Fear shall not show.

There is a faint tapping at the door, waking me from the light nap I was having. I mustn't have answered fast enough because the door edges open and a small girl, about 13 years old, walks in carrying a tray filled with food which she places on the end of my bed. Her long brown hair, similar to mine, shielding her face from me.

"Wait" I call to her as she starts to leave. "Do you want some of this?" I ask. She shakes her head and hurriedly exits the room. Weird.

I scoot to the end of the bed to inspect what food I could eat. My stomach growling in approval. It has to have been a good old couple of days since I last ate.

Croissants, Bowl of grapes, Cheese sandwhich, and a glass of orange juice. Not bad. I Guzzle it all down way too fast, to the point that I am sure to throw up. Also on the tray I notice two small pills along with a note.

These should help with the pain on your back

I Quickly take them, washing them down with the rest of the orange. I instantly feel the relief on my back from the drugs and think it is time to take a shower.

I Open the door to the bathroom and am surprised by the size of the bathroom, it's not the standard sink and toilet that I was suspecting. But a much larger room encased in crystal white tiles. Again there was no window, just like the bedroom, but there was a decent sized shower, Bath, sink and toilet. All astonishingly white and polished. There's a mirror right above the sink and for the first time since I was taken can I fully see what I look like.

In the mirror is a reflection of someone unrecognizable. My used to be thick dark curls are greasy strands that stick to my neck, the little make-up I wore on that day is smudged under my eyes which just enhance the already black bags under them. And my eyes. They stand out the most. They arnt the eyes I used to see. In my reflection. I see anger and strength behind them. Strength I don't have body wise. But mentally.

I Know I cannot break.

I step into the shower and allow the hot water to run down my body. Soothing every inch of me.

I am in there for a good half hour or so before I get out. Below the sink is a cabinet where I find towels along with all the standard toiletries, make-up and hairspray included.

I wrap one towel around my body and one around my hair. I go back to the room and close the bathroom around me. I scream as I see a body on my bed. Facing away from the bathroom. Something oddly familiar about the person. He spins around to face me and instantly turns back around with his hand over his eyes.

"Shit shit shit! I am so sorry I didn't mean to scare you. I Just need to talk to you! I swear I mean you no harm" He waffles on. I am still frozen. Emmett is on my bed. And I am here naked. Shit.

"Um. I will come back in five minutes and let you get changed. Again, im sorry" He hurriedly exits the rooms and I quickly run over to the wardrobe and pull out a bra and pants set, denim jeans and a black jumper. I Put them on in record time and towel dry my hair. Then sitting on my bed I hear a small knock coming from the door.

"Come in" I squeak out. Its slowly opens and Emmett's head pops through.

"Are you decent now?" He asks in a childlike voice. I nod my head and bring my knees towards my chest and hug them. He walks across the room to a chair I never noticed before. He sits on it then looks at me.

It's strange sitting there with my captor just meters in front of me. I Still feel no fear. Nor anger towards him. Like Alice said. It was mostly true. He is probably just as much a prisoner as me.

We sit there for a while before he finally breaks the tension and speaks up.

"I know you are probably afraid of me right now. And you have full right to be. Before I say anything. I Promise on my life that I will never hurt you intentionally. I Know I have already hurt you by condemning you to this life. But you have to understand I had no choice. And for that I am truly sorry Isabella." I Nod at this information. "I Hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me." He says as his head drops into his hands. His leg bobbing up and down. Just like the night we met. This I could see was genuine.

"I forgive you" I whisper.

His head shoots up. Confusion laced in his complexion. As if this wasn't the scene he had been running through his head.

Befor I know it, his giant frame is shaking, he grabs the chair he was sitting on and rams it into the concrete walls, giving a loud crunch which echoes around the room.

"YOU CANT FORGIVE ME THAT EASILY! HOW CAN YOU FORGIVE ME AFTER WHAT I HAVE DONE TO YOU! YOU WONT SURVIVE THIS. TRUST ME! I HAVE SEEN IT SO MANY TIMES, TO THOSE WHO HAVE LIVED THROUGH IT BEFORE. YOU WONT SURVIVE." He Explodes. Rage spilling from every angle.

He watch him drop to the floor with his arms cradled around him.

"You won't survive" I hear him sob. "And it's all my fault."

I quietly step off the bed and creep over to him. I sit in front and put a hand on his knee.

"Emmett. Don't you dare give up on me when I haven't had the chance to prove? I am stronger than I look. I won't crack Emmett. I refuse to." I Tell him with as much confidence as my voice would give.

"You don't know them. I want to be your friend Isabella. But they will make me do unforgivable things to you."

"Let them" I say. "It will be nice having a friend on the inside. Do what you have to do. I understand."

"Thank you Isabell-"

"Bella. Its Bella to my friends." I Cut in. Smiling at him encouragingly.

"Fine. Thank you, Bella, That's a lot of my conscience." He laughs and leans forward pulling me into a bear like hug. Its comforting. Really is.

"I Just hope you survive longer than I think" He says. I Nod into his shoulder.

"Emmett, I'm not going to if you continue to squeeze me the way you are" I choke out laughing.

The pressure loosens and I am back on the floor. "Shit, Sorry" He laughs with me.

"Well I better be going. I will try and visit when I can. But do me a favor. When you are out of here. Fear me. If they found out we are cool. I'd dread to think what happens." Terror in his eyes. I agree with him and he leave.

"See you soon. Bella"
