Alexandra's POV:
i woke up to that same smell and sound of the beeping machines that would never leave me. i was hooked up to all different types of wires and doo hikeys and gadgets i'd never seen before. i looked around and noticed the room was empty. i bet zach was sick of my sickness. i don't even remember what happened after he left to get the kids. i just know my head is pounding. i was laying in the room for 3 hours until i finally realized it was night. Zach was probably home with the kids since they had school in a few hours. i looked over and saw my phone on the charger on the opposite side of the room. i hit the help button and it was broken. great. i disconnected some of the wires because i wasn't going to lay here for another 5 hours waiting for someone to check on me. i tried to stand up and fell to my knees. i used the chair next to me for support and basically crawled over to the desk. i reached up and my phone wound up slipping off and landing on my thigh. ouch. as i was about to crawl back, my phone went off.

unknown number:
good luck getting back in bed.

what? i thought to myself before all the lights in my room went off. even the machines. i didn't wait for my eyes to adjust to the darkness, instead i pulled out my phone and turned the flashlight on. i pulled my weak and aching body up slowly. and looked around before i spotted the door. i limped over with all the energy i had left. i finally reached the door and began catching my breath, i went to turn the knob. i was locked in here. i fell down and sat with my back against the door. who was doing this? i wasn't going to give up. i slowly turned myself around sitting criss cross facing the door and pounded on it as hard as i could. the glass was sound proof and what felt like bulletproof, i couldn't see but i knew my arms were bruised and my knuckles bleeding. i left my phone on the other side of the room not knowing i would be locked in. i dragged myself across, feeling my heart giving up. tears trickled down my face while i kept telling myself i can't give up. "got it." i breathed out as i picked it up. i hit zach's contact name and hit the call button. "Alex, you are awake?" "yes but zach-" the line disconnected and my phone turned black. and a message popped up:
                 
         I'm gonna have fun hurting you.

I realized i wasn't in the hospital at all.
