~ Evelyn

I sit alone in my room, with a cup of tea in my hands, in front of my window. I love just watching outside, while listening to some relaxing music. It's like everyday is a sunday then. It's like everything around me is okay, nothing to think about, nothing to worry about. But then, one single text can ruin everything. I look at my phone and see a unknown number. 

You look so relaxed. But not for long princess. You are home alone, aren't you? You can expect some company over (: xx T

My eyes widen. I quickly dial Liam's number.

"Eve ? Everything alright?" his voice sounds worried.

"Thom just texted me. I think he is outside. He said that I look relaxed and that I should expect company soon" I say. 

"Where are you?" 

"In front of my window, in my bedroom" I answer. I hear Liam sigh, not an annoyed one, but a nervous one.

"Get away from the window, make sure your doors are locked. I'm going to get you, you're going to stay with me. See you in a few" then he hangs up. I run downstairs and check my doors. They're all locked. I go back upstairs and pack a few clothes and stuff. I make a note for my parents, who won't be home, but you never know. I put on my shoes and wait. Liam texts me that he is in front of my house, so I grab my keys, go outside and lock my door. He is in his car. I walk rather fast over to it and dump my stuff in the back. I put my seatbelt on and kiss Liam. 

"Thanks Li" I say and he nods. 

"Look Eve, I had to explain some things to my mum, as she wanted to know why you needed to stay, so she knows that Thom is after you, just not the reason" he explains while driving. I nod. 

"Also, she thinks you should go to the police" he mumbles. I turn my head to look at him. He is looking at the road, but I can see that he is trying to not look at me, whatever it takes. He doesn't wanna see the look I have right now.

"I can't" 

"I know that. My mum doesn't" I just stare out of the window, not wanting a discussion about his mum. We arrive at his house around 10 minutes later. I get out of the car and grab my stuff. Liam opens his front door and I put my shoes off, after he closed the door again. I put my bag down in the hallway and walk after Liam into the livingroom. Karen attacks me with a hug when she sees me. I know it's because of everything what is going on, not that she is happy to see me. But I don't care. I need a hug right now. Karen goes back to cooking, without saying anything, which I'm happy about. Liam and  I get upstairs and I put my bag down. 

"You can put some clothes in my closet, so you can stay over and always have clothes here" he says. I nod and unpack my bag. I put some shirts and tank tops along with his and I hang up some jeans next to his. I put my shoes in his shoe closet and put my makeup in his bathroom. We then just sit down on his bed and listen to some music. 

We are walking through school together. 

"I don't wanna leave you alone" he mumbles when we're at my locker, and we both have different classes. 

"That's going to be alright Liam" I suddenly hear Amy's voice, before I can say something myself. I have biology, which means I have it with Amy. Liam nods and quickly kisses me. 

"I love you" he softly says. I smile.

"I love you too Li" Liam smiles and kisses me again, before walking away. Amy stands next to me. I close my locker and lean against it. 

"Are you okay ? Liam told us what happened yesterday. Also, about what his mum thinks. Maybe you should go to the cops. Maybe they can do something about it" she says. 

"I think they will only get angry when I get the police involved, don't you think" I say. She seems to think about this, then she nods. 

"I just wanna help you, but I don't know how anymore" she mumbles while we walk to class. I just smile slightly. 

"There is nothing anybody can do. I can't do anything either. They are smart and I know that at one point, they're going to get me" I say. Amy nods sadly. Everyone knows it. They will get me at a point where I am alone, where I have no one around me. They will have their chance at some point. And they're waiting for that chance. And I can't help but feel nervous, whenever I am alone, even if it is for just one second. I can't concentrate in school anymore, because I'm watching everyone, everywhere. I'm just scared they will run into the classroom, and take me with them. Or that they will run in and shoot me. That's all I can think about. I can't get distracted anymore. I can't even seem to think normally anymore. I'm constantly thinking about what can happen, to my friends, family, or even myself. It's like I'm haunted, and no one can safe me. 

I'm sitting on the couch in Liam's house. Liam is showering and Karen is baking a cake. They have some kind of family party tomorrow evening, and Karen makes the cake, obviously. My phone starts ringing and I answer, without looking at the caller ID.

"Hello?" 

"Hello, is this Evelyn?" a deep voice asks.

"Uh yea, this is her, who is this?" 

"This is Jack, from the police. I am calling you with some bad news" I shoot up. My eyes are wide, before I even know what's going on.

"What is it?" I say, my voice small. I see that Karen has turned her attention to me. She looks worried and I stare at her, while listening to the police officer. 

"Your parents have been in a car accident. I'm affraid they didn't make it, I'm sorry" and I just freeze.
