Callie's POV:

"Callie!" Jude shouts.

"Shh we don't have much time. I have to get you out of here."

"Hurry! I saw he had a gun" Jude said trying hard not to cry.

The second I undo the ropes that are keeping Jude tied up, I hear footsteps in the house. I quickly pick Jude up and run to the back door and out of the house. "Hey!" I hear behind me, coming from a voice I never thought I would hear again. I turn and see Liam running after me.

"Callie!" Brandon shouts when he sees me. "Come on!"

Then all of a sudden, I hear a click and see Liam behind us, only about ten yards, holding up a gun. "Callie, I only did this to get your attention. I miss you"

I stare straight into his dark eyes, shaking my head. "I don't miss you or-" but I'm cut of by the sound of police sirens.

Shocked, I turn my head and see Stef and other officers holding up gun shouting for Liam to put his hands up.

Terrified, he does as told and I watch him get handcuffed and put into a car.

Stef runs up and hugs me and Jude and then Brandon, saying "thank you for telling me. You guys could have been seriously hurt."

I lift my eyebrow and walk over to him. "I'm sorry" he begins, "I texted her when we got to the beach. I was afraid of what he might do. I didn't think I was enough to protect you and Jude and I couldn't stand the thought of anything happening to you guys"

I look at him for a few moment before finally hugging him. "Thank you."

"By the way" I begin," your drowning sounded very realistic"

He smiles with a schoolboy grin and we begin walking back to the car.
