know that we know it's a fake. Ask her where the real parcel is." She demands.
Whoever is on the phone has Patricia! That's it!
"Well then you'll have to persuade her somehow. Tell her you'll let her out sooner, tell her you'll feed her if she tells you."
Wait, they aren't going to feed her? Isn't that illegal or something?! Oh, right, they did kidnap her...
"If that doesn't work then you can just smack her around a bit, the tough ones can be the easiest to crack if you know their weakness. And in Patricia's case, that's Eddie. I think you know what to do, don't you?"
Smack her around a bit? I do not like the sound of this, they can't hurt Patricia! And what does she mean by "I'm her weakness?"
"Of course not! We can't actually take him, I think Eric would notice if his own son went missing! God Vera, sometimes you're so ignorant."
Vera?! Vera was behind this? That means Vera has Patricia! I sneak away from the door and run back into my room to tell Fabian.
That's all for now! Someone asked how long this story would be, honestly I'm not really sure haha. At most it'll probably be about 15 chapters, but it might end up being more like 10 or 11. Reviews make me smile and right now I am smiling a lot! I'm hoping that by the time this story ends, It will get 100 reviews:D I'll try to update later today! Byeeeeeee!
