Abigail's POV
'Come out come out wherever you are!" Came a voice from downstairs.
Travis was home.
A wave of fear runs down my spine as I hear footsteps on the staircase getting louder.
"I know you're here somewhere!" he said. From now you could hear how he slurred his sentences, indicating he was drunk.
I ran to a window in my room, my fingers stumbling to get the latch undone. Finally, I managed to open it just as I hear the click of my doorknob...he frickin picked the frickin lock!
Frick.
I'm halfway out the window when he barges into the room with a half full bottle of beer in his hand. He throws his arm back and flings it back forward, the beer bottle hurling towards me and I duck before it can hit me. Unfortunately, It hits the wall behind me and a few shards of glass find their way in my back.
Tears well up in my eyes but I hold them back as I keep pushing myself to get out of this window. When I make it out, a start to slide down the side of the roof when he comes out of my window as well.
Just before he can grab me, I fly off the roof and prepare to land my 8 foot drop. I feel a sharp pain in the heel of my foot, but I don't dare stop moving to see if it's broken.
I'm now at the front of the neighborhood, and I have to try and cross the busy street before he catches up on me.
"There you are, don't you dare move!" I turn around to see him about 30 feet away from me slowly getting closer.
Alright, Abby. Now or never.
I run across the street and no one hits me until I pass the last lane. A big black van stops just in time, I mouth thanks and keep running.
Niall's POV
We all just got back from our tour, and on the way back home to our flats, Paul is driving and were all listening to Counting Stars when all of a sudden Paul screams and jams the breaks and we all lean forward hitting our head on the seat in front of us.
"OW!" we all said in unison.
Paul pointed to the front of the car through the window and I saw the most beautiful girl. She looked panicked as she mouthed thanks to us for stopping and she runs off.
"Who was that?" Liam asked.
"I don't know, but lets find out, Paul, follow her." Zayn said.
We all agreed, so we look in the direction she ran off to, and off we went.
