Summer Love // Niall Horan

Chapter 3.1 - The Journey Started

|| ISABELLE ||

I was walking by the lake by myself, looking at the birds flying around, relaxing with the help of the waves of the lake. Everything was peaceful and quiet it's so surreal. But that moment ended when someone pulled my hair from the back, I turned around and saw a girl who turns to be a brunette with blonde streaks. I couldn't figure out the face, but from body structure, it turns out she might be some skinny person.

"How dare you!" She yelled at me as she started to pull my hair, more like ripping it apart, while I tried to yank her hands whose nails that was painted in deep red away from my scalp.

"Get away from me!" I yelled angrily, shoving her small framed body with full strength. She stumbled backwards but she was strong enough to steady herself and walk towards me.

"Stay away from him!" She yelled back and start pushing me backwards. Confusion drives me insane as I figured out who is she talking about. The last time I remembered I have a boyfriend is probably years or months ago.

"Where in the hell are you taking me?!" I snapped, trying to push her prying skinny body away with all the force I have but turns out, even though she has a skinny body, she can be pretty strong for someone like me who is probably has more weight than her.

"A place where someone like you shoudn't be seen or found." She answered and a smirk grew on her face as her hands continue to push my body towards the end of the dock. Now, i know where this is going through and it is not good,

I am already losing my balance and my body is so weak and tired. I can't push the girl anymore from me, since her body is like a rock, hard and painful to touch. My scalp is aching so badly I can feel my hair trying to free itself out of it any minute now. The skin around my shoulders stings so bad from the girl's painted and long nails, I can feel blood drawing out of it.

I look behind me and saw a large body of water, and from my sight, even though it is a lake it has a really deep surface which somehow can kill me.

"Goodbye you little piece of crap." She bids her farewell and lets go of her strong grip in me. She was waving her hand at me in amusement.

I yelped in pain once she let go of me, my voice came out irritating like a fork scratched on a plate, or nails collided with a chalk board. My body collides with the water, making a huge splash. I swim towards the shore, but every time I come out of the water, there is something underneath holding my feet from making it's way to the surface.

She started giving off evil laughs as she watches me drown to my death. I was drowning, and there was nothing I can do but scream all the strength I have in me, but no matter how I tried to scream, water comes into my mouth and as disgusting it is, my mouth swallows it despite the tangy taste. I closed my eyes, sealing the deal with death.

"There they are!" A familiar voice says out loud. I opened my eyes at the sound of a voice who somehow, in this dimension makes me feel safe and protected.

Someone splashed into the water extending his his hand to my direction. I grabbed it fast and hard, not caring anymore of my freezing body. God knows what will happen to me if I stay here in this damn cold water any longer. The mysterious person started pulling me to him, as he carried me like a feather to the dock. I couldn't figure out what he looks like since his face is blurred, just like the girl's.

I am out of breath once I reached the shore, I can't see anything but plain white surroundings. I still could hear the voices in the background, even the mysterious person's voice calling out my name. My body feels so cold when the wind hits the water still present in my body and clothes. I screamed for help once again, before everything was shut.
