The Mistake | Colby Brock

Chapter Seven- Not the Same

Jordan's pov
I coughed up blood. That rich dark colored one that's from deep inside of you. What happened? I choked again and more blood fell from my mouth. What was making me do this? I get up and walk from a bed just to be violently yanked back down with chains thicker than i've ever seen. I whimpered as i noticed how my neck, wrists, and ankles are chained up , one end on me the other into the wall. I cried silently as i was being strangled to death by these.
Colbys pov
I tried to help her. Jake just had to barge in and ruin it. I felt like i was going somewhere with that talk, besides the fact that i was pinned up on the floor...
I open the door to the traphouse with taco bell in hand. Seeing it's just the boys here and Ayria makes me sigh in happiness. Don't get me wrong i love our friends it's just too much people at one time you know? Ayria caught my eye as i grabbed a taco from my bag and sped over here. "Hey uh man i wanted to wait to tell everyone but she's awake and i think you need to check on her. I went up there and she didn't eat , talk , or even look at me but i heard her whimpers from downstairs." Ayria whispered to me. I sighed "Okay i'll check it out, thanks man i appreciate it." "No problem dude." He grabbed the bag with food in it and turned around, but before he walked away he swept around and threw me a taco. "For her." I nodded and turned on my heels to the staircase. I quickly and quietly made it up there as she was staying in the guest room. I open the door to see her with a bucket and blood pouring out of her mouth. I gasped looking at the bulkiest chains i've ever seen. She looked at me then back down as the slid to the floor from against the wall and pulled her knees up to her head and sobbed. Here comes the guilt. I walked to her, closing the door behind me and sat infront of her. "I-i'm sorry." She squeaked. I sighed again and sat next to her on the wall and side hugged her. "I know , i know." "I-it hurts Colby, it feels like i'm not the same anymore, like a piece of me is being slowly ripped out of me." I furrowed my eyebrows and looked at her as she lifted her arms and groaned from just lifting them. "It's okay, you don't have to show me." I moved so i was infront of her again and gave her a taco. "I brought you taco bell sense i heard you haven't eaten anything." "What's that?" Did this girl just- if she hasn't had taco bel- what has she had- i- "you don't know what taco bell is?" She shook her head. "what HAVE you eaten at home?" i asked, i'm honestly curious. "That place is not my home." she looked away from me and back to her hands and said. "Whenever i chose not to eat they would shove tubes down my throat and feed me like that. i was supposed to get another treatment the day of the explosion." Wait what? that was 2 days ago. So she probably hasn't eaten in 4 days. How is she not dead?? "Stop." She said as she looked back down at her hands, i gave her a confused look "stop what?" "Stop looking at me like i'm crazy, i'm not crazy." "i didn't say that, nor did i think that, anyway i brought you a taco. it's kinda like a sandwich in a way. Just try it and tell me what you think." She shook her head. "Please Jordan, you haven't eaten for about 4 days just please." "I can go a week without eating as for all of you, i think i'll be fine." "Please Jordan, at least try..for me?" she then gave me the craziest look in history. "Stop acting like this is some romance story, Colby." She shifted her hand up and grabbed the taco, hissing in pain while doing it. "Let me jus-" she cut me off. "I can do it by myself." She grabbed the taco and let out a sigh in relief. And almost took a bite out of it. WITH THE WRAPPER ON. "Woah, woah, woah, woah." i grabbed the taco from her and took the wapper off. "This is paper , you kinda don't wanna eat that." i chuckled and handed it back to her. This whole time i noticed she hasn't smiled once. Maybe we're going too hard on her? Well she did almost kill us multiple times but she's still human. "Why are you staring." she said, still mid bite. "Just thinking... maybe i can work something out with Jake to get these chains off soon. Let you see the outside world and stuff." My phone went off as a text from Sam

sam: hey bro Jake wants you down to talk about the whole situation we got going. take your time tho.

colby: okay , i'll head down in a sec thanks.

Just as i sent that Jordan poked my phone, making me flinch in instinct. "What's that?" She asked. How long has she been in a rock for? "Oh uh this is my phone, you use it to call people or check up on them , me and my friends do this thing called social media and we have this really big fan base and... sorry i'm rambling." She didn't look annoyed though, not like any girl i've talked to. she seemed interested. "Tell me more." She said with her eyebrows furrowed. "You sure? i should actually be heading downstairs right now. Maybe we can talk later?" I honestly needed to get downstairs and maybe she'll want to see me again as much as i wanted to see her. "Sure." is all she said, with that i cleaned up our mess and headed for the door. when i heard her soft voice again. "Colby?" "Yes?" i said turning to look at her. Her sad eyes were more soft this time, making a small smile smirk up on my face. "Thank you." she said as a small smile appeared on her flawless face. wait... she smiled. It made me all cheery to see her at least slightly happy. "No problem, see you seen Jor , if you need anything just holler." With that i head out. Walking down the steps and to the kitchen. Ready to face the 'so dangerous' Jake Weiner oh wait Webber "Heyy!" Jake screamed. I chuckled and opened the garage door.
