A Dark Past (Jack and Finn Harries Fanfiction)

Chapter 2

Starting my new life in London really helped. Although I was no longer able to go to my therapist, my mum said she found a new one that one of her friends recommended. Her name is Micki. Which seems like a pretty laid back name.

Because I haven't been in school for the past four years, my mom enrolled me in community college, right near our house. It was only about a ten minute walk from the house, I decided I would walk. I need to get my life normal again.

My first class was in half an hour, so I left my house, just in case I got lost.

I put in my headphones and started walking as normally as possible, I did not want to draw any attention towards my self.

As I was turning the corner, and ready to cross the street, a car stopped right in front of me, and my stomach dropped to my feet. Thoughts kept racing through my head. I was truly convinced I was going to get kidnapped again.

"Excuse me. Do you know how to get the 7th and Main?" A boy around my age asked, and there was another one on the drivers seat, with a very odd expression on his face.

My heart was racing as I relived the day I was taken.

~Flashback~

What a boring day at school. And I have tons of homework. How lovely.

The walk from the bus stop to my house was about five minutes, so I plugged in my head phones and walked with my head down. I felt like someone was watching me, so I looked up. There it was. A white car stopped right next to me. The man in the front seat rolled down his window.

"Excuse me? Do you know how to get to Ashbury Drive? I'm a little lost." He stated.

I walked closer to the car and started talking. "Yea. You have to turn around and turn left on.." I looked down and saw him fiddling with something. "Turn left on Sumn.."

Then black.

~Flashback over~

My feet froze to the ground. My mind was telling me to run for my life, but I just couldn't move. The boy in the front seat asked again.

"Uhh. Hello? Do you know where 7th and Main is?"

All I managed to do was shake my head. I feel so dizzy.

*Jacks POV*

The look on this girls face was starting to scare me. She looked like she's seen a ghost. Her eyes showed extreme horror, and her face was super pale.

All I did was ask her directions.

Marcus turned to me. "Jack, lets go."

I ignored him and turned to the girl again. "Uhh. Hello? Do you know where 7th and Main is?"

She just shook her head and started to slowly back away.

"Are you alright? You don't look too well love." I don't know why she was so afraid. I'm not scary looking. At least I don't think I am.

"I'm fine.." she whispered. Her voice was small and shaky. She sounded truly terrified. "I have to go," she said louder, but still shaky. She turned around and started walking away quickly.

"What was that about?" Marcus said and I turned towards him. "She looked genuinely afraid of you mate."

"I have no idea. Lets go, there are more people up there. Lets get one of them." Marcus drove off and we continued making our video.

That girls face still lingered in my mind. I have to find her again. I need to know why she was so terrified.

Marcus dropped me off at my house. I walked inside, greeted my mum and walked upstairs.

"Finn, wanna help me edit this new video I did with Marcus?" Finn was laying on his bed looking at his computer.

"Sure."

He got up and walked to my room and plopped down on the couch.

I pulled out the camera and plugged it in to the computer downloading all of its contents. Me and Finn watched the video and we were both laughing.

"Jack! That girl is quite fit!"

I looked at the screen and saw the terrified girl. She looked even more pale on camera.

I looked at Finn. "Yea she is. But when I asked her directions, she looked scared of me."

We were interrupted by my mum walking throughout the door. "Boys, dinner is ready." She looked down at the screen and looked at the girl. "That poor girl, she looks horrified. What did you do to her Jackson?"

"Nothing. She had that look on her face when we pulled up to her." I said to my mom who was studying the screen.

"She looks very familiar. Hmmm... Oh! I know! That's Marley Davis!"

"Who is that?" How did my mum know her name?

"She was kidnapped about four years ago. She was kept in his basement for three years before she escaped." I can't believe this. "I read the news article all about her disappearance. She was 14 when she was taken, she was walking home from school when a man asked her for directions, when he put chloroform on a cloth and put her in his trunk. She suffered tremendous abuse and was malnourished. She got a box of food to last her a week. It's disgusting what that man did, he deserves to rot in hell. And the think, you buys were only a year older than her. Of anything like happened to you guys or your sister, I don't know what I'd do."

I felt numb. No wonder this girl was so afraid of me. I pulled up to her and asked her for directions, the same way the guy who took her did.

I need to find her again. I don't want her to think I or any guy is dangerous.

Me and Finn looked at each other, he had the same look on his face as I did. We both looked at mum. She was still staring at the screen.

"I'm sure you scared her to death pulling up to her," she stated, "well come on guys, dinner time."

She walked out of the room leaving me and Finn in silence.

Finn broke the silence by saying, "She still is a fitty."

"Yea. I need to see her again."

"I'll go with you to see her again. I want to see her too, just in case you scare her again, I can comfort her." He had a cheeky grin on his face. I hit his shoulder, and got up to walk down stairs to eat.
