Mal's Pov:
What irritates me the most is right now is that I could take her and make her mine at this very moment, but if I do I know she'll rat me out to the old man tomorrow morning as soon as she gets the chance...She has no idea what she does to me...It's not love, I know because I am no fool...I don't care what Mike says...What I feel is desire and a need to have this girl...She is my pawn...my chance at getting what I want most and that's revenge...
It's been about an hour since we both crashed into my bed, by now I could tell she was sleeping, I had shifted over onto my back again as I stole a glance at her sleeping form in the corner of my eye. She still had the pillow wedged in between us like it was some sort of protection from me with her back pressed against the wall.
What she fails to realize is if I had indeed really wanted her that bad, I would have yanked that pillow away long ago and had my way with her regardless...I really want to do things to her just to make her cry, but at the same time, I wanted other things from her too...Things I'm not sure what just yet...But the one thing that I was sure about was that I liked pretty things...Pretty things that were fragile and easily manipulated...But for some reason or another, I just wasn't in the mood for it...Something about that punk on Steve's floor putting his hands on her and in front me at that really boils my blood...Nobody touches what's mine...Nobody...
I considered getting up and having a smoke since my nerves were on edge and sleep was evading me once again, but I knew I had to make myself go to sleep tonight, I had things to do in the morning, and I knew if I didn't get any sleep I'd be in a very foul mood. So I continued to lay there as I waiting on the Sandman to hit me with his damn bag of sleeping sand, by then I could hear a small sound coming from the corner of the bed where Roxanne was sleeping, I looked over at her but she hadn't moved an inch since our last conversation. Watching her a little bit longer, I noticed she was gripping her "security pillow" tighter, I carefully crept over closer when I heard her sniffling when I was close enough to see in the dim light from the emergency lights from the hallway, I saw tears running down her face. I thought for a moment she was awake, so I said her name out loud quietly, but she didn't respond, so I snapped my fingers and still nothing. She was out cold and so she was crying in her sleep, I started to wonder if she had always cried in her sleep, not that I care, but I did find it curious as I touched one of her wet cheeks wondering what delicious little nightmare was plaguing her at this very moment.
Roxanne's Pov:
The last thing I remember before passing out was the fact that Mal said he wasn't going to touch me...
He said he didn't want to...
I was relieved but at the same time I still felt wary around him, I wasn't really sure what to expect from him anymore, he was so unpredictable and violent. It was around that time as I continued to stare at his back but not really noticing it because my thoughts were just drifting off into space and soon I couldn't remember what I was thinking about anymore as I laid there.
Suddenly I was in a giant church and the ceiling in it as I looked up just kept going like it never ended, as I looked all around me in this dim and dark candle-lit holy place I could see corpse-like people all around me sitting in the pews. They all turned towards me when the organs began to play making the air swell up with it loud eerie music, I realized in horror that was my cue to go. I nearly tripped on myself, looking down I realized why, I was in a big white heavy wedding dress like something out of a fairytale, something I'd never catch myself dead in.
But somehow I knew I had to keep walking, so I did with this overwhelming feeling of dread and anxiety gnawing at me, slowly unnerving me. I could feel something really bad waiting for me at the altar, and I wanted nothing more than to turn back and run for it, but for some reason, I couldn't. Something was pulling me forward and I couldn't stop.
Without warning, I was all of a sudden there, where I least wanted to be staring at the thing...the person that scares me the most. I could see him leering down at me with his dark and lewd smile as he takes his hands into mine as he pulls closer to him with his dark eyes boring into my wide and frightened ones.
Mal laughs evilly as he tilts his head and with a low silkily but dark voice, "I told you that you would be mine. There's no escaping me because I'm never going to let you go. We'll be together until death do us part.."
Tears filled my eyes as I tried to back away and twist my hands free from his, but he wasn't letting up, not until he smiled darkly and pulled out an evil-looking small blade and jumped on the priest, stabbing him repeatedly until his body stopped twitching on the ground. No one tried to stop him...No one...He slowly emerged as his tuxedo was covered in blood as it dripped from his hands and from the blade as I covered my face with my hands in horror as I felt my stomach plummeting into a bottomless pit. He turned back to me with this evil smile once as he strolled towards me in what felt like slow motion as he licked the blood from his knife as his eyes never left mine, I began backing away in fear of what he'd do next. Before I knew it, I had backed into an organ and as soon as I turned around he was only a few feet away this time, I shriek because there was no way I could get away fast enough in this gown. I panicked as I closed my eyes hoping against hope that I would soon wake up from this horrible nightmare, but as soon as I opened my eyes again there he was hovering over me with his dead weight crushing down on me, his blade was gone but the blood was still there.
I whimpered as tears continue to pour down my cheeks as I shakily look up at him with all my nerves shot and his leering grin burning into mine, he reached out one of his bloody hands and cupped my face and deviously whispered in my ear, "Be mine or be dead, which is it?"
