Kidnapped - 2

Again I woke up to the gentile shaking of chair guy. "Hey there sleeping beauty. It's time for you to get up, do you think you can do that?" He said nicely. I just looked at him for a moment. I swung my legs over the side of the bed and got up without any trouble this time. Chair guy helped me to the bathroom that matched the bedroom. There was a towel next to the shower, with everything a girl could possibly need in front of the mirror. Make up, a straightener, a small curling iron, face wash, anything and everything. Next to the towel was a change of clothes. They looked pretty nice. He turned on the shower and showed me how it worked.

After he stepped out I looked at myself in the mirror. I looked ghostly white, which was unusual for me. I am 5'7 with strawberry blonde hair and bright blue eyes. My hair has natural highlights of every natural color in them, yes that includes black. I got into the nice hot shower, it felt wonderful on my tight muscles. After I took a 10 minute shower I blow dried my hair and curled it with the curling iron. I put on a little foundation, blush, and mascara. The cloths were really cute actually. There was just a simple white v-neck t-shirt with some black shorts and converse. After I went back out to the room the chair guy stood and said, "Wow, you look great." He smiled, I couldn't help it, his smile was contagious.

"Sorry honey but we're on a tight schedule and we need to go." With that he motioned to the door. I went out the door with him following me, I was going slowly so I could look at the house I was in. It was beautiful and homey, yet not too big or small. It looked just right; I felt enchanted as I walked down the spiraling staircase. I went into another room and found a baby grand, black piano. I just stared at it with big eyes.

"You can play it if you want to" he said smiling, with humor in his eyes. I walked over to it pulling out the bench, and placing my fingers over the keys. I started to play Moonlight Sonata by Beethoven and mixed it with a composition of my own. I let my feelings flow through my fingers playing a piece that was totally improvised. When I was done I stood up and went to look at the rest of the house. Before I could leave the chair guy stopped me and asked, "Did you just make all of that up?" I only nodded. My first interaction with him since I first woke up here.
"I'm sorry to cut the tour short but we need to go okay?" said chair guy, I just nodded again. He walked me into what I was guessing was the main living room because there were 3 other guys there. The oldest seemed only around 22 or 21 with two other guys that looked to be around chair guy's age or a little older. They were all talking with the T.V on mute. When the chair guy and I walked into the room, all the guys started to stare at me. I became self-conscious and blushed a little, I don't really like having attention on me all the time.
"Hey are you guys ready to go?" asked chair guy.

"Yeah, why don't you take her to the car we'll meet you there in a minute, we just need to talk about one more thing." said the oldest guy. Chair guy nodded his head and stood up offering his hand to help me. I took it and got up, I noticed that his hand was surprisingly soft. 'A.J! What are you thinking?! These guys kidnapped you! Don't think about his hands!' I thought to myself. Chair guy walked me out to the garage where the same van they kidnapped me in was waiting. He opened the door like a gentleman and told me where to sit.

"I just noticed that I never told you my name," he paused then continued after a moment, "I'm Adam. And you are?" I decided not to answer him, he already called me A.J so he obviously knows my name, I think he just wants to make me talk. I just looked at him without so much as a smile on my face.
"Alright I know your name is A.J but what does it stand for?" he asked. I didn't want to encourage us talking so I still decided to not answer him, I just looked away. He sighed, "Look I'm sorry we kidnapped you, but will you at least talk to me? You're going to get extremely bored if you never talk to anyone." said Adam. I considered this for a moment, he was right. I needed to talk to someone or else I would go crazy!

"It stands for Aurora Jane." I said finally looking at him. He smiled a huge smile that lit up the whole universe. He came in the car and sat next to me putting his arm around my shoulders, I cringed away from him. When I was a little girl my father used to hit me, I still have never been one for affection, especially since no one loved me anyway. I had a few friends at school, but none that every really cared enough to talk to me outside class. Usually on the way home from school or when I just needed a moment to myself, I would climb this tree in a park near my house and watch the world go on its merry way. Even when my world was crashing down, that was where I could always go and hide. I also wrote on anything I could find, and then bury it in the earth. It's like telling your secret to the universe without having anyone ever know them. What I was now just starting wonder (better late than never) what I was to be used for.
