Emily's POV

Friday, December 26.

1 more day.

1, Until I faced Zayn. That stupid golden eyed boy, who seemed to be a very clever person of his age.

The one who made Liam the person he is today. Not completely, but partly. At least that's what I think.

Today was one of those days where I couldn't help where my mind drifted. My mind seemed to be controlling itself, as I thought about Zayn.

That night when he aggressively pushed me against the wall, he seemed evil. The thing is, his actions were evil, but the look in his eyes told yet another story.

His eyes told me he wasn't going to hurt me, but his hands told me he was.

I probably sound mentally insane right now, just like my father, but maybe that's okay. It's okay, for now, because tomorrow is probably going to be life changing. I'm already having second thoughts about going, but I know I need too. It's required, and I have too in order to keep Liam safe. He's all I ever care about anymore, and I can't let the things I love get hurt.

Love.

Do I love Liam?

I've never thought about it until now.

I know I care about him a lot, and I would do anything for him. I love the way his words and lips, taste like vanilla, and the way his chocolate brown eyes look at me. His eyes hold so much story to them, that I want to find out. I don't know much about Liam, but I do know some. I don't know if I should love him.

I shouldn't, but I do.

I love Liam.

I sit silently, as I wait for Liam to get back. He went off to get a pizza for dinner, leaving me staring off at the tv. This show was utterly pointless, and I had no interest in it whatsoever.

My phone lit up beside me, snapping me out of my thoughts.

New text message from: unknown

Chills ran throughout my body, as I stared at the screen.

My phone lit up again, telling me I had another text from unknown.

With a hesitating and shaking hand, I picked up my phone from beside me. I slid the button across, opening up my text messages.

can't wait too see you tomorrow beautiful x

Little tears stared forming at the corner of my eyes, as I realized how pathetic this is. He's going to take me, and do god knows what to me. For all I know, he might kill me. He might rape me or hurt me.

Either way, both will turn out very horribly.

I remember in the letter Richard sent me a couple of days ago, it said to meet him at the abandons auto shop called Phil's Wheels.

Abandon. Of course it had to be abandon.

I look back down at my screen, reading the next message from him.

Changing the time to 6 am. Liam shouldn't be up. Hope too see you there.. Xx

Clever. Of course he made it earlier, because he knew Liam wouldn't be up to ask me where I was going.

Clever one Richard.

-

Only twenty minutes later, Liam shows up.

"I got your favorite." Liam says, placing the pizza box on the counter.

"And what would that be?" I ask, peeking through the pizza box.

"Ham and bacon with cheese filled crust." He says off the top of his head.

I fake a smile at him, placing two slices on a plate for him, then one for me.

"You know me too well." I inform him, as we sit down on the couch with the pizza.

I don't talk as I barely eat, but instead I pick at my food.

"You okay?" Liam speaks up. I look at him, desperately wanting too tell him everything.

"Yeah." I look away, taking a small bite of the pizza.
