TRAPPED - 2 (sketchxreader)

Elijah-

While I was in training with y/n I lost track of days and the concept of time as well. The days spent here felt different, they went by faster it seemed.

In the night we had our routine of walking the street and practicing better control on my powers.

In the morning, we had a routine as well but it was different from night time. I'd wake up and y/n would already be awake. God knows how many hours before me.

I'd hear commotion that she was getting ready to go somewhere. I never asked where. Though, she'd slightly lift up my blind fold and I'd get to watch the tv in front of me.

I inspected and realized I was put in a very dark and rusty room yet it didn't feel scary. There was a tv placed ahead of me which was designed like a 1990's tv. A big square with wide edges. Also the room had one door and no windows.

Today it happens again. I am awoken by a lot of movements and there is a scent in the air. It is distinct and I immediately know what it is.

It is a perfume that y/n wore a lot during the starting phase of our relationship and she had it on the very first time we met. It smells of summer joy and strawberries. It doesn't suit her anymore.

"Where are you going?" I ask but no reply.

Though, after a while I hear footsteps walking towards my direction, "to school. " She replies and undoes my blind fold.

We share a look and she walks out the door.

Her reply rings in my ears like an alarm. She said she was going to school. I suddenly remember that this isn't some alternate timeline. There are things going on in the outside world.

My family is waking up every day and doing stuff. School is happening as well and what am I doing? I am over here trapped in this dark and bleak room with nothing but a tv and I have to wait for hours for y/n to get back.

I start to rediscover the concept of time and God it fucking moves slow and especially in painful and sad moments. They never seem to end.

I close my eyes and sit with my feelings. Then something happens. It's a crash.

Ethan-

I was advised to take 5 days off school and now I am back here. Just like that. 

I wouldn't say I am magically healed or anything but I feel better than before I guess. The world doesn't look black and white anymore, the colors are slowly starting to fill in.

And my experience with Therapy? Well it didn't suck.

I was basically made to admit all my feelings and to be honest I found it easy to open up because I had been repressing these feelings for so long. They put special attention on me since I was suicidal.

You see, my life problems aren't gone and Elijah isn't back either but I have learned how to sort of put those issues to the side and focus on the present.

The friends I have right now are the best. They mean the world to me and of course my girlfriend Amie! I love her and appreciate her so much. I am sitting behind her in math class right now. We will directly get to talk in lunch break and all the boys will be there too along with y/n.

I am zoned out thinking about all the fun things I have missed out on but I will catch up on them very soon then my day dreams are interrupted by the speaker going off.

The principal comes on and reminds us that prom is on Friday which is 5 days from now. The class breaks into a scream because some are excited and some are just happy to mess with the teacher.

I share a look with Amie. I am asking her to prom tomorrow and we'll have the time of our lives. I am looking forward to this.....

(Lunch break)

I sit down and goof off with the gang. Yes, I am starting to make jokes and conversations again.

"So Ms. Stinson comes around to check on me and I pretend I'm thinking deeply sven though I am not. I am just blatantly copying answers off the guy in front of me. " Denis is mid way through his story.

Corl fills in the blank, "and she didn't really notice because Ms. Stinson is as blind as a bat. "

"Exactly. That's why I always cheat in her class. "

"No you cheat in every class. " I add on which makes everyone laugh.

Then y/n enters the scene and her Cologne is very strong.

"Weird. You smell of strawberries. " Denis comments.

Corl starts laughing before uttering his joke, "is that the girl version of axe or what?!"

Then I change the topic.

"Anyway, I am planning to ask Amie to prom tomorrow. How do you guys think I should do it! Quick! Drop your ideas before she comes! "

Everyone shares a look.

Y/n states, "Just ask her out normally like normal people do.

"Give her a thousand roses. " Blurts out Alex.

Denis looks to be in deep thought then he says, "Just write it out on a paper or something. "

"Give her food. " Suggests Corl.

Everyone has given their ideas except Sub so I look at him, "Sub?"

He sighs, "Do I look like I know anything about girls?"

His honesty makes everyone laugh and then Amie joins us. The table goes silent.

"What!? Did Ethan fart and blame it on me again? What's going on?" Amie asks.

"Totally " Says Denis.

I look at him, "Shut the hell up and Amie! There's nothing going on. Just the usual stuff. What's up with you?"

"Oh where do I even start! I have science homework and an assignment that I have get in before prom and-"

I rest my chin on the palms of my hands and listen to Amie's rant with a smile on my face. She looks very cute when she rambles on about stuff.

School is dismissed after 4 more classes and I walk home with excitement. I only have one day to prepare to ask Amie to prom and I have got plan for it....

Y/N-

I wave my friends goodbye and walk out the school premises. Elijah must be busy watching mindless entertainment on the TV.

I have to go back to him.

I barge into the woods where the trees seem endless then I cross a small river and go in deeper. I walk miles and miles to get to the place.

I open the door and I'm met with an interesting sight to say the least. Elijah is still tied to his chair with the blindfold laying on the bedside table.

There are little pieces of sharp glass embellished all over the floor. Where did they come from? I look up and hear a distorted sound coming from the smashed and broken tv.

And Elijah is passed out.

He let his emotions take the front wheel again. This can't be happening.

Now his training is going to become more intense and I won't be shy to be cruel....
