Part 15 - it’s not over yet!

*My P.O.V.*

I went weak in my knees. I sighed of relief but panicked when I opened my eyes to see David running straight for me with anger in his face. Jay grabbed me and stood in front of me, I peered over his shoulder and saw David be pinned to the ground as police cuffed him and held him back. He was like a mad dog, with him screaming and shouting as he was being dragged out of court. Just as he was getting bear the door he shouted words that confused me and struck fear into me…

“IT’S NOT OVER YET!”

The door slammed and there was silence and people were looking at me. I felt really light headed and the room started to spin. Someone was shouting at me but their speech sounded drowned and slurred. I tried to look for who it was but my eyes started to close. My legs went and it all went black.

*Jays P.O.V.*

I turned around and saw Connie cold out on the floor with her lawyer rolling her into the recovery position. I grabbed my phone and rang 999. Next minute there were sirens and Connie was swept away. It all happened so fast. I wasn’t allowed in the ambulance because I’m not related. I got in my car and followed. The lawyer stayed behind to clear up stuff and get details about how long Davids going to be in prison.

*My P.O.V.*

It was black, I’d been here before. There were people talking and sirens. I tried really hard to open my eyes. I did it. They flickered open and I saw lots of people over the top of me doing stuff. My head hurt so much. The box stopped jiggling around and then these to doors flung open at the end of this bed thing I was on. As I was wheeled down a ramp I realised I had been in an ambulance and I saw Jay running along side the wheely bed. We went down corridors and into a room, more nurses came in and switched stuff on. I grabbed one of their arms and said…
“I’m fine. What’s going on? What are you doing?”
She looked at me and smiled to the rest of the people.
“we are just checking your fine. You hit your head badly on the floor. You should be alright to go home but we need to test some stuff first.”
Right, ok then, I guess I just stay here. I sighed. I hate being in hospitals. For me they always meant trouble. I’ve never been in a hospital for me before I met David that was. When I used to visit family in hospital they usually wouldn’t come back out. I only have one grand parent left. Two died of cancer and the other had a heart failure. My uncle was taken to hospital because he had a heart attack, he didn’t make it. The only person who has come out hospital alive in my family is me, so far, and my dad. He got angry a lot and caused himself damage. That’s why mum left him. Every time he used to drive us somewhere I closed my eyes and hoped we wouldn’t crash, he’s awful in traffic jams.

I just hope I don’t die in one of these places. They seem scary. It’s like death is walking down corridors and could walk in your room and take you. I did like that thought…
“AHHH! Oh my god!…oh phew. It’s you.”
Jay burst into my room and scared the shit out of me.
“I didn’t mean to make you jump.”
“it’s ok. I had a scary thought. It’s this place.”
“the nurse said you have 1 more test and if it goes ok you can leave.”
“yay.”
I said sarcastically.
“thank you by the way.”
“what do you mean?”
Jay asked interested.
“i mean thank you for trying to save my life.”
“you only fainted.”
“no a bit before that.”
“what?”
“you stood infront of me when David lunged at me”
“oh. It was just…a reaction.”
“no-one else in my life would of cared that much to do something.”
Jay looked down at the floor.
“oh I didn’t want you hurt by him.”
“I know, thank you.”
Jay smiled.

The nurse came in with a tray and a cloth over the top.
“I hope there’s not a needle under there!”
I laughed. I’m really wimpy around needles and injections.
“umm…”
She looked at me.
“oh no. Do it quick before I run out of here.”
Jay looked shocked at my fear of needles.
“ok, it won’t hurt one bit.”
Liar! I grabbed jays hand. Squeezed my eyes shut and looked away.

—-(won’t go into details for Everyones sake.)—-

It was over. The nurse came back with my blood test results and said…
“as far as we can see your fine. You free to go when you want.”
Buy what she really meant was ‘go home.’ I got changed packed up my things and went outside for some fresh air whilst Jay got the car. Jay took me home.

I went to my flat to gather some stuff up. I hadn’t been there in a while. I guess it’s because of the memories it brought back. There was a blood stain on the floor. My room was a mess.
“I don’t want to live here.”
I said to Jay.
“I think I’ll spend the night in a hotel.”
“no. Sleep over ours!”
Jay looked at me hopeful.
“fine. If you can handle me.”
I winked. We laughed. I packed up my things for a night.
“ya’ know. I think I’ll clear this place up, sell it and move. It just doesn’t feel like home anymore.”
Jay looked surprised.
“oh. Well us boys are moving into our own flats soon so you could have the spare room in mine if you want?”
I thought it could be awkward with him bringing home girls. But we are friends. If it gets weird i’ll tell him.
“ok. It won’t be awkward will it?”
“no! Your my bestfriend. How will it be awkward?”
I simply looked at him and said… “sexytime?”
“oh. You mean us?”
What! I looked at Jay shocked.
“no! Jay…”
“oh sorry.”
“I mean with you and other girls.”
“oh. Well we’ll have separate rooms.”
“ok”
I sighed, smiled and shook my head.

