Behind the walls ●ABANDONED●

Chapter 1

??? Point of view

That was close. I quickly hid behind the wall and took deep but quiet breaths. I was not ready to talk to her yet. I heard her heals walk past me as she laughed. She was so clueless and naïve. Eventually, her laughed faded into the distance and so did all my emotions. Fear left along with joy and regret. Fear wasn't gone long though as it always had a way to get in my head. I traded along the alley where I knew I shouldn't be. The quicker I was out of here the safer I would be.

Maya's point of view

"Hey Maya... Maya" John waved his hand in front of my face.
"Hmmm..."
"Where were you just looking?"
"I thought I saw something go around the corner."
"Is it the creep that you keep saying you are seeing." John teased
"To be honest I think it is."
"Oh my gosh Maya. Do you really think someone would follow someone like you." John slung his arm over my shoulder
"Well-- I guess." I said and looked down to the floor.

We continued walking all the way to the bar where John would get drunk have a 'flig' with some girl and I could leave him.
"Ladies first." He pointed his hand to the doorway. I knew he only did that to slap my a**. Don't get me wrong John was such a nice boy and I truly liked him when we started dating. Now I feel like we are drifting further apart. And it's his fault.
"Hey!" I whipped my head around and was met with with his anger filled eyes that were daring me to continue. I spun back around on my heels and swiftly walked inside. Maybe tonight is not the night.

My eyes met with the dozens of people before me. My eyes scanned the room to find a place to constantly go back to during the night. I gave up. I will just stay in the bathroom at least. John can't find me.
"Hey!" I turned my head to meet with John's deadpan face.
"Yes." I replied quickly to seem as no act of defiance.
"Don't go running off tonight." There go my plans. "I need you for something." He muttered under his breath so quietly I almost didn't hear. A confused look filled my face, he mirrored me. Exactly. I once again felt uneasy like when I saw the figure in the alley.

*****

The night was going just like it normally does. He goes off to his friends and some unknown girls. I just have to sit at the bar. I think about what my life could have been or still can be if I go soon. I felt a presence behind me but thought nothing of it, after all there were a lot of people here.

I took another sip of my drink when I felt an hand grip around my arm and pulling me around to look at them. It was John. Relief washed over me. My body suddenly tensed up realising that he wanted something. Of course. He pulled me up out of my seat. I compiled knowing I would regret this later if i didn't. He pulled me over to where his friends were just sitting and I took in a quiet but deep breath. He stood me in front of his hands wrapping one hand around my waist and the other on my neck. He leaned in and kissed me. I didn't resist. I didn't deepen the kiss. He looked very dissatisfied with me after that.

After we pulled away he went back to talking. I was just standing there with his arm around my shoulder alone with my thoughts once again. John's tone changed as the conversation topic changed. One friend then spoke
"So what's she worth?" He took a quick glance at me. I almost didn't notice.
"What do you want from her?" John replied quickly. His words came out as rehearsed. I took a small glance up at him. I tried my hardest to look like a confused puppy that is admiring their owner.
"What can she do?"
"How long do you want her for." A smirk played on John's lips and clear confusion on my face was now becoming evident to the men.
"Don't you worry your pretty little heard princess, we will take care of you." Another of the men responded clearly talking to me. Worry laced my face as I look up at John. He looked down at me. He took his arm off my shoulder and pushed me onto the men.
"How long?" John asked being more demanding now.
"For all of us to last. How does a day and a half sound." John just nodded his head and walked off. I went to get up and follow him but I felt arms grab around my waist restricting me from following him.

Hey guys. I congratulate you on finding my book. How do you like the characters so far? And who do you think ??? Could be and there motives?
