Courtney's POV

I wake up somewhere new. I can't tell where I am because my vision is blurry.

My head is pounding.

I feel uncomfortable.

I feel gross.

Disgusted.

I feel scared to the point where I don't want to get up. I feel too weak to even walk.

"Shh she could be awake." I hear.

Two people walk in and I don't know who they are. (her vision is still blurry)

I scream with tears in my eyes.

"Get away.. G-get away from m-me." I say through tears.

"Courtney it's me Lexi." I hear.

My vision starts to get more clear and it was Lexi. Next to her was Michael.

I sit there shaking.

"How are you?" Michael asks sitting next to me putting his hand on my shoulder.

I quickly take his hand off my shoulder and move away from him.

"Courtney I didn't do anything." He says.

"How would I-I know, I didn't S-see the guys f-face. It could of b-been you." I tell him.

"Courtney, I would never in a million years, ever do that to you." He tells me.

I look away from him.

He sighs standing up and going close to the door.

Lexi looks at me.

"It's okay." She says. "Whoever it was their gone."

"For now." I say.

"Besides Michael, Ashton, Calum, and I were all with each other. We all found you and we were all scared to death. Luke didn't come with us because he had to stay at the hospital." She tells me.

I look over at Michael still not believing either of them.

"She's not going to believe us." Michael says. "I didn't do anything. You're my best friend and I love you. I wouldn't do that." He says leaving the room.

I sigh.

"I hate whoever did this." I say. "I don't feel like myself."

"What do you feel like?" Lexi asks me.

"I feel dead, gross, disgusting, invaded, and weak." I say. "I feel terrible."

"I'm sorry." She says. "This should've never happened to you."

"I wish it never did." I say.

I render it all happening and it gives me chills.

"Are you sure all of them were with you?" I ask.

"I'm absolutely positive." She says.

"Then how am I in new clothing?" I ask.

She raises her hand.

"I promise I didn't look at anything." She says.

I laugh a little.

"There's the laugh I was looking for." She says smiling.

I go under the covers covering half you face.

"I'll leave you to get some rest, but I promise you none of the guys did anything. They all love you so much, and they hope you get better." Lexi says leaving.

I think to myself.

I hear a noise and I flinch. It's just a tree hitting the window.

I can still feel a pain in my shoulder. I can still feel that guy gripping my shoulders.

It scares me that there are people like that.

I never want that to happen to me again. I still hate leaving like that. If he had remembered none of this would of happened.

I can't put my blame on Luke for this. Thad just selfish of me.

It's my fault for leaving. It's my fault from the beginning. If I had never left for New York we probably wouldn't be in this situation.

It's all my fault.

Is it my fault for living? Probably.

Should I be living right now? Probably not.

I start to sob a little.

This is my fault.

"It is your fault." I hear.

I look around seeing no one.

'It's all your fault all of this happened.' Someone says.

'Who are you?' I ask.

'I'm in your head.' I hear. 'I'm like your nightmare that's still there when you're awake'

"Go away." I say.

'That's the thing.. I'm never going to leave. It's my job to make your life a living hell.'

"No! Go!" I yell.

Lexi runs in.

"Who are you talking to?" She asks.

I feel like I can't talk. I point to my head.

"Yourself. Okay. Please get some rest." She says.

I nod my head Lexi leaving.

'We don't speak of me'

"Why not?" I ask terrified.

'Because if you do.. They'll make me go away. That can't happen, so like what I did there I can make you shut up.'

"Will you ever go away?" I ask.

'Never.'

I sake in fear worried about my future.
