You know the drill:Ryn's POV. Hope you enjoy- it took long enough to get up, what with FanFiction blowing up n stuff! @_@

Bit just stood staring stupidly at the door for a minute. "Lily!" he shouted as he pounded on it and turned the doorknob uselessly.
"Save your breath," I told him as I hopped off the sink. "They can hear you, but they're not unlocking the door." Bit blinked, not catching on. "They locked us in here on purpose," I explained irritably. I crossed my arms and leaned against the counter. "I am going to kill them when we get outta here."
Bit frowned. "Do you hate me that much?"
I laughed and shook my head. "I don't hate you! I-" I stopped suddenly as I realized what I had almost said and blushed.
"It's okay, I know," Bit smiled. He leaned against the sink next to me and rested his arm around my shoulders. I hadn't thought my cheeks could get any redder, but I guess I was wrong.
"Was it that obvious?"
"Well, yeah," he admitted. "You're not very good at pretending. Now…" Bit stood up and surveyed the room. "There's gotta be another way out besides the door. We could bust it open, but I don't think Lily or her parents would be too happy about that."
I nodded and dug around in my pockets. "I thought I had a paper clip in here earlier…" No good. I must've lost it somewhere. "Okay… nevermind… I don't think I could've picked the lock anyway," I said shrugging.
"Well,' Bit resolved, "They should let us out sooner or later, right?"
So we waited…
After five minutes I found myself counting the ceiling tiles. Another five minutes and Bit and I had a staring contest, which he won. So then we had a ten-minute long rematch and he won that too.
"Alright, I think they forgot about us," I said irritably. Bit just shrugged lazily. "I'm gonna try to get their attention," I said as I walked over to the door. I took a deep breath and shouted as loud as I could, "LILY! INDY! SOMEBODY! OPEN THE DOOR!" I pounded on it as hard as I could, but there wasn't any answer. I pressed my ear against the door and, sure enough, they had the radio turned on as high as it would go.
"What time is it?" Bit moaned. I showed him my watch, which read 5:45. "Oh…" He paused for a moment. "I'm hungry."
"That was random…"
"Yeah, but really, I'm hungry." He turned his jacket pockets inside out and CLANG!
I stared at him. "Why didn't you tell me you had a screwdriver?"
"Oops… I forgot about that…" Bit emptied his other pockets, revealing a dozen other tools (half of which I couldn't even name).
A sweatdrop rolled down the side of my head. "What do you carry all this for?"
"I get asked to fix stuff a lot, so I come prepared," he explained.
"Whatever…" I picked up the screwdriver and walked over to the door. "Help me unscrew it from the hinges."
Bit shook his head. "That won't work." He got up and stood beside me. "Since there aren't any hinges on this side the door wouldn't swing open."
"Never trust what ya see on TV..." I sighed and leaned against the sink. "They have five minutes to let us outta here before I break the door down!"
"Hang on…" Bit hugged me happily and finished, "I think I found our way out of here!"

Hmmm… Jenashu's turn! You said you wanted to write a little about this and, well, I was out of ideas… ^^;; Hopefully you can think of something I couldn't. If not, then lemme know and I'll change the last part for you, okies?
My comment on this chapter: Bit's pockets must be very heavy. ^.^
