Lifesaver (A Zarry fanfic)

16. Trapped in a Blizzard

Jessie's POV 5 d

I woke up dizzy. My body ached throughout my arms and legs. Trying to move only made it worse, making me wince in pain. The famous clinking of the chains drove me to tears, all four of them were latched to me. I noticed I was laying behind a pool of blood, making me squeal. My stomach felt so wrong at that point, I couldn't move without feeling such sharp pain. That's when I saw the blood smeared on my thighs, making me gasp. I cried hysterically as I backed away from the blood.

"Shut up!" I heard Steven yelled as he entered the room. My eyes widened as I noticed the little girl he was holding a knife to, leading her into the closet. "See, this is what happens if you misbehave." He sneered, pushing her beside me and chaining her up by one leg. He gripped my chin hard and kissed my forehead. "A blizzard is on its way. I've opened all the windows for you to feel the nice breeze of winter. One of you will die from frostbite, or pneumonia." Steven chuckled, obviously not caring. He threw my head to the side, making it bang into the wall. I cried out in agony and just laid on the floor. "Maybe this is what you call cuddling weather." There was a loud thunder that made Steven smile from ear to ear. "It's here. I'll be back in a week, or not." He laughed.

"Wha-What did you do to me?" I cried.

"It's called a threesome. You were asleep and my buddies were just bored. We got kind of rough." He chuckled as I shrieked in horror. He smirked at me before exitting the room, the little girl standing up.

"No! No please! I-I'm so cold!" She screamed, trying to pull off the chains.

"Hey, hey." I softly called to her. She turned and I saw the tears running down her face as she threw herself into my arms. "What's your name?"

"Olivia." She sniffled.

"I'm Jessie. I've been here for a while, but I'm still alive honey. There's no need to cry. I know someone will help us."

"H-How do you know?"

"Because-" I was cut off by a gust of wind that sent immense shivers throughout my body and making both of us yelp. The room was terribly cold and getting dark by the minute. "Because I-I know a boy n-named Harry who saved m-me whenever I needed help, n-no matter wh-what."

"Is he coming for us now?" Olivia was able to withstand not stuttering because I was huddled and basically hiding her from the rough cold wind that entered.

"I-I hope so." There was another loud boom of thunder that make the whole house shake. By the amount of wind coming in and out of the house with all the windows opened, unlike other houses, I was afraid it would all collapse on us. "Olivia, w-where did you come f-from?"

"He adopted me."

"Do you h-have a sister?"

"Yes, but he said he didn't want her." Olivia whimpered, gripping onto my shirt. "Why did he take you?"

"I d-don't know. H-He never to-old me. Steven was a very mean man to me, but I'm not going to let him do the same to you Olivia. I promise."

"What if we die?!"

"We won't! Now c-come, you need to stay w-warm."

"What about you?" She frowned as I tightened my grip around her.

"I'll be fine." I whispered as I noticed the snow and hail start to pour into the room, swirling around and into the hallways. I tried to restrict from shivering but the cold was taking over. "Please Harry." I whispered to myself before kissing Olivia's forehead. This was going to be a harsh day.

Harry's POV

"How could you let her get away, Harry?!" Zayn yelled at me as we quickly entered my house. The blizzard had already knocked down a few street lights and was getting pretty dangerous. "Hell Styles, did you even try?!"