I woke with a start as I laid there in a cold sweat, I was trembling all over still clinging to my pillow as I fearfully but hesitantly peer over at Mal, he was sleeping on his back or at least he seemed like he was out. I laid there in paralyzed fear unable to move my body for the next couple of minutes in terror waiting for him to pounce on me or maybe stab me like he did to the priest in my nightmare, but nothing happened, nothing happened at all. I wasn't sure if I should feel relieved or scared not knowing whether or not he was about to attack or not, but he never did. Slowly but surely my breathing started to slow and I started to feel calmer as the minutes ticked by, I began to realize I wasn't going to be able to go back to sleep, so I started trying to think ways to relax and try to resume getting some sleep. Counting sheep didn't work, reciting names and places that were boring didn't work, laying there with my eyes closed didn't work, finally, I thought what if I did some late night reading?...
That was it, I just needed to read for a little bit so I could take my mind off of the terrible dream I just had and all the terrible things Mal has put me through the last couple of hours, but the problem was getting to the infirmary to get my books. The cell door was locked and Mal had the keys, and last time I tried taking his keys it didn't work out so well, but what if I just took one of my knives back and crawl through the vent this time. I know he's too big to fit in there so surely it had to work, plus the cell door creaks when you open it but going through the vent should prove to be much more quieter. All I got to do is remove the remaining screws I left in there since last I used it I didn't put them all back properly due to the idea that I toyed with that I'd probably be going out again.
Carefully I crawled to the end of the bed where our feet were, I climbed out as I slowly but silently walked around Mal's side of the bed, and taking a deep breath as I felt my heart pounding in my chest like last time, I checked his pockets for one of my knives while the whole time I kept expecting him to wake up and reach out and grab me, demanding what I was doing and why I was out of bed, but he didn't budge thankfully, and I successfully was able to retrieve one of my knives or thought it was one of mine. He could be carrying one himself, but then why would he want mine unless he didn't want me protecting myself or something, I don't know... I sigh, I really can't figure him out for the life of me, I just don't understand what makes him tick.
With those thoughts lingering on my mind, I managed to quietly climb onto my former top bunk bed and start removing the remaining screws from the vent, when that was done I gingerly and silently climbed inside the vent and crawled out of Mal's cell room. I didn't bother putting my shoes on because I knew they make too much noise and they would alert Mal of my attempting escape plan to the infirmary. So far so good, I didn't hear Mal call me or any sudden movements from below as I paused for a moment to listen for anything out of the ordinary, so I continued on at a slow and safe pace until I was far enough where I could quicken the rate I was going at.
Mal's Pov:
I had only just begun to fall asleep when I felt movement in the bed, and sure enough, Roxanne was getting up and moving around as I watched her crawl out of bed and quietly creep over to where I was sleeping. I wasn't sure what she was up...Let me rephrase that, I knew what she was doing, but why and where were my questions...I thought to myself as continued to lay there like I was still asleep, and then I felt her hands on my pockets, it was then I had to resist the urge to grab her and punish her for trying to escape me again, but I didn't. I was actually curious as to know where she wanted to go this late at night, so I let her continue feeling my pockets until she found what she wanted. She took back one of her knives and started climbing the other bunk bed and then it slowly dawned onto me, she was going to use the vent this time to get out, I smirked as I watched her.
She never fails to amuse me...But now I have to figure out where she's trying to go this late...The library maybe?...She did say she wanted for me to take her back to the infirmary... It's gotta be one of the two, I'll find out soon enough, I'll even be generous enough to give her a head start...
I pulled my shirt back on and took my bat just in case I might have a run in with any more lowly peons tonight as I headed out to the elevator, it seemed fine this time around oddly enough as I waited tapping my bat on my shoulder impatiently inside of it as I rode down to the main floor and got off in search of my troublesome little chit. The halls were empty as always except for a few parole officers here and there that I easily maneuvered around without being seen, I decided I check the infirmary since it was closer, it was just around the corner and as soon as I stepped in front of the door I saw the light inside go out. It was right around the same time my hand was on the doorknob, it turned and I held my bat with a firm hand as I let the doorknob turn and see Roxanne's slender figure turned around and bumped into mine, and then I lowered my weapon. She immediately froze when she saw me standing there in front of the door as she saw my weapon in hand and let out a small yelp of surprise and nearly hit me with her book as she jumped back.
I smirked at her startled reaction and then I pulled her out of the infirmary by her arm as the door slowly closed on it own, without letting of her arm I said with slight amusement in my voice, "Out for a midnight stroll, toots?"
She glared at me and said with annoyance, "No, and I don't have to explain myself to you."
Before I could come up with a witty retort, I heard footsteps coming our way, and without warning, Roxanne pulled me down under one of the entrance hall skirt-clothed tables, I raised an eyebrow and thought to myself, "Since when did she get this pushy?..."
