Grayson's POV:

I looked back just to see Elise in the back of a truck, chasing after me still.

Then I thought of someone who lived nearby.

Robyn.

I was still sprinting as fast as is humanly possible, seeing Robyn's apartment block coming into sight.

I didn't even have the nerve to check where Elise was, until I crossed the street and pressed the buzzer.

I could hear the police siren filling my ears, behind me.

"This is Grayson Dolan, I'm looking for R-Robyn" I said shakily.

"She is on Floor 3" the responder said to me.

I walked into the apartment block and in the elevator. I pressed the 3rd floor button and awaited until the doors opened.

I grabbed my phone and pressed her contact.

She declined.

I decided I'd have to try another way.

I knocked on the first door I saw and the door opened after a few seconds.

"Hello..do I know you?" a welcoming middle aged lady replied.

"I'm looking for Robyn, s-she lives on this ff-floor" I stuttered, still in shock.

"And who are you?" she questioned.

"H-her friend"

"Ok, let me ring her and ask if she's expecting you" she announced, picking up her phone.

"N-no! It's an emergency. I promise"

"Um..ok" she said, obviously not convinced. "Door 38"

"Thank you" I said, running to try and find her door.

As I stood on front of her door, I knocked politely and waited.

I could finally hear the television turning off and movement, thank god.

Until she peeked through the door and saw me standing there.

Her eyes grew larger as she slammed the door.

"Robyn, I need you, I'll explain"

"Yeah well if you needed me then y-" I heard her shout from the opposite side of the door. But I cut her off.

"It is not what you think, I need a safe spot for a minute, please?" I pleaded.

"I'll regret this" she muttered under her breath.

She slowly opened the door, examining my alarming expression.

I could see the shock in her eyes, baffled by my appearance.

I walked in, her apartment in darkness, Friday is movie night obviously.

She was walking ahead of me, she patted the couch, signalling me to sit beside her.

"Are you okay?" she wondered, obviously very concerned.

"I just need a moment" I exclaimed, knowing she will give me what I need.

"I was making tea if y-"

"Yes please"

She nodded her head and carried on with the task.

The one thing I know about Robyn is that she is selfless, she cares about everyone but herself.

She also never questions anything, she gives you space. She isn't nosy at all, she minds her own business.

If it has nothing to do with her, she won't get involved. But, if she is involved she certainly knows how to stand up for herself.

How do I know this much about her already you're probably thinking.

She's an open book, she isn't secretive or mysterious and she is so incredibly down to earth it's crazy.

So, with all of this in mind I decide to tell her about my psychotic ex-girlfriend.

She was still at the kitchen, her apartment was open plan so I decided to walk up to her.

"No- sit down honestly, you're obviously in a bit of shock." she insisted, her long dark hair brushing against my shoulder.

It's soft.

I'm such a weirdo.

"I need to tell you-"

"No you don't, just let yourself process it"

I turned around and walked back to the living room. I felt her warm presence gleaming behind me.

I turned around, to see her stunning green eyes shining in the distance.

I didn't want to explain the whole story, at least for now. I just needed somewhere to stay, I was still in so much shock.

Hey everyone! Hope you're all well :) this chapter took way too long to write because it was hard finally doing some slow-paced stuff. At the end obviously. I feel like I honestly get bored of books so easily and the least I want is that :((

But, I just have to say I am so so happy with 62 views! It's crazy.

Honestly Idc if you don't think that's a lot because it is for me😂

Thanks for the support
