Chapter 26

Elle's p.o.v.:

I was on a beach with my entire family alive and well. I was happy. We got in a line for... Boats? I get into the boat and no one follows me... I'm alone. Anxiety fills me... I row out into the ocean at first with ease. Each row deeper brought me farther but shallower into the sickly blue-green water. I blinked my eyes and then I was in the middle of the ocean suddenly. I rowed to get back to shore, whichever direction it was. Each row brought a sickening scrape against horrible sand. The scrape made you shiver. It was like rubbing sandpaper nails on a chalkboard, but worse. A sense of impending doom loomed over me, ticking like a tomb bomb. No matter how hard I rowed the sickly scrape rang in my ears, and it only got louder and louder. The ticking of doom got faster and faster. The scrapes got louder and louder. I pushed harder and harder. I was lost. Alone. And felt death around the corner. All I could hear was the dreadful scrape that rang in your ears for seconds after. The ocean never seemed to end. My doom imploded on my world and the sky fell down upon me. I tried to scream, but nothing came out.

I gasped for breath and shot into a seated position. I groaned in pain. Oh god... Why does it hurt so much? Memories from last night came flooding in. I remembered the flashbacks, the fight... The... The... man.... I shivered at the thought of him. I looked around with the one eye I could see out of. I was home... In my room I shared with Louis. He must've beat me up hard. After the attack I Remember nothing. I remember someone whispering, "Im sorry..." That's it though... My good eye reached to my left side where a sleeping heap kneeled at my bedside. The heap snorted then lifted its head. It ran its fingers through its tousled brown hair. I locked eyes with the depressed heap. Louis... He had tears in his eyes.

"Look Elle, I'm so sorry. I should've stayed with you. That girl was a fan who got carried away.Then... Then I couldn't find yo-..." He trailed off.

I grabbed his collar and best I could pulled him towards me. I kissed him with all my might.

"I forgive and believe you..." I whispered. Normally I would've been really mad, but I was too weak for that. Plus, I wanted him near me after... After what happened to me.

His face lit up and he kissed me again. "I'm so sorry Elle... I found you there and my world was crushed in that moment... I'm glad you're ok... Well, sorta..." He said sheepishly.

I moved over as best I could with all of my bruises and gashes. I motioned for Louis to join me and he did without hesitation. I snuggled up to him. How could I be mad at him? I love him so much... And he saved me. He was looking for me and found me... And about the crazed fan. I trust him. He would never lie to me. I know he wouldn't.

"I know this is a very... Sore subject, but... Erm... How far did...-?" He trailed off.

"He get?" I asked looking up at him.

He nodded sadly.

"He didn't. He kissed me a lot" I pointed to my once bloody lips, " he hit me and tried to rip my dress..." I swallowed, "off... But nothing more."

He looked slightly relieved. "Well... At least he didn't do that..."

"Yeah, but I still have my fair share of souvenirs from his visit." I said sarcastically.

"Are you mad at me?" He asked sheepishly.

"No." I replied simply. "I love and trust you more than ever. And thank you."

"For what? "

"For saving me..."

"I didn't do a very good job..." He gestured to my many injuries.

I smiled and kissed him. "I'm alive and grateful."

He smiled And kissed me again, but this time longer and fuller.

"I love you too" he whispered in my ear. As much as what happened to me will stay with me... Forever and haunt me, Louis will always be there to catch me when I fall. I'm going to tell Louis.
