The Locker (Completed)

Chapter 12

(Lila's Point of View)

I sit on the waiting room chair, tapping my fingers on the hand rest nervously. I need to think of a plan to get out of here. Maybe I'll just say I need to use the bathroom? But what happens if he comes to check on me when I take too long? Then he'll know something is up and he can't know about this!

I look up at Josh and give him a weak smile. He smiles back while taking my hand in his and gently squeezing it. Maybe I'll just say I need some fresh air, that way I can just get out of here and walk to the street I am supposed to meet the not so anonymous people at. That's the best I've got, I just hope Josh doesn't get suspicious. I inhale deeply, and exhale slowly to calm my nerves. "Um Josh? I think I-I uh..... I NEED AIR!" I finally spit it out.

"Okay I'll come with-"

"NO!!" Josh looks at me surprised.

"I-I mean I'd rather go alone." He smiles in understanding.

"Okay babe, but if you need anything at all, just now I'm here for you." He smiles. I quickly get up and leave before he can see me cry. What I am about to do is dangerous and I may never get to see him again! The tears stream down my face as I walk along the side walk to get to the street that will change my life forever.

"Okay babe, but if you need anything at all, just now I'm here for you." I reassure her. Then suddenly she gets up and runs out of the hospital. I debate whether I should go after her, but I decide not to, as she needs time to herself. Then I look down at her chair and notice she left her cell phone. I quickly grab it and rush out the door to go and give it to her.

 Once I'm out of the hospital I expect to see her right outside. Instead I see her running down the pavement towards the crosswalk. What is she doing? Curiously I follow her. She crosses the road and starts walking along Elm St. I keep my distance and occasionally hide behind trees to make sure she doesn't see me.

 When she gets to the end of the street she stops in front of a black car. She's not getting in it is she? Who are they? Does she even know them? Suddenly the side door opens and a tall man quickly grabs Lila and shoves her in the car. "LILA!!!" I scream but I doubt she could hear me. I start to panic. What do I do?? I run after the car and get close enough to read the license plate. "R3HBQ...." Thats all I am able to read. "Fuck!" She's gone.

I fall to the ground and clutch my stomach as I use all of my energy to cry and weep. Then I stand up and run as fast as I can back to my house. My calves are on fire and I can hardly breathe but that doesn't matter to me right now. I don't slow down even for a minute. Finally I reach my house, breathing exasperatedly. I quickly find my keys as I walk in, then run towards my car. I fiercely pull out and speed down the road determined to find her.

"LILA!!"

Was all I heard as I was being shoved into a black car. Quickly a handkerchief is placed over my eyes and tied around my head. Next my hands are being tied behind my back tightly with a rope. I scream and thrash my body around so they will let me go, then suddenly a cloth is being placed over my mouth. As I inhale, I start to lose consciousness, my eyelids getting heavier and heavier. I stop screaming as I fall back on the seat, darkness overtaking me.

I wake up in a small familiar room, it's mostly dark, only the light from the street lamp is shining through. I'm sat in a chair, my hands bound to the arm rests and my legs tied together. Where have a seen this place before? I scan the room a few more times then suddenly it hits me. This is where Josh took me on our fourth date. We were at a restaurant, Rosachi was the name. Why am I here? Out of all the places why am I in the middle of Rosachi's? I wiggle my arms in an attempt to break free.

"I wouldn't try that if I were you." I hear a deep voice fill the room.

I scream in fear, "Who's there!?"

"Now now, no need to shout" the unknown voice continues to speak.

I feel his breath on the back of my neck as I shake in fear. "Why are you doing this? What do you want?" My eyes follow the dark figure as he walks to the front of me. He puts his hands on top of mine.

"You." He growls.

A shiver runs down my spine as I comprehend his words. "Why?" As soon as I said that a small light above his head was switched on. It was exactly who I expected, Parker. He bent in front of me, his face was a few inches from mine. Be strong, I kept reminding myself. I can't let him get the satisfaction of seeing me this way.

"Surprise." He says with an evil smirk on his lips. He gently pushes a strand of hair behind my ear, I flinch at his touch. I squirm in my chair trying to free myself from the rope that binds my wrists. "Uh-uh I wouldn't do that if I were you."

"Parker please! Just let me go! Why are you doing this to me?" He walks to the end of the room and sits in a small chair, still not answering my question. "You won't get away with this Parker! They-they'll find me! Josh will come and save me and you wi-" I don't get to finish my sentence, as a hand is brought to my face in a hard slap. I look up expecting to see Parker, but I am shocked to find out it was Katelyn.

"Enough! Josh will never come for you! He doesn't love you Lila, don't you know that? He's mine, and once we fake you're death, he'll realize his love for me and forget who ever, Lila Johnson was!" A sinister smile is etched on her face, as she takes a seat next to Parker. Feeling hopeless, my head droops down as I sob my eyes out.

I look up when I feel a cold, clammy hand touch my cheek. "Don't cry princess, we're together now, I won't ever let you go, never."

"You're insane Parker. I don't, nor will I ever love you!" I say as I spit on his face. He wipes it away and smiles like nothing happened.

"Oh a feisty one aren't we?" He grabs my face gently, "I like feisty." He whispers in my ear. Then unexpectedly he slams his lips onto mine in a forceful kiss. I try to pull away but he grabs my head making it impossible for me to move. He forces my lips apart by shoving his tongue into my mouth. I start to cry as I feel his hand grab my thigh and slowly slide up the length of my body. He breaks the torturous kiss and begins to place unwanted kisses on my jawline and then down my neck.

"Parker, please s-stop! Don't do th-this to m-me!" I beg as he continues his rampage on my body. Just as his lips are nearing my left breast he pulls away.

"I'll stop......for now, but only because we have to move on to the next part of the plan." Although I am thankful, I still fear what will happen in the future. What is Parker planning? Then I start to think about how my family is doing, will I ever see them again? Will I ever see Josh?

16 hours, 8 minutes, and 27 seconds. That's how long it's been since she was taken from me. The image of her being pulled into that black car, replays over and over again in my head.

I drove around for 6 hours nonstop, looking for some sort of sign or clue to where she might be. I sit on the edge of a Motel 6 bed with my head in my hands, just praying that one day I'll see her again.

Just when I start to think all hope is lost, I remember that I still have her phone. I run over to the little coffee table next to the bed where the phone was placed.

I look through her recent messages, the most obvious one was the text that said to meet at the exact address where she was taken. It's almost as if she purposely left her phone behind, so I can come save her.

I can't take this to the police, this is something I must do on my own. I read more and more texts but unfortunately nothing leads me to where she is, or who took her. I'm starting to lose hope, but I wont give up, not until I find her.
