Chapter 12
Serena's POV (finally i know haha)
Recap of serena because it was a while ago:
"i know i'm sorry serena please come out! It's just well..."
"no jake, you don't know me at all, you just kidnapped me." He didn't know anything about me like what my favourite colour was, what my favourite tv show was etc. An here i was kissing him, it was so wrong on so many terms........but then why did it feel so right, in a wierd way.
"actually i saw you before..well before we...um..we kidnapped you, i had the job of watching you to know how we could get you without being noticed" he was speaking softly as if he was ashamed of himself, and damn right he should be ashamed he was spying on me? For how long? Crap what did he see? That was all i could think.
I got up and slowly opened the door to a frowning Jake, i walked past him and sat on the bed. Jake stared at me as if he was hoping i would say something, but what could i say... i sighed this is all a nightmare.
"i..i don't know what to say. You were spying on me so you could kidnap me that sounds so sadistic." well serena its not as if you expected anything less from him, lets not forget he did umm.. kidnap you. I thought to myself
"i know and it was stupid but i can't just not obey their orders, these people are highly respected by many gangs, drug lords etc. I could be killed if i did something wrong. Trust me i never wanted to do anything to hurt you i swear." He had dropped his gaze to the floor as if he was embarrassed.
For a second i felt kinda bad for him,, but as quickly as i felt that i snapped out of it. No serena don't be ridiculous, i mentally slapped myself.
"ok jake so let me get this right. You were told to spy on me, for how long?"
"about 3 months" he looked out the window and then sat on the opposite side of the bed so weren't facing each other.
"ohh k so did you see..um..anything......" i paused what am i meant to say so did i do anything that you find interesting or something stupid. Gosh i can't remember what i did 3 months ago, it was all irrelevant. I sat there quietly waiting for his response, he can figure out what i was going to say.
We sat there for about a minute but it felt like an hour and i had, had enough so i stood upo and started pacing the room. Is he going to effing answer me? I looked over to him with frustration, i think he noticed my frustration because he started to speak.
"Serena sit here." He patted the seat next to me. I reluctantly walked over to him. " you did nothing wrong you could never do anything wrong, all i saw was your everyday things, you went to school, had fun with your friends and did normal teenage stuff, that i wish i could do. You did nothing embarrassing, and as i watched you i started to......" he stopped, as if he realised what he was going to say was not something to tell at this time. But i wanted to know! I looked at him but he didn't meet my gaze so i dropped it, but believe me it was hard.
What was he going to say?
..............................
...........................................................
I've been cooped up in this bedroom for a day and a half now with jake. He's being trying his best to amuse me but, really i just want to go home or confront my parents and be in their arms.
All i've been doing is watching movies, eating, sleeping, eating and watching more movies. How interesting i know. Ji really miss my bed and i think i'ma little homesick and i really need some sun! But jake is trying to make me feel comfortable even thought the other guys are real jerkoffs! I've only met them once during the past day and a half but from first glance, i. Don't. Like. Them. they think of me as a game, luckily for me they aren't allowed to touch me. Apparently some chick called Lesley (i've never met this Lesley person) told them that only jake could be near me, so they bring my food and either glare or snicker at me.....
jake and i are becoming closer, sometimes i'll catch him staring but it's not in a stalkery way it's more compassionate? I dunno i'm usually good at reading people but he's good at hiding his emotions. Things were a little awkward after our.... kiss but i like to think of things this way, things are only awkward if you make them awkward, so my motive is to not make it awkward and i'm doing well.
Nahh he's a great guy helping me out and he's trying to make me feel comfortable. Which is working because for some unusual reason i feel safe around him and that's what i'm stuck on. Why is he here in this messed up place when hes such a nice, sweet, funny, kind, hot.....ok stop now...etc. guy?
God now i'm thinking about how hot he is! Well i guess he is pretty hot and he's got great abs, yesterday he came out of the shower and i guess he forgot i was there because he came out in only a towel. I nearly had a fit, but now that i think about it i think he did it on purpose because even Stevie wonder wouldn't be able to miss the smirk on his face when he caught me
"serena?...serena? EARTH TO SERENA!!" i heard someone yelling at me, snapping me out of my mind ramble.
"huh? Ohh sorry, i was..err thinking?" well that was convincing...not.
"sure, anyway i'm going to get us some lunch from the chinese shop a couple blocks away and i was wondering, if i can convince Derek to let you come with me, do you want to come?" he said looking hopeful
"yes." I blurted out as soon as i heard come with me. Anything to get out of this damn room. how could he not have suggested this earlier! Lets hope Derek says yes. From what Jake told me, Derek is the dumb one but also the biggest and meanest. So convincing him shouldn't be too hard and then when the others find out if jake says Derek let him they can't do much. Good plan jake good plan.
