Chapter 24

Ellie's P.O.V

The week dragged in and nothing really happened, we were back at Kai's mansion and I was talking to Lucas again, he apologised when I told him that what he said to be about being good annoyed me and he said he was sorry he just didn't want me to do something Kai wouldn't like and then getting hurt for it.

I didn't see Kai that much other than at night when he would come to be, even though I didn't want to sleep in the same bed as him i knew I didn't really have a choice and I wasn't going to risk making him angry by refusing incase he took my phone of me and told me I couldn't go and see Rachel.

It was finally the day where I would be seeing Rachel again, I couldn't wait and I am currently in the shower getting ready to see her,it's going to be hard saying goodbye to her at the end of today but I wasn't going to let that ruin my mood. It was 6am but I couldn't sleep, I was to excited so I decided to get up and get a shower so I could leave as soon as possible and see Rachel. It was Wednesday and I 'flew in' yesterday and texted Rachel last night that I was in a hotel and couldn't wait to see her tomorrow to keep up the act.

Once I was done in the shower I got out and dried myself off and got dressed, Kai was still asleep which was weird he was normally up way before me but I didn't say or do anything and just went downstairs to get something to eat. I decided I was going to have scrambled eggs, beans and toast and as I was in the middle of eating it Kai came into the kitchen and once he saw me eating he looked a bit annoyed.

"Your supposed to wait for me before you have breakfast, we are ament to eat together" He said pulling me out of my chair and then sitting down in my place and pulling me onto his lap.

"Sorry, I was hungry and you looked so peaceful I didn't want to wake you" I was telling the truth I was hungry and I didn't want to wake him up, but not because he looked too peaceful just because I wanted to be alone and away from him.

"It's okay princess, but I know how you can make it up to me" He said

"How's that?" I asked nervously

"Kiss me" eww no, he seemed to have forgotten that I don't like him

"No"

"Why not" he questioned

"Uhh I just ate eggs" That wasn't the only reason, I didn't wanna kiss him at all but I wasn't going to anger him by saying that

"So?" He smirked at me

"My breath smell"

"I don't care"

"No, but I do" I said

"Fine" He huffed and stood up to make himself something to eat

After breakfast Lucas came in and out the mic on me so that Kai can hear what me and Rachel are taking about.

"Remember the rules" Kai said as we were getting into the car

"I know, I won't say anything about you or the Mafia" I assured him, then texted Rachel telling her I was on my way.

Once the car pulled up to my old apartment complex I shot out of the car and ran up and knocked on the door, Rachel opened the door and I dived onto her knocking us onto the floor. We lay there a while hugging each other tightly.

"I missed you so much Rachel" I said, finally standing up and offering her a hand, once she stood up she gave me another hug

"Me to, I can't believe you just got up and left like that though, it's not like you and I was so worried" she said, I needed to think of something to reply quick

"I'm sorry, I just couldn't bring myself to tell you" I whispered, I hated lying to her but it was for her own safety

"Well I'm still annoyed at you but right now that doesn't matter, how is Australia? And how is staying with your mum and dad again?" She asked

"It's beautiful and the weather is so hot" I replied

"And your parents?" She asked walking us over to the living room, I smiled I really missed this place

"It's uh weird, but they seem happy to have me back, even thought they left me not the other way around" I say

"Well as long as your happy" Yeah, happy is definitely what I am

"Yeah, anyway enough about me how have you been?" I asked trying to get the attention off me

"I've been fine, I miss having you here though it's so quiet"

"I miss staying here to, if I'm honest I hate staying with them" I say honestly

"Why did you move back?"

"They said that they missed me and they wanted another chance, I told them I couldn't move away but they kept begging me for weeks" I lied

"If you really don't like it you should move back, you have to focus on things that make you happy El, your too busy trying to make everyone else happy you need to start thinking about yourself" she said, she always used to tell me that but now it's not so easy

"I know, I'll be fine though don't worry"

We spent most of the day just sitting in the living room talking, I didn't really wanna go anywhere else as then Kai would have people following us whereas if we just stay here then nobody will be following us. They can still hear us though and I couldn't do anything about it

"Do you wanna go to Starbucks?" Rachel asked me

"Sure" I couldn't say no to Starbucks, I love it and Rachel knows I would never say no to a Starbucks

Once we arrived at Starbucks we ordered our favourites, we both got caramel frappuccinos with a cream base, once we got our orders we went and took a seat and continued to talk about everything and anything.