I watched out of interest and curiosity as she crawls a few steps on her knees towards the entrance of the tablecloth and peeked out, while she was doing that I couldn't help but notice her little tush in front me and with that short little skirt of hers on I could see quite the view. Out of temptation, I started to reach out and grab it, but stopped when I say her turned back around and say, "It's just parole officers, should we wait?"
"I suppose." I said with annoyance because my little fun was spoiled as I sat scrunched up to the wall and she sat back too as we waited.
After a few minutes, I smirked and commented, "You used your knife to unlock the door, didn't you?...You a quick learner, toots. You might actually survive in my little kingdom after all."
She rolled her eyes at me and said nothing as she let out an aggravated sigh.
I smirked because I knew I got the last word this time.
Roxanne's Pov:
When I turned back around to tell Mal about the parole officers being out there, I couldn't help but have the slightest suspicion that Mal was up to something when I wasn't looking just now, and it made me uneasy. I sat beside him with my legs tucked under me and waited as I watched him twist his bat round and round in his hands in his lap for the next couple of minutes out of boredom, I was careful not to make eye contact with him, for some reason it always unnerved me when I try to look him in the eye for too long. I wonder if he has that effect on everyone else here, he's so strange and I'm pretty sure it's not in a good way either. I pulled my book closer to me out of the floor and placed it in my arms as I hugged it to me while I waited anxiously for the parole officers to pass so I could get out of this tight cramped space with Mal.
After a few more minutes went by, I started to wonder why Mal wasn't the one checking to see if the coast was clear, so I got tired of waiting and crawled forward again and decided I was gonna check myself. As soon as I pulled the cloth back just enough to see, my eyes grew wide and I knew now why Mal was acting so strange, that creep just squeezed my butt!...
I turned around immediately and found myself face to face with him as he grinned mischievously at me and slapped him as hard as I could across his stupid face, as I glared at him dangerously and then hissed at him angrily, "Mal, you pervert!...How dare you!"
His grin never left his lips, but he did rub his jaw where I smacked him, what surprised me was the fact that he didn't look angry like he was going to punish me like he usually does or threaten to.
He laughed and said with a calm demeanor, "What?...If you didn't want me to touch it, you should have teased me with it."
I growled at him as I angrily crawled out from under the table since I didn't see anyone before "Mal's indecent attempt to touch my goods" and got up, but before I could stalk off towards the elevator with rage, Mal grabbed my arm and spun me back around.
He looked me in the eye and said with a more serious tone, "As much as I enjoy you wearing little to nothing, I don't think you realize just how foolish you are being. I can tell you're not wearing a bra, toots. Believe me, I'm a guy and I do look. It's fine for a guy to dress with little to nothing on, but for someone like you, it's dangerous as hell. Especially here."
He pointed his finger down as he indicated his last bit of words as he grabbed me by my shoulders and shoved me into the wall practically pinning me in again as I glared up at him, as he continued to say with the same tone of voice, "You've never even been to a juvie before have you, Red?...This is your first, isn't it?...And in an all-boys-one at that...You need to start using that little brain of yours if you want to keep your innocence so badly, because if you don't...you know what will happen...and by the way, in case you forgot tonight was a close call in my cell."
His fingers dug into my flesh as he glared at me and concluded with a harsher tone, " Let me make something else perfectly clear since you completely clueless here, this juvie is for mostly delinquents that commit more serious crimes than the average juvie holds. So no one here is looking out for you except me, I promise as soon as I turn my back and leave, they will ravish and plunder you like rabid wolves without even the tiniest concept of mercy, do you understand?"
As much as I hate him and don't like having to agree with him, he was right I wasn't being very smart tonight or safe, I had only been thinking about getting one of the books I had checked out today at the library because I couldn't sleep, I didn't even put my other shirt back on or carry anything aside from my knife. At least I had that this time, unlike some many times before, but the rest of what he said disturbed me to my core. That can't be true...Why I even be put here in the first place if that was the truth of the matter...Mal can't be serious...I have Duncan...He would help me if I was in trouble...I'm sure of it...Right?...
For once I didn't have a snappy remark to make, so I just muttered in defeat, "You right, I wasn't thinking. Are you happy?...Can we just go back now?"
He cocked an eyebrow as though he was expecting me to say something else, and believe me he wasn't the only one, he took his hands off of me as we both headed in the direction towards the way to the elevator without another word spoken. Unfortunately, it only lasted for a few minutes before he stopped and I walked right into him from behind almost staggering and falling over, I was annoyed by it, but before I could angrily snap at him for it, he turned around and looked down at me like he just remembered something.
The grin he was giving me was creeping me out so I began to back away and sadly like I always seem to do I bumped into a wall and he walked up to me placing both of this arms on both sides of me and smoothy says in a cocky tone of voice, "You know it just occurred to me that you are in fact attracted to me."
My face turned ten shades of red and I prayed to everything that was holy to me that the dim lights in the hallway were masking it from his view because I retorted back with a flustered voice, "W...What the h...hell brought this on?...W...Why would you even t...think that?"
