She Will Be Loved

She Will Be Loved (Chapter 8)

Hannahs POV

"Adam?" I called out as I walked down the hallway. The power had went out and it was storming. I am scared of both. Using my phone as a light I open the door to Adams room, only to find his bed empty. "Adam?" I call out his name again as I look into his bathroom then his closet and finally his inspiration room. Maybe he's down stairs? Just then a loud crack of lightening shakes the house, making me nearly jump out of my skin. I hurried down the hallway to the steps. Touching my feet to the last step I instantly have a feeling of uneasiness rush over me. "Adam where are you?" He's nowhere to be found. Poking my head out into the garage I see he's not there either. I start to close the door and go to turn around, that's when I feel it. A familiar sensation of a cold steel blade pressed to my throat. A gloved hand covers my mouth before I can scream. "Shh, you scream I kill you both." The smell of Vodka and Red bull stings my nose. Bobby! I try to get away from his grasp but he just holds me tighter. "Now now, you better behave or this will end very badly. Wouldn't want anything to happen to your new friend now would we?" I slowly shake my head for no. "That's a good girl, now move." He pushes me into the garage, the knife pressed further into my skin. Tears start to sting my eyes, what is going to happen? Where is Adam? Is he ok? Bobby spins me around so I am facing him, "My my my, I have missed you baby. Have you missed me?" I cower under his eyes, afraid of what is coming. "ANSWER ME!" He brings his hand across my face hard, knocking me into Adams car. As I slowly bring myself back up to a standing position he grabs my throat, choking my slightly. "I asked you a question." Tilting my head back I launch a wad of spit into his face, "Go to hell." He simply squeezes harder as he wipes away my spit with his other hand. "Wrong answer." He kicks my knee backwards, shattering it with his steel toe boots. I scream out in pain as I fall to the ground. "Looks like someone forgot their manners." He brings his foot into my ribs with a loud CRACK, perfectly timed with the thunder. Grabbing me by my hair he drags me back up to my feet. "YOU are MY girl, YOU do as I say!! YOU are MINE!!" The blade finds it's way into my left side, piercing through my skin as if it was butter and connecting with bone. I scream so loud my ears ring. He forms a sick smile on his lips as he twist the blade further in. My head is starting to spin as he flings me back onto the floor. "You disgust me Hannah, you are absolutely pathetic." His boot connects with my small body once again, pushing me further across the floor. "You can never run from me Hannah, I will ALWAYS find you." He turns his back for a second to grab a tire iron that hung on the wall. I take that as my chance to crawl away. A hand on my foot lets me know my attempt was unsuccessful. "Where do you think you're going?" He drags me back to him as I kick and scream attempting to get away from him. "ADAM HELP ME PLEASE!!! ADAM!!!" My screams echo off the walls. Bobby sighs as he throws me against the wall, bruising my arms as he makes me stand to my feet. Holding me by my forearms he forces me to dangle from the floor, "Looks like I am going to have to teach you a lesson. You don't leave me, I will always know where you are. I will always come back for you. YOU ARE MINE!" He stabs the knife deep into my abdomen, his arms snaking around me holding me tight to him as everything begins to get fuzzy. I continue my weak struggles as I hear him whisper in my ear, "You are going to die in my arms." I feel my body giving up on me as my feeble struggles no longer have any effect. At that moment a image of Adam comes to my mind. With the last little strength I have in my tiny body I breathe out his name, "Adam, save me."
