The wind whistled through the curtains as our bedroom window was ajar. It was chilly in the room so I leaned out of bad to grab my jacket. I looked at it in the dark. My Cheerios jacket, Huh. I slid my arms inside the arm holes and nestled in closer to Santana's side. She was sound asleep, and I mean it was like 2 o'clock in the morning.

Time ticked on and I still had a weird feeling of uncertainty so I decided to take a walk.

I tiptoed around the room as not to wake Santana up and left to check on the kids.

I creaked the door open and gazed at my two beautiful miracles laying snuggled up in their beds. "I love you" I whispered into the room before closing the door.

The front door slammed shut.

It made me jump even though I was all the way upstairs.

"I always close the door before going to bed" I thought. Who was there?

I checked Santana still asleep as she may have gotten up and closed the front door behind her, but when I checked she was sound asleep. But one thing was amiss. The window was closed.

I was panicking now. I pulled my cheer hoodie over my shoulders and made my way down the stairs. The door was swinging in the wind and there was muddy footsteps in the hall.

"What the-" I whispered, but before I could even say hell two arms came from behind me and tightened themselves around me almost knocking the life out of me in a second. I tried to scream out and kick me legs into the man holding me hostage, but a large hand holding a damp was placed over my nose and mouth making me drift off too sleep.

I tried so hard to continue kicking my kidnapper but the ethanol sunk into my system paralysing my every muscle and slowing the world down to a halt.

In a state of sleep paralysis, the last thing I heard before I completely fainted was "come on get her into the trunk!" And the heavy door shut behind us as the man carried me haphazardly down the path and threw me carelessly into the car boot before driving recklessly into the night.

I rolled over sleepily as I awoke slowly from the cold night.

"Hmm morning honey" I yawned and sat up

"Brittany honey?" I rubbed my eyes and waited for her sleepy reply, but when I heard none I got out of bed to find her.

I slipped on my slippers and walked into the hall.

"Mama mama mama mama!" June cried from the twins room

"That's odd" i thought "if Brittany got up then she would have seen June awake and taken her downstairs

I opened the door to see June bouncing frantically up and down on her bed in distress. Nicky was still asleep.

"Hey baby what's the matter?" I asked whilst walking briskly to sit on her bed next to her.

"Mum there was a man in here and he made me scared!" She said tears down her eyes.
