Finding The Way Back

I think I'm awake. I look around the room. The walls are gray and rough, and the floor is concrete. Is this a basement?

I scan the people in the room with me. I see Cameron, Brent, Jack Johnson, and a girl who looks vaguely familiar. Is that...me? It is. I'm laying on a bed. My face has a strip of dry blood right above my eyebrow.

How can I be there and right here? How can I see myself? Cameron is resting on a couch near the bed I'm on, Brent is sitting next to me, and Jack (J.) is asleep on a different bed across the room.

Brent looks worried. I hear a door slam. "Look who's here. Did you guys get to greet her yet?" I turn towards the door to see Jake. That fucking douche bag. I hate him so much.

"What did you do to her Jake?" Cameron demands.

"Isn't it obvious? I got her into a car crash. I'd be surprised if she ever wakes up."

"You can't have her if she's dead. Then again, you can't have her either way." Brent smirks. Does he have a plan?

"Good luck ever getting out of here." Jake walks back up the stairs and the door slams shut.

"Skylar, please wake up. I don't know what I'd do if anything happen to you." Brent speaks.

"Brent! I'm right here! Can't you see me?" I try to speak, but he doesn't look away from me laying on the bed.

Why can't they see me? Am I dead? I start crying.

"Skylar!" Cameron yells. I'm in a different spot now. I'm on the bed.

"What happened?" I ask.

"Jake hurt you, badly." Cameron replies.

"Where are we?"

"I don't know. We woke up in here too. It was a while ago."

I try to sit up, but it hurts to move. "What exactly did he do to me?"

"From what we know, he purposely got you into a car crash."

"Frick." Shouldn't I be in a hospital right now?

"You just need to rest." Brent says as he gets a piece of hair out of my face.

I smile and close my eyes, but there's absolutely no way I can sleep. There are too many thoughts rushing through my mind right now.

How are we ever going to get out of here? The rest of the boys know I'm gone. Will they come looking for me? Will Nash?

*******

It's been days since I was here. I finally got myself to sit up. The pain has reduced a little. Everyone is asleep except Jack J.

"Jack (J.) what are we supposed to do? How can we get out of here? I'm scared. What if I never see Nash again? Or Taylor? Or the rest of the boys? My best friends? Shawn? What if I never see anyone ever again?"

Jack (J.) walks over and sits by me, "Calm down. Everything will be fine. You'll be safe as long as you have us three with you."

"I just can't shake the thought from my head. Shawn may not even know I am in trouble until his tour is over. What if I'm dead by then? I should be in the hospital getting medical help right now. You guys will obviously last longer than I will. You're stronger, braver, you're guys. Guys are just plain strong."

"Stop talking like that Sky. I will get you out of here. You'll see Shawn again. That's a promise I will not break. I'll risk my life for yours without hesitation."
