A/N- Sorry this took so long, I really wanted to update, but I always found something else to do… you know how it is! Thanks for the reviews… I hope to get more soon! As always, hope you enjoy!

Emma stared at the knife in Maddi's carefully manicured hand, the sharp nails that could do just about the same amount of damage as the knife. Emma was scared out of her mind, silent tears running down her face.

Scream! She heard a voice in her head. Scream while you can, then run! But there was also another voice in her head, telling her that if she ran, Maddi would easily catch her, and wouldn't be afraid to hurt her.

Emma didn't know what to do, so she just wiped away her tears and nodded. Maddi relaxed a bit, and put the knife away, then took Emma by the elbow with a very tight grip, and led her back to the car. "Ok, we're ready to go," said Maddi, still holding onto Emma. Maddi opened the sleek black back door of the car, then unnecessarily helped her into the car.

When she was seated, she watched Maddi carefully, watching for clues for small things, like whether or not to wear a seat belt, and how to put your legs, and where to put her hands. If Emma was going to get murdered for not doing this, she sure as hell didn't want to screw it up. The guy in the front seat turned around.

"Hey beautiful." He said, "I'm Cory." Emma gave him a half-hearted smile and introduced herself as Em. He seemed satisfied, and turned around, put the car in gear, then took off. They drove for about ten minutes, Emma shaking and sweating profusely the whole time. Then the car stopped, and Maddi and Cory got out, Maddi opening the back door for Emma to get out.

While she was climbing out Emma caught Maddi looking at her with sharp eyes, as if to say 'Don't you even think about running.' Emma looked around and saw that they were in a heavily wooded area, on a gravel driveway in front of an immense log house.

It was about two or three stories high, with peaked roofs, beautifully shaped windows, and about four balconies, coming out of different sides of the house. Cory started walking, his arm around Maddi's waist, and Emma meekly followed them. They went in silence, the only sounds were the chirping of the birds and the crunch of the gravel underneath their shoes.

Cory pulled some keys out of his pocket and unlocked the heavy-looking door. He opened it, as it creaked in protest. Maddi and Emma walked in, and removed their shoes. Emma looked around her.

The house was very clean, a lot cleaner than hers. There were a couple works of art hung up on the walls, looking down on very comfy and expensive looking furniture. Cory told Maddi to sit down on the couch, and asked Emma to follow him. Maddi sat down as she was told, and grabbed a magazine from her purse, and started to flip through it.

Emma silently followed Cory, desperately wanting to know where he was taking her. Is he going to take turns with us? Thought Emma nervously, Or is he just going to use me, and use Maddi as his arm candy later tonight? Whatever was going to happen, Emma just knew she was wishing she hadn't walked out on her mom. She could've stayed home, and she'd be listening to Linkin Park in her room at this moment.

She followed him up the spiral staircase, and down a hallway. Cory stopped in front of a closed door, and knocked. Emma heard noise coming from inside the room, then it opened. A young guy, about 20 was leaning against the doorway, squinting out into the brightly-lit hall with dark green eyes.

His short brown hair was messy, not in a sloppy way, but in a way that made you want to mess it up even more. He was wearing a pair of black boxer shorts, showing off his muscular stomach and chest.

"Whatup?" he asked Cory.

"Since you were bitching and complaining about being so lonely lately, I brought you a 'friend'" replied Cory, matter of factly. The guy's eyes swept to the right, and widened. "You brought me a hooker?" he exclaimed. Cory nodded. "Least I can do after you helped me out bro." A smile spread across the friend's face, then he nodded, and opened his door wide open, motioning to Emma to go in. Emma walked in and stood awkwardly in the middle of the room, as Cory and his friend exchanged a few words.

The room was really dark, the only light coming from a TV screen, where a great big red 'PAUSED' flashed on the screen, with some sort of skateboarding game immobile in the background. From what Emma could see while her eyes adjusted, there was a double bed to her left, and the TV was sitting on a long dresser that stretched to almost the other end of the room. There was a heavily curtained patio door in the opposite wall, not letting any of the remaining dusk light in. The very left corner closest to Emma had a small tidy bookcase and a cushy black lounge chair.

The door clicked behind her, and Emma whirled around to look at the person she was to be soon sleeping with. He gave her a small smile. "So you're Em," he inquired. Emma nodded. "I'm Ryan."

A/N 2- I was really tired when I wrote the last part of this story, so sorry if it doesn't make much sense. Also, I tried to put a lot more detail into the chapters. What do you think? PLEASE review, it makes all of the difference in the world!
