You Got My Love // Aston Merrygold

Part 53

NORMAL P.O.V

I stood up from the floor just as the door opened. It was the next day, just going into the evening.

"So, Alexis, I was wondering what to do with you, I think I got it," he grinned, coming over to me and running a finger down my cheek. Automatically, I flinched away from him. "Don't flinch from me." he snapped, grabbing my arm and forcing me to his chest.

"I thought about it and, why should I let you go? So you can tell the cops on me? Send me to jail and live a happy life?" he said, his grip on me tightening.

"I..." I started before he cut me off.

"No. You're not going to get away. You're not going to be able to tell the police on me. I am not going back to jail and you are not living a happy, perfect life whilst I'm locked away." he said.

"What? So you can kill my first boyfriend, rape me, keep me locked in here away from the person I love and my son? But you don't want to go to jail? Why do it then? Why..."

"Shut up!" he shouted, slapping me across the face before punching me in the stomach making me bend over in pain. "I'm sick of you. I'm done with you. Goodbye Alexis" he smirked, pushing me to the floor. 

I looked up at him just in time to see him pull a box of matches from his pocket along with a piece of paper. He lit the match, put it to the fire before dropping it in the other corner of the room, the paper automatically catching to the other scraps of paper and going up in flames. He smirked at me before turning around and walking to the door. I jumped up and ran to the door just as he slammed it shut and turned the lock.

"NO! LET ME OUT! PLEASE!" I screamed, banging my fists off the door.

"No can do, bye Alexis." He shouted back.

"NO! PLEASE BEN! PLEASE!" I begged, panic building up inside me. He couldn't just set fire to the building, could he? "BEN!" I screamed, banging more on the door, but it's too late, he's probably gone. I ran to the window trying to open it as the fire grew and grew, smoke filling the room more and more, but the window wouldn't budge. Shit. I looked back at the fire which was rapidly growing, would I ever get out of this? There was no way I would get out of here. The fire was building up too fast, the room was getting smokier and hotter.

ASTONS P.O.V

I drove around the edge of London again trying to find at least a clue as to where Alexis is. I drove along a quite/deserted road. It was surrounded by loads of trees. It was like driving through a forest. My mum had Jayden again. I don't think she minds that much since she gets to spend more time with him, but I know she's worried. Everyone is, they've all been looking for her. It's been in the papers, on the internet, everywhere. 

I turned a corner, following another road surrounded my trees. In the distance, there was an old building, smoke was coming from the ceiling. Weird. I parked my car at the side and got out, walking around to see if there was any signs of Alexis. As I got closer to the house, I looked up at it. It didn't look like anyone lived here. Why would a house, with no on living in it be on fire? I could hear the faint noises of someone shouting. It was a females voice. It sounded strangely familiar.

"HELP! PLEASE!" The voice shouted.

Then I realised who it was, who that voice belonged to.

....

Alexis.
