Imprisonment

It's my fault

 “What do you mean?”  He asked, not fully comprehending what I was saying.

“Five months ago, I got myself into some serious shit, I hung out with the wrong crowd, Nick told me not to go with them that night but I didn’t listen, they took me to a club, got me in easy because they knew the bouncers.  I didn’t realise until they took me up to the V.I.P area, that they had all these other girl, doing drugs and basically give them lap dances, they gave me a stamp on my wrist, I looked around and all my friends had left, then suddenly everything came clear… they were going to sell me”

I heard Jacob gasp, but I continued anyways.

“I quickly message nick to get the cops down here A.S.A.P, but he decided to come down and get me himself, he made it down to the place way before the cops were even there, I could see him weaving through the crowd, when he caught my eye he made his way to me, but not making anything obvious he looked down at the stamp on my wrist, it was a circle with a red V in the middle, he grabbed my wrist making sure the mark was covered, and dragged be towards the door, the bouncers who let me in watched us closely, Nick could see that they were watching, so he steered me towards the booth, “whatever happens” he said as we sat down, he put something in my bag, I didn’t want to know what it was “there is an emergency exit to the left, I want you to go though there and run, I’ve put a grand in your bag don’t come home until I say so”

“Wait, you’re leaving me?” I couldn’t believe it, no way was Nick going to stay here “I love you Sara, they won’t let you leave, I have to make a distraction, don’t worry the police will be here any minute, I’ll be ok”

He left me on the seat, and darted towards the bouncers, when I heard the shouting start, I made my way to the door as quickly as possible, when suddenly I heard a bang, I looked behind me and all I could see in people cowering on the ground. I couldn’t see him, so he had to be safe and I left.

I hadn’t known it was him until the next day, I was in a shitty motel watching the news”

By now the tears were flowing, it had been my fault Nick died, I should have sucked it up and been sold to the human trafficking world, I knew my logic sucked and that what him did wasn’t my fault, but if I hadn’t hung out with those people none of it wouldn’t have happened.

“Sara, that isn’t your fault” Jake stated “what they did to him, what they were doing in general was illegal”

“I know that! But what if I hadn’t been hanging around those people? What if I had listen to him, he’d still be alive”

“You can’t always think of the what ifs, you have to live in the present moment”

I looked up at him, he stared down at me with this adoring look, and I knew it was time to let him go, that I could let him go because he was going to be with Nessie, and I could live with that.

“Come on, we should go check on Bella” I sniffed, I tugged his hand towards the stairs, I could he Bella sucking the blood though a straw, it should make me cringed but it doesn’t.

“Can I walk?” I heard her say when I opened the door, slowly Rose, helped her to her feet, and she gave a little stretch.

“You’re huge, bells” Jacob commented, there was a forced smile on his face, I could see the pain in his eyes.

“One more day” she sighed, patting her stomach, “whoops… oh no”

There was the strangest ripping sound from the centre of her body, the three of them surround her in a flash.

She let out a scream, then vomited a fountain of blood.

Chaos was everywhere, I quickly moved myself from the room towards my bed room.. I mean the room I was staying in, this isn’t my house, this isn’t even my life.

I could hear Bella shouting at the top of her lungs, telling them to get the baby out of her, it was horrible.

Alice, Jasper and Rose came into my room, rose looked at me with hungry eyes but I smelt to much like Jake for her to attack, which I was grateful for. 

“Everything is going to be ok, Bella is going to make it, and so is Renesmee”

“I knew it was going to be a girl” Rose sighed, whoops I wasn’t supposed to say that.

Suddenly she shot up and ran out of the room, I could hear her asking Edward for the baby, and Bella is screaming some more mixed with Jake screaming for her to stay alive, it tore my heart out to hear him in such agony.
