Luna's POV:

I had gotten my hair cut as it was now summer, and it was hot weather. I had gotten a pixie cut because it was easier than having to tie it up.

It was a week since the Frank/Gerard incident and I have tried to avoid Gerard as much as possible. It was hard, but I had managed 3 days. I hadn't forgiven him yet for pushing Frank.

There was a sudden knock on the door, unlike any of the secret ones that we had. I peeped through the hole, as I was home alone, and saw Bert with a Baseball bat and some other people outside.

I ran to the baseball bat we had below the door, and ran to safety.

I was hiding in the cupboard under the stairs. It was like Harry Potter but worse because I could barely fit. I wasn't worried about that because this was a life-Death situation.

I could hear shouting, and the door being kicked. I snatched my phone from my pocket and barely managed to press Frank's name in my contacts.

I explained that there was a crowd of people outside, including Bert, he told me he would call everyone else and get them as backup.

The front door suddenly fell onto the wooden floor, probably putting a dent into it. "Come Out" Bert menacingly chuckled. I kept as quite as I could, breathing through my nose. I exhaled silently through my mouth.

I could hear the cupboards being thrown open and slammed back. I started to panic and prayed that the others would be here in time.

I heard footsteps stop outside where I was hiding. My heart was pounding out of my stomach. I felt like I was about to be violently sick. Bert's menacing voice whispered "I found you" "Shit" I whispered under my breath.

The door swings open and I'm surrounded by people. "You guys can go, I've found her now" he says, signalling the others away.

I start to sob, he throws me over his shoulder and carries me to the purposely placed van outside, throws me into the back, locks the door and strolls to the front. I stand up and look out the back window.

I see cars arriving and I immediately recognise them as Frank's car, Gerard and Lindsey's car and the others. I suddenly start pounding and screaming at the window, hoping to get someone's attention.

Bert notices and shouts at me to be quiet, "Shut up or you'll never see them again!" I hear him shout, and I sit back down and quiet.

I have my knees pulled up to my head, and I sob harder. I didn't care if Bert heard me, I knew if I made it back alive I could get him arrested for kidnapping. My thoughts wondered over to Gerard and the others.

The last words I said to Gerard were uncalled for, and I had planned before this to apologize. But this son of a bitch found me before I could.

The doors swung open and Bert signalled for me to follow him. I didn't care where he was taking me, I focused on how to stay alive. Because there was no way I was dying with this piece of shit. I remembered I had my phone on me, I quickly went onto Frank's contact and sent him the location.

"Give me that" I look up to see Bert trying to take my phone, he automatically sees that I've sent Frank the location, and snatches it away and deletes it before it sends. "Fuck you" I mutter.

"Excuse me?" He asks, "Nothing" I try to say innocently. "Why did you kidnap me?" I ask curiously, "You put me in prison" he replies, "So did Lindsey" I sass. He doesn't reply, and I laugh because I just out-sassed him.

"When do I get to go back?" I ask, "the length of my prison sentence, 2 Months" he replies "Seriously?" I reply, gob smacked. I didn't tell him about calling the police when I get out, otherwise he would probably kill me.
