Irma's pov...

When no opened the door I seen something I never thought I would see.... It was niall and Carlos's girlfriend making out in the hall. The boys immediately tried to push me back into the house. I looked at carlos and he was frozen in the hall just staring at them. I pushed my way through the boys and ran to carlos and hugged him.

He looked down at me and pushed me when I fell i screamed making the other boys and the " happy couple" kissing stop and look at me the boys helped me up But carlos began yelling. " ITS YOUR FAULT IF SHE WOULD HAVE WALKED IN THE HOUSE WITH US SHE WOULDN'T HAVE DONE THIS NOW LOOK WHAT YOU DID YOU RUINED MY LIFE WHY ARE YOU EVEN AROUND JUST GO FALL IN A HOLE AND NEVER COME BACK!" he said and stormed off. " irma he doesn't mean that you know he loves you!" Brian said helping me up and trying to hug me.

I pushed him back and walked inside as niall and the boys tried to call me back out. I locked myself in the apartment and cried and cried. That's when I got a text I picked up my phone and unlocked it to find a text from "the stalker" it said : " he wasn't good for you anyways you deserve so much better but don't worry the apartment will be fine ill watch it". I messaged back " what do you mean you'll watch the apartment I'm not leaving I can't afford to go anywhere but stay home". The stalker replied with " really check your front door the boys are gone open it up bad look what's on the floor".

I opened the door and slid the envelope in then shut the door before anyone can come in or see me. I sat against the door and opened the envelope to see a paper folded inside. I unfolded the paper to see it was a round trip ticket to California. I grabbed my phone and texted the stalker : " why are you doing this? And is it real?" i got the reply of " yes its real and because you need some time away the plane leaves tonight at midnight so you can sneak out without the boys seeing you so go pack hurry and you'll be gone for 2 weeks".

I ran to the room and got my suit cases out of the closet and began packing. The whole time I packed I thought about what I would do in Cali and who I would meet. After packing I looked at the time and it was 10:30 I decided to head out and get a taxi to the airport. I grabbed my bags and turned everything off and made sure the doors were locked then I walked out. As I was walking down the hall way the one thing I didn't want to happen happened.

Dale opened the door to their apartment just as I was walking by and seen me. " IRMA! Wait hold on talk to me!" he said as I took off running down the hall to the elevator. As I was running I hear him say" Guys Irma's out and she has a suit case she is laving us!! hurry up lets get her!!" I pushed the button and I got in quickly and shut the doors just as they made it to the elevator.

I made it to the bottom and ran out the apartment building and down the street. I could hear them following me, the footsteps from the boys so I quickly flagged down a taxi and told them to step on it to the airport. Just as we drove off the boys seen me in the taxi and tried to get in but thankfully there was a easy axis to the road and we made it away.

Not even five minutes into the ride I began getting texts and calls from the boys. It got so bad that my phone kept glitching so I just turned it off. After 30 minutes we made it to the airport and I paid the taxi and grabbed my bags. I walked to the gate where my flight was and I waited in the chairs there after getting my Starbucks.

After 30 minutes of waiting I finally heard my flight being called and I gathered my things and went to my gate while I was walking I heard footsteps running towards me then I heard " irma wait please". I turned around and seen carlos running after me I continued to walk to my gate and I gave my ticket to the flight attendant just as carlos caught up to me. He grabbed my arm and tried to spin me around to face him but I broke free of his grip and I continued walking onto the plane just as security grabbed him and took him away.

As I was walking I felt tears falling down my cheeks and all I could hear was his voice yelling "irma irma please come back I'm sorry!". It took everything in my body not to turn around. I've always had a soft spot for carlos he's been there longer than anyone else. Longer then rita, brian, Erick , and dale. He was also my first love he's always been my everything we've always been close too. So when he told me that back at the apartment it hurt because it was coming from him.

I walked onto the plane and put my carry on in the overhead compartments then I sat down and turned my phone back on. Immediately my phone would not stop vibrating from all the notifications. I looked at my phone after it stopped vibrating and seen I had 200 missed calls from brian, erick, dale, and niall alone. Then I had 70 from just carlos. The messages were even worse brian , Erick, Dale,and niall sent me over 100 messages and Carlos had like 100 too. I ignored them all and I put on my playlist from SoundCloud and pressed play.

I didn't realize it but I had drifted off to sleep and I was woken up by a flight attendant to let me know we had arrived. I looked out of the window and seen a beautiful view of the sky it was sunny and bright . I grabbed my things and rushed off the plane and to the luggage pick up.

As I was waiting for my bag I got a notification from "the stalker" it read " I hope you enjoy your trip and your hotel is at this address under your name" attached to the text was a address to a very expensive hotel. I replied back " that's way to expensive im sorry I can't do this I can't take this i need to stay somewhere else i can't afford that!". Immediately I got a reply from "the stalker" and it read " don't worry its all paid for and there is money waiting for you there you don't have to spend anything for your own for the next two weeks have fun and nothing is refundable " he said. I sat there shook and stared at my phone.
