Your P.O.V.

—---------------

We've been on the road for a few hours and I'm the only one who's still awake. I look at the boys, mostly Bill, and I smile. I'm so glad that they found me and accepted me. I decide that since this ride isn't gonna end anytime soon I'm just gonna take a nap until the ride is over.

I wake up to the feeling of someone shaking me. I look up and it's Bill.

"We've stopped at a rest area do you need anything?" I nod and get up. It's dark out but the rest area is lit up. I head in to use the bathroom and I head back out to the tour bus but I'm stopped by someone grabbing my arm. I turn expecting one of the boys but this is definitely not one of them. I see the glint of a knife in their other hand and I freeze. I can't see their face in the dark but their voice I recognize. It's Carla.

"So you're the one they've been so protective of. You can't have them they're too perfect for you!" She goes to stab me but I move out of the way, she still cut my arm but I'd rather get a cut than die. My instincts kick in and I yank my arm out of her grasp and book it. She grabs my hair stopping me so I shout.

"Someone help!" She yanks my head back shouting in my ear.

"No one is gonna save you!" I start to cry from the pain and from what she said to me. She's right I'm just some stranger to them they're gonna get rid of me the moment they don't need me around. The blade gets closer to my neck and I start to cry harder then I hear loud footsteps coming closer like someone is running towards us. I hear Carla cry out in pain then I hear the knife drop. Her grip on my hair loosens and I hear a second set of footsteps come over and I'm pulled into a hug, a very familiar warmth washes over me and I realize Bill and Georg came to my rescue. I hold onto Bill as tight as I can sobbing on him.

"We thought that the stalking was bad but this? Carla you've managed to make enemies out of us today." Bill holds me tighter. I hear Georg speak to someone else.

"Call the cops this has gone too far." I hear Gustav on the phone probably talking to the cops. I feel an extra hand on my back and I assume it's Tom. I don't even want to look up I'm so scared. I hear Bill whisper in my ear.

"Are you okay to walk mien schatz?" I shake my head not even wanting to look up at him.

"Okay, I'm gonna let go but only for a second." I reluctantly let go of him and I hear him turn.

"Okay now get on my back." I do as he says and bury my head into his shoulder. He carries me back onto the bus and sets me down only now noticing the cut on my arm he looks pissed for a moment before a gentle expression settles on his face once more. He gets up and opens a cabinet and pulls out a first aid kit. He sits next to me pulling out some disinfectant and a bandage.

"This may sting a little." He put some disinfectant on a cotton swab and starts to clean the cut. I hiss at the pain and he rubs my other arm in a soothing manner to comfort me. He grabs the bandage and puts it over the cut as gently as possible. Once he's finished he puts the first aid kit away and he sits back down next to me. He pulls me into his arms again and strokes my head.

"I'm so sorry I wasn't there sooner." I shake my head.

"You couldn't have known." I hear the others get back and walk over to us. I hear Tom speak first.

"Did she hurt you at all?" I show Tom my arm.

"You should have knocked her ass out." I look up at Tom when he says that. Georg shakes his head.

"I was just trying to get her off of (Name) twisting her wrist was the easiest way since she was holding onto their hair." Tom sighs and looks over at me.

"We're so sorry we had no idea she's been following us." I shake my head.

"You guys had no idea, I had no idea. We could never have predicted this happening." The manager gets on the bus and comes up to me.

"Do you think you could tell the police what happened?" I nod and look at Bill.

"Can Bill come?" He nods and Bill stands up with me taking my hand. We walk out of the bus to where a cop is waiting for us.

"Can you explain what happened to you?" I nod and begin explaining everything tearing up a little as I do. Bill squeezes my hand to comfort me. The cop jots down everything and tells us we can go. I nod and we head back to the bus I sit down with Bill and I lean into him. I just need someone close to me. I can barely believe this is real. Bill wraps his arm around my shoulder and strokes my arm. I slowly fall asleep as he holds me.

I know I'm safe with him.
