Knox's POV

I slide open the bolt on the door and swing it open. I look around the dark room and see the water given to her is un touched. Then I look around some more and see her, huddled in the corner.

She looks like shit.

"Get up," I say.

She looks at me, terrified and shrinks back into the corner even further.

"God damn it! I said get up!"

She looks at me, even more scared than before and tries to move but falls over, hitting her head hard on the concrete. I'm about to tell her to stop acting like a bitch, then I see blood pooling beneath her head.

Shit!

I run over to her and yell for help.

Finn rushes over to the door, "What ha- Oh shit."

He runs over, rips off his shirt and puts it beneath her head. I don't think she even realizes it. I hold the shirt to the wound and pick her up as gently as I can. She opens her mouth to speak, but nothing comes out.

She's so thin...

I rush to the car, with her limp body in my arms. 

"She's losing consciousness! She won't respond to anything!"

"She's gone, Knox."

"I never should have put her in there! Fuck, Colton start the car!"

"I don't know if she'll make it, man. That's a lot of blood."

We make it to the hospital and we run her inside. We are rushing around and a nurse sees the blood. She calls for a stretcher, and I lay her down. The next thing I know, she's being taken away in a crown of people.

~~~~~~~~~

I sit in the waiting room and wait for a doctor, or someone, to come out and tell me what needs to happen.

"Mister Knox Stevens?"

I stand up swiftly along with the other five guys. Colton went to pick up the others and brought them to the hospital.

"Me. I'm Knox." I say walking forward.

We walk down the hall away from everyone. The face she wears doesn't look promising, and I hold my breath.

"She's going to have to have stitches once we stop the bleeding. You're lucky Mister Stevens. Your friend's gonna be okay."

I let out the breath I was holding and the nurse speaks. "You can go and see her in just a few minutes. We want to get the stitches done."

"Okay." I walk over to a chair and take a seat.

"Is she okay man? The look on her face was pretty grim."

"Yeah. She'll be okay."

They all let out a breath of relief, even Malachi.

"When this is all over, she can call me Fedora the Explora all she fucking wants."

"Yeah man. You're lucky."

"I know. I never should have put her down there in the first place."

"You know you shouldn't have. I told you to get her out when you told me what you did."

"I know okay?!"

"Do you like her?"

I look at Zach with a mixture of horror and disgust. 

"No." I say, and shudder.

"Okay then." Zach says

"Hell yeah. He loves her." Owen says with a smirk, and we all look at him in shock.

"Did you just...?" My mouth is hanging open, and I'm sure I look like a dying fish right about now.

"Shut up, dumbass." He shoots back.

"I'm so proud." Colton says and wipes away a fake tear.

Eventually a nurse comes in and tells us that we can go into the hospital room to see her.

"She's sleeping at the moment. She has a concussion, but if her head hurts call in the doctor and he'll give her some medication."

I thank her and she gives us the room number. We all walk in there and I pull a chair over to the side of the bed.

God I'm so stupid. How could I put her in there? After what her father would do to her? That's one of many reasons I took pleasure in killing the bastard.

FUCK.

I put my elbows on my knees and my head in my hands. I sit there like that for I don't know how long before she stirs and I look over into her eyes.

I see the hurt and fear in them. Then and there, I promise to never again allow those eyes to be filled with anything but happiness.

Never again.

Finally! After all this time, I present, CHAPTER FOUR! I haven't written in a long time. I'm really truly sorry. I've had chapters written, but my computer was not accessible. (I don't write well on my phone.) I will try to edit the next few and get them published soon.

Thank you for your patience!

XOXOXO
