Chapter 25

It's been a few weeks since I seen Rachel, I've been texting her and my cousin. I felt bad that I never thought about asking Rachel to tell my cousin to come over so I could see her but I never really saw her much before I got kidnapped anyway. I've texted her a few times, she also thinks I'm in Australia but she's a bit more suspicious as I phoned her telling her I was coming to hers and then never came and nobody heard of my for a few days. I told her a couple of lies to get myself out of it and she hasn't brought it back up.

I remember when I first got here and I was Kai's maid, now according to him I'm his girl and I'm staying in the same room as him. Just shows you how much a few weeks can change your life.

As much as I didn't like Kai I'm starting to get used to being around him, I think him giving me a phone helped me become more happy I know it sounds stupid but I am as I get to talk to Rachel and I even got Lily's number as well and told her I was sorry about missing her birthday. She forgave me and we don't talk that much but I would text her a few times.

Today I had to make dinner for me and Kai, I was tempted to turn around and say no but he said he really wants to try my cooking. I basically have no choice as he threatened to take my phone of me, I didn't want that to happen. It's only 2 o'clock and I'm currently sitting in the living room watching mean girls on the tv. Lucas and Oscar were with me earlier but left as soon as I put on mean girls, who knew all I had to do to get time to myself was watch a movie. They had work to do anyway and Kai said I can be by myself for a few hours until he gets back so they had permission to leave.

I'm starting to feel mixed emotions about Kai again and I'm starting to wonder if I should give him a chance or not. I hate that I'm thinking like this because I know what he's done isn't something I should forgave but it's not like he's treating me badly or using me as a slave. Gosh I'm having déjà vu, it wasn't too long ago when I was thinking about this and decided it was a stupid idea and here I am a few weeks later thinking about it again even when the first time I told myself it wasn't a good idea.

I feel like if I know something isn't a good idea I do it anyway and I know I shouldn't but I can't help it. What can I say I love taken chances and second guessing myself. I decided I wasn't going to think about this anymore right now and I'm going to watch the movie.

***

Once the movie was over I went and got started on dinner, I was going to make homemade lentil soup, with homemade ice cream for dessert. I know it doesn't sound like much but I fancy soup right now and lentil is the only one I can make homemade so I don't care if Kai likes it or not. He said he wanted to try my cooking and he didn't tell me what to make.

10 minuets later

"Something smells nice" Kai states walking into the kitchen and sitting down at the table

"I'm making lentil soup" I say without turning around to face him, I don't care if it annoys him or not

"Nice, it's not my favourite however I do like it" He says as if I actually care whether it's his favourite soup or not

"Anything I can help you with?" I was surprised when he offered to help me but I didn't want or need his help so I politely declined his offer

"No thank you I can do it myself" okay I wasn't sure if that was polite but it doesn't matter when is he ever polite to me?

"Alright" He says before sitting down

Once the soup is ready I serve it with some bread, I had put the ice cream in the freezer for later.

"This is really good, I'll need to make you cook more often"

"I'm glad you like it but I'm not your personal chef Kai"I maybe shouldn't have said that last part but aw well to late now

"I know your not but I like your cooking"

"You've only tasted one thing I've made"

"And I can already tell your great at cooking more things and I can't wait to try them"

"So how was your day so far?" He asked

"Fine"

"Aren't you going to ask me how mine was?"

I sigh "how was your day?" I ask not really wanting to know but not wanting to argue with him

"Okay what's wrong?" He says putting down his spoon and looking at me

"Nothing?" I say but it sounds more like a question

"Ellie what's wrong with you?"

"There's nothing wrong with me Kai I'm just trying to eat in peace but you keep talking and ruining it"

After that we just sat there and eat in a really awkward silence, once I was finished I put my bowl in the sink and went to walk out of the kitchen until Kai spoke up

"Where are you going?"

"Uh the living room"

"No come and sit with me"

"Why?"

"Cause I want you to" was his answer, which wasn't really an answer at all

"No I don't want to" okay some part of me did but I wasn't going to let him know that, I needed to think about this before I do something I might regret

"Ellie" he warns

"Ughh fine" I walk over and sit beside him

"Wow, you didn't argue to much there"

"Why are you complaining? Do you want me to fight you more?" I ask confused

"I wasn't complaining I'm just shocked" he says, I don't say anything back and we just sit there in silence for a while until he finishes his soup. I don't know why it took him so long to eat it, it was only a bowl of soup. He stands up with his empty bowl in his hand and sets it in the sink and then walks over to me and takes my hand, he starts walking somewhere

"Where are we going?"

"Living room, you wanna watch a movie or something?"

