I limped myself back to the kitchen, picking up the knife he used. I went to the door as I was immediately bumped into someone. "Hey, hey. Are you okey baby?" Cole's soft voice spoke to me. I looked up at him as he took a minutes to see my stomach.
   
"Oh my god. Did he stab you?" Cole tried to remove my hand but I wouldn't let him. "I'm gonna kill him."
   
"I'm pretty sure he's trying to do that to you." Cole didn't listen to what I had just said and was to worried about my stomach, and all the blood I was losing. "We have to get you out of here." Cole wrapped my arm around his neck and walked with me. We walked to the other living room and he sat me on the couch. 
    
"Well look who it is! The so amazing boyfriend coming to save my princess."  Benjamin said as he walking into the living room. "Your princess? She doesn't even fucking like you. You're crazy, mom should of let you in that insane asylum!" Cole yelled as he stood, standing next to me. I looked right at Cole. Benjamin tighten his fist as he roughly exhaled. 
   
It all the pieces started to fit into place. Benjamin never went to jail, that was just their cover story, instead he was hospitalized but for what?
   
"She's not Julie! And she never will be!" Cole yelled at him again. Julie? Who the hell is Julie now. "Of course not. She's Madilyn, but just like Julie... you are the only thing getting in my way."
   
I pushed the bloody rag harder onto the wound, the area started to become numb as I didn't notice how much blood I was actually losing. "Cole." I breathed out as I grabbed onto his hand. He turned around and kneed down in front of me. "What's wrong baby? Are you okey?" I closed my eyes for a second before looking at him. "I don't think, I-I can go any longer."
   
"Don't say that baby. You can do this. Just stay here and I'll take of Benjamin." When Cole stood back and turned around, Ben was gone. He quickly turned back around to me. "Don't move. I'll be back, I promise." I nodded and watch him leave to a different room. 
   
I got up and ran the fastest I can to the front door, which of course would be on the opposite side of the house. "Oh, Cole!" I heard Benjamin yell. I quickly around around, trying to find somewhere to hide. I quickly opened the closet door and slowly shut it, trying not to make any noise.
