Harry's POV

Its been seventy two hours... three days... since she's been missing.

Lincoln and I haven't slept since, Nova and Niall have been around the city putting up posters everywhere. The guys have comed up and down the streets and Zara's favorite places  looking for her. Lincoln and I have met with various detectives and the sheriff, all their leads end up in dead ends.

We currently sat in my car outside one of Zara's favorite pizza joints, Lincoln beside me, deep in thought.

"I'm going crazy Harry, not knowing where she's at... if she's even-"

"Don't sat it" I shoot, unable to bear the thought of her being no more.

"It's been three days Harry... what are we supposed to do?"

"Keep looking for her, don't lose hope. She needs us right now..."

Zara's POV

I don't know how long Austin has kept me hostage, it's felt like years. I can't even begin to imagine what Lincoln's going through... how Nova feels...Harry. The last time I saw him he told me he was in love with me... his eyes held mine and I found nothing but love for me, the complete opposite of what I see in Austins.

After the bath incident he locked me in there for hours, until I begged for him to let  me out, he did and he made me kiss him. I gave my all into the kiss and thankfully he bought it giving me warm clothes, he allowed me to sit and watch tv with him in the living room. Bringing me out of the basement, I was finally able to see where I was at. The Hollywood sign visible through the window, meaning I was somewhere in the west of LA.

While watching tv he dosed off, I spotted his cell phone off to one side, reaching for it I dialed 911, just before I pressed the call button he woke up and saw what I was up to. He then began to beat me, he hit me so hard I passed out but not before hearing a loud cracking noise, pain from my arm followed. I'm sure he broke it, I'm also sure the pain from it made me pass out as well.

Its been a two days since he broke my arm, I'm only sure of it because I've counted two sunrises. I've never had a broken arm, Luke, Daniel, Beau and Cameron all broke either their leg or arm, when we were younger, I remember being ten and running to the park hearing that Cameron broke his arm. I heard his yells before I spotted Link and our friends surrounding him, he was crying, that was the first and last time I ever saw Cameron cry.

I now know what he went through, the pain was imaginable, sitting beside the door in the room I was locked in I faintly knocked on the door, the pain was imaginable,  I've never experienced something like this.

"Austin please, it hurts so much" I cry out, "I'll be good I promise."

Hearing shuffling coming from the hallway my heart beat sped up, "If I give you some medicine you promise you'll be good?"

"Yes, yes I promise" I croaked out.

"Ah, what are you supposed to call me?"

Closing my eyes and taking in a breathe I say it, "I promise I'll be good baby."

Once those words left my mouth he unlocked the door, helping me up to my feet pain shot up my body, everywhere hurt.

"Don't cry sweetheart, you're going to be all better after this" he spoke sitting me down on the couch and shoving a couple of pills down my throat, "That's it baby, there you go."

Taking in deep breaths I take his hand in mine, "Thank you" I say as I feel myself slip away. The last thing I see is his smile... it still haunts me to this day.
