DisClaimer: I don't own anything except . . . Arion, Isabel, Braedon, Abby, Kione, Nigol, and Leighs. HeHe. The song is by 12 Stones... it's called "the way I feel," thus the name of the song.
My World
Chapter 17 The Way I Feel
A new song finally flashed on the speakers, at the old store they were stuffed in, on the raspy radio. She listened to the lyrics with a new found appreciation.
"Lately I've been wandering
Off the narrow path
You've given me so many things that I've never had
And all in all I know it's you that always pulls me through
If you reach deep inside you'll see my heart is true
'Cause I hate the way I feel tonight
And I know I need you in my life
Yes I hate the way I feel inside
And I promise to make the sacrifice."
She looked at Gordo as he slept and thought about the recent events that got her here on this pile of cotton pjs with Braedon and Abby. After Gordo had left Arion and Isabel on the bed sleeping, they went to find Braedon and Abby. They found Abby asleep and Braedon toying with her brown tresses. Gordo told Braedon of the last moments of the game and where Isabel and Arion were and then Braedon fell asleep. Gordo had fallen asleep soon after Braedon, but Lizzie stayed awake looking at the now gray ceiling. She used her finger to get one curly strand of hair off Gordo's forehead and snuggled next to his shoulder and fell asleep.
Matt watched the decent of Miranda's lips to his with unbelieving eyes. Her soft pink lips touched his for just a brief moment before pulling back. Miranda felt like she was flying high above the evergreen trees. Matt felt as if someone had finally unlocked his secret cage. They just gazed at each other for a while, content in their surroundings. Suddenly they are snapped out of their dream world with yet, another cell phone call. Miranda looks at the phone number and reluctantly answers it, "Hello?"
"Do you want your friends back?" Nigol asked never showing his true identity.
Miranda looked at Matt horrified, "Y-Yes." She stammered.
"Bring one person and get on a plane for Little Rock, Arkansas, with the ransom money. Drive to Hot Springs and ask for directions for Leighs off of Central Avenue. Be there at 12 o'clock p.m. on December 31st. You have one day. You can only tell one set of parents about this phone call." Nigol finished as coldly as he began and hung up.
Miranda looked at Matt, "I guess you and I are going on a little rescue trip."
Gordo looked down on his shoulder where Lizzie was. Why didn't he kiss her yesterday? 'Because you don't know if she likes you-stupid'. He heard someone stir beside him and could only pray it was Abby. Braedon sat up and looked at Gordo, "Goo' Morning."
"Hey." Gordo said dryly.
"So what type of music do you play?" Braedon asked, remembering Gordo played many different instruments.
Gordo looked at him and said,
