Hostage

Carl’s POV

“Who does this guy think he is?” I yelled at William who stared at me.
“Should we do something.. I mean like… hurt him.. as a sign… ?” William asked and I liked the thought, but that would be too easy… no I had to think about something better… but what.
I rubbed a hand over my nose, thank god it wasn’t broken or if only slightly, which hurt like a bitch but I wouldn’t go to anyone to correct it anyway.
“No, I will think of something better.” I told him. “Now let us finish the instructions and let us bring it to them…”
“Fine, so what should we write?” William sat down in front of the laptop.
“Write :

We have something you want and in exchange for that we want 5.000.000 Dollars in cash.
The money should be in black travel bags placed at the Best Western Hotel in HB.
Behind the main building on the far side is a concrete wall near the trash cans.
Place the bags next Monday at 9 pm behind them, make sure no one sees you and follows you.
No police,
No tricks
Or else…”

I finished and thought that sounded pretty good.
“Forgot anything?” I looked at William and he seemed to think for a moment.
“Him to sign…”
“Yes, right. Print it and I will get in there to let him sign it.”

Alicia’s POV

I knew Matt lost his temper because of me, which was on one side even if it was stupid flattering but on the other hand I knew that he will have to pay for this.
This guy was out of his mind and I knew that he was only waiting for a chance to repay Matt for his outburst.
I looked over at Matt and he sighed loudly, he looked like he was at the end of his patience.
“Fuck!” Matt yelled at the wall.
I winced at his loud voice and he looked apologizing at me.
“I can’t believe that he was in my home… that he looked into my private things, that he heard the messages on my phone… that he saw Caroline, what if he… what if…” I had tears in my eyes, I wanted to be strong, really but I just couldn’t, not when he involved also my friends into this mess.
“Shit, really we have to figure something out… We need to get out of here as soon as possible!” Matt looked around the room.
“After they give us the evening meal and harass us the last time, we will stay up and need to listen when they are fully asleep, maybe we can come up with a plan then… maybe not all of them will be here…” I could see that Matt was trying to find a solution for us but I think this was useless, we wouldn’t get out of here until they let us…

Another thought wouldn’t leave my mind, he said my doctor called… not some nurse, my doctor and he wanted to talk to me personally about the results…
That doesn’t seem like everything was fine…

I led my hands wander to my stomach, I felt ill… what if… this time they couldn’t remove it, what if this time the uterus cancer was so strong that they had to remove my uterus, that this would mean I would never have children of my own someday…
I remembered the moment they told me I had cancer, how they explained everything to me… what that would mean for me and my body…
I had zoomed out of it, couldn’t listen to all the explanations.
Caroline was with me, she had shook my shoulder and I looked at her, I knew she was talking to me, saw the tears in her eyes but couldn’t hear her… my eyes were full of tears as well… slipping down my cheeks.
I know exactly what I had been thinking - Was this it? Was this how it would end?
Long hospital stays and slowly dying…
Cancer meant death, right?
I escaped the grim reaper once, when they could remove the cancer…. But would that mean I would have so much luck the second time?!
“Ssshhhh.. I promise we will do this together, we will be strong. Don’t cry, babe. I got you.” Matt’s strong arms enveloped me into his big body and his body heat moved into my bones, made me feel better immediately.
I knew he was talking about the abduction but maybe for a shot moment I relinquished in the feel that he was talking about my illness as well, that he would be strong for me too.
That I could count on him.
I hadn’t even noticed that I had began to cry…

William’s POV

“Alright, let him sign this and then Sean and I will get the message over to the other guys, so they got this in the morning as a surprise.” I smiled.
“Good.” Carl took the printed page and walked together with me into the room.
We saw Alicia sobbing into Matt’s shoulder.
Ahhh heartbreaking, wasn’t it?!
“Move!” Carl yelled at Alicia, and she flinched away when he came nearer.
“How is the nose?” Matt asked and I saw a smile of satisfaction on his face when he looked at Carl.
“Oh, thanks for the concern. I am fine.” Carl replied sarcastically.
“Here darling, will you, write a short note for your friend Caroline, nothing suspicious, just that she should better hurry…” Carl said and sat down next to Alicia.
She looked at him shocked, he held the pen out to her and she held the paper to her thigh and began to write.
I looked at Carl, he moved his hands to Alicia’s shoulder, brushed her hair away, he licked his lips, I knew what he was thinking… he wanted her… he was talking about her since the first night.
I could convince him that she was just part of the game, but the more days passed the more he was talking about separating them and if he would do that I couldn’t control him anymore.
When Carl moved his hand down her throat she began to move away from him.
“Such a soft skin…” I heard him murmur.
Alicia quickly finished and handed the paper to Matt, he looked at Car and then moved his hand around Alicia’s shoulder and she gladly moved into his side.
That brought Carl back from his trance, “Fine, so… you are done.. now you write a small sentence. Then we get this letter to your friends.”
Matt also began to write and when he was done, he handed the paper and pen back to me.
Carl and I walked to the door, he read the sentence and seemed okay with it.
“Alright, you and Sean bring that to Brian’s house, don’t let them see you just in a white envelope without anything on it, just slip it underneath the door and move away.” Carl nodded at me and I grabbed Sean by the collar who was already waiting.
“Come on, Sean. Here, take the letter, do you have an envelope, put it inside and close it.” I gave Sean the letter he pushed the paper inside and closed it.
