Frank tried to sit up when he heard footsteps outside the room. Looking up, he saw Ryan entering. He leaned towards him and whispered, "Look, I've got an idea. Will's gonna come to look at you soon…I've told him you're still unconscious. Jane's the mastermind here. She's out for a while. I'm going to tell Will that you've woken up now so that he can come to see you. And then…"

Frank smiled. Ryan's idea was so simple. After a few minutes, Will entered the room, Ryan behind him. Frank looked at Will. He hadn't changed much. Smirking Will said, "What are you looking at dork?"

"Just confirming that you're the same old stupid whose ass I'm gonna kick when I'm free," answered Frank.

"Tut tut …Mr. Hardy, show respect to your seniors. And besides how do you plan to escape? It's impossible."

"Show respect my ass…you're gonna pay for what you've done to all those girls and Nancy."

"Oh really? And who's going to make me pay? You're bound here and no one knows you're here of all places."

Smiling, Frank answered, "Look behind you…"


Nancy heard noises from outside her room. Suddenly the door opened and Frank entered. He quickly went up to Nancy and cut her ropes with a broken piece of glass. Nancy looked at him astounded. As soon as she was free, Frank pulled her into his arms.

Sighing, she melted into his arms. After he released her, Nancy looked up at him. Smiling, she stood up on her toes and kissed him. Frank was caught offguard but slowly his hand twirled into Nancy's hair, the other hand held her waist and pressed her close to his body. He kissed her back. Years of held up passion and attraction came out in that kiss.

They had to break of the kiss soon as someone coughed behind them.

"Umm guys? Can you please hurry up? We're really short of time here."

Turning around, Nancy saw Ryan at the doorway.

Ryan looked at her sheepishly. "Hey um… what I said back then…I didn't mean it really. And I'm really sorry."

Nancy looked at Frank questioningly. "Tell you the story later. Now we seriously have to leave," said Frank "and Nancy?"

"Yes Frank?"

"I love you."

Nancy smiled. "I know"