Mal smirk widen when he saw my face, and I felt trapped now as he continued in the same tone of voice with arrogance, "I didn't until just now after hearing your reply and seeing your reaction. I have been curious about it though."
His eyes gleamed with mischief as he leaned in further so that his face was only inches from mine as he continued on in the same tone of voice, "...And you know something else, toots?...I think you got a thing for me as well, but you're too scared to admit it."
My face was scarlet at this point as I reached up and tried to slap him, but he caught my hand without even flinching or moving any other part of his body, I was stunt and caught off guard by his words and the fact that caught my hand with such ease.
I can't even stand the very sight of him...Grrr...He's so full of himself that he actually believes that I want him?!...
I quickly recovered as I glared up at him even though I was still flustered by his comments and pointed an angry finger in his face as I said with as much composure as I could muster, "I don't know where you even got that idiotic notion of yours, but you dead wrong mister, I wouldn't even let the very thought enter my head of liking you let alone being attracted to you if you were the last living male of my species on this planet!"
Mal chuckled at my defensive tirade as he pulled back and stood there regarding me with increased interest as he crossed his arms over his chest and in a sly tone of voice, he said, "Not even if I was the last man alive, huh?"
I narrowed my eyes and said with intense bravo, "Not even if you were the last!"
He cocked his head to the side with his signature smirk and smugly said, "So since you are not attracted to me at all," he began to pull off his shirt and continued on, "then touch me and prove me wrong. Touch my bare flesh, toots."
I flushed as soon as he took his shirt off when he said that, I shook my head vigorously and said firmly, "Hell no!"
"Why not?... Are you scared to find out that I'm right and that you're wrong?" He commented smoothly with a smirk and began to lean in again as I flatten myself against the wall to avoid coming into contact with his bare flesh.
"I. Am. Not. Touching. You. Period. End of discussion." I said through clenched teeth.
He laughs and says smugly, "So you are scared then..."
"No, I just don't want to do it, and I don't have to either. You can't make me!" I spat back at him with defiance ringing from every word that came out of my mouth.
With his smirk still intact he suddenly grabbed my hand, and forced me to feel him as he ran it down his chest, top to bottom in a slow motion, I hastily yanked my hand back as I squealed out of panic and then turned scarlet red again out of embarrassment.
He leaned his face into mine and said with victory gleaming in his eyes, "I win!"
I flushed and then growled at him as he went on to say arrogantly, "You wanna know why, because you refused to do it and stalled to buy time by arguing with me and when you finally did touch me, you blushed like a little virgin on her wedding night."
"Screw you, jerkface!" I spat at him as I narrowed my eyes as I felt my cheeks heat even further, I pushed him off of me and stormed off towards the elevator.
Mal's Pov:
Looks like I manage to mess with Roxanne's head...I don't think I've seen her this flustered in a while...Seeing her get so worked up over just a mere touch of my chest was exhilarating, to say the least...Makes me start to wonder if, in fact, my cute little bride-to-be does harbor some feelings for me...Curiouser and curiouser...
I chuckled at not only my thoughts but her fleeing figure as she took off in a fit of rage to get away from me as she headed towards the elevator, I smirked as I took my bat and tossed my shirt over my shoulder and followed closely behind. As soon as I caught with her, we both got in the elevator and I pressed the button for our floor as I noticed out of the corner of my eye that she was avoiding to look at me with her arms crossed over her chest in an obvious pout. I smirked because I knew she was still angry with me and was probably going to stay that way for awhile at that, I liked that about her. She was just too easy to set off and I took great pleasure in being the one to do it.
She didn't look or even talk to me once the entire time at least not until an idea popped into my head, and then I turned around and stroll over to her which she noticed and backed away from me as I leaned down and whispered in her ear just for the fun of it and in husky, low voice, which I noticed made her tremble, I said, "You know, I still owe you that pap smear...I could even find some latex gloves if you like. What do ya say toots? Want me to play doctor with ya?"
She glared at me as she blushed and slapped me across my jaw and hissed back in irritated tone, "Mal, you're such a freak! Stop it already! There is no way in hell that I'm marrying a sicko like you!"
"Why does it bother you so much, my sweet?" I asked as tapped my bat in my hand as we continued to go up in the elevator, "I already told you I treat you good."
She gave me a scowled look and looked the other way to avoid my gaze, so I whispered in her ear again just for good fun in a seductive tone, "If it's the sex you're worried about I can assure you, I'm one of hell of a lover, just ask Duncan's girlfriend. I'm sure he's told you all about her today."
Roxanne's Pov:
Mal's dirty comments were starting to really get to me, and the last one hit the nail on the head, so I viciously snapped with eyes full of outrage, I shouted, "I don't care how good a lover you think you are, because to put it bluntly I am not having sex with you. Not now. Not ever. I wish you would drop dead."
