Juliet's POV

I opened my eyes and looked around the still dark room.
I don't know why, but I felt really un easy...
Everyone but Finn was sleeping somewhere down stairs, either the couch,floor,or chairs.

"Maybe Finn is still awake.." I whispered to myself.

I stumbled up the stairs and knocked lightly on Finns bedroom door.

Finns POV

I heard a soft knock on my door.

I took of my blankets and opened it.
Their stood Juliet.
"Is something wrong?." I said softly.

"I don't know Finn...I just didn't feel comfortable down stairs..."

"Well what were you thinking?." I ask rubbing my fingers on the back of my neck.

"Oh...i don't know actrually..."

Hmmm.
"Hey wait, if it's not to weird...you can sleep on here, like on the couch if you want."
I hope she doesn't think I'm weird for asking her to sleep in here with me...

"Really Finn?." She said with a smile.

She slowly walked in dragging her red blanket and her pillow pet.

"You can lay right here." i said, gesturing to the black leather couch.

She nodded and laid down.
She then cuddled up to her pillow and blanket.

"Hey if you need to, just know I'm right here."

I laid down back under my covers and watched Juliet as she fell asleep.

sadly we have school tomorrow...
And oh sh🐾t, we have school in the morning.

I looked over at Juliet one more time then closed my eyes.

Jason's POV

I woke up with everyone else, sawyer was in the kitchen with kalel cooking breakfast.

I took a seat next to Finn.

After we ate I changed into a red T-shirt and some dark blue jeans.
I combed my hair to the right and but on some axe

I then brushed my teeth and headed down stairs.

"Everyone ready?." Finn asked.

We all nodded and headed to his car.

When we arrived at school the realization that we would face our teacher, the one that saw us in the woods, maybe he didn't see us.
Maybe he was camping or fishing with his friends not far...

I walked into my first class, Math.
I, hate math...

Juliet's POV

I walked into my 4th period....
Mr.willis my science teacher.

"Excuse me young lady, can you follow me outside for a moment,i need you to help me bring in some supplies for our project."

He guided me through the halls and out to his van.

"Don't scream." I heard him say.

Mr.willis took his hand and held it over my mouth.

I tried to make noice but his hand muffled my screams .

I then felt ducktape bind my hands together and then he put some over my mouth.

He opened the back of the van.

Inside I saw my friends, they had fear in their eyes.

Mr.willis threw me in the back and locked the backdoor.

"Oh my god, Juliet!." Finn said in fear.

"Did he hurt you?." He asked angrily.

I shook my head, my mouth was still taped shut.

"Damn it Finn take the ducktape off of her!." Jason said, he then ripped the tape of.

I felt my mouth as it stung with pain.

"you couldn't have been a little more careful Jason?." I said angrily.

I shrugged his shoulders and turned to face the blurred window.

Suddenly the Van stopped moving.

The light from outside shroud through into the back of the van.

"Come on, get out." Mr.willis said bluntly.

We shook as we slowly slipped out of the van, one by one.

Mr.willis took us inside a very large building.
Everything was white and bright.

"Wha-why did you bring us here, why are you doing this." I began to tear up.
I Felt Finn try to comfort me by holding the small of my back.

"Well, I saw you last night in the woods, you know...
I've been looking for people like you, for a very,very long time." he smiled at us.

I looked around behind me, wait where is sawyer? Now that I think about it ,He was not at the house this morning...How did I not notice this.

Mr.willis then walked us into a dark room with 3 beds.

"you will sleep here, And spend most your time in here from now on." said Willis.

Next he walked us into another room with tables.

"This is where you will eat,if you get that privilege."

After that he took us into one last room, it looked like a hospital room.
Their was a bed, IV, sink, Gloves , and needles.

He said nothing as we studied the room.

"Okay all done for today. you will now sleep."

He shoved us into the "sleeping room" and locked the door.

"Don't worry guys....we will get out of this." Jason said trying to make everyone feel, a little less scared.

All but one small, and not very bright light turned off.

"Might as well get some sleep while we can.." Jason said.

"Theirs only three beds..."

I said pointing at the beds.

"I'll sleep on the floor, you take the bed." Finn said.

"No Finn, hey I know we can share a bed, you can sleep on one end, I sleep on the other."

He nodded in agreement.

We each got in our beds.

Jason in one, kalel in another, and me and Finn in ours.

I tried not to think of what would happen tomorrow as I fell asleep...
