Kidnapped For Love

Derrik : Chapter Forty-Four

Beth's POV

The ambulance carried Jake into the back and I jumped in behind him. While driving, I held his hand as we drove.

Doctors and nurses in the back started to work on his side trying to get the bullet out of Jake.

"Are you okay?" A nurse asked.

"I got shot on my shoulder." I said pointing at my wound.

"Okay." The nurse said as she started to fix my shoulder.

The nurse got the bullet out and patched me up. It was easy to do since it was my shoulder. We arrived at the hospital and they took Jake into the hospital.

"Ma'am, you have to stay back." The doctor said as they brought him into a room.

I was standing outside the door looking inside the room at Jake. He wasn't moving and looked dead. Crying, I was approached by a nurse.

"I'll take you to the waiting room." The nurse said.

I followed the nurse to the waiting room and took a seat.

"He is in great hands." The nurse said and then left.

Sitting in the chair, I couldn't believe what happened. I decided to call my mom. I went over to a payphone and dialed my mother's number.

Hello?
Hey, mom it's Beth.
Beth? Are you okay?
Yeah, but Jake was shot.
Is he okay?
I don't know.
Beth, I'm so sorry. Do you want to talk to Jane?
Sure.
Hold on.
Hello?
Hey, Jane it's Beth.
Beth? I miss you.
Me too. I love you, Jane. And I will be back soon.
Yay, are you okay?
Yes.
Okay, love you.
Love you too.
Bye.
Bye.

I hung up the phone and went back to my seat. It was taking forever for any information.

After an hour, a doctor came up to me. I braced myself for horrible news.

"Beth Jones?" The doctor said.

"Yes?" I asked.

"Jake is awake right now, you can go see him now." The doctor said which made me so relieved.

"Thank you!" I said with relief.

He led me to Jake's room and I walked in.

"Jake." I said glad I see him.

"Beth." Jake said.

I ran over and hugged him gently since his wound is on his side.

"I love you, Beth." Jake said.

"I love you too." I said crying on his shoulder.

I let go and held his hand.

"Are you okay? Did they fix your shoulder?" Jake asked.

"Yeah." I said as I showed him my bandaged shoulder.

"Good." Jake said.

"Jake, why did you come for me? It is way too far." I said.

"Baby, I will go around the world for you. I will do anything to find you and help you. I love you." Jake said.

I sat beside him and held his hand.

"We're free. Matt and my father are gone." I said crying knowing it is true.

"I know, baby." Jake said smiling.

Looking into his emerald green eyes, I leaned in and kissed him. I pulled back and saw Jake staring into my brown sugar eyes and smiled his beautiful smile.

"You saved me from him." I said quietly to only him.

"Hey, you did the shooting." Jake said.

I smiled at him and rolled my eyes.

"Um, Beth Jones, Jake needs to sleep." A doctor said.

"Oh, um okay." I said to the doctor.

I leaned down and kissed him again.

"Bye, baby." I said to Jake.

"Bye, Beth." Jake said smiling.

Walking out of the room, I didn't know what to do since I'm in Canada.

"Um, Ma'am, What's the nearest hotel?" I asked the lady at the desk.

"The nearest hotel is right down the street. It's called Super 4." The lady said.

"Okay thank you." I said as I went out the door.

I guess I have to walk to the hotel because I'm not getting a ride from a complete stranger. Walking down the street's sidewalk really made my anxiety fly. I got to a crosswalk and pushed the button to walk. It turned green and I started walking. (Like I'm supposed to.) A car flew right by so I quickly backed up.

"Watch where your going!" I yelled at the car.

Shit, it stopped and started to back up. I took my chance running off the crosswalk and heading for the hotel. I looked back and saw the car following me so I tried to see who it was. Oh my gosh, it's Derrick. Looking at the sky, I predicted it was about midnight. I kept running and looking for anyone to help me.

"Help!" I yelled although no one was here to help.

Finally, I reached the hotel and ran in. The car pulled into the parking lot when I got into the doors.

"I need a room, someone is following me right now." I said to the man at the desk.

"Wow, you're Beth Jones!" The man said amazed.

"Yeah, yeah, where is your phone." I asked him watching the door.

"Over there." He said as he pointed to a phone on the wall.

I dialed 911.

Hello, 911 what's your emergency?
Hey, it's Beth Jones and someone is following me and I'm at the Super 4 hotel.
Okay, we will send officers. What does the person look like?
His name is Derrik and he is in a gray car. He has black hair and crystal blue eyes.
Okay, thank you. Officers are on their way.
Okay, thank you.
Bye.

I hung up the phone and turned around to see none other than Derrik. Shit.

"Beth, Beth, Beth, you have been very naughty." Derrik said.

"What the hell is wrong with you???" I yelled at him.

He lifted his coat flap and pulled out a pistol.

"I'm not messing around. Get in my car before the cops get here. You will pay for killing my son." Derrik said which blew my mind.

"Matt said his parents died." I said not believing him.

"Yeah, his stepfather. I am his biological father." He said.

I was trying to stall and I don't know how much longer I can stall.

"Get in the freaking car!" Derrik yelled as he grabbed me and threw me over his shoulder.

*bang*

Derrik shot the man at the desk and went out the door. I flailed my arms and legs and screamed bloody murder but no one was there to help.

"Let me go!" I yelled at him.

"No!" He yelled at me as he threw me in his trunk.

I kept screaming and pounding the trunk's top but it was no use. As the car started, I heard sirens. Derrik sped off and I heard sirens following us.
