Secret Talents (Major Editing)

Chapter 24

Sam's P.O.V.

Lauryn and I were in a van and it was completely dark! I couldn't see anything!

"So..." A raspy voice whispered in my ear. I was confused as to who was right in my face, but I couldn't see them. Then it hit me, I remember that voice. It was Brayden. All of a sudden the van came to a stop and the light in the van turned on. I saw Brayden and Hunter sitting across from Lauryn and I. I went to go move my arms,but I couldn't.

"You and your friend aren't going anywhere." Hunter growled at us. I felt something around my ankles and my wrists. They tied us up! I turned my head to Lauryn she looked at me and started screaming and crying. Hunter went over to her and wrapped a cloth around her head and stuffed the front in her mouth.

"Shh! Be quiet babe don't want to get your friend hurt do you?" Hunter asked her looking at Brayden then me. Brayden came over to me and put a knife to my neck. I started to cry quietly, but couldn't. I let out little peeps of fright and was looking and a crying Lauryn in front of me. "Look at her! Look! Do you want that to happen?" Hunter yelled in Lauryn's ear. She just sat there crying. He pulled her hair and asked again. "Do you?" Even louder than the last time. She shook her head no still crying. "Okay then shutup!" He yelled. All I could do was cry and hope we didn't die.

"C'mon Hunter, stop being mean and let's get to it!" Brayden said to Hunter still holding the knife to my neck. Hunter nodded his head then all of a sudden I felt lips touch my jaw line very roughly. I tried to pull away, but he then held the knife closer to my neck. I stopped my resistence and felt his lips hit my jaw line again. I looked over at Lauryn who's shirt was already ripped open and had red marks all over her neck I could see the terrified look in her eyes as they began to tear up. Brayden continued to my neck and loosened his grip on the knife. I took advantage of the moment and elbowed him right in the 'boy parts'. He moaned in pain and I jumped at Hunter, who was too interested in Lauryn to notice me, and I wrapped my hands around his neck. I used the rope to help pull him off of Lauryn. I spun him off her on as he fell toward Brayden I heard a thump. I looked down and saw a gun I jumped on it and held it up at the two guys. I backed up to Lauryn, still facing them and assured her she was okay. Brayden moved toward me and I pulled the trigger scared for my life!

"Ahhhh!!!!!!" I screamed waking up from the worst nightmare ever! I felt hands grab my shoulders and I quickly pushed them off and jumped off the bed. I crawled over to the corner and started crying into my hands.

"Sam calm down! What's wrong?" Zayn's familiar British accent asked. I saw him pass the light coming through the window from the full moon and coming over to me. I continued to cry as he finally made his way over to me.

"It was... I was... And then... He..." That was all I could get out between my sobs. He sat next to me on the wall and pulled me onto his lap and I snuggled into his chest. I kept on crying thinking if the nightmare I had.

"Shhh it's okay. No one's going to hurt you. I won't let anything happen to you. You're safe right now here in my arms. I love you." He whispered to me as he rocked me in his arms.

"I love you too." I sniffled looking up at him. He looked a little relieved after seeing me in such a horrid state just a few moments ago. He took one arm from around me and wiped my cheeks with his soft hand. I smiled as he rubbed my cheeks. I grabbed his hand in mine small one and kissed all over the back of his hand. He laughed and kissed my forehead. We sat there for a little longer. Zayn started singing into my ear to ease my horrible nightmare. He sang Give Me Love by Ed Sheeran. Then all of a sudden Harry slammed open the door and I jumped from Zayn's arms and let out a yelp as the door slammed into the wall.

"What's going on in here?" Harry yelled with concern. I saw Lauryn peek her head out from behind him. When she saw the condition I was in she pushed pass Harry and came running at me tears in her eyes. She crouched down next to me.