"Sure"

We sit down and he switches in the tv, "What you wanna watch?" He asks

"I don't mind" I honestly didn't care

"Okay" He says before putting on a movie I don't think I've ever watched before, to be honest I wasn't even watching it so I don't even know what happened. I was to busy thinking about all these stupid feelings towards him

I don't know what to do, I'm going to talk to Lucas about it, he's the only one I can really talk to anyway, it's not like I can text Rachel because she's isn't supposed to know about Kai and I don't wanna risk it. Sometime during the movie Kai's phone goes off

"I have to take this, I'll be back soon" he says before standing up and walking away

Once he's gone I stand up and go look for Lucas, I found him in the game room. It was the first place I checked

"Hey what's up?" He asks

"Nothing I was just looking for you, I know you so well this was the first place I checked" I laugh

"Really I would have checked the kitchen first" Mark, who I learnt was Lucas's best friend said. Lucas picked up one of the cushions and threw it at him causing him to drop the game remote and Lucas to win whatever they were playing on the scree

"Ha I won!" Lucas exclaims

"You cheated, you made me drop the remote" Mark says throwing the cushion back at Lucas

"Whatever" He says and turns to me "so what's up?"

"Can I talk to you?" I ask

"Sure, is everything okay?"

"Yeah I just want to talk" I say

"Okay" He says standing up "I'll see you later" he says to Mark and then walks over to e and we both walk out of the game room and towards the living room

"So what do you wanna talk about?"

"I need help" I say, he scrunches his eyebrows together in confusion

"Ookayy, what with?"

"Kai" I say, he looks even more confused

"What about Kai?" He asks

"I'm so confused right now, I don't know how to feel about him, I'm staring to feel feelings towards him and I shouldn't because he kidnapped me for crying out loud, I should ate him and I do but at the same time I don't and I need help because I don't know what to do!"

"Okay Ellie calm down, take a breath"

"I don't know what to do Lucas, I don't know what I should feel, I mean I know I shouldn't feel towards him but..."

"Ellie you need to calm down" he says cutting me off  "take deep breaths"

I take deep breaths and start to calm down

"Good, now what exactly are you thinking about him?"

"I don't know, I was thinking about giving him a chance but then I keep telling myself that is is a bad idea because I shouldn't have feelings towards him" I say

"Okay look here's what I think, I think you should give him a chance"

"Why?"

"Because I know him and I can tell he actually likes you because if he didn't you'd be dead"

"That doesn't help, that just reminds me of how bad he is and how I shouldn't like him"

"Well I'm not going to lie to you Ellie, and I know he's dangerous but so am I, are you going to not be friends with me?" He asks

"No"

"There you go, you give me a chance at being your friend, give him one to, there's no difference"

"your right, thank you" I say giving him a hug

"Your welcome" he says and hugs me back

"But wait what do I even say to him?" I ask "I can't just turn around and say that I am going to give him a chance that will be so weird" I say and start to panic again

"Clam down Ellie, your overthinking it, just don't think about it too much" he says

"If you want I'll tell Kai " he says

"Tell me what?" I turn around to face Kai, he grabs me and pulls me into him for a hug, I just stand there when he wraps his arms around me and then he let's go keeping me close to him, I turn around and look at Lucas pleading him with my eyes not to say anything

"Uh Nothing" He says before tuning around and trying to walk away

"Lucas" Kai warns, "what are you not telling me?"

"Hey can we go finish the movie? It was really good and we didn't get to finish it" I say trying to change the subject

"You weren't even watching it, I seen you, you were lost in your thoughts and weren't paying attention. Now what are you guys hiding from me?" He asks again, I look at Lucas and shake my head slowly hoping Kai wouldn't notice but he did

"Did you try to escape again?" He asks, his tone suddenly turning angry and his grip on my tightening

"No" I say

"I'm getting very angry now, what are yous not telling me?" He nearly shouts

"Come one Ellie you may as well get it over with now" Lucas says "just let me tell him" he continues and then smirks when I reply with a small okay, "Kai, Ellie fancy's you" He says, my mouth falls open and my eyes nearly come off of their sockets, I wasn't expecting him to say it like that! Kai's grip on me loosens

"Lucas!" I shout

"What? There's no point in sugarcoating it Ellie, if we were going to tell him may as well get straight to the point"

Kai turns me to face him, "is it true?" He asks, I look down blushing I didn't know what to say. Kai brings my face back up to look at him

"Well?" He asks, he's smirking as he knows it's somewhat true but he just wants to hear me say it

"I don't know how I feel" I tell him honestly

"She says she was going to give you a chance" Lucas states and I send him a glare "shut up Lucas!" I say and he just laughs and then walks away. Kai looks at me again and then brings his lips to meet mine.

I don't pull away and we end up kissing, I'm probably going to regret this later but right now I didn't care.

End of chapter 25
