Jizzie- savior. (Completed prt1)

Chapter 47

Joel's POV

I arrive home and realise I had none of my homework done. I wasn't too alarmed seeing as it was only Saturday and I am completely knackered. All I wanted to do was go to bed.

I set up my room to the way I like and jump into bed. Not even two seconds later my mum calls me down. "JOEL!" She shouts.

I slowly stomp down the stairs rubbing my eyes. "What." I say exhausted. "Watch this!" She sat me down on the couch and forced me to watch the news.

"Two children who go by the name of Ann and Sabrina have been reported missing. We looked over the cameras in their estate to see an older man luring them into a van at Stevens's street. More on the story as it develops."

I gulped. My estate was on Steven's street. I immediately thought of Lizzie as she was walking to her mums house.
I ran upstairs and shut the bedroom door.

The group chat was blowing up.
We decide to do a group call.

Yammy: did you guys see the news?
Joel: yeah, It's awful.. I hope the kids are found soon.
Scott: same. My heart goes out for em.
Lizzie: what happened?
Kiol: there's a kidnapper around Stevens street.
Lizzie: you have got to be kidding me. I'm walking there now!
Joel: where? I'll come meet you.
Lizzie: no Joel stay inside.
Joel: Lizzie-
Lizzie: Joel stay inside.
Joel: no lizzie-
Lizzie: JOEL!
Yammy: rip headphone users.
Joel: LIZZIE SHUT UP!
Lizzie: wow someone's in a good mood.
Joel: I can see you.
Lizzie: I told you STAY INSIDE!
Joel: I am inside I can see you from my window.
Kiol: creepy.
Scott: oh my god he didn't mean it like- forget it.
Joel: Lizzie who are you with?
Lizzie: cut it out Joel that's not gonna work.
Yammy: what?
Joel: I'm not messing who's behind you?
Scott: Joel stop that's not funny.
Joel: I'm not messing! I'm coming out.
Lizzie: no Joel don't! No ones here.
Yammy: Joel?
Joel: Lizzie don't look behind you. Just walk towards my house, slow. I'm in my front garden. I'm going to walk over to you okay?
Lizzie: Joel you idiot get back inside.
Joel: shh.
Lizzie: is this a prank?
Yammy: I don't think he's messing.
Lizzie: what?
Joel: DONT TURN AROUND!
Lizzie: oh...my....god.
Joel: I'm coming! Lizzie run towards my house!
Scott: what the hell is going on?
Joel: Lizzie!
*joel leaves the call*

Lizzie is frozen in fear. It's a race between me and the tall man in the other side if her. I grab lizzies hand and leg it towards my house. I hear the mans heavy foot steps run after us. "JOEL RUN!" Lizzie yells as if she is only now rendering in what is going on. We reach my garden and the man gave up and ran in the opposite direction.

Lizzie hugs me tight crying into my shoulder. She's freezing. "It's okay." I say hugging her back. Yammy is blowing my phone up with messages.

We get inside and I took Lizzie up on the couch. She's still shook up about what happened. I text the group and let them know Lizzie is okay.

She sits sipping her coffee watching la la land with me. We didn't bring up anything that happened. We just watch the movie.
