Isabella's POV:

Neither of us exchanged words during the long drive, which i liked because i didn't want to talk to this random stranger. He hasn't even told me his name yet. The sound of my rapid heartbeat and heavy breathing was all to be heard. He noticed this and placed his hand onto my thigh. I didn't react just stared out the window waiting for this to be finally over. A sudden realisation hit my head, HOW THE FUCK DID HE KNOW WHERE I LIVED? Extreme panic rushed through my body as i looked over at him.

"H-how do you know where my house is?" I stuttered.

His head moved facing me in a swift motion. "Because i was out on a jog one day and saw you outside near a house so im guessing its where you live, right?" He explained, confidently and without hesitation. Part of me believed him so i tried my hardest to flush out all the worries. Maybe he's genuinely a nice guy and is trying to help me?

"Mhm." I nodded. I had no reason not too believe him. He was just trying to help me get home safe right? "Oh, Do you live near here? Ive never seen you around before." I asked, trying to get rid of the awkward silence, even though i still had. alot of fear bundled up inside of me. Maybe if i was nice to him he wouldnt try anything.

"Yeah, I just hardly leave my house." He laughed. I just nodded and turned back to look out the window. My panic was slowly decreasing and i kind of felt safe with him.

10 minutes had passed and I finally caught sight of my house. It was an average sized house, 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, with a cute small garden. My mother loved decorating the house so it was filled with ancient antiques and her homemade knitted blankets. He parked the car onto the side of the road opposite my house. I turned to face him.

"I guess thanks.." I mumbled, waiting for him to unlock the doors.

He just send me a short cold smile and pressed the unlock button. Without hesitation, I practically leaped out the car after lunging the door open but before i could escape he grabbed my arm making me look back towards him.

"If I find out you told anyone about me.." He tightened his grip on my arm. "Trust me Isabella something will happen."

My eyes widened slightly at the sound of my name. "H-how do you know my name?" I tried thinking of any ways he could of found out. Maybe he was a student at my college? No, he looked way too old for that. Maybe he just stumbled across my social media..

He laughed. "Oh.. I know a lot about you babygirl. Don't you want to know mine?"

My stomach had butterflies from the nickname he just gave me. Holy fuck Isabella nows not the time this stranger is a fucking physco. "Ok? I guess.." I replied, not knowing what to say.

"Jack. Jack Robinson." He let go of my sore arm. "See you soon babygirl." He winked at me.

I closed the car door and ran towards my house door, furrowing my eyebrows thinking about what he meant by "see you soon." but I decided to simply ignore it. Lifting the plant pot up and grabbing the spare key, I unlocked the door quickly. Before walking inside, I looked back to see his car already gone. Phew.

Since I arrived, I had showered, got dressed and eaten some food. Now i was laying across the couch and watching netflix on the TV. No one was home yet, my parents were both at work late tonight. I hadn't really thought about the whole situation with Jack but i decided to just forget it ever happened, considering his threat. I slowly felt my eyes drifting off to sleep as i yawned and got comfy on the couch.

A few hours later...

Loud knocking suddenly ringed my ears as i shot my eyes open, rubbing them from being exposed to the light to quickly. I glanced over at the clock above the TV to see it was nearly midnight. Who would be knocking at the door at this time? My parents would of just used their keys or maybe they lost them.

Cautiously, I waddled over to the front door and saw a dark figure through the tinted glass. Opening the door, I was met with those fimaliar, dark green eyes and that handsome, perfect face.
