EVERY BREATH

T W E N T Y - E I G H T

I look at all the flowers in the park there super pretty. I hold myself from calling Luna and asking her at what time she'll be here. She asked me not to text her back after telling me to meet her here at this secret place. She said she needed my help and that she couldn't tell Enzo because she was afraid of his reaction. I stop walking because feeling a kick from my baby girl. She'll be in my arms in no time. I can't wait to meet her and love her forever.

"Hey beautiful" I hear someone say and I look up. It's Josh but I don't understand why he's here. There's a bunch of guys with him which I find extremely strange and scary.

"What are you doing here Josh?" I ask taking a step back.

"I came for you. So I can take you home" he says walking towards me and I try not to panic.

"Josh... please don't" I say shaking my head while tears fill my eyes and I hold my stomach. I don't want him to harm her.

"Im not a monster. I won't hurt you if you cooperate with me" he says and I can't seem to get enough air in my lungs.

"I'll do anything" I tell him in a hurry because I don't know how to get out of this situation. I might hurt my baby if I run.

"Then come with me. Stop moving away" he says getting irritated.

"Josh...I want to go home. I don't want to go anywhere with you" I tell him. Pleading that he comes to his senses.

"You were meant for me not for Ace. I treated you so good. I took my time, waited for you. I just don't know what you see in that piece of shit. I wouldn't have put you through all that pain. I wouldn't have hide you. I just think you like to be treated horribly" he says stepping close to me and grabbing me. His grip gets really tight but I don't care about the pain.

"I feel in love. No one could ever change that Josh. I'm sorry if I hurt you. I didn't see it. I'm really sorry" I tell him in hope he let's me go.

"Don't say that! You're the love of my life and I'm yours no matter how much you try to deny it. You're just brainwashed by him" he says furiously shaking me.

I get really light headed and I feel like fainting. I try to fight it because I can't faint he'll end up kidnapping me. I start to cry panicking because I can't control myself. I feel weak and fall into his arms. He smiles and everything goes dark.

At first everything is blurry but then it becomes clear. I'm in a huge room decorated in all white and grey. I emidiatly feel my stomach and my baby seems to be okay because she moves when I panic. I stand up and notice it's dark outside. I have different clothes on. I am now in a night gown. A tear escapes my eye as I think about his hands on my body. I wish I was at home with my baby and James. I need to find a way out of her fast. I can't be dumb about it. I need to plan it out. I walk to the door and open it. There's a large man standing in front of the door. He turns around and looks at me.

"Sorry you can't leave this room" he says emotionless. He's like a stone.

"I need to get out of this place" I tell him seeing if I can find any type of emotions.

"Not my problem" he says sternly obviously irritated.

"Can I talk to Josh?" I ask politely even though he's not being very helpful. He pulls his phone and dials.

"I need the boss up in the main room. She's awake" he says and closes the door. He's so rude I just want to slap him. It feels so weird in this house. I can't believe Luna tricked me. I can't blame her maybe she didn't even know about this. I hope I get out of here soon I don't want my baby coming and James not be here. The door opens and Josh steps into the room.

"Good you're awake" he says calmly and I don't want him near me.

"Does Luna know about this?" I ask. I can't help but wonder.

"No she doesn't but she'll soon know" he says and it gives me chills.

"I can't believe you guys are related. She doesn't deserve such a disgusting family" I spit out in rage.

"We have the same mother not Father. That piece of shit threw me out when I was two. You don't know our family to speak on us like that" he says furiously getting close to me. "Everything wrong with my life is because of him. He killed every ounce of goodness I had left in me. I suffered in the hands of the monster he gave me too. I was abused for years" he says and tears begin to pierce his eyes.

"I'm sorry you had it rough, but I have never harmed you. I don't understand why your so dedicated to me. I didn't want to be mean to you. I wanted to be your friend not your girlfriend. I'm sorry I just don't love you like that" I tell him crying because I feel like such a bad person.

"Yeah well I'm used to not being loved by anyone. I really thought you were different. You were the first to treat me with such tenderness and you were so loving. I couldn't help falling for you. You were the perfect women in my eyes. You were loving, funny, cute, and beautiful. For once I thought I could have something, but you made sure to destroy it all" he says clearly hurt and I begin to sob.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you...ever" I say honestly.
