Runaways

Chapter 4

"Lia"

"Lia"

I jumped up then felt dizzy and nauseous.

"Lay back down Lia, you're gonna hurt yourself"

Who was talking to me?

"Who-" I swallowed. "Who are you?"

"It's me, Liam, your brother."

"I can't see you," I said squinting my eyes. "I can't see anything...AM I DEAD, AM I BLIND" I said sitting up from my laying position.

"I don't think you're blind-or dead in that matter, here let me-"
The whiteness stopped and I could see everything coming back together like a puzzle. And there he was sleeping In a seat, all the way across the room.

"Lia are you okay?" I heard Liam ask but I didn't look at him, I was staring at Noah.

"How did I get here, what was the thing with horns, where's Mom, where's Sam?" My head was pounding.

I screamed.

I pulled my hair out.

Liam screamed too.

I never wanted to scare you like this Li but I don't have control over my body.

I could see Liam crying and Noah get up from the seat.

That's when I realized these are the only beings keeping me alive.
Everything was happening so fast.

I could feel my body fall back onto the pillows.

I was still screaming.

And then it was back.

It was back.

Screaming at me to shut up and go to sleep.

I felt people around me, touching me, I could hear their voices and when they touched my skin, it burned like fire-like lava.

I felt something sharp go into my legs, arms, a shoulder, and chest. That's when I completely blacked out.

~3 weeks later~

Hospitals suck.

I've been in this stupid hospital bed since the last time they moved me, when I saw Liam.

I don't know what came over me but they think I'm insane, that's why I'm leaving the hospital to go to rehab, I have no idea why.

I'm not crazy. I'm not on drugs. I think I fell off a roof but that's kinda a blur, everything has been a blur lately. I keep blacking out and I don't know what's causing it.

But tonight I will not black out.

I will have fun with my friends, I'm planing on going to some party some dudes hosting.

I know it's a horrible choice considering I'm in a hospital bed with an 'insane' label but I'd just really like to get out of this hospital, I don't think my stomach can take anymore jello or apple juice.

~An hour later~

I'm ready, I texted Liam to bring me some clothes because I was tired of wearing those stupid hospital dresses-excuses, excuses.
He offered to stay but I told him to go, I almost asked him to take me to the party but then I thought about it and it would've been blowing my cover, so I'm calling an uber.

Not the smartest choice but I'm desperate.

I hit up the uber they thankfully take me where I was trying to go without a problem. It was kinda creepy though probably for them and me-I was being picked up from a hospital.
Once I got there I instantly got a headache. I regretted going but I went in anyway.

"I need a drink" I whispered to myself.

Once I got to the kitchen the music wasn't as loud and there was less people. I got a drink and sat out in the backyard. I was just looking around like a normal human being when Mason came jogging up to me.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" He questioned once he got close enough for me to hear.

"Nothing, just chillaxin" I replied sipping the last of my beer.

"I think I'm gonna go get another drink" I said getting up.

"I'll come with you, I think I need one myself" he said following close behind me.

After a few drinks....a few as in a lot, I lost Mason and was on the dance floor.

Someone tapped me, I looked behind me and saw Noah.

"NOAH BABY!" I slurred.

"Lia what the fuck you need to get back to the hospital, how'd you even get out here?" He said grabbing my arm. I pulled away. hard.

"Pff my friend tony got me here.....how are you sweet cheeks"

"Oh my god, let's go now" he said pulling me.

"NOOOOO! IM NOT GOONG WITH YOU, IM STAYING HERE AND DANCING don't ruin my fun." I pouted.

"I'm going to get you a water or something, stay here and do not move" he pointed his finger in my face like I was a child.

I went to go and get more drinks until I couldn't taste them anymore.

My head was pounding.

I couldn't even hear myself breathing or thinking in that matter.

I searched the crowd looking for Noah but he was no where In sight.

My vision was blurred by how drunk I was.

I felt someone grab my hand but I couldn't really make out their face due to all alcohol.
I knew I was making a bad decision by not instantly pulling away and not following him.

After he pulled me into a room only lit by the moon, he turned me so I was facing him.
He pushed men down on, I assume is a bed, hovering above me, the mystery man's face is covered in moonlight and I see, the one and only- Mason Williams.

"Mason, I want to go home" I teared up.

"Shhh, baby girl" he stroked my face.

"I'm scared" I choke.

I looked into his eyes and all I saw was lust maybe. I noticed he was shirtless. I wanted to touch his body so bad but I knew I'd be punished for it.

"M-Mason" I shuddered.

He smashed his lips into mine and I kissed back. I deepened the kiss by arching my back and I could feel his bulge on my leg so I pulled away and pushed him off of me.

"I-i....you...no" I ran out of that room and just kept running.

I ran out of the house.

I ran down the street.

I ran until I couldn't run anymore and once I stopped, I noticed I didn't know where I was, I didn't know where I came from. I was surrounded by grass and water.

I walked over to the water and sat down. I cried. I watched my tears drop into the water and blur my reflection.

At that moment, I realized that my life is actually fucked.
