*Chasity's P.O.V.*

Finally, Matthew left the room leaving me and Patrick's grandmother behind.

I finally had the chance to breathe in relief. I only try to sound so brave, but deep inside I'm scared as hell and I'm in a lot of pain. I honestly said that I wouldn't cry, but I can't help it. I want my brother...I want my friends...I want Patrick, I hate how this all came here...It was only supposed to be a five step tasks for me, how can I fuck that up?!

I was pulled from my deep thoughts by Mrs. Stump's rough cough. I looked at her and it seems that she's finally awake. Matthew fortunately, placed her on the small bed just to my left side.

"Mrs. Stump, are you okay?" I asked her. She looked around stared at me in disbelief...and worry?

"Where are we? W-what happened to you?" She asked while directly staring at me. Her hands were tied up and I can see that she's really having difficulties to move. I noticed that she's very pale too. I don't want to think about it, but I feel like this is the result because she was taken from the hospital and stopped to received her daily medications.

I sighed in worry and just told her everything about Matthew. She wasn't that shock, maybe she knew something about this before.

"I'm sorry...I was too late." She suddenly murmured.

"Mrs. Stump, are you really okay?" I asked worriedly, she managed to sit up on the bed and gosh she looked like she's going to collapse any minute.

"I was probably taken here because I told Elaine to cancel the wedding. I want to re-do this. You were right, I've become selfish. I thought I was saving Patrick, but I only made it all worse." She said and I looked at her.

She wanted to stop the wedding...out of all people, I thought she'll be the last person to stop the wedding...but I guess I was wrong.

"Y-you what?" I asked, still dumb-founded.

"You're brave, Ms. Parker, courageous to keep on fighting for what you want. You're interesting, intelligent and funny...Patrick's ideal girl. I'm very sorry my dear, I only did this because I was threatened back then too...by him. He said he'll ruin my grandson's life if I didn't push this wedding. Matthew was close to me back then, I tried talking to him out of this mess, but he was already full of hatred." She explained. "I'm really sorry, Chasity. I was too late now...I would give anything to turn back time." She added.

I averted my eyes from her and looked down to the ground. I laughed emotionless at myself.

"Unfortunately, even you give everything...turning back time will never be a possibility here. Let's face the fact that we're trapped here until Patrick marry Elaine and I have no idea if we have the chance to survive." I said negatively to her. "But first things first, we need to get you back to the hospital." I looked at her again and she smiled at me.

"I'm so ashamed of myself for being rude to you, dear. But to be honest, you really got my attention when I first saw you...even under Chase's identity. You knew how to think and fight for what you want." She said and she's losing her breath now.

Silence emerged between us and it was only broken by her rough and husky coughs. I looked at her, she's obviously having more difficulties in breathing.

"M-Matt! Matthew!!!" I bellowed because Mrs. Stump's cough is getting worse.

I struggled so hard to free myself from this chair to go to her, but I just managed to drag myself near the bed.

"Mrs. Stump, hold on. J-just breathe." I said stupidly. I don't know what to do! I'm already panicking here too. "MATTHEW!!!" I shouted.

"Such a good heart." She said to me. Her eyes were tearing up too, I don't want to accept where this is going. "I am truly sorry and I hope you will forgive me for the stupid decision I made...now I pay the price." She said.

"No...no...no, Mrs. Stump. Hold on, Matthew said he'll take you to the hospital. Please...Matthew!" I shouted once more, but then Patrick's grandmother looked like she doesn't care anymore to that.

"Tell my grandson that I love him so much and I'm so sorry...do everything you must, to save the both of you from this mess." She said and I can't believe my tears fell from my eyes.

She silently laid down to the bed and I hysterically screamed Matthew's name...

"What do you want?!" Finally, he came and opened the door.

"I've fucking called you many times! Hospital!! She needs to be in the hospital! Hurry!!!' I said on the top of my lungs and I saw that Matthew became pale too.

"I...I..." he said and immediately picked up Patrick's grandmother.

"Hurry!!! Bring her to the hospital! Please! This doesn't need to happen!" I shouted.

"Don't make any wrong move when I'm gone!" Matthew said and closed the door behind again, leaving me isolated there.

I can feel my blood is running in my veins and my head and heart throbbing so much. My wrists are burning because of the friction from the rope. I want to struggle more, but I can't. I can't believe that I witnessed that...I don't want to accept what happened, but what else can I do?!

Sometimes I just want to ask anyone...how did I get here?

********************

*Patrick's P.O.V.*

"Patrick! Your grandmother is in the emergency room!" Joe shouted and I don't know how fast I ran towards the emergency room after he said that.

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Stump, but you're grandmother has...

"No! No! No! No!" I said and I think my sanity is flying away.

"Her lungs failed to function from the sudden stop of intake of the medication. I am so sorry. I send you my most sincere condolences, please excuse me." The doctor said and I was thankful that my best friends are around me.

"Who brought her back?!" Pete asked and I was thankful that he did. I think I lost the ability to anything now.

"She was just found in the garden of the hospital. It's probably Matthew. We have to call the police! Chasity's still in his hands!" Andy said in panic.

"No...please...if we call the police, h-he could do things to her. Please, I'll go insane of something happens to her. Let's just follow what he said...please...please." I pleaded to them and its look like that's what they want to do too.

"I'm very sorry, Patrick. Just don't forget that we're here for you and we'll always be here." Pete said and I was so thankful for them.

Everything seems to be slipping away from my hands just when I get the chance to hold them.
