Save Me Tonight (One Direction Fanfic)

Chapter 21

This is it, I’m about to die. I stared at the sparkling knife, letting the shine glide across my eyes. I felt a tear roll down my cheek, surprisingly I’m not crying that much. I guess because I know in just a few seconds, all of my problems will be gone. Flashes of Harry’s green eyes flickered through my mind and Niall’s cute Irish accent, Liam’s seriousness, Zayn’s deep personality. I felt like Louis is right beside me. Breathing on my neck, telling me he loves me. Isabella, Violet, Vanessa, and Cameron, I love them so much. At least I will get to see my parents, wherever I end up.

“I’m not going to kill you yet.” He whispered. I felt the tip of his blade dance around the lining of my lips. It didn’t cut into my skin, it more tickled. I stared into his eyes; they looked as if they are deep dark pits. He smiled, while dancing shapes in my skin.

“Why.” I managed to squeeze out. He chuckled a little bit before continuing to fiddle with his knife against my face. Suddenly he slashed my cheek; I cried out in pain and tried to struggle out of his lock. He brought his tongue to my wound, now gushing blood, and slowly slid his tongue up and down against it. I squeezed my eyes, pretending this wasn’t happening.

“You taste good. I want one more thing before I rid you.” He whispered, his lips grazing my ear. He let go of my wrists and began to un-button my shorts. I realized that my arms were now free. I threw my fist against his jaw, the knife in his hand flying through the air. I quickly got up and ran towards the far end of the kitchen, watching as Jonah screams on the ground. He stared at me with pure fury. I grabbed the body spray out of my purse as he came racing towards me. I sprayed him directly in the eyes, expecting it to be effective. It wasn’t, he quickly recovered and ripped my purse from my grip. He grasped onto my phone and threw it across the room. I heard a button click before it hit the ground. I turned around and grabbed a giant kitchen knife from the counter; I held it up like it was a shield.

“I’m not afraid of you anymore Jonah! I’m different!” I yelled my eyes stinging from tears. He began to laugh, his laugh quickly turning to a snarl.

“You’ve always been afraid!” He began, “Don’t you get it? I thought you were pretty, I wanted you. After your parents died you were in a weak state, all you wanted was love. I was there for you! I got addicted to the idea of you being my personal slave! I’ll never be sorry for that, for anything. It’s who I am, you would never leave me. You were and always will be, broken. Desperately needing to be saved, you won’t stab me, you’re a coward.”

I screamed in frustration. Everything he is saying is true, I’ve always known it. I was too busy waiting to actually unlock the safe where I keep the truth hidden. I’ve always been waiting for someone to save me. But what Jonah doesn’t understand is: someone already did.

“I want you to know that I never missed you. If you think I did, you’re insane. Fuck you, say hi to the devil for me.” I spat before thrusting the knife towards him. He quickly dodged it, but not quickly enough. I slashed his thigh, blood spraying across his jeans. He kicked me in the stomach and I doubled back. Right when I was about to tackle him I felt a shard blade go straight into my stomach. I gurgled before looking down to see Jonah slipping the knife out of my body. He stabbed me. I fell to my knees, clutching my wound. I felt the blood flood into my hands, and I began to cough and sputter. I noticed red goo flood from my mouth. Before I could do anything I began to choke on my own blood. I felt my vision go in and out of focus as I fell on my side.

“Stop! You’re under arrest for assault with a weapon and attempted murder!” Is all I heard before I became consumed in darkness.

“I think she’s waking up!”

“Niall, how would you know that?”

“She blinked!”

“No, you probably blinked.”
