I had lost count of days and my face no longer throbbed. I longed to breathe in fresh air and smell the grass. I wondered what was outside my prison.His face was contorted with fury and his movements were rough and aggressive. I saw a tunnel few feet ahead. He wasn't going to make me run, right? I wasn't sure I could even run and I rubbed feeling into my numb arms.He dropped a bag and brought out a wicked sharp blade. The one he used to cut me. A whimper escaped my throat.

That's a very lovely name, my dear." Jason said, smiling at me in a creepy way I didn't like at all. We were having dinner at Jason's house and I was not happy about the words he whispered about my mom to make her blush. Boy, was she naïve.She had been seeing him for two months now and she was very happy. Every morning, she ratted out words about how awesome and nice he was until I had to put in my airpods to block out her voice."So, my dear, how is school? I noticed you were walking home that day. Do you not have a car?" Here he was, trying to get me to chat with him. I pushed my food around in my plate."If

Chapter: Chapter Nine (Part II) Becca's POVI saw myself running. Running from Adams and his sick game. I could hear my heart pounding in my chest, my eyes wide and my legs moving as fast as they could.I heard, rather than saw, the arrow whiz past me and lodge in a tree bark. The woods was too big! I would never get to the road on time."Seven!" he yelled. I had played hide and seek countless times and I knew it wasn't played this way. Somehow, Adams had twisted my favorite game into something deadly.Every attempt he made to kill me nibbled at my confidence. Adrenaline made my senses sharper, suppressed the fear and made me faster. I knew he would kill me if he found me. I wouldn't make it out alive.A stone whistled past my ear and struck a pine tree by my left. He had started using the catapult and from the distance and aim, he was good.I zigzagged through tress and

Chapter: Chapter Nine Becca's POVROSES ARE RED,BLOOD IS REDDERSHE DIDN'T KNOW IT,BUT HE GOT BETTER.For the doctors, it was relief I didn't die. For my mom, she kept on sobbing. For me, it was a disaster. How could I come back to everything?I had been deemed unstable, so the police had been shooed out of my room. Leaving me alone with my thoughts, memories and pain.He came back sweating, covered in blood. I knew he had done something bad, something wrong. I tried to believe that it was ketchup but I knew better.He grabbed my arm roughly and half dragged, half carried through the door. I didn't have it in me to scream. I was too tired and I suspected I had a fever.He dragged me through a series of left s and rights I immediately forgot when I saw them. My hopes sank and I knew I coul

Chapter: Chapter Eight Adrianne's PovTuesday came and I dreaded the reply my friends would give me. I felt stupid for running out of class and trust me, my English teacher wasn't going to be happy about that.My resentment towards my mom had disappeared and I found myself giving her a smile when I was eating breakfast. She was shocked and it only made me smile wider.The drive to school was enjoyable as I rode shotgun and fiddled with the radio knob. I found a nice song and to my astonishment, my mom sang along with daddy Yankee as he sang 'despacito' .I nodded I'm respect and she finished in a high pitched voice(That I have to say was amazing). It ended in a fit of giggles and we swapped smiles. I knew we had just taken the first step towards our new relationship.Mom dropped me off at school and was suddenly very nervous. I smiled again and pecked her cheek. "Have a nice day, mom." she nodded, watching me walk into the school buildi
