My Secret Heart

Chapter 21

STILL NIALL'S POV:

When I woke up it donned on me, if she was running away she would go far away, so I started dialing hours away, hotels, store, anything really.

Till finally I got someone who said she Maggie Bronshnic had checked into the hotel.

My heart sprung with life. I got the directions, hopped in the car, and was on my way to go bring her into my arms once again.

It took a little over two hours to get to the hotel. I asked for her room number, at the front desk.

"What room is Maggie Bronshnic in?" I asked.

"Um may I ask who you are?" the tiny lady asked as she pulled her glasses down past her nose.

"I'm her boyfriend" I told her. Well I didn't really know what we were now, but I still considered her my girl.

"Oh well then you will have to call her up and ask her to meet you in the lobby. We do not allow others to know room numbers, unless we have their permission." She said flatly, looking at me as if I was some kind of homeless thief.

"Well you see, she is mad at me and" she cut me off before I could finish.

"Not my problem. Deal with it yourself" she told me as she went back to her paper work behind the desk.

Well I guess I will just have to wait till I see her leave the hotel some time. I didn't bother getting a room, because I didn't want to deal with the grouchy old lady behind the front counter. Maybe if I was lucky I wouldn't even need to spend a night anywhere.

By the time I got to the hotel and everything, the day was almost finished. So I sat in my car, watching her car, waiting for her come out. After a long while my eyes became droopy and I fell asleep into a nap.

I woke up adjusting my eyes, from the rays of the sun and noticed her car was gone! Dang it I missed her!

I waited again for a while till I was getting frustrated and decided I would just go and drive around, hoping I would find her somewhere.

After what seemed like looking forever, I was about to give up. Then I saw a tall man all dressed in black coming up to a girl with blonde hair that was walking into a store. He snatched her purse and she was battling to try and get it back.

When her hair moved out of her face that's when I realized it was Maggie. I slammed on my breaks and got out of my car right then and there, in the middle of the street.

I ran over to them and jumped onto the man who was trying to steal from my girlfriend. I caught him off guard.

I got off of him and clenched my fist ready to impact his face. He was still holding onto the purse.

"Leave her alone! Give her it back!" I yelled at him, and with those words he pushed me to the ground, knocking the wind out of me.

The pain from hitting the concrete side walk, was excruciating, but I got back up and lunged back towards the man.

I took another swing at his broad face from under the mask. He stepped back a little from the pain of the hit, but he swung back at me, hitting my nose. I fell to the ground, blood was everywhere now.

"Niall!" Maggie yelled through tears as she still tugged for her purse. I forced myself back up about to tackle, when he kicked me in the stomach causing me to tremble and fall to the ground. I could already feel the bruises starting to form all over my body.

I was trying so hard to get back up, when he kicked me again in the knee causing me fall back down, hitting my head on the concrete. The last thing I saw was Maggie running to me and shouting at me through her tears.
