The sirens get louder as the police cars approach the shop. I take a deep breath and pick up Skylar. I walk outside and one police officer approaches me.
"Alexia?" He asks and I nod. "Where were you held captive?" He asks.
"About a few miles down that way" I point in the direction of the house. An officer jumps in her car and goes off that way.
"Ok. We will do questions some other time. The most important thing now is getting you home. Do you have any one you can call?"
"No" I say looking down. My parents are dead and I don't have Cameron or Amy's number memorized. "May I ask, where exactly am I?"
"Chino Hills, California" he says and my heart drops.
"What?" I stutter, "that's not possible, I live in Florida!" I yell. I clam down and take a deep breath.
"Ooohh," the officer starts. "Um. Well-"
The other police car pulls up.
"I check the whole house, no one was there." He says. "We will investigate further, but as of now, the house is vacant"
I look towards the officer and he looks and me.
"How did I get from Florida to California?!"
"The must have put you on some sleeping gas it seems, and drove all the way here. Which would take days" he says.
"Please, I just need to get back to Florida" I say.
"Alright. Take this, we will drive you to the airport" he gives me some police pass thing as I get into the car, and put Skylar in the back. I get into the front.
"So is she your child?" He asks and starts the engine. I almost laugh at his question, but realizing it would be rude, I hold it in.
"Sir, I'm 18, she is my sister" I state. The rest of the car ride was silence, while I stared out the window, remembering every turn for no real reason.
-----------
"Thank you" I say to the officer as I enter the airport with Skylar. We board the plane but questions keep on ringing in my head.
What if Luke and Morgan are coming back to get me? The officer said they weren't in the house, and to be honest, I'm terrified. He could be anywhere, and I mean anywhere! Luke is the one I'm most scared of.
Another question pops in my head.
What if Amy and Cameron and the other guys are out looking for me? What if they get hurt? They shouldn't risk their lives for me.
I'm nothing special.
The worst of all the questions swarms in my brain.
What if Luke got Cameron? What if he is torturing Cameron right now? Or Amy? I did this to him. I'm putting Cameron through hell. It's all my fault.
Everything is all my fault.
And now I'm sure as hell,
That I should have never Come Back.
