Lewis told the others all about Ophelia's ex-boyfriend Scott.
She met him at a party for a film, they got on very well very quickly and did something together.
Ophelia felt comfortable and finally safe as her parents had not long passed away at that time.
They were the perfect couple, at least it seemed so. Ophelia was good at hiding when she wasn't feeling well, but never let the others notice and always pretended to be happy.  She didn't want to believe that Scott wasn't the right one after all. But when she found out she was pregnant by him, everything changed, Scott changed. He became more and more aggressive and bossy towards Ophelia and didn't allow her anything. As far as I know, she let him do it for a while until she couldn't take it anymore and fought back. This of course had its consequences and Ophelia suffered greatly, she had been so looking forward to the child even if it was unplanned, but now she realised as much as she loved the child she did not want this to be her father. She went through hard times with Scott until she finally managed to separate and get away from him. He didn't like it, of course, but Ophelia did everything she could to make sure he never came near her again.

Everyone looked at Lewis after his words. Silence reigned between the group.

,,Ophelia never told us anything about it" Luisa said quietly and looked around.

,,Because she wanted to forget the past... but he found her anyway and that's not good, I don't want to imagine what he's capable of" Lewis stood up and looked at the others.

,,I might have an idea where he's hiding her" he put on his sunglasses and the others followed him.

Together they drove their sporty cars to the place where Lewis led them.

Ophelia's Pov:

I looked around with eyes filled with tears. Never in my life have I felt so broken, I could literally feel the strength leaving my body and I was about to give up. But a tiny piece of hope inside me told me to keep fighting. I had only been trapped here for two days, but those two days were worse than anything else. I didn't even know who had kidnapped me and why he was doing all this to me.
My head was pounding and my pulse was racing.
I looked at a door when it suddenly opened.

,,Well my sweetheart, I hope you enjoy your time with me here. Finally being with me again after such a long time. You know, Ophelia, I missed you terribly and I hope you feel the same" I looked at the person silently. What was he talking about? Did I know my kidnapper?
When he came closer and closer to me and got down on his knees in front of me and pulled off his mask, my heart stopped for a few seconds. I was unable to breathe or move. I just stared at him.

,,That's what I call a pleasure to see me again" this person in front of me was none other than my ex-boyfriend scott. He took my face in his hand and pulled it towards him. I felt myself start to shake. I was scared, scared of what he was going to do to me. What I had been through before.

I knew I had to face him. I stared him straight in the eye and did not avoid his gaze.

,,What do you want from me, Scott? I'm no longer the Ophelia who lets everything happen to her and does what she's told" I pulled my face away from him.

,,Are you sure about that? You look pretty weak for that" he grinned.

,,How should I look when a so-called idiot like you kidnaps me and won't leave me alone! I don't belong to you!" I yelled at him. He didn't like that at all and grabbed me by the neck and choked me, making me gasp desperately. I tried to push him away with my arms. But he was just too strong. I struggled to get away from his grasp but it didn't work so I kicked him in the stomach as hard as I could and he loosened his grip and staggered backwards.

I breathed quickly and gasped for air. Scott was writhing on the floor in front of me, in the meantime I tried to pull myself together and find a way out. I quickly ran out the door but at that moment Scott grabbed me by the foot and I fell to the floor.

,,You thought you were getting away from me huh?" he pulled me towards him by the foot. I kicked and tried to kick at him but his body mass and size did not make it easy for me.
,,You fucking asshole!" I hissed.

I had a plan and knowing Scott, I knew it would work. I lay under him on the floor and looked at him stubbornly.
,,I know I don't have a chance, but please don't hurt me..." I looked at him pleadingly, which I hated inside, but I had to do it.

,,I told you that you are still the same as always" he stroked my blond hair out of my face and grinned. I returned his smile and cautiously came closer to him. When our faces were only a few metres apart, I grinned mockingly.
I took the baseball bat he was carrying and hit him on the head, and he let go of me and staggered to the side. I only saw blood slowly dripping from a small wound on his head.
I quickly got up and ran to the door. There were several doors outside, I hurriedly tried to find the right one that led me outside, as it looked like we were in the basement. When I found the right one after several tries, I heard Scott behind me. I turned around frantically and saw him coming towards me. I hurriedly opened the door and ran up the wooden stairs in front of me. I felt something grab me and pull me backwards, I held on to the banister and desperately pushed Scott off me who stumbled and fell backwards down the stairs. When he reached the bottom I looked down at him for a moment before running outside in shock.

Outside, I stopped in shock and crossed my arms in front of my face. I sank to the ground exhausted and noticed tears running down my face. I was so lost in thought that I didn't notice the closer engine noises that suddenly stopped in front of me. I felt as empty as if I were in another world, only now after all the fighting and Scott's successful attempt to run away.

When the sound of the engine stopped and several people got out of the cars and ran towards me, I tried to make out something but my vision was getting paler. They were talking to me and asking me questions, but I almost didn't understand anything anymore. When someone took me in their arms and held me and looked down at me, my eyes closed from exhaustion and I lost consciousness.
