'Well, what now?' 

You laid on your bed, looking up at the ceiling. You didn't have your phone, or your laptop, and your parents took your car keys so you couldn't leave. You were gonna be home alone everyday for the next 10 days. You could easily just walk somewhere, which you were probably going to do, just to get out of the house, but you were miserable. Five days into your "house arrest", you thought you were going insane. You've had no communication to the outside world and you found yourself rocking back and forth on the floor. It was almost time for school to be over which means Seokmin will be home soon. Seokmin told you that Sophia has been kind enough to bring him home and take him to school while you're suspended. Besides coming to give you your assignments, Seokmin hasn't really been talking to you and you hoped he wasn't mad at you. You heard the front door open then close. You walked out of your room to see Seokmin coming up the stairs to his room. He stopped in the middle of the hall when he saw you. 

"Hi, um, how was school?" You asked. 

"It was good. How was your day at home?" 

"Boring." He lightly chuckled and walked in to his room. You followed him and leaned against the door frame. "Are you mad at me?" You asked. 

"Why would I be mad?" You paused for a second. 

"Because of what happened with Mae. You know it wasn't my fault, right?" 

"Why didn't you tell anyone about what Mae was doing to you?" He asked. 

"What do you know about?" 

"I know that she dumped her smoothie on you, and I'll believe you if you say Mae started the fight." You sighed. 

"So now do you know why I told you to stay away from Mae?" 

"Yeah, but I really believed it when I saw her with her hands all over some guy then later she tried to do the same to me. How come you never told anyone?" You sighed. 

"She's hurt me in so many ways over the years, I guess I was scared." You said quietly. Seokmin suddenly came over to you a hugged you. You were a little surprised but hugged back. 

"If she does anything to you again, you tell me, okay?" You nodded, then thought about what Mae said. You were scared that it you old Seokmin and he confronted her, she would hurt him. 

"You don't like her, do you?" You mumbled. 

"What? No way!" 

"Just making sure. What about Sophia?" 

"What about her?" 

"Do you like her? I'm just curious." 

"No. She's a good person and all, but-" He trailed off, looking at you. 

"But what?" He shook his head. 

"Nothing. Let me know if you need any help with your school work." You decided to leave him alone and went to your room. 

'Why was he looking at me like that?' A spark of hope ignited inside you as you thought that he could possibly like you. Later in the evening, your parents came home from work and your mom came into your room. 

"We're going out to dinner, do you want to come or stay here?" She asked. You really wanted to go, but you were really behind on your assignments. 

"I'll stay here." You mumbled sadly. 

"Are you sure?" You nodded. 

"Alright, we'll be back later." 

After they left,  you were still focusing on your work when you heard the doorbell ring. 'Who could be here at this time?' You got up to answer the door. You opened it with no hesitation, but there was no one there. You thought it was just a kid playing ding dong ditch, so you were about to just close the door, but a foot stopped it. 'What the-' Suddenly, the door was flung open and two masked people barged in and grabbed you. You started screaming, but one held a cloth over your mouth. Your first instinct was to hold your breath, but you were to shaken with fear that you took a breath anyway. Eventually, you started seeing black dots and you were getting dizzy.  You saw a third person come in, who was slightly smaller than the ones holding you. The person set a piece of paper on the dinning room table, them pointed a finger to the door. The two who held you started walking out the door. It was dark outside and you couldn't see anyone around. Before you knew it, you were being pushed into a black van. You didn't have the energy to fight or scream, so you gave up. "Nighty night, say goodbye to your precious life."
