CHAPTER 13: Playing in the rain

I went out of my room when I heard a crashing sound coming from my kitchen...My heart skips a beat. Who the fuck could that be? My parents ain't home, I didn't call Niall nor Skylar to come over.

It only means one thing, it could be a burglar. Just like at the Home Alone movie. I went back inside my room. It's the only way to protect myself.

I curled up on the side of my room moving back and forth. The rain was still pouring but not as hard as a while ago. After minutes of catching my breaths, I decided to call Niall.

He's my only hope. I went to my contacts to find Niall's name then pressed the 'call' button. It took two rings before he could pick it up.

"Hey Jade!" He says cheerfully. I was still panicking about whoever is down my kitchen. I took a deep sigh before respoding to Niall.

"Oh..uhm.. hey Niall" I say with an apprehensive tone. He knows something wrong is happening by the way I talk. I'm used to being alone, but there's someone downstairs that bothers me.

"Jade, are you alright?" He asks in a soft angelic way. There was another crash heard from downstairs before I could even reply to Niall. "What was that Jade? Who's with you? What's happening? Are you okay? Are you hurt?" He continues. His questions bombarded my mind. I'm glad to have a loving and caring boyfriend.

"No, I'm not fine. I'm kind of scared, Niall. I've been hearing this crashing sounds since a while ago. I don't know what to do. My parents aren't home with me because they said they were assigned to a certain place for the whole week. What if the person downstairs finds me then kills me. I just want to feel your presence. I want to be wrapped around your warm arms. They just make me feel safe. I want you here. I want you to be here...by my side." What. The . Fuck.

Why did I just say that? He can't come here through this rain, stupid. Ugghh.. I'm such an idiot. But still, I really want him by my side. 

"I'll be there... Just calm down. Pray. Have faith in God. I promise to you, nothing bad will happen."  There was a long pause until her continues. "I love you" He says then hangs up. After minutes of waiting, the crashing sounds are no longer to be heard. Even though they are no longer to be heard, I was still hyperventilating.

Still waiting for my knight and shining armor to arrive and save me until I heard a know on my door. My room door. I started to panick again. I just remembered that I didn't lock my door when I went back inside my room.

How stupid can I be? What if that's the killer or burglar or whatever he/she is ready to kill me. I started crying knowing it would be my end. I wasn't even ready to leave. Sobs started to come out from me.

The door knob twists slowly. I slid under my bed to hide. Like on movies but the killer still finds them. I tried to cover my mouth so I won't make any noise as possible. The person started walking in my room. Those shoes were familiar. I just don't know where'd I see those. 

"I'm too late..." The person mumbles. It was the cute irish voice that I always wanted to hear. He started kneeling then seats down. He lays down on the floor facing the other direction from my bed. He had blonde hair. "Niall..." was the word from my mouth. I think he heard me because he turns to his back to see me under the bed crying.

"Jade!!!!!" He says cheerfully with a bit of nervouseness. He helps me get out from under my bed. No words came from my mouth so I started hugging him like it would be the last time that we would see each other. He hugs me back as tight as I did. I felt his warm hug.
