 (Parker’s Point of View)

I stare at her from across the room. It’s been a whole day since she’s been here. I honestly feel bad for putting her through this but it’s the only way we can be together. Her head is down and her chest rises and falls as she breathes softly. I get up and walk to the back where the kitchen is, and get her some water. I exit the kitchen and stand in front of her holding out the water. "Heres some water for you." She lifts her head up and I look at her tearstained face. She looks at the water cup suspiciously. "Its just water I promise. You need to drink it, I know you're thirsty Lila." I bring the cup up to her lips so she can take a sip. When she’s done she sits back in her chair.

"Can you at least untie my hands?" she asks, her voice hoarse from crying.

"How do I know you won't try to escape?" I challenge her.

"I won't I promise. The ropes are hurting my wrists though. Please Parker!" she begs me.

"I can’t I’m sorry." As soon as those words leave my lips, a sob escapes from hers. I cup her face with my right hand and tilt her head to look t me. "Don’t cry princess, we wont be here much longer."

"Where are you taking me?!" Lila screams at the top of her lungs. I jump back and cover my ears.

"Lila, calm down we need to get on with the plan." I put my hand in my pocket and pull out my cell phone. "Ok this is what is going to happen, I am going to call Josh and put you on the phone, then you are going to say your final goodbyes, make him feel sad, bring up amazing moments that you two shared, then I’m going to fire a shot in the air, and you are going to be completely silent got it?"

"What if I’m not silent? What if I tell him exactly where I am and who took me?" She remarks.

"Then I really will kill you." I lie.

I press the call button and the phone begins to ring.

Lila's P.O.V

I want to cry but I have no tears. Not ever being able to see Josh again would be like dying. He is my life now. I listen to the phone ring some more and then I hear his heavenly voice.

"Hello?" Josh’s worried voice invades my ears.

"Josh!" I cry out.

"Lila!! Where are you baby? Are you okay?" he asks.

"Listen Josh I need to tell you something just let me talk, please don't speak." I tried to control my sobs but it was no use. I took a deep breath and tried to focus on the plan I came up with. "This is the last time I’m going to talk with-"

"No-no Lila!! Don’t do this, I can help you please don’t give up!" he begs of me.

"Please Josh, its too late you can't save me. I want my last few minutes to be spent remembering all of the fun times we've shared, all of the special moments. Like where you took me for our fourth date? That was so romantic, remember that place Josh, remember where you took me? That was the best date of my life, I wish I were there right NOW! Just remember the fourth date we had, just remember where it was Josh, please!" I beg, hoping he'll catch on. Hoping he'll know where I am. Hoping he will come and save me before it really is too late.

Silence. Not one word for what felt like ages then, "Lila, I remember, I’m coming for you. Then it will be just you and me for-"

BANG!

"LILA!!!" I heard him scream into the phone.

One gun-shot was fired into the cold tile floors. Parker covered my mouth with his hand to be sure I was silent. Then he spoke, "The only thing you will be coming for is Lila's cold lifeless corps."

"Don’t touch her!! I swear, when I find you and I promise it will be soon, I will torture you so much, there will be nothing for the police to identify your body with." He screamed in the phone.

"Good luck" Parker said before ending the call and putting his phone away.

Katelyn's P.O.V

My phone beeps while im watching tv in my living room. The text ive been waiting for all day finally came!

'Its done, she's 'dead'.

I smirk at how blunt he is about it. If somebody saw these texts we would for sure be put in jail. I click reply, 'Now onto phase three.'

I get into my car and drive towards Josh's house. Once I’m there I knock on the door but nobody answers. I try again but get the same response. Where could he possibly have gone? As I turn to walk away the door opens. I bring my head up to meet an older looking women who I assume to be his mom. "Can I help you?"

I smiled at her politely, "Hi there, my name is Katelyn I was just wondering If you could tell me where Josh is?"

"Oh well Josh went on a trip, he didn't say where or what time he’d be back, sorry." She says while closing the door.

I turn around and walk to my car I cruise down the road with no clue as to where I’m going. All I know is that I need to find Josh and once I do we can finally be together. I know he wants me just as much as I want him, maybe even a little more! Once he realizes how much better I am for him, he'll love me and forget about her.

I park my car in front of my house and just sit there. I pull out my phone and decide to text Josh. 'Hey sexy, want to have lunch today?xx' I put my phone on the passenger seat and turn on the radio. The cool air conditioning is blowing in my face as I sit back and close my eyes.

When I wake up I check my phone. Its only been 30 minutes, but how come he didnt reply? I get frustrated and call him, surprisingly he answered.

"Katelyn, I can't talk now I'm very busy" his tone is stern.

"Aww come on Joshy, let me come over and we can have a little fun"

"No! Katelyn leave me the fuck alone! I don't like you and I never will! Can't you take a hint? Just stop talking to me please!" he screams into the phone.

When he hangs up I feel livid. I get out of my car and pace my driveway. Then I chuck my phone on the ground and watch as it shatters into pieces. Its because of her! That little bitch ruins everything! She’s going to pay, she’s going to know what it feels like to not ever be with the one you want.

I get back in my car and speed down to the restaurant. When I’m finished with her there will only be me and he'll have no choice but to be with me.
