Take Care | Channing Tatum

Chapter Nine - No One To Save You

What am I supposed to do now? Should I run? But then he will notice me. But what if he already noticed me? He can't see me. It's midnight so it's dark and it's windy so he possibly didn't even see me. I should run. Can I run? Calculate it Vanessa, can you run down the whole neighborhood without being seen? Lol no. But I have to. Why am I even running? Oh right, he was a pervert/psychopath teacher.

As I was thinking should I run or not, a hand touched me by the shoulder. Fuck.

"Hah, surprised by seeing you here Vanessa. You know, it's not appropriate for a woman to walk all alone in this neighborhood at this time. So so dangerous. But luckily here I am! " Said Mr. Lucas. I should've run when I could. But it's not too late right? Run.

I kicked him in the nuts and started to run down the street like a cat on fire. It was so dark that I don't even know where am I going but this ain't gonna stop me. I don't wanna go through all those things again. That man tried to rape me for Gods sake! C'mon legs don't let me down.

I started to see some street lights, great I'm not that far from the town.

I tried to run faster, I could hear his footsteps.

I was getting tired but I can't stop. Not now. Suddenly a hand grabbed my hair and pulled it, with the shock I fall down, I tried to get up but he started to kick me in the head. That pain was unbelievable. I shut my eyes hoping that this was just a nightmare.

It wasn't.

He kept kicking and kicking different places of my body. I couldn't even open my eyes. I could feel the blood coming through my hair to my face. I was scared to open my eyes, I thought that they were going to bleed too. The pain was getting bigger and bigger each second. And now it was impossible for me to fight against the pain.

The last thing I remember is a hand grabbing me in the feet and pulling me into a car.

I opened my eyes to a terrible,terrible headache. I was smelling like dry blood. I tried to move but then I realized I was tied to a chair. I couldn't even move my hands, they were tied too tightly. I tried to shout and guess what? My mouth was tied too.

I'm trapped in my rapist teachers house, tied to a chair and get kicked several times in the head. Best spring break ever!!

I need to get out of here, otherwise I don't even want to imagine what's going to happen.

" It's 2 days Jonah. TWO FUCKING DAYS. Where the hell is she? Fuck it. I don't need this bullshit in my life. I'm not a toy and life is not a game. She said she liked me and we kissed and why is she acting all different now? She would never leave without leaving a message or a note. I know she's going through hard times but what did I do? I was here for her and she just left. I hate when people act all different. Fine. Two can play this game. She left without saying anything, she didn't call in 2 days. You know what? I don't give a freaking fuck. If she doesn't want me then I don't want her too. She can't play with me like this Jonah!" I said then take a spit from my coke.

"Dude, slow down. You don't even know why she left. Maybe she has a good reason huh? You can't just cut off your whole relationship like that. You know you like her. Just wait until she says something." Jonah said with a calm voice, I know he is worried too.

I need some fresh air, or maybe alcohol. Yep I definitely need some alcohol. I stepped outside and get into my car.

"And Channing?" Jonah said yelling through the door.

"Yeah?"

"Don't do anything stupid."

"Yeah whatever." I said then I went to my favorite bar.