"So any boy drama? Have you met anyone that is nice looking and boyfriend material?" Rachel asked

"No, I don't have a boyfriend and I haven't met anyone I would want to fit that role yet" I answered and this was one of the things I didn't have to lie to her about and could be completely honest as I don't have a boyfriend

"What about you are you still with Josh?"

"No" she whispered looking down

"What? Why what happened?" I asked worried, I knew she loved him and I wasn't expecting her to say no

"I caught him cheating on me" What?! Oh I was so annoyed

"He cheated on you?" I whisper shouted not want anyone to hear our conversation

"I caught him kissing some girl at the club a few weeks ago and then they disappeared somewhere, I was so heartbroken" she said and I felt so bad for her

"I'm so sorry Rachel, I feel awful that I wasn't there for you, I'm such a bad friend" I said "don't worry you don't need that jerk, it's his loss at the end of the day he missed out on you" I continued and then I remembered that I had a mic on and that Kai was listening into my conversation, I felt bad for Rachel knowing that he knows that someone cheated on her, it was her personal business and now other people know about it

"Your not a bad friend El" she said

"I feel like one, but let's not talk about that now come on let's go cheer you up" I said and then we went shopping, Kai gave me money so that it didn't seem weird that I came without any money do we went shopping and after 3 hours we went back to the apartment with dead arms from carrying so many bags

It was no 6 o'clock and we decided to order Chinese for dinner and as we were eating it we watched kissing booth, I loved that movie. Once it was over we decided to re watch vampire diaries and we got ice cream and lay on the sofa watching the ridiculously hot Damon kill people and protect Elena.

At 8 o'clock I got a text from Kai saying that it was time to leave but I really didn't wanna go.

'Please let me stay a bit longer' I texted him

'No, I'm waiting outside tell her you need to leave now' he replied

'I don't wanna leave'

'Don't make me come in there Ellie, now move' he texted me back, I knew there was no point in arguing with him because it wouldn't turn out well

'Fine'

"Hey Rachel, I'm really sorry and I really don't wanna leave but I need to go now my flight is really early tomorrow morning" I said sadly

"Oh, can't you just stay here and leave from here tomorrow morning instead of the hotel?" She asked, shoot what do I say?

"I can't I'm sorry, I would love to stay longer but my suitcase is back at the hotel" I say and then stand up, I gave her a big hug

"I'll miss you so much Ellie" Rachel said starting to cry

"Please don't cry, you'll make me cry" I say hugging her tighter

"When will I see you again?" She asked, I didn't know when or if Kai would let me see her

"I don't know hopefully not to few away though, I love you so much and I promise I'll text you a lot more" I said and we made our way to the door

"I love you to, text me when you get back to the hotel" she said

"I will" and with that I have her another hug and then started to go downstairs towards Kai, there were tears in my eyes and I couldn't stop them from falling, I got into the car and Kai turned around to me

"Don't cry, I don't like seeing you upset" he said

Well then you shouldn't have kidnapped me, I wanted to say but decided against it as I wanted to stay in his good books for a while so instead I just wiped my eyes and turned around to look out the window.

Once we got back to his mansion I texted Rachel letting her know that I was okay and that I was going to go to bed, I went upstairs and got into the shower and then crawled into bed and cried. It was so hard saying goodbye to Rachel. After a while Lucas came into the room and sat beside me.

"Hey, are you alright?" He asked

"I'll be fine, just please go away I want to be alone"

"Come on Ellie nobody died, you don't need to cry" Kai said walking into the room

I was so annoyed at what he said, Sure it was true nobody died but I was upset about leaving Rachel to come back to this stupid ugly mansion. Okay it wasn't ugly but I was just upset, I sent Kai the dirties look and then turned back to Lucas

"Don't look at me like that ever again" Kai said angrily and then turned to Lucas "get out" he snapped

"Sure" Lucas said and walked away, before he walked out of the room he turned around again "don't kill each other" he said and then left and shut the door

Kai got into bed and then grabbed me into his chest and as much as I didn't wanna fall asleep in his arms I couldn't help if as I was so tired.