—————

I had packed up all my things. I took one box to the boys’ and left everything else here. I put David’s stuff in a few boxes and labelled them ‘Charity.’ well it was a mini revenge. I was giving the good stuff to charity and the blood stained tops went to prison so when he was let out he could have them back and that’s not all I’m going to do. I’m going to get revenge. Like he said…

“It’s not over yet.”

Feedback welcome. I hope it was good. I’m going to try and at least get two or three updates a week. You can suggest ideas for your character and drama if you would like. Thanks :) Xxx

Part 14 - guilty

*Tylers P.O.V.*

We were on our way back to our house. The weekend had passed so quick. What we did well let’s say we DID each other. wink wink. It was really romantic as well, one night he took me to a really posh restaurant and he had planned for us to eat then walk along the beach to the hotel and then he went up stairs before me and rang to come up when he was ready then there was a trail of Rose petals leading to our room, it was so cute, i opened the door to see a bed covered with roses and nath lying there with just jeans on, it was a great night.

But at the moment we are about 5 mins from their house. We got in and has a huge “HI!” from around us. We put our bags upstairs and sat in the living room then Jay came out with…
“so what did you do?”
That’s the question I’ve been dreading. I couldn’t exactly say ‘oh, yeah me and nath had sex almost every minute.’ could I?! But just as embarrassingly Tom said…
“what do ya think bird! You blatantly did eachother!”
The room filled with laughter, I went bright red and couldn’t deny it, nath just laughed and nodded along.

————*a couple of months past*——

*My P.O.V.*

We are going to court today. I couldn’t sleep last night. I feel sick and I can’t eat breakfast. I was sat next to Jay on the sofa and I can’t stop shivering.
“are you ok?”
Jay asked looking down to me confused.
“errrrr….I’m not sure.”
He suddenly grabbed me and squeezed me really tight. He pulled me close and put a blanket over me. He whispered in my ear…
“it will all be ok, I know it will”
That sent more shivers down my spine But good shivers. We sat there for a while when Iona came running down stairs and jumped on the sofa.
“get up!”
She wipped the blankets off us. And shouted…
“come one! I wanna go shopping!!”
I really wanted to but I felt so ill.
“can’t…” her face dropped “…I’m going to court. Remember?”
“but you can go shopping before.”
Jay said. Iona’s head picked up and she grinned. Bouncing up and down and saying
“yeah, yeah!”
Like a child. She fun like that.
“go on, I’ll pick you up from outside Starbucks at 1 then we can get to court for half past. Yeah?”
Jay suggested.
“ok”
I said agreeing. I went and got ready with Iona.

————————-

We had shopped a while now. All the time i was thinking of how court would go later. Everytime I looked at a dress I thought ‘as much as I love it, it would show my bruses.’ but I guess for evidence I’ll have to wear a dress or a strapped top and shorts.
“iona? What should I wear to court?”
I asked.
“your not still think about that are you?”
“yeah.”
I said.
“I think you should wear this! And put on some make up and show him how much he regrets treating you like that.”
She pointed at this really short red low cut dress.
“no Iona, the court will think I was a slag and brought it on myself.”
“oh”
“sorry.”
I said I didn’t want to sound mean.
“ok then this!”
She cheered up instantly and pointed out a blue top and some tie dye high waisted shorts.
“ok!”
I said cheerily grabbing them and taking them to the dressing room. Iona picked this
http://cdn.thegloss.com/files/2008/05/windowslivewriter9f0e2956b26f-66bdkatherine-mcpheepurple-dress-look-forless-thumb.jpg
She put it on and looked amazing. I tried on mine and I will do for court I bought it and iona bought her dress. It was 15 mins to 1 so we thought we would head over to Starbucks. It didn’t take long to get there so we got a cuppa and waited for Jay. I was really nervous now. I still couldn’t stop shaking. Jays car rolled up and ne and Iona got in.
“right I’ll take you home so Iona can see Tom and you can get changed.”
He said looking at me.
“o..ok”
I said shakily.

————

I was changed and in the car now. The was parked and I couldn’t have the will power to get out. I was too scared. Jay had his hand on my knee the whole way there.
“cone on”
He said unplugging me and opening the door.
“do I have to do this”
I shaked.
“yep”
Jay said shutting his door and walking over my side. He knelt down and took my hand.
“look it’s all going to be fine.”
I sighed, of course it was. I hope it was.

