Sadie's POV

**Week Five**

Today, I was dressed in some black shorts and a white t-shirt. Kyle enters the room and I smile. "Hey," I say.

"Hey," Kyle says. "How are you today?"

"Good," I say.

Kyle kisses my cheek. Kyle was a great person. I cared for him. I knew I shouldn't be with him. I loved Anubis and I wanted to be with him more than anything. I've been here for five weeks and I was losing hope. When will Anubis be coming to get me? Will he be coming to get me? Would Set kill me first? Set wants me dead to get revenge for my father stealing the love of his life. I knew I probably wasn't going to make it out of this place alive. I thought about how I'd never see my brother, my father, my uncle, my friends, Anubis again. Having Kyle around definitely made me forget about those things. When he isn't with me, I'm back to thinking about Anubis.

"What are you thinking about?" Kyle asks.

"Everything," I say. "I may never see my brother, father, uncle, friends or anyone I care about again."

"You will," Kyle says. "Set won't get his way."

"What if he does," I say. "I don't have that much hope. It's been five weeks. My dad and brother are probably thinking I'm already dead. They could be planning my funeral right now."

Kyle puts his arms around me. I rest my head on his shoulder. "Don't worry Sadie," Kyle says. "Anubis is probably trying everything he can to get you. If I were him, I'd be doing the same thing. You're a special girl that's worth saving."

"I don't know what I would've done without you here," I say. "Thank you for being here."

"It's not like I have anything better to do," Kyle says. "Having you around has been the highlight of my life."

"Just wait until you see the world outside of this building," I say. "That will be the highlight of your life."

"I'm sure it will," Kyle says. "Especially since I won't have to live with my father anymore."

"The police will put you in witness protection so you can stay hidden until they get Set and Markus," I say.

"It will be worth it," Kyle says.

The door opens. "Kyle," The guard says. "Time to go."

"It's early," Kyle says.

"Set wants to speak with her," The guard says. "Your time is going to be cut short today."

"Okay," Kyle says. He looks at me. "Bye."

"Bye," I say. "I'll see you tomorrow."

Kyle smiles at me before he turns and goes with the guard. A few minutes later the door opens again. I expect it to be a guard. It was Set.

"Hello Sadie," Set says. "How are you today?"

"How are you?" I ask confused. "I didn't think you made room visits."

"I usually don't," Set says. He looks at the wall. "Counting down the days are we." He walks over to the wall and runs his hand over the marks.

"Is that what people do when there unwillingly locked up?" I ask sarcastically.

"I see you've gotten quite use to having Kyle around," Set says. He sits down in the chair. I stayed were I was sitting on my bed.

"Kyle is a good person," I say. "Which, is surprising considering he was raised here."

"Him and Anubis both were supposed to be here," Set says. "Ruby inspired them to rebel that day I had her watch them. Kyle has paid for Anubis's escape and his two attempted escapes."

"He deserves better than this place," I say. "He has no friends his age. Do me a favor. If you kill me. Let Kyle go."

"That's not my choice Sadie," He says. "It's up to Markus."

"I hope Anubis gives you what you deserve," I say. "Anubis is never going to side with you."

"I'm sure he will," He says. "He'll understand me eventually. He just needs a push."

"Or a new father figure," I say.

"Your mom was as sarcastic and sassy as you too," Set says. "That's what I loved most about her."

"She probably never loved you," I say. "Something tells me, you weren't her type."

"You seem different," Set says. "You're losing hope. You are starting to think that Anubis isn't looking for you. Thinking maybe he never cared about you as much as you thought he did. Which, could possibly be true. Then, you'll understand loving someone who didn't love you."

"So, either way it works your going to teach someone a lesson. If Anubis comes your going to kill me, to prove what? That you don't care about his feelings. If he doesn't, I'll understand what you went through. Not having the person, you care about love you back." I say.

"Not exactly," He says. "You're close. There's more to the plan if Anubis comes. You'll see eventually."

"Why are you doing this?" I ask. "Ruby, wouldn't love you for what you're doing."

"I would have been a whole different person if Ruby choose me," Set says. "She didn't choose me."

"I wouldn't choose you either," I say.

"Like mother, like daughter," Set says. He looks at his watch. "I must be going."

Set leaves and I sit alone.

I spend the next day hanging out with Kyle. We were both laying down in my bed. My arm was beside his. We looked up at the ceiling. "You know," I say. "People are usually outside looking at clouds or stars. Not ceilings."

"That sounds fun," Kyle says. "I'll have to try that sometime."

"Yeah," I say. I remembered the night on the truck bed. Anubis and I watched the stars until I feel asleep. I remembered waking up in his arms and smiling. My mind always wondered back to Anubis.

"How are your ribs?" I asked.

"It doesn't hurt as much when I move or breath," He says. "It's still a little bruised."

"So is your eye," I say.

"Yours is almost healed," He says. He touches the bruise by my eye.

The guard opens the door. "Kyle."

"Yes," He says. "I'm coming."

"Bye Kyle," I say. "See you tomorrow."

"Bye Sadie," He says. I watch as he gets up and leaves the room. I was alone again to think about Anubis.

Hope you enjoyed. I know the chapters are short, that's because I want the weeks to be different. I know you guys are probably waiting for Sadie and Anubis to reunite. It should be coming up soon. I've been inspired for writing this. I get writers block sometimes but I'm back on track.
