Lucy's POV

Life was just peachy.

Not.

But it couldn't have got any better honestly. That night when those weird people broke into our house, I thought that we were gonna be dead for good. But it turned out to be the exact opposite.

This place was just heaven. The plush couch, the food and heck they even had a Jacuzzi. If this was what being kidnapped meant then hell I would give myself in any day. But this wasn't home.

Home was where we were all together.

Without Thea, no place could ever be home.

"Lucy when are we gonna get to see Tee?" asked Macy, frowning. It was clear to me whoever was behind this didn't want any of the girls to be harmed. Hell, they even bought them toys. But the kids weren't really falling for it now though.

On the first day we were brought here they were quiet and scared. A few days passed they warmed up to everyone including these two men who came to visit us from time to time.

There was an old lady who cooked for us and three men who just stood walking around the penthouse. According to them, they were 'guarding' us but lord knows from what.No one was willing to give out any information out.

And as days passed by the girl's started asking questions. 'Why are we here?' 'When are we going home?' and the most common one: where was Thea?

"She's going to come soon love," I said with a smile. They all stop playing and looked at me with somewhat confused faces.

"But you say that yesterday"

"And the day before"

"Last week"

"Ever since we got here!"

"I want to see Tee!"

"I wanna see her too!"

"I wanna-"

And thus that's how another round of shouting and whining started.

...

In the afternoon the two guys came by again. This time I was not gonna let them go away without giving me any answers.

I've had enough.

The brown haired guy approached me with a smile. While the other one went to where the girls were.

"Hey Lucy, how you doing?"

"Okay, so is there anything you guys need or...?"

"Um...do the kids need diapers?"

"Lucy?"

"Hey, are you ignoring me?"

"Oh come on I thought we were friends," he whined.

"I've got gummy bears," he said dangling a packet in front of my face. Scowling, I harshly grabbed it from his hands.

"When are you guys gonna let us out of here?"

Immediately his face became guarded, all the playfulness vanished away.

"That's confidential information"

What a loyal dog

"How long are you planning to keep us here?"

"Until it is needed."

"Where is Thea?"

"Somewhere safe"

"That's what you tell me all the time now give me a place or name you dimwit"

"I told you it's confidential" he snapped loudly.

"Don't shout at me" I said glaring at him.

"Well stop asking me damn questions"

"I don't like you"

"Do I look like I care?" replied Blake harshly.

I looked at up at him in surprise. Through all my time here he had never spoken to me that way. Immediately I got up and threw the bag of gummy bears at his face and left the living room.

...

Drake's POV (aka faggot XD)

"Ouch ouch ouch watch the hair!"

"No no absolutely not"

"No go awa-"

But it was too late.

I was getting attacked by five girls. One was trying to comb my hair but she was honestly just drilling my head, the other girl was pulled my ears and the other three were singing very loud.

"Blakey" said Anna pulling my cheeks. I groaned in annoyance but they just laughed at my misery.

Honestly though, they have really grown on me.

In between their fit of giggles, one of them looked at me in all seriousness and asked,

"Bwakey do you know where Tee is?"

I gulped inaudibly, being caught off guard. Now five pairs of curious eyes were on me, waiting for an answer.

"I-I'm sorry I don't know kid."

"Oh," said the little one with a crestfallen face. Immediately the atmosphere changed. No one was no longer smiling or playing, they were all just fiddling around staring at the floor and elsewhere.

Suddenly the door opened and Lucy stormed in, looking angry.

My brother has royally screwed up.

She came walked in and gestured me to come.

Once I was out she grabbed me by my shirt and pulled me. Caught off guard, I was sprung forward right in front of her face.

"Tell m-"

"I'm gay"

"What?" she said releasing her death grip off me.

"I don't like you that way."

"What the hell are you talking about?" she asked.

"You were gonna kiss m-"

"No I wasn't, you pea-brain"

"Oh," I said, embarrassed. My secret was out and in hands of a she-devil.

"Where is Thea?"

"She's in safe hands"

"Not good enough, now I'm gonna ask you one more time and you will answer me," she said, with a very angry glint in her eyes.

This woman had either changed or was bipolar. That angry facade did not suit her.

"I swear I will bust your head open if you don't name a place so tell me, where is Thea?" she asked slowly.

"She's dead"

Both our heads snapped backward towards the voice.

"Thea Sanderson is dead, that is the truth that we wanted to protect you from but now I guess it's about time you knew, "said my brother Blake in all seriousness.

What the hell was he doing?

Lucy looked at Blake for a few minutes and then chuckled humorlessly.

"I don't believe you" she said fiercely. Before I could say anything a new voice joined in.

"That's a wise decision"

"Who the hell you are?" she asked, looking at the stranger in front of her.

"My name is Lucas Xander"
