Love Behind Lies by Anna L Page B

asked.
“You know what I want from you,” Sam said to me, smiling. I glared at him.
“Whatever, Sam. Leave us alone. You may never get what you want after this, anyway.” I paused. “Why did you need to talk to Margaret,” I asked.
“You know that too! Why do you have to keep asking us questions that you already know the answers to,” Loren asked, laughing.
“You think that Margaret is hot and that’s why you stalk her,” I snapped. I looked at Margaret who didn’t look shocked.
“Yeah pretty much. Do you have a problem with that--Cat,” Sam asked.
“Yeah I have a problem with that! Why can’t you just leave us alone? And don’t call me Cat,” I yelled, glaring at Sam. He made me so mad.
“Maybe we should take her somewhere before someone hears her,” Nate whispered to Loren.
“Yeah and quick,” Loren replied. Loren grabbed Margaret who didn’t even look surprised. I tried to help her, but Sam caught on to what Loren was doing. Sam grabbed me from behind.
“What are you doing with us? Where are you-,” I yelled. I couldn’t even finish my sentence because Sam’s hand covered my mouth.
“I suggest that you stay quiet from this point forward. We don’t want people to know what we are doing,” Sam whispered into my ear. I struggled against his hold on me but he didn’t let go. Where was everyone? Why weren’t there any students in the hallway to witness this? I have never seen the hallways so empty.
I gave up on freeing myself. I knew that even if I did get free Sam would just grab me again.
“I like the feeling of you struggling against me,” Sam said. I pushed my elbow back as hard as I could and hit him in the gut. He dropped to the ground and I was free. Loren turned around with Margaret, and Nate and Nick came running towards me. I tried to run, but Nate grabbed my arm and pulled me towards him. Nate was much stronger than Sam so I didn’t struggle at all.
“Nice try Catherine,” Nate said to me as he started walking again. Where were we going? The only places down this hallway were the locker rooms and we couldn’t go in the guy’s locker room and the guys couldn’t go in the girl’s locker room.
“Where are we going,” I asked.
“A special room that no one knows about except us,” Loren said.
“Great,” I mumbled. Sam finally caught up to us again and was only a few steps behind Nate and me. He must have been really angry at me because he was breathing really hard.
Loren finally stopped walking and let go of Margaret. Margaret didn’t even move. She must have been terrified. Nothing like this has ever happened to her before.
“Catherine. I think that you should learn from your sister. She is a very good listener,” Loren said to me. I just glared back at him. Loren took out a key and unlocked a door and I have never seen before. Loren opened the door and led us all through it. I was nervous and Nate still had a strong grip on me as we walked through the door.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    Chapter 16
    When we got in the room I could see that there were two chairs and one table. The walls were bare and the main part of the room was a square. In the back left hand corner there was an opening leading to another room. There was only a desk in that room, that I could see from where I was standing.
Nate brought me over to one chair and sat me down. Then he got some rope and tied my arm around the back of the chair. I couldn’t move at all. I struggled, but that only made my wrists hurt more. Margaret was tied to the chair across from me, and unlike me she didn’t struggle at all. How can she be so calm?
“Ok. Well now that this is all settled, we are all going to class. Well, except for you two. We will come and get you after school is over. Don’t try to get out because the rope will never be able to untie. It has wire through the middle,” Loren said, sounding strong.
I didn’t reply to him as he walked out the door followed by the others. Sam
