Hayden's POV

My dad walked around the living room in circles trying to find out where I had gone.

"You can't hide from me!" He slurred.

The tears kept rolling down my cheeks and I tried to stay as quiet as possible.

His footsteps were coming closer and closer to my hiding spot.

"Haha nice try." He said swinging the closet door open.

I jumped and cried harder.

"If you are going to try and get away from me you are going to have to try a little harder next time." He said yanking my hair and pulling me down to the ground.

I let out a cry of pain. "What do you want?" I cried.

"For you to never leave me again." He said.

"Well Im sorry but I just don't think I can do that." I said sternly. I wanted to be brave, but it was extremely hard knowing all the possible outcomes of me being here. My dad could kill me, beat me, rape me. Who knows? All I knew was that things weren't looking so good, and I felt like there was no light at the end of the tunnel.

Suddenly I felt something poke me in my neck. Everything became blurry and I was feeling very tired. What was going on? Seconds later everything went black.

Louis POV

I can't believe I let this happen. Who knows what could be happening to her. She could be dead for all I know.

I am surprised I didn't get in an accident because the tears in my eyes were making everything blurry. I was going about 30 miles over the speed limit, just praying I could find her before the worst happened. I was about two blocks from Hayden's house.

When I pulled into her street there were about three police cars an two ambulances.

Oh god I thought to myself. Please be okay please be okay I begged.

I parked the car and ran up to Rebecca who was standing by her own car on the other side of the road in tears.

"What happened? Is she okay?" I asked frantically.

"I don't know they just got here about 5 minutes ago. They are checking the house." She cried nervously.

Just then a police man walked out if the back screen door of Hayden's dads house. He began walking over to us, and by the expression on his face, I wasn't sure if our conversation would be overly pleasing.

"Did you find her? Where is she?" I asked him.

"There isn't anybody in the house." He said calmly.

"What the hell do you mean nobody is on the house?" Rebecca yelled.

"It's empty. Whoever was in that house left in a hurry." He said again.

"How are we supposed to know where she is? She could be dead!" I cried.

"We are searching the house now for evidence but for now you will have to be patient. Don't worry we will find her." He said patting my shoulder.

"We better find her! Isn't that your damn job!" I blurted out.

"Calm down son, we are doing everything we can. Now here let me ask you a few questions." He spoke.

"I...uh...ok." I muttered.

"Alright, now what is your relationship with the victim?" He asked with his pad and pencil in his hand.

"Her name is Hayden. Don't call her the victim." I said quietly.

"Alright, what is your relationship with Hayden?" He asked again.

"I'm her boyfriend. We have been going out for a couple months." I answered.

"Ok, now did you know of a precious issue with the victim, I....mean...Hayden's father?"

"Yes..." I spoke softly, not being able to think of anything else to say.

"And why want this issue previously reported?" He asked.

"I wanted to tell someone ok?!" I yelled.

"But Hadyen was afraid of he dad coming after me in revenge!"

"You think I wanted to just sit back and watch her be tortured? No! I took her into my home, and kept her away from him as much as possible! Don't make this sound like my fault because it sure as hell isn't!" I screamed. The tears were flowing now, and my hands were tangled in my hair.

"I think we're done here." I said sternly and walked away from the cop.

I collapsed in the grass and bawled my eyes out. This can't be happening.

"Louis they are going to find her, don't worry." Rebecca said in my ear hugging me from the side.

I didn't answer her. I just kept crying. Suddenly I felt my phone buzz.

NEW TEXT FROM: HAYDEN

I looked up at Rebecca who was looking down at the phone. I'm pretty sure in that moment both of hearts stopped.

"We'll open it!!!" She yelled.

I opened the text as I felt my heart beating faster and faster.

YOU BETTER HURRY. HER TIME IS ALMOST UP.

"You need to show that to the police right now!" Rebecca said grabbing my phone.

I got up and ran across the street with her to the group of cops.

Hayden's POV

I opened my eyes slightly. My vision was blurred just like it was the last time I had woken up.

I blinked quickly again but my vision fist cleared up. All I could see was darkness. Was I blind?

I could hear a car engine and suddenly I felt a huge bump. I flew up a little and landed back on the ground with a thud. I was in a trunk.

We kept driving for a little while and then we came to a stop. I heard a car door open and slam shut. Then I heard footsteps. I quickly closed my eyes and pretended that I was still knocked out.

Then the trunk opened up revealing my even father. He picked me up out of the trunk and as he did so I realized my arms and legs were tied together.

I opened my eyes slightly so I could see what was around. We were in the middle of nowhere. There were no other houses around besides the one we were parked in front of. Just trees.

My dad banged on the door with his foot.

"Brian, open the door." He yelled, alcohol in his breath.

Suddenly the door flew open revealing a large man with beer in his hand.

"Bring her in." he said lowly.

He stepped into the house which was a mess and had the familiar smell of alcohol in the air as well. Then he took me down into the basement. He opened a small door in the corner that was all cement with no windows.

He threw me into the room and closed the door. "Now you be a food good little girl and stay here. Ha, like you could even leave if you tried." My dad laughed out.

I sat up and crawled to what I thought was a corner and began to cry. It was no use trying to escape the ropes that contained me. I could already feel the burns that had made themselves present on my skin.

This will probably be the last thing I see before I die I thought.
