A Night To Remember (Joe Elliott Fan Fic)

Chapter Three

Katie's P.O.V - 12:32 AM

I lay awake in bed just thinking. I genuinely don't know how Joe feels. Surely that almost kiss was a mistake... and maybe he was gonna say that to me before Erin walked out their room. Joe probably just feels sorry for me. He probably regrets it and wants us both to forget about it.

I sighed and sat up, just as Charlotte ran in, in her yellow and white Looney Tunes pyjamas and hair tied back.
"Thank God, Kit Kat!" She gasped, using my nickname. "There's people in the house!"
"There's what?! Wait... You mean the guys?" I started to smile, thinking it was a joke, but the look on her face said otherwise.
"A van is outside, just pulled up and now three guys are downstairs! Rick's getting Sav and Alicia." Charlotte sat on my bed.

I got up and looked out the window. I could see a black van and what looked like lights, coming from the windows, onto the drive, before they faded out.
"PHIL!" I stood on my bunk and hit Phil a few times, as Sav, Alicia, Viv and Jac ran in.
"What?! I'm up!" Phil gasped, running a hand over his face.
"Mate, get up, now. Three guys have just broken in, we only have two phones in the house and they're both downstairs!" Sav spoke up, looking out the window.
"This a joke?" Phil asked, warily, sitting up. He only wore a black tank top and his underpants for bed.
"Nah, mate." I looked at him, stepping off my bed.

"Girls, stay here. Wake up Joe and we'll go down." Viv instructed, wearing black pyjama pants and no shirt.
"They could be armed!" Jac looked at Viv, as she sat on my bed, with Charlotte, her short blonde hair spikey in places.
"We're in Sheffield!" Viv looked at Jac.
"Yeah, farming country. Hunting. A hammer, a gun, a knife, a club of some kind. Don't do anything stupid!" I looked at the guys.
They all nodded and Rick peeked out the bedroom door. His pyjamas being a dark grey Metallica shirt and some sweat pants.

"I see torch light." He whispered.
"Panic room!" I looked at Phil, watching as he then pressed the mirror and the door opened.
"What the fuck?!" Sav and Alicia whispered in sync. Sav wearing a white Queen shirt and his jeans, with Alicia in matching blue pyjamas, with cartoon cats on them.
"You didn't know? Get in. Someone wake up Joe and Erin then we'll plan our next move." I insisted.
Viv nodded for Jac to get in the panic room, before he switched places with Rick and bolted out the room.

We all scurried into the room and me and Phil looked at the security panel.
"Instructions?" I looked around, not wanting to push the wrong button.
"Here." Jac passed me a book, as Sav unfolded the bed and everyone got comfortable.

Jac's pyjamas consisted of one of Vivian's shirts, that was black, with Bon Jovi on it, with her union jack pyjama pants.

I flipped through and followed the guide, before we heard Erin yelling, a scream, and hurried footsteps.
"IN, IN, IN!" Vivian yelled, running into the room.
"What is going on?!" Joe asked, looking at us all, the last to run in.
"How do you shut the door?" Viv asked, looking at the panel of buttons.
"You're not shutting me in here!" Erin screeched, looking at Viv.
I saw a guy dressed in black run into my room, I pushed Joe out the way, slammed the red button and backed up, letting door close and the guy just miss us.

We didn't turn out the lights, when we discovered this room, so everyone could see. We were all scared and freaked out, but Sav and Alicia were in some serious shock.

"OK... Red... 274-668... On." I read the manual, switching on the CCTV screens, with everyone watching me.
"Now, let's all stay calm. What's the phone situation?" I asked, turning to everyone.
"Holy shit..." Jac curled up, sat on the bed.
"Uh... Two phones, working, both in living room... What about that phone?" Sav pointed behind me, as he was leaning against the back wall.
"We can call for help!" Charlotte looked at me, with hope.

Phil grabbed the phone and held it to his ear. "No landline." He shook his head.
"Urgh, come here!" Erin grabbed the phone and dialed in 999. "It's not working!"
"Literally what Phil just said." I muttered looking through the manual.
"Hey-"
"Look!" Rick cut off Erin, pointing at the third screen on the top row.

There were eight screens, four on top, four under. On the third screen we could see the three guys. Two with baseball bats and one who looked unarmed. All dressed in black, but the screens were black and white.
They were talking and one was kicking off. We couldn't see their faces, as they all wore black ski masks.

"OK, we have an idea as to what we are dealing with..." I looked at Phil.
He nodded, but was looking at the phone holder. He guided my attention to a white button that said 'PA System'.
"Anxiety..." I looked at him, using a sing song voice.
"I'll do it." Joe looked at me, with sad eyes.
I stepped aside and motioned for him to go, with my hand.

He took a breath and looked at all of us.
"Here goes." Joe looked at the CCTV.
"Wait! They know we're in here. Tell them we've called the cops and they need to leave." Charlotte spoke up, cradling Jac.
Joe nodded and pressed the PA button. "Oi, mate. We've called the cops and they're on the way. I highly suggest you leave!"

"Swear at them." I blurted out, laughing nervously, allowing Phil to hold my hand.
Joe looked at me, as I spoke, looking at mine and Phil's hands. "Get out of our fucking house, you bastards!" He growled down the PA.

It took a second, but the tallest guy looked up at the camera and held one of the house phones to his ear and shook his head at us.
"What?" Joe whispered to himself.
"They know we don't have a phone..." Phil spoke slowly.
"How could they know that?!" Sav asked.
"What do we do?!" Asked Charlotte.
"We're trapped in here!" Alicia sunk to the floor, by my feet.

"Wait!" Phil held his hands up.
"Let me out of this room, right now." Erin crossed her arms, glaring at me and Phil.
"Yeah, 'cause me and Katie set this up. No, listen! We're all trapped and scared. They somehow know we don't have a phone and I know it's not a big room, there's a lot of us, and we all only just fit, but we need to stay calm! Ask them what they want." Phil pointed at Joe, making Erin scoff, offended.

"What the fuck do you guys want?!" Joe asked them.
"Tell them they can take whatever. Just leave!" Alicia closed her eyes, trying to calm herself.
"Deep breaths, love!" Sav sat next to her, cradling her.
"Take whatever you want and go!" Joe was getting upset.

The guys were scurrying about, but one of them soon held up a piece of paper, to the camera, that read 'What we want is in that room'.