We walked into the building and was greeted by our lawyer who told Jay to sit and watch in the stalls. She lead me around a hall way and through a door which opened out the front of the court. She took me to out table where her papers where. Across the room was David in cuffs and police holding him. He was red in the face and glaring at me. I was shaking, breathing heavy and seriously scared for my life. I know David’s really strong he could take the officers down and come for me.

The police wrestled him to his seat next to his lawyer. Then the judge came in. He sat in his little square and spoke very loudly. First we had to take an oath in the witness box with my hand on my heart and on the bible.
“Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you god?”
I looked straight at Jay.
“I do.”
I said with tears forming in my eyes. I didn’t like being put on the spot. It was like that for about half an hour or so just me saying my story.

When I came out of the box I realised how shaky I was because I almost fell over when I stood up. Now all the pressure was off me, my breathing had gone back to normal. I sat down next to my lawyer as David stood up and was put in his witness box. My lawyer asked him questions, I swear he didn’t blink once he was just glaring at me. Making my heart beat a thousand miles per hour.

There was a small break were I could speak to Jay and my lawyer. I looked across the room to see David glaring at me and jay but ‘yeah’-ing to his lawyer at the same time. I was scared. What if David was going to harm us.
“Order! Order!”
The court went silent and the judge was making his verdict. My heart raced as he ‘humm’-ed near the mic, my breathing went shaky and I tensed up as he opened his mouth and said…

“GUILTY.”

Feedback welcome. I hope it was good. Sorry it was a bit of a wait Xxx

Part 1 - my life without you

I was in my last lesson on a Friday. I was sat in the corner of i.c.t just staring out the window at the rain. I sighed. It’s been about a month since Sophie left. It was still really down about it. Every now and then I broke down in tears and it was my fault she’s gone. I could of done more to stop her. I felt a jolt. I looked away from the window at the class. Chris nudged me with his elbow…
“what’s up?”
He said. I like Chris he’s so caring and I could never go out with him. All my so called ‘friends’ loved him too. But he has a girlfriend. I sighed again ignoring him. I couldn’t exactly tell him. I might cry.
“nothing”
I lied. I do it all the time. I beat myself up because of it. I should tell the truth but there’s always something in the way.
“ok. You just bored?”
“yeah”
I lied again. That was the lie I used often. I’m surprised they haven’t twigged that I’m bored all the time. They never notice me. I’m invisible. Always have. Always will be. There’s not much point in me even living anymore. I’ve felt this way before. I can’t do it any longer. There is anything worth living for anymore. I looked back out the window. I saw some eyes. I jumped. Then they were gone. I swear I was seeing things. But this has been happening ever since Sophie went.

I went back to do work. It was so boring. I saved my work and shut my computer down. Then I sat and stared out the window waiting to go. Then I saw a face. No It can’t be. That’s not possible. I saw Sophie’s face. Staring right at me.. I knew it was her, the blonde hair, blue eyes. I can’t believe it. My jaw dropped in shock. I jolted again. And blinked. Sophie was gone. I looked up at Chris…
“we can go.”
“oh…yeah…right.”
I stood up calmly and tuck my chair in. I followed Chris out the room. Almost straight away he looked at me and said…
“what happened back there? You went all pail.”
“oh…umm…I feel ill.”
I lied. I had to lie. I couldn’t say ‘oh I just saw my dead friend out the window staring at me’ could I? This made me miss her more. Chris walked off and I started my cold tiring walk home in the rain.

I put my head phones in and listened to The Wanted Sophie’s favourite band. I couldn’t stop thinking about them and her ever since she left. I couldn’t bare it anymore. I had to see her. I want to die to see her. I want to be with her. I can’t believe she left me.

I stopped dead in my tracks. There she was. A tear started to roll down my cheek. Then I heard her beautiful voice.
“don’t cry.”
I was speechless. First I can see her now I can hear her! Her body started to fade away. I shouted…
“DON’T GO!”
but she did. More tears started to drip down my face. I can’t believe she left me again. Every time she went my heart breaks into a thousand pieces. If I died it wouldn’t. I have to go.

