Save Me

Chapter 2

The bus came to an abrupt halt and the girl gasped silently.

"Hey there! We've reached the terminus. You have to get out", The young girl winced as the unfriendly scratchy voice pulled her out of her thoughts.

Terrified, the girl nodded, took her backpack and rushed out the door. It seemed even darker now, that she stood on a foreign road in what seemed like the middle of the forest. The girl started to shiver again. Burying her chin and mouth under the collar of the jacket and putting her hands into the pockets, the girl went straight ahead. She couldn't stay in the middle of nowhere.

They would find her.

The young girls head throbbed as she continued going wherever the road lead her. So she nearly overlooked the sign on the opposite side of the street saying 'Welcome to Storrybrook'. Exhausted, she made out a bus station. Her feet started to carry her faster to the welcoming bench. Finally arriving, she lay down on it.

Not the most comfortable but she had worse.

She has run far enough for today. They would only realize she was gone in the morning. She will be gone by then. Just a little break.

Her exhausted brain tried to tell her. So she closed her eyes and fell into a deep dreamless sleep.

The next day, a deep voice woke the girl up. With a racing heart, she opened her eyes. Immediately she had to blink. The sun blinded her. It has been some time since she last saw the bright light.

As her eyes got used to the sun, she made out a young man, standing in front of her. The girl looked him up and down and froze as she saw the gun in his belt. Immediately, she set up and stared the stranger. With shaking hands, she found the hem of her Jacket and held onto it for dear life. Feeling the familiar material, that always gave her comfort.

"Hey, don't be scared", he said and his voice actually sounded friendly and warm. "My name is David and I'm the sheriff of this down", he introduced himself and stared at her with his small blue eyes. But he was a Sheriff and that means he would take her back to them or put her back into foster care.

But would that acutally be worse than her situation back home?

For a few seconds, the girl played with the thought of just running away. She has already stayed too long and if she didn't move, they would soon find her. But there was no room to run off. She looked around but the man cut off all her escape routes.

Suddenly, she felt trapped. Sweat started to run down her forehead, her whole body trembled and her throat tightened. She slide farther back but soon touched the glass wall behind her.

The man obviously realized the girls discomfort and stepped back. "It's okay. I don't want to hurt you! Have you been here all night?", he asked with a calm voice.

The blonde stayed still. Just looking down and playing with her zipper.

The man soon realized, there was no answer to be expected so instead he asked: "Wanna tell me your name?"

But again, she kept quiet. The guy sighted and reached into the pocked of his jeans. Expecting the worst, the girl froze. Her breath hitched as her eyes fixed onto the man's hand.

But he just pulled out his phone and apologizingly smiled at her. Them he dialed a number and called someone.

"Good morning Regina. I need you at the bus stop on the east side of Storybrook. It's really urgent" he said and hung up.

A few minutes later, a black Mercedes came to a halt right in front of her. The door opened and the girl looked down, trying not to be noticed, which she knew of course, was silly.

As she heard the clicking of high heels, her brain blacked out. Not realizing anything around her but the terrible noise, she was so familiar with. Soon there would be nothing but pain in her world. She was sure about it.

Trembling, the young girl tried to hide behind her blonde hair but the person neared her in a rapid tempo. Pressing against the glass wall, her heart threatened to jump out of her chest.

But the clicking stopped and the pain never came. Instead, the man started speaking. "I just found her like this. She was asleep when I got here. She isn't speaking. I didn't know what to do, so I called you", he quietly said.

"Good idea. I'll take care of her", a calm but dominating voice answered. The girl was tempted to look up but as the woman started to walk again, the thought immediately left her mind. Pushing herself even farther against the wall, she realized that now, there was nowhere to go. She has come this far but it didn't matter. They would take her back and it would be worse than ever.

"Hi, my name is Regina. It's nice to meet you", the woman calmly stated. "You are shaking. I'll get you a blanked!" she than said and turned around.

Of course, the girl knew, that now was her chance. She hastily looked around and was about to jump up and run away, when she saw the woman now walking away from her. Her short brown hair perfectly fell down her neck and swung up and down with every smooth step she took. The purple coat framed her body perfectly and showed off her perfect curves. Underneath it, the end of a tight black skirt was to be seen. The black high heels made her toned legs look longer.

In one world, she was mesmerizing.

The young blonde felt paralyzed but looked away as the woman bent over to take a blanked out of her car.

'You are a bad girl! That was very inappropriate! Staring at another woman is very inappropriate!', she heard the voice of her father in her head. Soon there will be punishment! She was sure about that.

The brunette came back. But this time, she took three more steps towards the girl. Now she was only inches away and the blondes breath hitched again. Nervously, she started to play with her zipper. The woman crouched down right in front of her. She was on eye level with the girl now.

And this was the exact moment, the blonde regretted not to run away when she had the chance.

Soon she would pay for it. Squeezing her eyes shut, she waited for the pain. Trying to prepare for the unbearable ache.

But it never came. The only thing she felt, was a warm blanked, hugging her tightly and warming her up. Opening her eyes, she saw the woman stepping away from her.

With scratched and bloody fingers,the girl carefully touched the fabric . It was only than, she realized that the wounds of the gravel have drawn blood.

Wanting to snuggle into the blanked, she tried to tug on it but a stinging pain in her wrist let her hiss and abruptly drop the fabric. It slit down her shoulder and the cold wind made her shiver again.

Then, there were feminine hands garbing the blanked and pulling it up to her throat. They were gone again faster than the blonde could react.

Snuggling deeper into the warmth, a blissfully comforting feeling spread through the girl's body. The trembling stopped, and with it lessened the fear.

I hope it's not too confusing without/ with very little use of their names. 😷 I will use their names soon, but it just doesn't feel right yet. Hope you enjoyed it anyways.😊💕
