Y/N POV:

"Holy shit it's been years!" she squealed out whispering. We both reached into a warm tight hug after she put the baby down that was resting in her hands, Savannah used to be my student tutor in school due to how shit I was in maths and science, thankfully she found a way for me to pass or else I wouldn't be studying science right now.

She was one of the smart kids but was always loved and was never really close to anyone except for her little friend group but holy shit did she look gorgeous after delivering a baby.

"Aww Sav he's so cute when did this happen?" I said slowly running my finger over his sweet, chubby cheeks, "my book-worm ass managed to get a loving boyfriend and a loving son, this little peanuts name is Jake" she smiled at me, I looked into her eyes seeing that she was happy.

"I'm so happy for you!" I exclaimed admiring the features of the little baby, "let's not wake this monster up and let's head into my room yeah?" she chuckled, but I couldn't laugh with her because all I felt was a lump in my throat from the previous hours.

She put the baby down in his crib and we both slowly walked up to her room, each step I took made me have flashbacks of when this Tom guy came to my house and pretended to he my neighbour, that day was absolutely terrifying.

Savannah traced me out of my thoughts when she spoke up, "isn't it weird that we live in the same neighbourhood and yet we never knew after all these years?", I just nodded with a smile as we entered her room, "you seem awfully quiet, not like you at all from high school" she said.

"Sorry, just a bit zoned out" I said scratching the back of my neck.

"How'd you get here anyways, I saw my dad bring you home?" she spoke up while picking some of the shirts on the floor and shoving them into the closet and basket, "I uh its a long story" I whispered, I guess she noticed the expression on my face and she dropped her clothes on the floor and walked over to her bed and sat down next to me.

"What's wrong?" she exclaimed "don't laugh at me okay?" I said looking down, "well, depends on what it is" she placed her hand on my shoulder chuckling a bit to lighten the mood "I'm being followed, like every hour of the day this guy is stalking me" I spit out fast and clear.

"Wait wh-"

"I woke up yesterday in his basement Savannah, he tricked my mom into thinking he was some neighbour coming to say hi, he planned all of this shit and I'm going through so much shit right now." I spoke out without putting the words together as my hands rummaged through my knotted hair.

"Holy shit, you woke up in his basement? Did you tell your parents? Have you called the poli-" as she swarmed me with questions, I kept thinking out how this would end up if I didn't escape, if I wasnt here, if he hurt me, if he touched me again like last time.

"Y/N are you listening?" she furrowed her brows.

"I'm sorry" I said putting my head down tearing up, she saw that I was tearing up and she shook me slightly so I could get her attention, "why didn't you just call the police when this happened?" she said forrowing her eyebrows.

Why didn't I?

How could I forget to call the police, to even tell my parents?

I looked up with my wet face and all I did was hug her as tight as I could with no response, with no reason, just empty thoughts and I was happy for a second that I had someone to be with.

"Hey, I have an idea" she spoke with calmness, I looked up signaling for her to continue, "what if you stayed here for a few days, until we find out a plan?" she tierdly suggested.

"Ugh Sav that would be great but my parents probably wouldn't let me." I said pouting, "don't worry about that, my mom will take care of it and tell her we're in uni together or something, okay?" she smiled down, "I can't thank you enough" I said then frowned again, "but what if she shows up at my house again or something, or he goes to the neighbo-"

"Y/N, as long as you're here nothing will happen, and also aren't your parents doctors or something? They won't even be home half of time anyways."

All I did was give her a slight smile because I didn't know if she was right or not, but this was my only choice. The past hour talking about our childhood since it was really late until I heard my phone buzz.

Unknown: You think it's okay to run out like that huh?

Unknown: As I said I'll always be right there whether you like it or not Y/N.

Unknown: I don't think you understand that I don't want to hurt you.

Unknown: Baby, I'll find you.

I closed my phone so fast, confused that he was being psychotic, then the next second he's talking about how he doesn't want to hurt me, it doesn't make any sense and it's scaring the shit out of me.

"Hey Y/N who texted you? You've been quiet for a while now" she said picking at her nails a bit.

"It-its Tom" I said low.

"Who?" she tilted her head trying to figure out if it was someone she knew, "it's um, the guy I was talking about" I whispered as if he was here and I didn't want him to hear.

She got wide-eyed and told me to open my phone in a rush, "Y/N, you idiot, block his number and shut ur phone off", "I blocked him obviously but I don't get the point of shutting my phone off completely" I said in a matter of time.

"He can track you down idio-" I didn't hear the rest as all I heard was my heart beating and I quickly shut my phone off, putting it in one of her drawers and falling onto the bed again.

Any small noise that was caused that night while we were sleeping stopped my heart for a split second, even just the air passing through my ears sent shivers down my spine. I didn't get much sleep considering that I was thinking of a plan, my best option till now was to tell my parents first, but they would think I'm crazy, the other option was the police but I had no evidence.

But what I was mostly thinking of was that my parents probably didn't know I was at this psychos house and they thought I was at Sav's the whole night, that's what sent me over the edge and sent me to curl into a space of anger that they dont pay much attention to me most of the time.

Only think that calmed me down is that for all I know is that, this Tom guy would leave me alone at some point, right?