Mal's eyes turned cold on the spot and I could tell I hit a major nerve just now, with a clank of his bat, he tossed it down and immediately pinned me to the way as he pressed himself into me with a fury burning in his eyes as he spoke in a low and dangerous tone of voice, "Don't you ever say that again!...Have you already forgotten your deal with me?!...Your body is mine, Roxanne, and it's about to be mine legally soon, so don't you even think for a second that you-"
Before Mal could finish his angry tirade, the elevator began to violently jolt out of control, the lights started flickering on and off. I shrieked and called out Mal's name as I dropped my book as I reached out to grab Mal to keep from falling as he grabbed the steel bar that extended on the lower part of the walls of the elevator to steady himself as he pinned both of us in. Mal's bat was bouncing and making a loud clanking noise as the out of control elevator rattled on and made screeching noises. It suddenly stopped as it suddenly came, both of us still stood in the same position heavily panting even after it stopped. I was too shook up to move and Mal seemed a bit perturbed as his eyes never left my wide and frightened ones, but just as we were starting to calm down and get our nerves settled, without a sign of a warning the elevator suddenly took another violent turn.
Several things happened in that brief bit of time I screamed, Mal swore as he grabbed me and told me to hold on to the rails, which I did but did not have time to turn around and so I was holding them facing him as he held onto them facing me, and we both held on for dear life as we faced a second round of being thrown around. I clamped my eyes closed shut and leaned into Mal as I felt my insides doing somersaults, I could feel his heart racing in his chest as did mine as I waited for this to pass. Then the worst finally happened yet, the elevator without warning took a huge plunge and spiral down at a rapid speed that continued to accelerate downwards as it screeched loudly, it was so sudden that it tossed both of us to the top of the elevator with Mal's body nearly crushing mine into the ceiling. I screamed Mal's name again in panic as he placed both his arms around me tightly to protect me from further injury which really surprised me because I figured that would be the last thing he'd do for me. I was positive he'd be looking out for him, not me.
I was so scared as I wrapped my arms around Mal's neck and started to wish I could take back what I said to him just now, that I wish he would drop dead, I didn't actually think we would go out like this, and I sure didn't want to die with Mal in an elevator either. I closed my eyes tight as I held on to Mal for dear life and prayed we didn't die or worse, I wasn't sure at the moment if it could get any worse than it was already. I didn't want to die and was scared to death as I opened my eyes to see Mal trying to remain calm as our eyes connected for just a brief second, I could see his eyes narrow into mine as he looked for the first time panicked. We continued to descend at ungodly speeds, and then just like before it suddenly jumped to a stop and Mal fell first and then me on top of him as he looked up at me and then my book lands on his head.
He glares at me and heaves breathlessly as he says, "I...I h..hope that damn..t..thing was worth it!"
I cringe because I actually felt bad as I mumbled out loud, "Sorry..."
Then the bat came down and Mal's eyes grew wide as he swore and I grabbed it before it hit him square in the face and said, "You're welcome."
He closed his eyes and he let out a sigh of relief as we both tried to calm down once again and catch our breath and then the lights went out.
Mal's Pov:
I don't know how she did it, but I can't even begin to say how thankful that that bat didn't land on my face, I would have been pissed if it had. I laid there for another minute to breathe easier and then lights went out, and I thought, "Right on cue..."
Chris is a cheap bastard...He's lucky this damn thing didn't kill us...When I get out of here, I'm gonna choke him in his sleep...
"Roxanne." I said loosely with my eyes still closed.
"Yeah?" She replied quietly bent over on top of me still.
"You can get up now." I said in a not amused tone as I began to get up.
"O..oh, right!...Sorry." I hear her squeak as she shuffles out of my lap if it were any other time I wouldn't complain, but with the elevator spiraling out of control like it was a few minutes ago, I didn't have time for it.
I got up to my feet stiffly as I reached into my pocket and took out my lighter, but as soon as I flicked it on, the emergency lights came on, so I put it back in my pocket and walked over to see if the elevator would go anywhere, but none of the buttons worked. They spat out sparks and I jumped back to avoid being burned and it lasted for a minute before they went out. The elevator had died. I swore as I tried to pry open the doors, but with no luck. They were shut tight and we were stuck and trapped inside.
"What do we do now?" Roxanne asked nervously as I looked over and see her anxiously fidgeting with her hands looking in my direction.
I didn't say anything for a minute because I honestly didn't have an answer.
"I don't know." I said with irritation as I stood there and swore again.
I could see she was getting more worried by the second as I watched her pick her book and then my bat up, as she took a step towards me the elevator began to swing back and forth dangerously like it was getting ready to give in and crash.
"Don't move." I said firmly as I grabbed a hold of the wall where I stood and she drops her things and grabbed the rail to keep from falling.
I could see fear welling up in her eyes as she looked up into mine trembling and asked, "Mal, Are we going to die?"
I swallowed and in a calm tone of voice said, "No, not yet."
Then I got an idea, if the doors don't work then we'll have to find another source to get out. I looked up at the ceiling and then around the elevator, my eyes landed on my bat.
