Sam

I woke up and stretched. Thank you, sun. Note the sarcasm in that statement.

I realized I couldn’t move and looked down to see an arm draped across my stomach and my back was pressed against a warm firm chest.

I squeezed my eyes shut and hoped to God that this was a dream and it wasn’t real.

But when I reopened my eyes and saw that the large strong arm was still there, I sighed in defeat.

Of course it’s not a dream. Why would it be knowing my luck ? I tried wiggling free, but the arm tightened and kept me in place. I couldn’t move at all and this was starting to get really annoying. I groaned heavily and tried to shove the arm off me one last time.

« You’re awake, » I heard a deep sexy voice come from behind me.

« And you’re a psycho, » I snipped at him.

He turned me around so I was facing him. « Watch how you talk to me. »

« Whatever you say, your highness, » I said in a very sassy tone. I could tell he was getting annoyed and I smirked at the thought that I was getting under his skin. You want to make my life hell ; I’ll make your life hell.

« Don’t test me princess, » Xavier warned in a low tone. On second thought, I probably shouldn’t provoke my kidnapper, I mean he could kill me right now if he wanted to. So I did the best thing and kept my mouth shut. But not without throwing a glare his way. « Now I have to go do some pa-I mean work, » he said nervously.

Hiding something are we Mr. Kidnapper ?

« So can you stay here and behave like a good girl ? » he asked as he sat up and rubbed his eyes.

I faked a smile. I so wanted to stab him.

But if I’m going to escape, I need him gone, and now.

« Yes sir, » I teased with a fake salute.

He narrowed his eyes and got up from the bed and headed to the bathroom.

As I was running through my plan in my head, he came out of the bathroom ten minutes later and he was just in jeans with his hair dripping wet.

And might I say, he looked damn good.

My eyes traveled to his arms, then his chest, then his abs. Oh my gosh those abs !

My hormones were all over the place.

My eyes continued down to his V line and then the rest was covered by his dark blue jeans.

« Are you done eye raping me yet ? » Xavier asked amused with a smirk plastered on his sexy ass face that I so desperately wanted to punch off.

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked him in the eyes which were a darker mossy green and held amusement in them.

I scoffed at him. « I was not. »

« Princess, let’s face it. You totally were. » He chuckled.

« Whatever gets you to sleep at night, » I said brushing past him and going into the bathroom and locking the door.

« Fine. I got to go. And don’t bother trying to get out of the house. I have Hunter and Tim downstairs, » he shouted so I could hear him.

I groaned but stayed quiet.

I heard the bedroom door open and close again so I decided to jump in the shower.

I was done in about twenty minutes. I hopped out and put on my clothes again.

I know it was gross, but I didn’t really have anything else to wear, and I wasn’t wearing Xavier’s clothes.

When I got out, I went to the room Kyrn was in last time and found her flicking through the channels.

« Hey, » she said looking at me and scooting over on the bed to make room for me.

« Hey, » I said back laying down next to her and staring at the ceiling.

« How are we going to get out of here ? Jay said something about don’t bother because Tim and Hunter are downstairs, » Kyrn said confused.

I sat up and rested on my elbows. « Yeah. Xavier told me the same thing. »

« So, what’s the plan Sam ? »

« Well when I was in the shower, I was thinking-« 

« EW gross ! I don’t need to know those things, » she said looking completely grossed out.

« Kyrn ! » I yelled hitting her in the head. « Oh my gosh no ! I was thinking of a plan you blithering idiot ! »

« Ohhh. That makes more sense now, » she said laughing while holding the back of her head.

« Ya think ? Anyway, if we can find a door with a lock on the outside, then we can somehow lure them in there and shut the door. And boom ! They are locked in the house and we are free. »

« Sounds good to me. But how do we do this ? » Kyrn asked as she shut the TV off.

« We need to find a door first, » I laughed slightly. « We go in there and hide, then when we hear them coming, we come out of our hiding spot and lock them in there. »

« Okay. Let’s go, » she said getting up from the bed.

We quietly made our way out of the room and slowly crept downstairs.

« Oh come on Bears ! You are facing the Cowboys. Kick their ass ! » I heard someone yell.

« Calm down Tim. Geez. »

So that was Tim and the one talking must be Hunter then.

« Sorry. But they need to win, » we heard Tim say.

« Bears suck, » I whispered to Kyrn.

« Let’s go find a room. » Kyrn laughed as she pulled me by my shirt. We made our way through the house trying to find the door with the lock.

« Hey, » Kyrn called to me.

I turned around and she was pointing to a door with a lock on the outside.

« It’s a basement. We can hide down there and wait until they come when we scream, » Kyrn suggested.

« Okay, » I said as I opened the door.

« Wow, » Kyrn and I gawked looking at all of the weapons as we made it to the last step.

« It is bad that I’m completely terrified right now ? » she asked me.

« Nope, » I said popping the ‘p’. « Because I am too. »

« Okay. I’m glad I’m not the only one, » Kyrn gulped.

We looked around for a few more minutes before she spoke up.
