Calm Down

Hayes' POV

I looked at Via as I laid her on her bed. She was a mess; there were already bruises forming on her throat where Brent had grabbed her. I brushed her hair away from her face, and checked her pulse. It was weak, but gaining strength. I watched her for any signs of life; as I waited, I rubbed circles on her thin arm. After about three minutes, Via started shaking. Her breathing quickened and tears rolled down her face. Then she sat up and screamed.

Via's POV

After Brent tried to strangle me, I vaguely felt someone pick me up and carry me up some stairs. I was put down on a bed, I could tell from the softness under me. All I could focus on was Brent saying, "Don't bother. You can't get away." Then his face loomed in my mind. "I'm coming back for you. When I do, you'll wish you were dead." I sat up and screamed.

Nash's POV

We had just thrown Brent out, when a girl's scream came from upstairs. We all looked at each other and stampeded up the wide staircase. I was at the front of the pack, and I sprinted down the hall to Via's room where the scream came from. I pushed open the door to find Via in Hayes' arms crying her eyes out with her head on his chest. I stepped out of the doorway to let the other guys in. Cam tried to talk to her, but she wouldn't look at him. Matt stepped forward, and she literally flew into his arms. "Hescomingbackformeimgonnadie!" Via whispered, but we all heard her. Matt rubbed her back and sat down on the bed. "Please, sweetie. Calm down, your going to hurt yourself." She took a deep breath and sniffled. I walked up to the bed, sat next to Matt, and hugged her. She buried her head in my neck. "He's coming back for me and I'm gonna die."

Matt's POV

We all ran upstairs when we heard Via scream. So many different thoughts were running through my head. When I walked into the room Via was crying in Hayes' arms. I stepped forward, and she jumped into my arms. "Hescomingbackformeimgonnadie!" Via whisper-screamed. I sat down on the bed with her in my arms, and rubbed her back. "Please, sweetie. Calm down, your going to hurt yourself." She sniffed. Nash sat down next to me and hugged Via. She wrapped her arms around his neck. "He's coming back for me and I'm gonna die."
