~Casey's POV~

"Hello? Luke?" I noticed the caller id. My tears suddenly wiped away from my face. My cheeks were still wet though.

"Hello my love. How have you been all these years? Do you remember me? Or are you having some trouble. Let me remind you. Does Caleb ring a bell in that dead brain of yours." His words slithered out of his mouth like pure venom. I felt tears coming out. I couldn't speak. I was choking on my own words. I was about to say something until I heard his voice again.

"That's right. That's what I thought. I guess you do remember me. By the way, I love your apartment. You might need to get a new carpet though, unless you like the color red." I heard his wicked laugh.

"WHAT DID YOU DO!" I screamed into the phone.

"Oh nothing. Just getting rid of the trash. Oh and by the way, some guy was here. He had a key, you should really stop letting strangers into your home. Hope you have a nice drive. Keep in touch. I love y-"

"NOOOOOOOOOOO! Nash stopped the car and looked at me. He came out of the car and jogged around to my side. "Lukeee. What have you done you piece of AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" I screamed until my throat hurt. Nash had grabbed my bridal style and out me in the back seat so that he could hold me in his arms.

"Shhhh. It's okay. We'll call an ambulence and they'll save him. Everything is going to be okay." Nash whispered in my ear.

"But - But I thought he didn't want Luke. I can't do this! You lied! YOU LIAR! GET AWAY FROM ME!" I screamed and got off from Nash's lap. I fell out of the car and sat on the side of the road. It was completely dirt and the dust went everywhere in the air. I started coughing and I wiped my eyes. I was completely covered in dirt. I saw Nash walking towards me and me picked me up.

"I'm so sorry. Nash I just lost it." I whispered.

"Don't apologize for something you didn't do. You are fine. Now let's get going. There you go." He set me down in the passenger seat and closed the door. He jogged around to his side and started the car. I laid my head back. He needed to be finished. This war is between us now.

I got my phone and called my house. Luke somehow picked up on the third ring. His voice was dehydrated. He didn't sound well.

"Hello?" His scratchy voice muttered.

"Luke! ITS CASEY! Did you call the police yet? Where's Caleb? Luke this is extremely important. Okay. Now follow my directions. Get an ambulence and go to the hospital, STAY THERE until I come back or until Nash comes back. Please. Just promise." I said seriously.

"Casey, I would promise, but I can't."

"And why not."

"Cause I'm not breaking another promise of ours. When I'm better I will help you. You can't stop me." I stopped listening. Luke needs to stay in safety.

"Luke, it's fine. I have uh Nash. I'm safe. Stay there and stay safe. Love ya!" I kissed my through the phone and he laughed with his scratchy voice. I heard police sirens throught the phone and I heard people coming in the house.

He's safe now, I hope.

"Nash stop here. Please." I begged.

"Sure babe. Let's get out of the car for a minute."

We got out of the car and there was a row of picnic tables there. We sat down at one that was under the tree and pretty close to the lake. We weren't visible from the highway, so it felt like we were in a park. I held Nash's hand while I sat on his lap. He put his hands on my waist and I leaned back on his shoulder. It was so peaceful.