"Roxanne, roll the bat towards me." I said as I still stood in the same spot.
"Okay." She replied as she gingerly squatted down and pushed the bat in my direction.
I picked it up and carefully walked to the center of the elevator slowly and motioned for her to do the same as well while I kneeled down and with all seriousness, "Get on my shoulders, and take the bat."
I could see her eyes questioning my words, but before she could argue I said more firmly, "Just do it. We don't have time to fight."
I could see she got the message as she wrapped her legs around my shoulders and I slowly and carefully stood back up while elevator barely rocked and gave her instructions as I went on to say, "Start ramming the top of the ceiling with the end of the bat. We need to tear it open before this thing falls any further and kills us."
I could feel her taking a deep breath and then she began to do as I commanded and after a good twelve hits, the ceiling gave in, and the top came loose enough to remove it to reveal a good size hole for us to get out. She climbed through it as I jumped up and climbed my way up top too, I looked up and then all around as I survey the area, it was almost pitch black the only source of light was coming from the elevator and some of the slits that came from the other floors which were quite a bit of ways up from where we were now. Roxanne held onto my side for support so as not to fall as we stood on top of the elevator in the shaft.
As soon as my hand grabbed onto the wire cables, the elevator suddenly dropped out from underneath us and I tightened my hold on the cables as I immediately snatched up Roxanne's hand before she went with it. I could see the panic in her eyes as she held onto my hand for dear life.
Her life was in my hands.
Roxanne's Pov:
As soon as we had climbed out and got on top of the elevator, it suddenly took a dive and drop like a heavy boulder out of the sky and it nearly took both of us with it if it had not been for Mal grabbing the wire cables. He seized a hold of my hand instantly and I held on tight as I felt adrenaline kicking in and extreme panic flooding my senses as I stared up at him praying he didn't decide to let go. Our eyes locked on each other and I could tell he was scared too. I could see it in his eyes as he looked back into mine.
I've never seen Mal afraid of anything before until now.
I was so scared as tears filled my eyes and I stammered up at Mal in fear with a shaky voice, "Please don't let me go, Mal!"
Mal didn't say anything for a minute like he was trying to compose himself and then he said through his panting, "I wasn't planning on it, but you need to hurry up and use me as a ladder because I can feel you slipping now."
My eyes grew wide with fear he was right, our hands were sweaty and I could feel myself slipping from his death grip even though he tightened his hand around mine. I closed my eyes as I felt myself panicking further.
I didn't want to die like this...Not in some elevator shaft with Mal in some stupid juvie...
"Roxanne!...Hurry up, I can't hold you much longer!" He yelled down at me as I opened my eyes and looked back up into his.
I swallowed and reached my other hand upwards as I did my best to grab one of his legs, it was just inches away, but not close enough for me to reach. Mal grunted and then started to pull me upwards as I continued to try to get a hold him, but I was having no luck.
Finally he with a serious and stern look on his face, Mal said, "I'm gonna swing you up towards me and when I do, you better grab me because if you don't you will fall. Do you got me?"
I nodded my headed anxiously and sure enough Mal tightened his hand holding my mine and swung me up so fast I thought with terror plaguing me that I was going to miss my chance, but miraculously I didn't and I leaped upwards and grabbing onto Mal as I frantically wrapped my arms around his neck and squeezed my eyes shut tight. We both were panting heavily as we dangled by the elevator's wire cables in the shaft, I could feel Mal's heart racing and it felt really awkward since he never put his shirt back on from earlier. I could feel his sweat on my chest since I was wearing my tank top, he was drenched, I opened my eyes to see his looking into mine as we both continued to just breath for the moment and the calm our nerves once again. He stopped to look up and then looked back down which I followed his gaze and saw that the elevator was gone and nowhere to be seen now. It must have crashed to the very bottom of the facility.
He finally caught his breath and said, "You need to lock your legs around my waist. I can't pull us up if you're dangling around me like this."
"W..What?!" I stammered out loud as my eyes grew wide with nervousness.
"Just do it." He said sternly.
I gulped and attempted to do as he said, by apparently not fast enough because he placed his hand on my rear and shoved me up further as I wrapped my legs around him and crossed my ankles. I was sure that this was the closest I've ever been to Mal since "the tub in the infirmary incident", and it was nerve-racking for me because I didn't like the idea of being this close to him and especially not in this way. I could feel all his muscles in his chest and his abs tightening, it was probably any other girl's fantasy at this point, but not mine. It made me so nervous and self-conscious. Maybe if it was someone else aside from Mal, then yes I'd be okay with it, but since it wasn't, I was feeling very overwhelmed by how close our bodies were linked together. I was sure my face was scarlet red again at this point and I hoped he couldn't see it. I knew as much as I hated it, I was going to have to trust him again.
"If this wasn't a life and death situation, I'd kill you for touching my butt for the second time in a roll in the same night!" I retorted at him with irritation.
