I woke up on a cement floor surrounded by thick walls made of cinder blocks. My head was pounding and as I looked down at my hands I remembered why. Everything came back to me in a blur causing my head to spin as I processed everything. I crawled onto my hands and knees and groaned as aches soared through my entire body. I felt like I got hit by a truck, well a black SUV at least. Through my daze I managed to make out a door on one wall made completely of rusted metal.

The room was dimly lit by light let in by a single barred window but other than that I couldn't see anything but cement. The door let out a loud squeak as it swung open revealing Scott who was dressed in dirty black jeans and a blood covered white shirt. I couldn't help but wonder if it was my blood or someone else's as a bright light flickered on causing me to groan in pain. I fell back to the ground covering my eyes and writhing around slightly in pain upon impact, even the slightest movements were excruciating.

"You're finally awake." He grumbled as he stood over me

I didn't move an inch, I could barely even move at this point so I didn't even bother mustering up a reply. I had lost all hope the moment I realized who had taken me.

"What, no more rude comments?" He questioned as he kicked my side harshly

I let out a scream as I curled into a ball protectively as I cried out "Please just leave me alone Scott I can barely move."

"Mmm," he hummed leaning down closer to me so I could feel his disgusting breath on my neck "we haven't even had any fun yet."

"No," I choked out "please no."

"Worthless Bitch," he spat standing up too quickly and nearly stumbling over "you ruined my life and you won't even fuck me to make up for it."

For the first time I peeked my head up realizing the door was open and took a deep breath, this was my only chance to escape. I could tell from the moment he bent over that he was drunk, hopefully so plastered he won't react in time. Using every ounce of energy left, I pushed myself up and sprinted through the door before slamming it shut. Scott let out an ungodly scream as I tried to latch the door and I realized his finger was caught in the door. I pulled back harder, not feeling an ounce of sympathy for him as he screamed out in pain.

I pushed in before bringing the door back hard as he removed his finger just in time. I latched the door before falling to the ground leaning against it, tears still streaming down my cheeks. I looked around and realized we were in some kind of abandoned factory. The electricity seemed to be on judging by the small light a few feet from me sitting on a wooden desk. I pushed myself up and crawled over before pulling myself up and onto the chair. I spotted my phone and quickly grabbed it holding the power button and audibly praising god when it turned on.

I went straight to Alice's contact and called and after only one ring her voice came over the speaker "Blair oh my god are you okay?"

"Scott," I stuttered out "I don't know, I don't know where I am."

"Get out of there." Alice stated in a torn up tone that told me she had been crying

I let my head fall to the desk, barely able to keep the phone to my ear "I can't, I can barely move."

"They're tracing the phone, are you safe?" Sarah's voice came in

I nodded to myself "For now, he, he is locked in a room."

"Are you sure he can't get out?" Alice's sweet voice asked

It was like heaven to hear her voice, it was the only thing keeping me awake at this point.

"I think he hasn't gotten out." I mumbled out feeling myself slipping back into the darkness

"Hey stay with me Blair, just focus on my voice and keep talking." Alice cried into the phone

I pulled my head up and leaned back in the chair barely able to keep myself upright "I'm so tired."

"I know sweetie but you need to stay awake." Sarah said calmly

I opened my eyes looking over at the rusted door as Scott hit his fists against it relentlessly, I thought almost losing a finger would've at least put him down for a few minutes.

"Scott's trying to get out." I mumbled into the phone

Alice quickly cut in "The police are on their way baby, can you get outside?"

"I don't think I can walk." I stated looking up at the tall ceiling held by reinforced bars of what I assumed to be steel

"Okay," Alice stuttered out "Blair I love you, just stay awake and keep an eye on wherever Scott is."

"I love you too." I mumbled out as the phone slipped from my fingers

I couldn't keep my eyes open another minute, I could hear Alice yelling from my phone on the floor for a few minutes. Sirens replaced her voice just as I let myself fall back into the darkness I had tried so hard to fight.

~1 Day Later~

"She's still sleeping." An unfamiliar female voice spoke

I couldn't move or see anything around me as Alice's beautiful voice filled my ears "Is she going to be okay?"

"She needs to rest, only time will tell." The other voice replied

"She has to wake up," Alice sobbed "I love her."

I swear I could feel her touch on my wrist but no matter how hard I tried I couldn't get myself to move. I wanted to tell her how much I love her and that everything was going to be okay. I wanted to tell that I was sorry for the time I had wasted. I wanted to tell her everything I had been holding back because now I understood how fast everything could be taken from me. I wanted to be with her for the rest of my life, I didn't want to waste another second putting up a front or faking smiles. I wanted to be genuinely happy and she is the only thing that makes me feel that way.

"Her fingers just moved." Alice breathed out, speaking quietly

If they did, I hadn't realized but any hope it had given her made my heart hurt a little less. I knew she had to be going crazy waiting to hear if I was dead or alive. I knew from the sound of her voice that talking to me on the phone had torn her to pieces hearing how broken I was. I didn't want to broken anymore, I just wanted things to be normal. I wanted Scott to disappear and never come back. I wanted to be happy for once instead of just going through each day in a depressed haze. I wanted my life back, I wanted to be able to stand tall and confident like I did before I met Scott, the way I was when I started dating Alice. She made me a better person, she made me stronger than I ever had been, and she made me believe in love again.
