I carefully get into the car behind Chris trying to make as little sound as possible.

"Em?" Asks Aiden his eyes widening

"Why do you look so surprised to see me?" I say rolling my eyes

He bites him lip and looks down onto the floor.

"No!" I scream falling to the floor

He stabs the little girl, he smiles as I break down

"No, no, no, no" I repeat the word again and again until it doesn't sound like a word with meaning

He laughs at my pain, he really has grown to hate me.

But why? What did I do to him to deserve this?

I notice that we haven't stopped at school, but in a park.

I sigh, I don't even need to question it

Felix is already there sitting at a picnic table.. they must've called him or something...I follow the boys to the table and feel worry start to grow in the pit of my stomach.

"Emma, tell me about what happened" Says Aiden as he and the boys get comfortable in front of me.

"What?" I ask, are they talking about my breakdown?

"What happened when you disappeared"

Oh, when I got kidnapped by mister.

"No" I mutter, did they really expect me to give in that easily?

"If you don't , I'll make you"

"You'll hurt me?" I say raising my eyebrows.

I actually want to tell them, but...

"I got kidnapped when I was seven" I start, they're eyes widen... wow no one guessed the obvious.

"I got kidnapped by a man who held a grudge against my father, he grew to hate me and do anything to see me hurt" I say everything as vague as possible hoping to finish this ASAP.

I could already see the anger in their eyes, not a good sign... but I continue.

"Slowly I started to stop caring about getting hurt and he moved on too what could scar me more than anything.."

"He killed, he would kill anyone who defends me-" I break down in a sob and start gasping slightly for breath I try and calm myself down and continue shakily.

"He killed a small girl...a small three year old girl- just because she gave me a loaf of bread" I cry harder and take a deep breath that made me start coughing, I was an emotional mess.

"I was eight when I came back home, mister got Killed by his own daughter and she kept me there until I escaped"

"I told them nothing about what happened ... I told them complete lies and they believed me- I had never lied before"

I close my eyes and put my pull my hair in frustration, I didn't tell them about the depressed part...they'll worry.

"Why where you in the play ground ? Why did you run?"

Oh sh*t.

"I was scared" I lie

"From us?" Asked Felix with a raised eyebrow

I shook my head and looked at the grass trying to think of a proper excuse.

"From everything" I say

Aiden bites his lip (must be a bad habit, but's it's so cute) and I could practically see his mind working.

"Define everything" Chris says
