  &quot;Hey, stop staring at me like that.&quot; The boy squirmed in his seat. Melanie was gaping at him openly and he felt awkward about it. He had always been conscious of his too cute face which people always 'awwed'.
  &quot;Yeah, you're cute. You're fucking cute.&quot; He rolled his eyes he was almost used to that reaction but at least she didn't 'aww', that irritated him more than anything.
  &quot;How old are you?&quot; Melanie asked then covered her mouth, she wasn't sure if it was appropriate to ask a boy his age, especially one that was a kidnapper.

  &quot;Oh,I wasn't aware I was saying it.&quot; She shrugged then put the biscuit in her mouth to distract her from the awkward conversation. They were b

  &quot;You know him?&quot; Jordan asked, he placed his hand on the back of her neck and pointed the gun to her temple. Melanie swallowed, nodding slightly.

  She wasn't sure why they kidnapped so but guessed it was because of money. To bribe her father. Something of the kind had happened when she was in middle school. The kidnappers had killed the driver then disguised as the driver to pick her at school then she was gagged and drugged. They demanded a huge sum of money which her father refused to pay but luckily for her her mother was alive then and she had been the one to pay but now she wasn't sure she'd get out alive considering they were doing a huge favour to her father by kidnapping her.
