*NIALL*

I didn't want to go back, that would make me look desperate, but I had to. What if she stole it and now I was apart of the crime?

That's highly unlikely, but who knows.

I got out, ring in hand, and decided to play a prank on her.

I knocked on the door, got on one knee, and when she answered, this is what I said.

"I know iv'e only known you for a little while, but your just so beautiful, Elle Smith, will you marry me?"

She had tears coming out of her eyes, from laughing, not my sweet proposal. I pretended to look hurt.

"Niall," She shared in between laughs, "I would love to, but that's my moms ring!" she said.

"Well we can call and ask if we can use it." I suggested.

"She mumbled what sounded like, "I wish we could." then, I saw fresh tears forming in her eyes.

"Well here's your mom's ring back." I said.

"Thanks." She said, wiping away the tears.

"Would you like to come in?" She asked.

"Why not? I'm already here." I told her. 

She nodded and moved aside to let me in.

She slipped the ring on her finger

"Shouldn't you give that back to your mom?" I asked?

"I can't " she said. 'My mom's six feet underground.'

And thats when she let the tears fall freely.

I pulled her close and rubbed her back.

I whispered that it would all be okay.

"Im sorry Niall, I don't even know you, you didn't need to hear my problems." Elle said.

"It's okay love, but I really have to go. Call me when ever you need me" I said, feeling bad that I had to leave her.

" Ok, thanks for the proposal." Elle said.

"Anytime love." I said before walking out the door.

*ELLE*

I can't believe I told him that. He was the first person I ever told, since I have no friends. I'm not that social.

I turned the telly on and fell asleep. I woke up at 4:30 am. 

I checked my phone and saw that I had a message from an unknown number.

I played the message and soon regretted it.

"Hello Michelle. Remember me? I'm going to finish you off. Just like your mother. You can run, but you can't hide from you past. I'm coming. Bye bitch."

I fell on the floor, shocked at what my stepfather just said to me.

Why isn't that ass in jail? He killed my mum and tried to kill me! He should be in the madhouse.

I wanted to call Niall, but he was probably sleeping.

I just lied there on the floor, unable to cry anymore.

I was going to die.
