Falling Hearts

Chapter 4

I stopped in my tracks. I turned to Nick,

"Hey! Can we please go this way instead?!" My heart started beating faster as I turned my back to my family.

"Uh... Why?" He questioned. I sighed .

"I'll explain everything! I promise! Just please, let's go!" As soon as I finished talking I heard a mans voice,

"Amanda!" there were a few cuss words then a scream from my mother

"John no!" I started to run. I had no idea who was chasing after me. I halfway hoped Nick was coming. As I turned into the streets I felt arms grab me around my waist and arms. It was John.

I struggled to get free. But he wasn't budging. I saw Nick try to pry me off John.

"Hey kid! Let go she's my daughter!" Nick let go. Confused he started to walk off. I looked into his eyes as he saw mine. He then turned and started to walk awkwardly back to his girlfriend.

"Your in a buttload of trouble when we get back." Sure. I was worried about that but I still had no idea what everyone was crowding around. He let go as my mom came around to hug me. Austin was just watching my every move like I was some sort of criminal. John glared at me then started walking to the car.

We hopped in. The ride was mostly silent until Austin spoke up.

"Mom. What were those creepy, tall things." my mom shrugged but she didn't say anything. She grabbed Johns hand while he drove with the other. She then whisperd somthing in hos ear and he just mummbled back. "Whatever"

When we arrived home I got out of the car first. When I got to the front doorstep I noticed only John was coming out. Mom and Austin stayed behind. I closed my eyes as I opened the door. I almost ran to my room when I heard Johns voice yell,

"Don't even think about it! Get back here and sit on the couch." I shook as I turned back to head into the living room. I sat on the leather couch as John walked in. I didn't dare look him in the eye. He sat on the other couch facing me. His dark blue eyes looked at me as if they were looking into my soul. I stared at the ground.

"Its your fault." I said out of the corner of my mouth. He stood up and came closer to me. I winced thinking he was going to hurt me.

"I hate you." he told me. I looked up from the ground.

"Well, I never liked you." My stomach lurched as I said that. But it felt good. He lifted his hand about to slap my face as my mom came in. He suddenly put his hand down.

"Go to your room you idiot! I don't want to see you untill you understand not to run away!" His face was red.

"I already know not to! You don't even care if I understand anything! You just want to make my life horrible! It's bad enough with you in it!" That was when he did it. His hand lifted up and hit my face. The pain stung. I had never been slapped. Especially with this much force.

"You don't yell at your father like that!" he screamed in my face.

"Well... Your not my father." That must have made him really mad so he lifted up on his shoulder and carried me out the door. My mom was in her room so she had no idea what was going on. Austin was just walking to the house when he saw John carrying me. Austin ran into the house but before I could see what happened next I was thrown into the trunk of Johns car. He slammed the trunk door in my face. I screamed as he started the engine. But it was no use. I had no clue where he was going but wherever it was. It wasn't good.

It had been about 2 hours. I was crammed in a trunk and I could barley feel my legs when the car came to a stop. I heard the door open and slam close. The trunk popped open as John grabbed my arms. It took a while for me to figure out where I was but then I saw it. I was on the edge of a cliff. Miles down there was a deep, cold ocean. John laughed as he saw my face.

"You better not throw me down there!" I yelled. John laughed again.

"I'm not gonna throw your down there you retard." I hit him in the stomach to show I was getting agitated. He shook me as if he was getting ready to hurl me off the cliff. I let out a small scream. He laughed again as he spun me around. I turned to look at a large building. It had barbed wire fence around it.

"This is where I work." John said. I snapped back at him,

"Why would I care?!" He took a rope out of his pocket and put it in my mouth and tied it around my head.

"Your will soon." he whisperd in my ear.
