You know, I know

chapter 17

Olivia

I saw him, the person of my nightmares. I saw Connor. Connor is my ex, whilst I was going out with him he would hit me. I would have burses all over me. I had to ware long sleeves and trousers all the time. Some times I would have to put make up on to cover the bruises on my face and neck.

I had to get away from there as quick as possible so I ran.

"OLIVIA!" Emma shouted but I couldn't stop, he was there. He is here.

I reached the exit and stopped. My heart was racing as well was my mind. Why is he here? What does he want? Does he want me?

I slid down the wall and sat on the cold pavement. I bought my knees up to my chest and rested my head on them. A pair of arms wrapped around me stiffened.

"Its me baby, are you okay?" Niall asked me as he pulled me into his chest.

"Niall I saw him" I looked up at him and he looked confused.

"I saw Connor Niall, Connor is here!"

"What!" He said as he pulled me up. "Come on" he said as he pulled me to the car. I get in the car and waited for Niall to come back with Reece and Emma.

Why would Connor be here? Does he want me? Is he waiting to kidnap me? Does he want to beat me?

My thought to the best of me and I screamed, I screamed the loudest as I could. People that were walking passed looked at the car, showing that they could hear me. I looked out the window and saw three figures running towards the car with three suitcases. They all jumped into the car and Niall put is foot down on the pedal and by no time we was on the motorway.

"Liv are you okay?" Emma asked

"Not really. Knowing that he's here terrifies me more than ever. I have no idea if he saw me or not but when I saw him he was looking right at me"

My hands are still shaking and my heart was still racing. What if he finds me? Did he see me? Does he even want me? Why is he here?

I can't be around him not after what happened. I was lucky to get away last time and I don't think I would be abele to do that ever again. What happens if he knows where I am? What will happen?

Flashback

I woke up from my nap on the sofa of Connors flat. I had bruises and cuts on my arms from the event that happened before I fell asleep. I quickly got up and went into the kitchen.

"I see your awake b***h" he snarled at me. I nodded slowly and got myself a glass of water.

"Why do you never talk?" he snarled again. I placed my water on the counter and got my tablets. The tablets that I got put on from the last time Connor beat me. I swallowed the tablets down with the water.

"Answer me!" he shouted and I took a step back from him.

"NO!" I screamed as he approached me, I knew what he was going to do .

"Answer me now Olivia! You know I don't like if when you don't talk!" he snarled as he gripped my wrists.

"Stop you're hurting me" I cried out. A single tear fell down my cheek. He lifted his first and punched me, once in my face and multiple times at my body.

He stepped away and walked out the front door as I slid down the cuboard. I sat on the floor crying and blood dripping from my cuts and nose.

I called Niall and he said he's on his way but before he got here Connor came back in.

"Get up!" he shouted but I didn't move
"Get the hell up Olivia" he screamed at me but I still didn't move. His fist came in contact with my body and face again.

Niall came running in followed by police and paramedics and that's the last thing I saw until I came unconscious.

End of flashback

My breathing was heavy and tears was falling down my face.

"Liv baby what's wrong" Niall asked from the drivers seat.

"I-I had another f-flashback" I stuttered.

The rest of the ride home was quite. Niall pulled into the garage and we all got out. I ran into the house and sat down on the sofa.

"Liv" Reece said as he sat beside me.

"I had another flashback Reece, I was doing so well until he showed up"

"I know you did Liv, i'm here. Please stay strong and we will sort this out okay"

I nodded and placed my head on his chest as he bought me into a hug. I can't do this, I just can't. He's always going to be following me.

"I'm going up to bed" I said and walked up the stairs instead of taking the lift. I reached the forth floor and changed into my night ware. I opened the balcony doors and walked out.

The night air hit my skin, my hair blew to the side as the wind blew. This is what life is, you will see people who you don't want to. It's time to forget because i'm living my dream here with Niall the one who I always wanted to be with. I'm living the dream right here, right now.

I rested my elbows on the barrier of the balcony as a pair of arms wrapped around me. I smiled into the night sky as Niall kissed my cheek.

This is what I want. I want to be with Niall till the end.

"You coming in, we are all going to watch a movie in the cinema room baby?"

"I would love to babe" I took his and in mine and we walked from our room and down the stairs.

We walked Into the cinema room and lied on the bed seat next to Reece and Emma.
Romeo and Juliet started playing as our servant bought in some wine and snacks for us.

"I love you Niall"
"I love you too Liv"
