troubled book 2: keep holding on

chapter 5: thanks

mickis p.o.v

after we went to nick's, we left for our hotel we booked for the next 2 weeks, and chilled out in the room wwe were staying in, the boys joking and gaming, the girls chatty and bubbly.i forced a smile when they looked at me, but inside I was pulling at my brain, looking for answers for my feelings.but I couldnt find anything.i guess im just losing my mind.ever since nick left, the drink has gone down my throat by the gallons.

I guess I just need a walk.yeah, thats it.

I pull on my jacket and pull down my beanie over my ears and step out the door, ignoring the groups questioning looks and walking out into the cold city air, my breaths coming in deep gasps.i walk down one street, then another, then another.

then after about 10 other streets, I see that im completely lost.shit.

I walk back retracing my steps, my hands clenched into tight fists, praying that I get back safely.then they show up.

they grabbed me from behind, pulling me back and covering my mouth so I cant scream.i struggle and kick, but I may as well be hitting a brick wall.

the three of them, I realise are teenagers.clearly drunk, one of them so out of it he cant stand up straight.the others are under too, but not as much.

I close my eyes, tears seeping through,  knowing whats coming.

then I notice, the tugging on my clothes has stopped,  and their heavy laughs are silent.i open an eye, slowly and steadily and see a hooded figure standing over them, a wooden plank in their hands.the person looks up and I see long brown hair, a pair of hazel eyes peeking through.

"you okay?"she says, dropping the plank and walking over to me.i nod, the sobs taking over my voice, and I crush the stranger with my hug of thanks.

"t-t-t-thank you so much.......I cant b-b-believe you did that for me"i sob Into her hair.she chuckles lightly and rubs my back.

"whats your name sweetie?"she asks me.

"mickayla.you?"I reply looking up at her kind face.

"bellE.here, lets get you home." she says, leading me away from the unconscious boys and Into the city light.

A/N hope you enjoy, just a filler chapter.the character bellE is a new character ive added.
