Lucky One (ON HOLD)

Chapter 5

Kate's POV

"Dude, where's the bathroom?" El asked me.

"I was going to ask you the same." I said, laughing.

We both started laughing and stumbled around, still trying to find the loo.

A door banged open to our right and there stood a very bloody Jennifer. That shut both of us up.

"Jen love what happened?" Eleanor freaked out.

She wasn't really up for talking so she fell on the floor, and I started to freak out. I rushed towards her and started to feel for a pulse.

"She's still alive, but only just." my words came out all rushed and broken. "Eleanor, go find the manager, we need help, and lots of it. I'll stay here and try to keep her sane. Just shout if you can't find your way back."

"Okay." Tears started to drip down both of our faces. "Can you call Lou and them so they know whats up?"

"Yes, okay now hurry El!"

She turned around and started to run to the front of the hotel. I took out my phone and I saw my hands were shaking. I quickly pulled up Niall's number and pressed call. I held the shaking phone up to my ear and waited while it rang.

"Weyhey!" I barely heard Niall over the music blasting.

"Niall, I need your help!" I shouted.

"...Kate? Are you okay? What's wrong?" his voice started to rise and I heard the music fading away.

I waited until I didn't hear any music to explain what happened. "You saw the way we left right?"

"Of course." came his answer.

"Then please come find me. Bring the other's too. I need lots of help."

"Okay love. We'll be there in a few minutes." and then he hung up.

I lowered my phone down to my lap and just stared at it. I looked at Jennifer and I tried to see where all that blood was coming from. I turned her over and saw a huge maroon stain in the middle of her dress back. I unzipped it just to see how bad it was. The wound looked like an 'X' and I gasped.

It might have been my imagination, but I swear I saw the bathroom door gently shut just as I turned around.

"KATE!" I heard Niall shout.

"Niall, were are you?" I whipped my head to the sound of his voice.

"Almost there love, just keep on talking."

"Niall, hurry I'm starting to freak out."

"Kate!" I heard him exclaim behind me. I felt his long arms wrap around me from behind and then I just broke down.

"Jen's barely breathin' and I'm... I'm scared, Niall. I swear I just saw someone go through those doors." I sob point at the bathroom doors.

Niall abruptly stands up before I even finished my sentence. He puts his hand in pocket and I gasp. He turns around and shushes me and I put my hand to my mouth. Turning back around, I saw a gun come out of his pocket. My face grimaces as I remember my past.

Flashback~~~~~ 20 years earlier

I felt some drool slip down my faces as I let out a gurgled giggle. My mother laughs and grabs a towel to wipe it all up. I spit up some more and Mom smiled and shook her head

"Kate darling, no boy's want this when you grow older," she said as she wiped me up. "Or maybe it's this baby food I'm giving you.." she trails off and sniffs the baby food. Her face sort of resembled a monster, "Oh god pumpkin, I would give you some real food if could, but I can't." She grunts as she stands up, 8 months pregnant. Her now fourth child. My sister is sitting at the dinning table, working on her Algebra.