"ok i'll go ask dek then. I'll be beck in a few." He called as he walked out the door. He seems excited. I'm just relieved to get out. Maybe i can convince jake to let me shop for a bit! I am dying and need some new clothes, wearing jakes sweats and t-shirts aren't really my style....
5 minutes later jake returned with a fist pump and a 'woo'
"so i'm guessing i can see the sunlight, touch the earth, see some light, feel some fresh air, feel the wind on m.."i said motioning with my arms. Jake just rolled his eyes, he's used to my craziness...sort of.
"yessss! Now shut up" he said grinning like an idiot.
I quickly dashed into the bathroom checked my hair, in need for a cut but looking ok... and my face, i need to buy some make up! But not too bad.
My clothes...not even going there. And thats all i can do, i guess it's not as if i'm going to impress anyone. Speaking of people maybe someone will realise its me and report it. hope started to rise in me, but then it dawned on me that, barely anyone would know i'm missing yet, because it hasn't been that long. And the thought of going back home and not seeing jake kind of made me a feel a little upset? I mean he's a good friend but would i really miss him? He did kidnap me afterall.
"are you done yet??" jake called, oh yeah i've probably been in here for 10 minutes just thinking, how stupid. I chuckled to myself and walked out the door.
"Sorry i was just checking that i look half-decent before going out in public." I said smiling sweetly at him.
"yeah, yeah now lets go or the other guys will find out and get pissed."
We walked out the door and as we did i realised that i haden't actually been out of room, so this place was new to me......and big!
We walked downa massive flight of stairs and then to the left was a living room and a study and then on the right was a meeting room, orwhat looked like that at least. We were now walking through a corridor that seemed to go on for years with doors left right. JEEZ WHAT IS THIS PLACE??
Then we walked out into what seemed like a foyer and then out some massive wooden doors.
As soon as we got out the doors i turned around to see what this place was and was astonished and amazed at what i saw. It was like...a castle? Like one of those old duke houses, that would have been owned by a freakishly rich person in the olden days. It looked beautiful from the outside.
"how could this place be something so bad?" i asked mainly at myself but apparently Jake heard because he replied.
"that's exactly what i thought when i got here, but then i forgot about how nice it was when i found out what the people did in it etc. It's not as appealing now." I just stood there with my mouth open until jake came over and shut it for me. Then he swiftly picked me up and put me over his shoulder, fireman style. Nice view of his ass. I almost slapped myself, i can't think those things.
"put me down shrek!"
"Hmmm?? No" i could hear the smile in his voice.
"don't you dare fart!" i demanded, he just chuckled then put me in the car.
"hmph." i mumbled as i crossed my arms. Inside i was smiling. Being with jake is just fun. He got in and then we were off.
"how long is this ride going to take? Cause i'm already bored." I said smirking.
"oh serena i'm boring you? How can this be?" he said rolling his eyes. We are very sarcastic people, but then again who isn't sarcastic these days?
"yes you are."
"well i'm i will try and unbore you?" he smirked. "oh and it will take about an hour and a half to get into town. So relax and get ready for a fun road trip into town." He put his arms up and i immediately put my hands on the wheel.
"jake you douche, drive, we aren't on a freaking rollercoaster."
"we aren't? how disappointing." he said faking hurt and taking the wheel again. As i rolled my eyes.
...............................................................
As jake said it took an hour and a half to get into town, because the stupid idiot's who were keeping me captive didn't want to be near town because well they are bad, to narrow it down. haha. I wasn't bored at all the whole road trip. We spoke aimlessly about anything and everything. There was a bit of flirting a lot of joking so it was fun, talking with Jake just comes easily, oddly enough.
"come on get out." I got out of the car and found that we weren't in Sydney anymore. That's really odd! How could i not know that i was that far away from home. I was ,in fact, in woolongong. What the fudge muffins?
"umm please explain...." i said looking at Jake questionly. By the look on his face i think he knew what i meant.
"oh yeah i guess i forgot to tell you." He said rubbing the back of his neck nervously. "we're kinda not in Sydney anymore." He laughed awkwardly and i slapped him on the back of his head.
"idiot! I can't believe you didn't tell me we were that far away!" now no one will recognise me! All hopes of being saved are gone. Puck my life, i thought but deep deep deep down somewhere something was grateful that i wasn't going to be found, because that meant more time with Jake. This boy is really getting to me....... i'm not sure if that's a good thing.......
