Emerson's POV
"Blah, blah, blah..." I say as I flip through a random book I found in my closet. I threw it beside me on the bed and fell back.
I heard mom and dad yelling downstairs, talking Yeah about how me and mom are his family and not Daren's. I wanted to go downstairs, but I honestly was scared.
Soon after that everything went quiet. I'm not sure if they're still there, and I kind of don't want to know.
So here I am, laying in my room while reading a boring book. Which of funny because I never read books, not even when I'm bored.
I heard heavy footsteps coming up the stairs and to my room, making my heart pound and me shoot straight up. What if it's dad? What if it's my turn to get punished?
As soon as the door opener I grabbed my pillow and threw it at the person, "NO! Go away!" I screamed.
"Ow, What the hell Emma?" That voice was definitely not my dads, but someone I've missed so much. I looked at the doorway to see Landon. I waisted no time running up to him and embracing him in a tight hug.
"Landon?!" I asked.
"Yeah, it's me. But come on we have to hurry," he took my hand, he then looked down at my stomach. "Your pregnant?!" He whispered/shouted.
"Yeah, we can catch up another time. But Hurry for what?" I asked. He led me down stairs.
"I'm getting you out of-" before he could finish his sentence a loud, bloody murder scream came from downstairs. Then loud sobs followed the screams, and I knew it was moms.
"Mom..?" I say more as a question, "Landon! That's mom! She's probably hurt. We have to help her!" I freaked.
"Ok, i will. Aspen, Avery and Greyson are outside in the car, go get in and I'll be there as fast as I can," Landon pointed his finger at me as he made his way to the stairs that led downstairs. I watched as he walked down stairs.
I felt myself break into a huge smile when I thought of Avery and my best friends. But Am I really going to leave him? Probably not. But it's my mom we're talking about, I would take a bullet for her.
I made my decision and quietly made my way down stairs. As I got there I saw the most heartbreaking thing ever.
Daren was tied up to a chair, and beaten badly. One of dads mafia members was holding mom tightly. Her mascara stained her cheeks and her blood shot eyes were visible. She was thrashing in the mans arm with all her strength. And then there was dad, with a gun pointed at Daren. It was like I was frozen in my spot, I couldn't move.
All I could think about was dad shooting Daren right now, I could already imagine moms screams and sobs.
I looked around for Landon, only to find him in the corner with a hood over his head, hiding his face. I could barley see him, considering it was a dark corner. I heard the click of dads gun, and then in a blink Landon pulled out a gun and shot dad in the shoulder.
Landon shot dad.
He fell to the ground, dropping his gun in the process. Mom waisted no time breaking free of the mans grip and running over to Daren. I ran my pregnant ass over to him to, helping mom untie him.
"Emma?!" Mom asked, "what are you doing here? Go back upstairs it's to dangerous down here," she says. I ignore her and focus on untie the huge knot.
"I'm not leaving," I said as I moved onto the next knot. Mom stared at me for a minute. A smile made its way on her face before she untied the rope on Daren's left leg. Once me and mom untied Daren completely we helped him to the stairs.
