adopted-chapter 28

i screamed loudly, but johns hand went over my mouth, muffling and quieting the rest of my noises. he taped my mouth and roped my hands, as i struggled and tried to scream out, for anyone, who were just sitting a few meters away.

john finished tying my wrists and put a note on the car seat, before picking me up and taking my quickly to his car

"shut up or ill knock you out"

i didnt listen, and kept making the loudest noises i could.

"you asked for it" john said raising a baseball bat, making me scream louder.

he gritted his teeth and swung the bat. the round wood was the last think i saw before i was out cold



NIALLS POV

em just got up to go to the car and dani and perrie got up too

"im sorry guys, please tell em i love her, ive got to go to urgent meeting" perrie said hurriedly, pecking zayns lips.

"and my mum wants me to pick up my cousin from school, which ends in exactly 3 minutes now, so, yeah, im so sorry!"

we laughed at them as they ran off to go attend to their urgent issues. faintly, i heard a scream behind us. my head span around immediately. nothing seemed wrong, but i couldnt see em anywhere

"niall you ok?" liam asked and I stood up

"i head a scream" i said causing everyone to look up all at once. in other circumstances it might have been funny.

el got up and started to follow me to the car. we came around the corner and em was no where to be seen, and there was a not sitting on the carseat. el ran and got it first, and i read it over her shoulder

'shes mine now.


thanks for the free coke by the way

-john'

there was blood smeared on the edge of the paper, still fresh.

el was panicking and saying "no no no" under her breath

"GUYS!" i yelled to the others, freaking out myself

they ran over, and one look at the note was enough to make all the boys faces pale dramatically.

"we have to find her!" zayn said immediately

"well we dont know where she is!" harry replied

"obviously genius! FIND her!" zayn snapped, both of them getting angry with worry.

"how do we do that is we dont know where to look!"

"STOP guys! we need to do this properly!" i yelled, their eyes softening and looking apologetic

"so, what do we do?" ed asked

lou, who had been the palest of us all, and looked worse than worried sick, finally spoke up, in a small voice

"remember one of the first times we were with em and we asked her more about john. it was only me, harry and el who knew, you guys were put somewhere, she said that sometimes john used to take her to an old dodgy house outside of town near an old park? well this seems like the park she was
talking about, and there is an old house about 2kms from here, thats old and dodge and totally sketchy. it would make sense that john went there, he wouldnt think that we would know about his little hideout"

i felt sick thinking about em alone with john in his dodgy hideout

"well we have to go there now!" i said desperately

"we cant! we need a plan! we need something to go off!" harry said

"we cant just leave her!" i said, tears forming. el had tears falling from her eyes, and lou looked lost, standing there quietly

"lets just go home and we can think this through, we dont even know exactly where she is" el said and liam nodded

"come on nialler, lou, we will save her, shes ok" liam tried to reassure us, but with no luck.


we eventually got in the car and let liam drive us home. i spent the car trip with my head on lou's shoulder, not know what to think or what to do.

we got home and lou basically carried me inside. we all were at loss of what to do, but whatever we decided on, we had to stick together. em had her phone on her as far as we knew, which was kind of reassuring, especially if it was on her and not flat. i was just sitting and thinking about how to go about it all, when zayn came and sat next to me on my bed.

"nialler?" he said softly

"yeah zaynie?"

"im scared" i didnt say anything back. i knew what he felt like. he wrapped his arms around me, wrapped me in a ziall hug.

"we will get her" i said confidently and i felt zayn nod

"i know we will"





EMILIES POV

i woke up to sunlight shining in the old window. there were metal, slightly rusty and fat bars on the outside of the window, that have been there since i first came here. this was usually my room when we had our little "holiday". its now officially been a whole night that ive been here. it was colder than usual, and scarier for some reason. being my room though, had perks. id hidden a big nail in a box hidden in the hole in the wall, covered by the wardrobe. the box also had a letter from my mother. i found it here the 5th year i came, so i kept it here as a reminder to stay strong. i knew my mother went through what i go through with john, maybe this was her room too. she thought she loved him, that he loved her, that they were a forever couple. then he got her knocked up with me. as soon as i was born his 'nice guy' act vanished and its when he started showing the way he is.

the thing is about my mother, she didnt die because of old age, nothing like that. she had early stages of cancer suspected in her lungs but that didnt kill her either. the thing is about my mom, is she killed herself. john drove her to suicide. i was 8. i knew what suicide was, my mom and i shared everything of course theres school and internet. i remember her kissing my forehead and telling me she loves me more than anything, and to forgive her. i think i kew what she was going to do deep down, but i was confused at the time. i ran upstairs only about 2 minutes after to see her on the floor, pills of all kind in her hand and a few on the floor.

my mom was the best friend i never had. i told her literally everything. i knew she self harmed, i asked and she didnt hide it from me, there were no secrets with us. she explained everything to me, eating disorders, suicide, cutting, everything i wanted to know. losing her was not only losing my mum, it was losing my best friend, my sister, the only person i had left. and she was gone.

in a way, el is kind of like another mom to me. not by papers and legal stuff, by how i trust her like i trusted my mom, how shes never left me, like my mom. but now even el was gone. isnt it funny, how when you think someone you used to think of as innocent ad loving, can be so evil as to take away every last thing that makes you do as little as smile, everything that you need and means more than anything to you. and its gone.
