Trapped in Their World

Chapter 43

Jaylee's POV

As soon as Harry saw my eyes widen with fear, he quickly pressed his hand against my lips in case I would accidentally scream. I leaned back into Zayn's chest since Harry unbalanced me, causing Zayn to quickly hold me in his arms. Harry then pressed his index finger against his lips, signaling me to remain quiet.

We glanced over towards the door that we stupidly left slightly open before we looked over at the roof and realized the guys had jumped off already.

My heart raced roughly against my chest as we heard multiple footsteps move around the house underneath us. I closed my eyes as I began trembling with fear, realizing that we had a 50:50 chance of making it out of here alive. How on earth are we going to sneak out of here quietly enough before one of them comes up and realizes we're inside?

As soon as I opened my eyes, I looked up and realized Harry and Zayn we're having a secret communication through their eyes. Before I had the opportunity ask what they were thinking, I was suddenly grabbed by the arm from Harry. I looked down at where Harry had tightly grabbed me before he crawled through the window and dragged me behind him. I then realized we were escaping all together before I suddenly quickened my pace as I tried to be as quiet as possible.

As soon as I got myself through the medium sized frame, I gasped as I looked outside and felt the cold air enclose on me. Although the view was beautiful from here, we had no time to admire it. As soon as Zayn got himself through the window, Harry began dragging us all quietly towards the edge.

We were like a chain as we ran on the roof, Harry holding me, and me holding Zayn. Zayn kept looking back with his gun ready in his hand as we approached the edge. "Don't think, just jump." Harry whispered as I began to panic.

"Wait I'm not ready." I whimpered as I realized how scary the drop looked. Louis, Niall, and Liam were already away from the house, hiding behind another one in front as they waited for us.

Suddenly we heard footsteps coming up to the second floor, causing all of us to look back.
"Now!" Harry half yelled as he leaped off the roof, causing Zayn and I to mirror his actions. I screamed as we landed on the grass before we rolled and propped ourselves up as quickly as possible.

Harry began running as Zayn grabbed me and lifted me up from the ground. "Run." Zayn said as he began pulling me as far away from the house as possible. My legs were shaking due to the adrenaline that was shooting through my body and how scared I was at the moment.

"Now! Do it now!" Harry yelled as the other three came to view and stared at us with wide eyes. Niall then looked down at his device before he pressed the button, causing the whole house to be engulfed by flames and smoke. It felt like my heart was in my throat as soon as I felt myself being lifted from the ground. I couldn't help but scream as the impact of the bomb caused Zayn and I to fly forward and land on the grass.

My hearing felt off as a loud piercing sound being ringing in my ears. I moaned in pain as I heard distant shouts above me as well as loud crackling noises. The more I heard muffled voices coming towards me, the more nauseous I began to feel. It sounded like multiple people were calling my name and telling me to get up, but they sounded so muffled and distant. Where am I? Was I on the same planet? Why did I feel so strange?

I didn't have time to think as I opened my eyes and blinked around, noticing a huge carpet of smoke was clouding over us. Everything felt like it was going in slow motion, and I couldn't figure out why. I felt like a sloth as I tried to feel around the itchy grass, wondering why I could hardly hear or feel anything.

I was then grabbed by my arm and waist before I was lifted up, causing me to stumble to my feet. As soon as I put pressure onto my legs, I suddenly felt an unbearable pain shoot through my bones. I screamed in pain as my knees gave in before I fell down, causing whoever was holding me to trip and lose their balance.
