Chapter Thirty One

Leah's POV

I don't know where I am. The bag is still over my head, and I hear the sound of the waves flashing onto the pillars of the dock. At this point, I'm going to cooperate with them. I have no idea what they are planning on doing to me but I can tell that it's not pretty. I hear the girls mumbling off to each other, but I can't make out what they're saying exactly.

Out of nowhere, I hear a car pull up. It's distant, but it's not that far. I'm scared that it's something even worse. What if this was like one of those movies where they take girl and lock her away. It's makes me sick to stomach to even think that.

"Hey! What the hell are you doing!" I know that voice from anywhere. Damon.

"Hi lover." One of the girls say, obviously the one in charge. "Do you have my money? If not you can say goodbye to your little girlfriend."

I knew it. It was that bitch that I almost fought my first night here. "Yeah, we have it now your going to let Leah go you psychotic bitch." Christian. It's him. Obviously that girl from that night felt really enraged, since she decided to kidnap me and all. I was seconds away from running to Christian, put on each side of my arm had been gripped.

"You can have her, as soon as I get my money." Is this bitch serious? She kidnapped me to get money?

"It's in here, not let her go." Great. Nathaniel's here. Isn't that just adorable. All three of them, coming to my rescue. Who knew they'd all be together, just to save me.

"Leah, are you okay?" Sam says. Seriously is everyone here? I near choke on my words. "I-I'm fine." I say holding my tears back.

"We're going to get you back okay?" Tyler says. I nod, simply holding onto that. The fact that all of them came to save me really made me realize, I'm not really alone. I never was.

"Okay, so Leah will start walking here towards us, and Nathaniel will give you the money." Jason says. They snatch the bag from off of my head and to my sight, I see Alex, and Mari along with the guys. They both smile gently at me while holding onto each other.

"Okay Meredith. Stop these games and let Leah go." Damon says. She nods and pushes me towards them, and Nathaniel begins to walk. I quickly run into Christians arms as he holds me tightly in his hug. He gently placed a kiss on my head and we turn around watching Nathaniel and Meredith.

"Now, the bag." Meredith says holding her hand out. Nathaniel looks at her, and down at the bag, and chuckles lightly. Next thing that I know, he pulls out a gun from his back pocket. My eyes widen, and everyone is officially on edge.

"Nate what the fuck!" Sam shouts. This has went completely sideways and honestly this scene is getting hard to predict. "Now, you really thought you were going to get this bag? You must be the dumbest person on earth." Nate lifts the gun up to Meredith and her little posey.

Damon steps forward along with Tyler, Sam, and Jason. "Nate this has gone far enough. Put the fucking gun away." Tyler says. Nathaniel laughs. He's gone crazy within the matter of minutes.

Nathaniel looks at Tyler and rolls his eyes. "Oh shut the hell up Ty." He looks back at Meredith. "These whores kidnapped Leah, and then on top of that, they think I'm really giving them five thousand fucking dollars! Are you bloody shitting me?" At this point I'm not sure what he's planning to do. Christian loosens his grip as I walk a couple of steps forward.

"Nathaniel." I say quietly. "Please." He looks up at me and grunts, looking back at the girls. "You're lucky she's here, if she hasn't I would've blew your brains across this dock." My eyes widen and I run up to him and grab the gun out of his hand. He looks down at me, ready to say something, but stops himself.

We stare at each other for a while, and Meredith laughs. "You all are fucking sick. Christian you're obviously stupid. Open your eyes you idiot. He likes her, she likes him. You're dumb if you haven't seen it."

Jason laughs. "Oh you're mad because no one likes you? You're mad because you're a pass around? A whore, a usual piece of shit. Let's be honest here, you'll always be the distraction, a one night stand. You, are, nothing."

Meredith grips her fist. "Trust me, I'm more of something than she'll ever be. She's useless! She's a waste of space, and a prude!" I scoff. Before I can say anything Damon jumps in and walks up towards her.

"Are you seriously that pissed that I didn't want to fuck you? Honestly Meredith we had a good run but you were just a distraction to me. I never liked you, I've never wanted you, you were just an easy piece of shit. All I wanted was to get inside of your pants. That's it. So please, how about you find someone who actually wants you, because it isn't me."

If Meredith hasn't cracked, she did now. Her turn back to look at Damon, and then back to Meredith who is running towards me. She snatches the gun out of my hand and Nathaniel tackles her. Everything is happening so fast I didn't even notice.

I run towards Sam who hurries and brings Alex, Mari, and me back to the car. The rest of the guys stayed back to help Nathaniel, and by the time I reach the car, I hear a shot. I turn back around, eyes wide, wondering what just happened. I see Damon's body on the ground, and my heart is beating out of my chest.

"Damon!" I yell running full speed towards him, kneeling next to his body. Tears force themselves out of my eyes as I see Damon has been shot in the lower part of his stomach.

Everyone else follows behind me and stands in shock. I shake my head in disbelief and I sob.
I turn back towards them wondering why the hell they're just standing around. "Someone call a fucking ambulance! He's shot you fucking idiots!" Tyler hurries and pulls out his phone, and begins to call them.

I look at Damon in his eyes, as he does mine. I start to caresse his cheek and I try to comfort him. "Hey, you're going to be okay. Alright? P-please just stay with me." He nods and tries to speak. I put my finger onto his lips and told him to not try to speak.

Meredith and her friends scurried off, nowhere to be found. If Damon dies because of those bitches I will release hell on them, I might even kill them myself.

Damon's life was on the line right now and I was so afraid for him. This shouldn't be happening right now, not to him, not to anyone. This was completely traumatizing to see your friend get shot. If I lose him it was like losing my brother all over again.

Out of nowhere, a car pulls up to the side and I quickly look over, thinking Meredith and her friends are back. It's BJ.

He rushes over to me and I stand up as he pulls me into a hug. I give in and finally wrap my arms around his waist and cry into his shoulder. I realized that I can't blame him for not knowing. It's not his fault that I was adopted, and it's not his fault for my parents lying to me. The ambulance pulls up and I jump in the back with Damon along with Sam, and Tyler. The rest follow us, I hold Damon's hand and I don't let go. I will never let go, and I hope he survives through this. God I hope he does, because if he doesn't, I'm going to lose myself.