He cocked an eye at me and said evenly, "Not that we have time for this, but you do have a nice firm little tush. Be grateful I just saved it."
I glared at him and icily said, "I am."
I continued to glare at him as he smirked at me.
"Why don't you be good and be quiet so I can get us out of here, huh?" He said in a serious and harsh tone as he began to pull us up.
I didn't say anything, but I still continued to glare at him the whole time since I was stuck staring into his face. He didn't seem bothered by it one bit as he resumed climbing up the wire cables, I held on tight and buried my face in his shoulder to avoid having to look at him anymore than I had to. Minutes ticked by, and I was beginning to wonder what time it was, and then suddenly Mal lost his grip and slide some which cause me to panic as I shrieked out loud, but he soon reattached himself. I could feel him panic for a brief minute as his pulse was hammering against mine that was practically in unison, he swore and started up again.
"Are...Are you okay?" I hesitantly asked as I looked up into his eyes.
"Fine." He said gruffly as his eyes looked irritable.
I placed my head in the crook of his neck again to avoid pissing him off more, after a few more minutes of silence that was eating at me, in a small voice I said, "Mal?"
"What?' He said with annoyed tone.
"I have a confession to make in case we don't make it out of here alive." I said hesitantly.
"What?...You're not going to say you're in love me now are you?...Because you're out of luck there." He said sarcastically.
"No!...I wasn't going to say that at all!" I snapped as I angrily glared at him.
He chuckled as he continued to climb and then paused and smugly said, "Really?..Then what is it?"
I blushed and turned my head as I said with a pout, "Nevermind, just forget it. Forget I even said anything."
He raises an eyebrow and says with a curious tone, "What?"
I let out a big sigh and just blurted it out, "Well, I just was going to say that...if we don't make it, that...I...really did like that kiss you gave me in the bathroom!"
I closed my eyes and felt my cheeks heat up and waited for his gloating remark, but it didn't come, so I reopened them to see him smirking at me and then says, "So you liked that did ya?...Why didn't you just say then?"
He leaned his face into mine as he went on to say, "...Had you been honest about it, to begin with my feisty little minx, we could have moved onto more "interesting things." I had other plans that night until they were interrupted."
I blushed even more but didn't know how to respond to that.
"You know what I don't have any confessions, but I do have a last request if this is how we end." He said with a sly smile.
"What's that?" I asked nervously as his smirk reached his eyes as well.
"Kiss me. If this is it, then kiss me like you did tonight when you tried to seduce me." He said deviously.
I closed my eyes in embarrassment and retorted back in panic, "It was seduction, it was a distraction to get away, and it failed, okay!?"
He chuckled as he smirked and said, "Fine, whatever. Just do it. I can't hold onto this cable forever you know."
I swallowed and sternly said with a serious look, "Fine, but only on one condition and that's that you stop trying to get in my pants without my permission. I get to chose what we do and how we do it, otherwise, you're not getting the kiss, and I won't let you touch me if you try it."
He glared at me with an icily stare and then said, "What?!"
"You heard me!" I retorted back with a glare of my own, as I continued to say, "Agree to it or no kiss."
He didn't say anything, but I could tell he was pissed, then finally after a minute me said, "You're saying you are willing to let me touch you as long as I get your permission?"
"Y...Yes, and only if I'm comfortable with it, otherwise it is a "no"!"
He let out an aggravated sigh and said, "Fine, it is a deal then. Now hurry up and kiss me. I'm getting tired."
I started to worry, if he's tiring now, then how much further is it going to be before we reach a point to get out.
I closed my eyes and decided to quickly get it over with as I pressed my lips into his. As much as I didn't like him, I actually liked kissing him.
This is wrong, right?...I shouldn't like this...Not with him...He's no good for me...and I know it, but yet his kisses feel right...Why?...
Mal started trailing kisses around my lips slowly and then roughly took my mouth as I gasped and lost my breath as he deepened the kiss further. I thought for a minute I was going to fall because I was starting to feel weak from his heat and his hot breath on my face. He finally pulled away and smirked as he saw that he left me breathless, he didn't say anything after that as he returned to climbing the cables. Looking upwards, I could see a bit of light getting brighter second by second, so maybe we were going to make it after all.
After a while I notice Mal was actually odd again, so I raised an eyebrow at him as I see him smirking at me, and then out of annoyance I said, "What are you looking at?"
"Oh...just at a nice set of tits." He said casually when I realized he was looking down at my breasts since my tank top was kind of revealing. I regret now not putting my other shirt back on.
I flushed angrily and snap back at him, "I thought you said they were big enough for you!"
"Doesn't really matter the size, they're still nice to look at." Mal drawled as he continued to pull us upwards.
"Well stop looking at them you pervert!" I growled with irritation dripping from my tone.
"Hard to do from this position we're in toots." He said smugly looking me in the eye.
"You creep!" I hissed at him with a dangerous glare in my eyes.
