Chapter Eleven

------

I hear another loud bang on the door and it makes me snap out of my shock. Louis' hands are still holding my face. He looks terrified as well.

"Louis, quick!" I panic. "Lock the backdoor!"

Louis rushes over there and locks it. I do the same to the front door.

"Help me close all the windows, babe" I command. Both of us run around the room, closing every opening of the house. I'm so terrified, I want to cry. My chest is tightening. Jack continues shouting and banging on our door. We're safe now, though. He can't come in.

"OPEN UP YOU FAGGOT"

"NEVER" I shout back. "Leave us alone" I feel tears burn in my eyes.

This has always been what I feared most and it's actually becoming real now. This can't be happening. How did Jack even find us? Louis and I were supposed to start all over and be safe and left alone.

It turns out that even moving miles away, doesn't stop Jack from ruining our lives.

Jack has abused me for years. He's made every single day miserable for me. Since the day I came out as gay, my life at home has been hell. Moving to Portugal was supposed to solve the problem, but it hasn't.

Suddenly, the banging on the door stops and I don't hear Jack shout anymore. I look at Louis in confusion, but also in fear when everything goes silent.

It's already dark outside. I can't see anything when I look out of the window. I feel as if I'm in a horror movie. I hear something rustle. The sound is coming from outside around the house.

Louis and I turn around towards where the noise comes from. Then, I hear something behind us, so we turn around again.

I see nothing though.

Louis grabs my hand and I feel him squeeze it. More terrifying sounds surround us, but I don't know where they're coming from. I hold Louis close and we slowly stumble back. We're standing in the middle of our living room now and I feel as if something very bad is about to happen to us at any moment.

Both of us breathe rapidly. It's so quiet and scary, I could shit my jeans.

Then, an awful sound of shattering glass makes my entire body shake.

I abruptly turn my head into the direction of the loud noise. In a flash, I see something big land on our floor and pieces of glass fly everywhere. I watch the shatters fall to the ground, but bounce back up right after.

I think Louis has got really good reflexes, because he covers his head and lowers himself to the ground. He pulls me with him and I automatically hover my body over Louis' tender one. I want to protect him. I need to.

Once the shattering seems to be over, I slowly lift my head up. Louis frees himself out of my hold and he stands up. I do too and gasp at the mess our living room is in now. My eyes widen at the big hole in our window.

I can not breathe anymore as I see two foul eyes at the other side of the smashed window. Jack's dark eyes do not leave mine. His face is becoming more clear to me as he approaches. The light from inside brightens his face.

I shiver.

The window is big enough for a person to climb through. And since the glass is gone now, it's an entrance for Jack...
