Chapter 5
"JACOB!! What are you doing here?!" "I didn't have a house. You of all people should've known that. I stayed here the whole time." "LIAM!!!" "Shut your mouth. C'mon." He pulled me out the back door and into the yard. "Climb that fence." I did as I was told. He got over it and pulled me down the street. "He won't be able to find you here." "He'll try though, and you can't help that." "SHUT UP!" "Make me. I can talk about the man I love as much as I want." He slapped me across the face. "Let's go before he finds out you're gone." "No." I said stubbornly. "Come on you b****!" I got out of his grip and started running. It wasn't long before I was pushed to the ground. "Quit trying to leave. It's only going to make your punishment worse." I whimpered as he pulled me up and drug me down the street. We reached the end of the street where his car was parked. "Get in." I got in hesitantly and as he got in, he pulled out a gun and a blindfold. "Call him and tell him you want to break up and that you left." "My phone's dead." "Use mine." He handed it to me and I unlocked it. I pulled up the dialing screen, and typed in 911. {once again, I don't know the British version of 911} "911, what is your emergency?" "I've been kidnapped help me." I said quickly before he had the chance to stop me. "You little shit!!" He opened his door and threw the phone out. He put the blindfold on me so I had no idea where we were going. I started crying, knowing I wasn't leaving anytime soon. "What the hell's wrong now?" "Why are you taking me? It's not like you care about me." "YES I DO." "No you don't! If you did, you wouldn't abuse me, and treat me like shit. You'd also let me be happy with Liam..." "DON'T TALK ABOUT HIM!!" I don't know why, but I felt enough bravery to yell back. "AND WHY THE HELL NOT? ARE YOU JEALOUS THAT YOU AREN'T AS AMAZING, SWEET AND AS GOOD LOOKING AS HE IS?!?!?!" "SHUT UP!!!" He yelled, and I could hear him shift in his seat, probaly facing me. He slapped me again, harder than he ever as before. I started crying again, and because he was so focused on yelling at me, he swerved off the road. I took off my blindfold and studied him. He was knocked unconscious by the impact but I knew he'd wake up soon. I was still unstable from the crash as I got out. I tried running, but was too dizzy to run, so I was forced to walk. I wasn't familiar with this neighborhood, so I had to go on instinct. By now it was about 9:00, and it was getting dark. Just great. I wonder if Liam even knows I'm gone yet...if he does, I wonder what he's doing to try and find me, if he even is. I heard something behind me, and looked back to see Jacob getting out of the car. He was even more unstable than me, but would catch up easily if I continued at this rate. I tried jogging which seemed to work okay, so I went as far as I could. I rounded a corner and saw a street that still didn't look familiar. I tried knocking on doors to get a phone and call Liam, but nobody would answer. "I'm at a pay phone trying to call home, all of my change I spent on you. Where have the times gone? Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?" Singing that reminded me of Liam, and how I might not see him again if Jacob catches up to me. A police car drove by, and I tried waving him down, but he didn't see me. I found a small bench and laid down, just wanting to get back home.
***************
"Was that all just a dream?" I looked around and noticed I was on the bench. I got up and started running. Now that I was stable, I managed to do this without falling. I ran to up to a house and knocked. They answered moments after. "Can I use your phone?" "I guess so. If you don't mind, who are you calling?" "My boyfriend. I got kidnapped last night by my abusive ex." "Sure come on in." "Thank you so much." "No problem. That's a serious situation." The nice lady handed me her phone and I typed in Liam's number. *ringing ringing ringing* Nothing. I tried again. Nothing. Okay. I'll just call Niall. *ringing ringing* "Hello?" "Niall! Please come pick me up." "Mitchie?! What happened?! Where are you?" "Um...just a second Ni." I turned to the lady. "Ma'am what's the address?" "204 Elmwood lane." "Thanks." She nodded and went back to reading her magazine. "204 Elmwood." "Alright. I'll be there soon. I would have Liam come along, but he's actually out looking for you. He's not even answering his phone." "Yeah, I know. I tried." "I'll see you in a minute." I hung up and handed her the phone. "Thank you soo much...-" "Isabelle." She smiled. "Did you report him to the police?" "No not yet. I will when I get home though." "Good. They need to know about this." "Yeah...he was really abusive and one night he lost it and drew a gun on me..." "Oh my gosh! Did he shoot?" "No, he didn't get the chance. My best friend, now boyfriend, tackled him and beat him up." "Well, I'm praying for you two." "Thank you ma'am. Goodbye!" "Bye sweetie." I walked outside and stood by the road. I sat down on the sidewalk and drew shapes with a rock I found. After what I guessed to be 20 minutes, I saw Niall's car. As soon as the car stopped, he hopped out. "Mitchie! I'm so glad you're alright!" He picked me up and held me in his arms. "Why'd you leave?" "I didn't do it by choice Ni...J-Jacob was there." "Where is he? How'd you get away?" "I'll tell you on the way home." "Alright." He kissed my head and got in the car. I got in the passenger's seat and told him everything that happened. He listened carefully to every word I spoke, making sure he didn't miss a thing. "I'm surprised you made it out alive honestly." I laughed nervously, and tucked some hair behind my ear. "Well, Liam's still not home." "Yeah, he must still be out looking for you. Oh! I've got an idea!" "What?" "Whenever he comes home, I don't tell him that your back, and when he goes into his room, you'll be sitting on the bed." "Perfect Ni." I went upstairs and took a shower. I dried my hair and slipped into his room. I put on one of his tank tops and grabbed a pair of shorts from my bag. I put my hair into a messy bun, and as I did, I heard a car door slam shut. "Hey Liam. Any luck?" I heard from downstairs. I sat on his bed and listened. "No! I don't where she is or why she left...I can't believe she'd just leave! She said she loved me..." "It'll be okay man. I'm sure she'll turn up soon, just go take a nap or something. You've been up all night looking. She'll turn up." "Fine. I'm going to go look for her after I wake up though." "Alright." I could hear him coming up the stairs and tried my hardest not to run out of the room. His door opened, but he didn't notice me because his head was down. As soon as he looked up though, his face was priceless. His eyes went wide and his mouth was open in shock. He tried to speak, but couldn't, so he just ran to me. I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him tight. I started crying tears of joy, as he laid us back. "B-Babe...Why'd you leave?" "I didn't leave...I was kidnapped..." "BY JACOB?" "Yeah..." "I've had enough of him! I'm calling the police right now!" "No Li! Not yet. I wanna cuddle. I missed you too much." He smiled as he calmed down. "I missed you too babe. What'd he do?" "Well, first he took be out the back way-" I told him everything, and the more I talked, the more Liam looked like he wanted to punch something. "At least you're okay. I don't know what I would've done if you weren't." I smiled sadly and kissed him. We started making out and didn't stop for a while. "I love you soo much." "I love you too Liam...I was scared you wouldn't find me..." "Even if you didn't get away, I'd make sure I found you." I kissed him again, and scooted closer. "I don't want to leave your arms again." "That makes two of us."
