Chapter 11

Z's POV

“Sorry to tear you away from Alex Z.” Caleb smiled at me laughing, “but Becca made me.”

“Let me guess; Shes going to drag him in a corner and question him right?”

“Noo......” Caleb and I burst out laughing as we twirled around to a song. When it was over I told him I needed to use the restroom. I came back out of there when suddenly someone grabbed me. At first I thought it was Alex so I smiled and turned around only to find a different guy standing there.

“Hey girl. Mind if I have a dance with you?” He smiled lazily at me. He was cute and all, but I had Alex.

“Yeah I do mind, so I am going to go back to my boyfriend.” I started to walk away, but the guy grabbed me again.

“I think your going to dance with me.” He started dragging me away. Not to the dance floor though, towords the exit. I struggled  and tried to get away.

“Stop! Let me go!” I bit down on his arm and kicked out and hit him in his oh so sensitive spot and kneeled over muttering bitch under his breath. I took off running to Alex by the drink bowl.

I went running up to him tears dripping down her face.

“Hey hey hey! What's wrong???” he asked me gripping my shoulders.

“Can we go Alex? I don't want to be here anymore!”

“Why?”

“Please can we go?? Like, right now!” I kept crying and glancing around to make sure that guy hadn't come back.

“Z, calm down and tell me whats wrong.”

“I need to get away thats whats wrong!” I took off out the door and Alex ran after me and spun me around as I burst into tears.

“WE NEED TO LEAVE NOW! PLEASE!” I screamed. He thought better of it and pulled me to his car. He opened the door and helped me inside, as he was about to shut the door, a figure loomed over him and I screamed and heard the sickening crunch of something hard colliding with the back of Alex's head and he slumped forward.

“HEY WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?” Louis yelled at the guy. I couldn't see him since he had a hood over his face. He grabbed my purse out of my hands and took off into the woods.

I got back out of the car.

“Alex! Alex! Wake up please!! ALEX!” I screamed and I thought he was dead and I was about to faint as Kayla and Louis ran up. They had followed Alex and I out the door to see what was wrong with me. Louis caught me and Kayla bent down next to Alex. I was crying so hard. I looked away. I didn't want to see Kayla's face when she said he was dead.

“Z, he's alive! Louis dial 911!” Kayla yelled. Wait, HES ALIVE??!!!

Louis was hurridly talking on his phone as Kayla and I moved Alex from underneath the car. I could feal him breathing and I slumped down on top of him and cried.

“Alex...” I moaned. I could hear more people coming out to see what was wrong and soon I could hear sirens. Alex still didn't wake up. The ambulance arrived along with the police. They loaded Alex up and I told them I wanted to go with them. Kayla and Louis were giving the police statements about what happened and I knew that they would come to me next, but first I had to get to the hospital to make sure that Alex was going to be ok. As we drove, I held Alex's hand and stopped crying. He would be so mad at himself for not protecting me and I had to be strong. It was time to stop being pitied upon and grow up. Sure I had every right to cry, but I knew that I had to be strong for when Alex woke up. We arrived at the hospital and they rushed Alex in and left me in the waiting room.
