It's funny how much things change. The moment you thought you hated everything around you, you eventually miss every little thing about it.

I never thought it would happen to me but it did.

It all happened so fast, I still can't entirely grasp what happened.

We had finished detention and were walking out the school gates around 5.

The walk was quiet but it was nice,
until eventually, Breezy spoke,

"Thanks for sticking up for me, it was pretty cool." she smiled, playfully punching me in the shoulder

"Oh, that? don't mention it." I shrugged,

She offered me some gum, and I gladly took one.

"Got a name?" She smirked

"Aiden," I said turning to look at her,

Breezy turned to me and smiled, but then her smile had vanished and turned to a scrunched up expression.

Her face went pale, and she backed up slowly.

"What's wrong?" I said turning around to the direction when everything had gone dark.

And then I heard screaming and we were both on the floor.

I can still feel the cold cemented pavement on my skin,

And remember how fast my heart was beating and the sure feeling of fear I had felt.

I had regretted everything and everything that had happened.

Not just me but also to her.

I woke up, (surely) with a bag over my head.

Then it was removed and a bright warm light was flashed in my face.

My vision began to blur, and I fell back.

I woke up against a wall, and my arms tightly tied behind my back.

I woke up in a panic, still trying to process everything that was going on.

"Where!? What- Where is S-" I hollered only to have Breezy cover my mouth.

"Shhhhhhh" she hissed

How did she get her hands free?

Either I had a really confused look on my face, cause she just gave me an annoyed look,

And waved around a pocket knife,

She untied the rope that was tied,

I gave my wrists a little shake and thanked her,

"Oh and I'm Emma by the way." She said

"Oh ...right...Emma." I said looking around the room,

It was dark and cold. It was really hard to make up what was in the room.

But I could only feel what was around me, and Emma's dark figure.

I was surprised she was able to cut the ropes so quickly.

"Got a plan?" She whispered,

"Actually, not exactly," I said still trying to see through the dark, as my eyes were very blurred.

She looked around the room and looked up at the ceiling.

"Look there's a vent up there!" Emma whispered,

"How can you see so well in the dark?" I asked in disbelief,

I could feel her eyes roll at me with annoyance once more.

"Plus, how are we going to get that thing open?" I questioned,

"Hey they didn't take my jacket, you'd be surprised how many small pocket tools I carry around." She smirked

"Now hurry up and make your self useful."

I shrugged and put out my hands on my knee,

She stepped and I lifted her up.

"Okay so all I have to do is get these 4 screws out and we'll be home free! Hopefully...." Emma whispered

"Good cause my arms are getting tired..." I sighed as my arms were getting wobbly.

"Hey! Keep still!" She hissed,

"Trying!" I hummed,

One of the screws dropped on the floor and made a loud clank

"Hey be careful! Try not to drop them!" I said a little anxious,

Then another dropped,

Then... another one,

But then I heard footsteps and a slight sound of jingling keys.

"Emma hurry up!" I whispered,

"I'm trying! I'm trying!" Emma said voice reading panic

The jingling key sound was getting louder and louder by the minute.

"Emma you almost-"

"Just one more screw..." her voice trailed,

I widened my eyes in the direction of the noise.

It was too late there wasn't going to be enough time.

As I heard the loud creaking turn of the knob,

I yanked Emma down and hid her head into my chest and closed my eyes shut.

My heart

Beating out of control.
