Tortured (A Matthew Espinosa Fanfic)

After Party

Zoey and I had gone back to the hotel room to put on some of our newly purchased and signed merchandise to wear it to the after party.

We drove to the party and were let in by some really huge scary security guard.

There were so many people at the party. Only VIPs were allowed in, but I guess a lot of people had bought VIPs. There was a pool in the middle of the giant courtyard, and a big beach ball was being tossed around.

We walked around, not really sure what to do. I spotted Matthew. I dragged Zoey with me to see him. He saw me when he turned around, and he ran over to me.

"Victoria! Hey! I was actually just talking about you." he said, rubbing the back of his neck and giving me a shy smile. Zoey whispered in my ear, "I'm gonna go find Hayes." and gave me a thumbs up and a wink as she walked away.

"So..." I said. "You were talking about me?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Umm...yeah. I was telling some of my friends how cool you are!" Matthew beamed. I laughed.

"That's so sweet of you! So can I ask you a--" I was cut off by the sound of a gunshot.

Everyone dropped to the ground and started to panic. My heart was pounding so hard I thought it might burst. I looked around, but I was disoriented and deafened from the loudness of the shot.

All of the people at the party started screaming and almost broke the gate trying to run out. I tried to ask people what happened but no one would listen.

Then a thought clouded my mind. "ZOEY!" I screamed. I looked around frantically but I couldn't see her. I ran over near the door to the building and saw Cam. He looked like he was about to throw up. I asked what was wrong and he lifted his hand off of his stomach to show blood soaking through his shirt.

Cam was the one who had been shot.

"Help!! I need help over here NOW!!" I screeched. No one came to help because everyone was too busy trying to leave the party. "Oh my god, Cam!" I put his arm around my shoulder and grabbed his waist to help him walk. I needed to get him out of here.

We limped over near the exit, but before we reached it I saw a dark figure. Something hard hit the back of my neck and the last thing I remember was falling. Everything went black.
