Running Alive

Chapter 2.4

In the night... All of them are still silenced of what happened. No one was speaking. No one... Then...

Niall: *turns to Julia* So what?

Julia: What are you talking about?

Niall: What do you like in a guy?

Julia: Hmm... Someone that has an attitude like you. Funny, cute and good *smiles*

Niall: *whispers to himself* Great! That will help.

Julia: What?

Niall: Nothing *smiles*

Julia: Ookay.. *looks confused*

Then Julia turned to Zayn, who was a bit serious.

Julia: What's wrong Zayn? Something bothering you?

Zayn: Nothing it's just that, I'm really shocked of what happened.

Julia: Ohh, is that it? Come here. *hugs Zayn*

Zayn: *blushes* Ohh thanks. *hugs her back*

Julia: *withdrews* Are you feeling better now?

Zayn: Yeah.

Liam: Dang it! We almost had that for us to have a place to stay! *drinks a bottle of wine while driving*

Calum: Come on, Liam you're driving, man. You don't want an accident, right?

Liam: Fine... *throws the bottle out the window*

Then there was silence. It lasted for a couple of minutes. Ashton decided to play the radio and the song was 'Little Things' then...

Julia: *yawns*

Zayn: Are you sleepy?

Julia: Yeah, I'm tired.

Zayn: Well, you can sleep on my shoulders if you wa-

He stopped when he felt Julia's head on his shoulder and her arms wrapped around him. He smiled at her and whispered to her ear...

Zayn: Sleep tight, beautiful.

Then Ghiel and Luke...

Ghiel: It's been a very rough day, isn't it?

Luke: Yes.

Ghiel: When will this all end? I'm sick of this. I don't wanna see people dying. I wanna have a normal life.

Luke: All of us want that too. But, we don't have a choice. We have to survive.

Then Joyce and Connor are listening to music. Sandra and Michael are talking about some stuff, Then hours later, they are awaken by a sudden stop.

Niall: What's wrong, Liam?

Before he could answer, a group of six guys ambushed them and beat them up except for Julia because she is sleeping. Then they forced them to get out and follow them to a prison.

Ghiel woke up with a blurry sight. Her head hurts from what happened a while ago. She pulled herself together and realized that she's inside a prison cell along with her friends. She saw them down on the ground. She woke them up when...

Ghiel: Louis, Liam, Harry... Wait.

Harry: What is it?

Ghiel: Where's Julz?

Luke: What?

Ghiel: Julz is not here! The last time I saw her she was sleeping! Shit, I hope those guys didn't see her.

???: You really think so, huh?

She was startled by a man's voice. She looked outside the cell and she saw a girl sitting on a chair, tied up and blindfolded.

Ghiel: Is that..?!

Zayn: Julz!

???: That's right. You think I'll miss one? *smirks*

Ghiel: Who are you?! Let her go!!

???: I'm James. Right Harry? *turns to Harry* *crooked smile*

Ghiel: *confused* What the..?! Harry! You know this guy?

Harry: They're the guys we're avoiding, Ghiel. Those bandits.

Ghiel: *gasps*