He laughed and retorted back, "Spoiled princess!"
"Asshole!" I retaliated not breaking eye contact with him.
"Crybaby!" He snapped back with a glare.
"Insensitive jerk!" I barked back.
"Ice queen!" He spat at me.
"King of nothing!" I screamed in his face because I knew just how much he liked to pride himself on being one.
"Alright, that's enough!" He yelled back at me with his hot breath on my face as we both glared at each other dangerously.
I pouted and said, "You started it."
"I don't care who started it, just shut it!" Mal spouted back at me with irritation oozing from his lips.
I pursed my lips together and growled as I looked in another direction to avoid having to look at him for much longer. After that, he resumed his task of pulling us up which I didn't remember him stopping, but I guess he must have when we started bickering with each other just now. We didn't say anything to one another for the rest of the way up, and I could feel my arms and legs growing more tired by the minute, I couldn't even begin to imagine how tired Mal was lifting not just him, but me too.
After what felt like ten more minutes, we finally came to a ledge where the elevator probably would have stopped and opened if it was still running. Mal stopped as he was panting, I could tell he was wearing out, I was really amazed he was strong enough to do this, the guy must be some kind of body-lifter or something. I just don't know how he does it.
Without any warning Mal threw me onto the ledge which scared the hell out of me because I thought for sure I would fall to my death, I panted and with an anxious voice I said, "Could you at least warn me next time?"
He opened his eyes as he hung from the cables and said with irritation in his voice, "I couldn't hold you anymore. Besides I knew you'd be fine."
I glared at him for a minute, but then remembered I was on a very thin ledge that barely held one person, so I kept that in mind as I watched Mal swing himself towards me while he let go of the cables and jumped. His feet made it onto the ledge, but then he lost his balance and I saw the fear in his eyes and the fear grew in mine as I saw him falling backward. I felt my heart plummet as Mal started falling away from me as his arms tried to reach out to grab a hold of me. I acted immediately.
"Mal!" I screamed his name in panic as I immediately reached out and wrapped myself around his torso and pulled him into me into the small ledge I stood on, I could feel the stitches in my foot tearing again painfully, but I ignored it, for some reason I was more concerned and afraid of letting him go at the moment.
I didn't love him, but I didn't want to see him die either, the thought bothered me. We both stood there with my arms still tightly wrapped around him as I hugged him and his arms up against the wall for support as we have our "who-knows" how many heart attacks tonight, at this point, I've lost count. Again we catch our breath, and then I feel Mal's eyes on me so I look up and see him looking down at me with newfound interest like he was seeing for the first time, and it was kind of weird and unsettling.
"Turn around. Slowly." He said after catching his breath looking me in the eye with all seriousness.
"Why?" I asked even though I did it anyway.
"Because I have to figure out how to get the doors pried open, so we can get the hell out of here." He said like he was explaining to a child.
"Okay, don't be an ass about it then." I retorted back at him as he leaned over me.
He growled but didn't comment on it as he went on to explain less rudely, "I'm going use my knife-"
"You mean my knife!" I corrected him.
Mal hissed at me and went on, "Actually little sassy-soon-be-wife-of-mine, I'll be using mine and I'm gonna use it to wedge it into the slit of the doors and you are going to try to open the doors while I'm doing that. So you think you can handle that, or is that too much trouble for you?"
"No charming-soon-be-hubby-of-mine, I think I'm perfectly capable of opening a door!" I spat back at him.
I hear him chuckle in my ear as I can feel him reaching down, no doubt to retrieve "his knife", then he leans in with his arms over my shoulders as he uses a knife, ironically enough that isn't mine because the blade was too long to be mine, it looked more like a dagger than a knife, to be honest.
He then carefully wedges it in between the slits like he said he would and started forcing it through, by then I placed my hands cautiously around the area he was working on and began my attempt to pull the doors apart. They were shut tight, but I kept trying nonetheless, after a few more tries they started to come open a few inches at a time. We were so close...
We're gonna make it...I can feel it...Almost there...
Mal stopped wedging his blade in between the two doors and started helping me as we both grunted and fought to get them open, with Mal's help they became more easier to pull back before I knew it they were open just wide enough for us to quickly pass through and suddenly Mal shoved me inside. I fell out into the floor onto my back and Mal landed on top of me, as we both laid there breathless like that for a moment enjoying the fact that we actually got out of there alive.
I smiled and laughed as I looked up at Mal and said, "I can't believe we did it. We actually made it."
I instantly resisted the temptation to reach up and kiss him full on the mouth, so instead, I pecked him on the cheek out my sudden feelings of excitement to finally be free of being trapped inside the elevator shaft. Mal didn't say anything, he just grinned at me and for once it wasn't a creepy one either. It was a genuine smile. It actually made my heart stop. I didn't think that this jerk was capable of such a smile. He really was full of surprises, but I didn't hold my breath because with him I knew better, I knew it would last, but for the moment I enjoyed it.
