The Blizzard Competition

"Guys, what's taking Ally so long?" Trish asked. We decided to relax and watch some TV since we finished decorating the tree. Ally went to get her phone about ten minutes ago but she still hasn't come back up.

"You don't think Eric did anything, do you?" Dez asked, worry evident in his voice. My eyes widened and I mentally slapped myself.

"I'm so stupid!" I shouted, as I bolted down to the basement, Trish and Dez hot on my trail. The second my feet reached the basement floor, I saw Eric walk out of the closet. A smirk was plastered on his face.

"Where's Ally!?" I yelled as I grabbed his shirt collar. Since he was pretty strong, he pried my hands off him and walked upstairs. "Guys, can you get rid of him?" I asked, Trish and Dez. They nodded and went after him.

I ran towards the closet and opened the door. My eyed widened when I saw Ally on the floor, unconscious. I bent down and picked her up bridal style. I carefully laid her down on the couch and sat down by her feet.

"Als!" What the hell did he do to her? "Baby, wake up!" A piece of hair fell on her face so I gently moved it. I felt tears prick my eyes but I didn't let them fall. "Als, please wake up." I whispered.

After a few minutes, she started to stir so I placed my hands on her shoulders to calm her down. Her eyes slowly opened and she squinted. "Austin?"

"Yeah, Als. What happened?" She slowly sat up and placed a hand on her head. "Did he hurt you?" My voice was low but you could tell that I was angry.

"I-I tried getting my phone without Eric noticing that I was down here, but he grabbed it before I could. When I tried snatching it out of his hand, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me into the closet. He t-then…" She stopped and let a few tears fall. "He then kissed me and I couldn't get him to stop."

That son of a bitch kissed her! I swear I could kill him! "But when I found you, you were on the floor unconscious."

"That's because when I was able to get him off me, he got really mad and slammed my head against the door." My jaw dropped slightly and my eyes widened.

"Als," I spoke softly. "We need to tell the police about him."

"I-I know." She whispered. "But we can't today because of the blizzard."

"Then we'll go as soon as we're allowed to leave the house." She nodded. "You gonna be okay?"

"Yeah. But where's Eric?"

"Trish and Dez got rid of him because if they didn't, I would've done something I'd regret."

She slowly stood up and I followed suit. "Damn, my head really hurts." She muttered as she held her head.

"Come on, let's go stairs and I'll get you some Advil." I gently placed my hand on her back and led her upstairs. "Go on up to Rydel's room and lay down. I'll be right there with the Advil." She nodded and I kissed her temple before she went up to Rydel's room.
