PART 3 CHASIDY'S POV

They either think I'm completely stupid, or something bad is going on and I'm pitching for the latter. They know I'm not stupid, in fact they know that I am amazingly clever and cunning and they know that I'm not likely to just lay down and let them kill me. Not after leaving Leo behind to escape Ebony.

I have loved him almost as long as I've known him. Maybe even longer, and his face, on the night I left, all those years ago, is the only thing that has kept me going all this time, being Danielle, and Louise and Sasha, I'va fallen in and out of love with random people since I left, but Leo was the only one I have ever ireally/i given a sht about.

I hide behind the sarcastic comments, the snappy answers. I hide my true feelings behind raised eyebrows and smirks. I hide the fact that I love MD, simply because I know that if I let on, Ebony will kill me straight out.

She's so in love with him...

It's weird, Ebony was like a sister to me when I was growing up. We used to have sleepovers at each others houses. Our mom's would bake cookies, and we would eat them together while listening to the backstreet boys and playing Sindy's.

I always resented Barbie, she had the best clothes, she had Ken, and she had boobs. What more could a girl of 10 want?

It turned out, we both wanted Leo McDonna. From the moment we laid eyes on his perfectly rounded ss.

I looked up at the cell that I was laying in. My eyes darting along the walls. There was no escape.

"Chase."

I looked at Leo. "Yes?"

His eyes searched my face. "I want... I need answers."

"To what? Why I left? Where I went? So you can run along to your lover and tell her everything?" I smirked.

"Ebony's not my lover Chase. Why are you acting like a kid? I need answers for me. Not for anyone else."

"OK. I left, because to be honest I couldn't take anymore "Power and Chaos" bullsht! Ebony was turning into a fcking lunatic! It wasn't anything to do with you." I added in an underhand tone. "I went to the mountains mostly. To the hills. And yes Leo, before you ask, ius/i did mean something to me... infact it meant everything!"

He looked at me with his big, almost black eyes. "Ditto."

I smiled. "You used my word."

"You broke my heart."

"Fair point." I laughed. "OK, you can use the word."

A slight smile reached his lips. "I've missed you so much, but part of me wants to rip you to pieces."

"Ditto."

The door opened behind him and Ebony walked in, fire in her eyes. "What is this MD? Rendezvous with the prisoner are unacceptable" She stared at him.

"There was no rendezvousing. I assure you." He fixed the stern frown back on his face.

"Good. Then lets go." She took his hand and led him out of the room.

I was left staring at an empty wall. My heart overflowing with the things I wish I'd told him.