I got home and went upstairs. I put The Wanted on full blast. Drowning myself in tears and music. I berried my head in my pillows and cried. I looked up and to the left to see her sat on the side of the bed. Looking at me.
“your back!”
I smiled. She nodded. I was about to tell her that I wanted to join her. But she spoke first…
“I’ve heard your thoughts. I know you want to join me. You can’t. I was sent here to stop you.”
“but I want to. You did it! Why can’t I?”
I said undefeated.
“you can’t because your too special.”
“you are special. You went!”
“I was stupid. Look you don’t want to be where I am. I know I shouldn’t of left you. I know now how many people cared.”
“so why can’t you come back?!”
“I’m dead. You can’t come back from death.”
“you shouldn’t have gone.”
“I know.”
She said. Her face dropped into sadness.
“I miss you loads”
“I know”
She said. Tears started to fall from her face.
“no don’t cry.”
I said.
“why are crying? You said you’d be happier if you left.”
“I know, but I’m not. I miss you”
“I miss you more. If I died then we could be together.”
I said hopeful.
“no. They’d punish me if I didn’t complete my task.”
“who?”
“the angles that sent me here. You get a task to save someones life. I have to save yours”
“that’s no fair.”
I said tears pouring out of both our eyes. I didn’t want it to be like this and neither does she.

Feedback welcome. Sophie (@JaythanILoveYou) please don’t go, that’s my life without you. :’( xxxxxxx

Can you tweet her not to do it thank you.

I’m losing a friend. She is a good person. She thinks life hasn’t treated her well. She thinks it wouldn’t hurt others around her. She thinks no-one would miss her. She thinks I didn’t understand. I do. I’ve been there. I came so close but realised what I have to live for and stepped back. She may not be here in the morning but I will still be waiting, worrying, hoping she is still breathing.
Xxxxxxxxxxxxx love you always

Part 13 - thank you for everything

*a couple weeks later*

Me and Jay were a lot closer now. My apartment hasn’t quite been cleared up yet. We are going to court next month. I’m really nervous and scared for the outcome. But I didn’t want to think about it not today me and Jay are going shopping! Jay said he hasn’t really shown me London so he said we would go out all day and explore. Right now I was getting changed in jays bathroom. Me and Jay were friends I don’t know how he feels about me and I’m not too sure how I feel about him.

Since I found out Jays famous I made a new twitter so we could talk. I called it @MissConnie_x I like that name it sounded cute. Well I thought so and so did Jay. I picked up my phone and tweeted:

Hey! Going shopping with @JayTheWanted he says he’s going to show me around! Come along if you know the area better than Jay! ;P

Then I saw Jay tweet in reply to my tweet:

Oh no. There’s going to be a mop of fans. :/ haha! Would be hilarious if TWFanmily came along! :) xx

I saw some hilarious replies, I didn’t reply though. I got changed and walked out the bathroom, Jay was sat on the bed he looked at me straight in my eyes. Our gaze locked. I was wearing jeans, a stretchy tight blue vest and I held a cream cardi in my hand and my light brown handbag in the other. I had my hair up in a lose bun because I had a wash and there was this one piece of short fringe that came down in my eyes. I blowed it out of my face but it just fell down again. Jay stood up and tucked the lose bit of hair behind my ear but it fell down again. He sighed…
“doesn’t matter I’m taking it down.”
“oh”
Jay replied he sat back down on the bed. I put my bag next to him a flopped my cardi over the top. I walked back into the bathroom and took my hair down, in the mirror I saw through the door and saw jays reaction. He mouthed “wow” and smiled. I shook my head in disbelief.
————
I finished up in the bathroom…
“we can go now!”
I said to Jay as he looked up from his phone. He put it in his pocket handed my bag and cardi to me.
“thank you”
I said cheerily.
“let’s go”
Jay said taking my Gand leading me downstairs. We ran to the front door shouted some goodbyes and left today was going to be fun!

*Tyler’s P.O.V.*

Me and Nath were lying on his bed, gazing into each others eyes, I was in a daze. Our eyes were locked. I realised he was the one, the only one, he was perfect just the way he is. This was like the first time we had been alone in like a week. It was magical. Then Nathan came out with something so random but true…
“I’ve missed this. We should go away and spend more time together….wait! We should go away together! Just for the weekend. Please?”
“sure!”
I said excitedly I didn’t have to think of the reaction!
“wait…how is it going to happen?”
I said doubting it would actually work.
“I’ll figure something out. Just the weekend, Friday to…Monday. I’ll ask Jayne.”
Nath said. He rolled off the bed and grabbed his phone and started talking to Jayne, when he got off the phone he had a huge grin on his face. I took that as a yes. I smiled. We jumped off the bed and we both started packing. I didn’t really need to pack because a few days ago I brought a load of my stuff over, nath asked me too, so most of the the things I brought over I packed.
——————-
“I guess we leave tomorrow mornin’ then?”
“yeah”
I said. We were now sat on the sofa watching tv. Me and Nath were sat very close together I had my head rested on his shoulder and Nath was entwining my fingers with his. I looked up to Nath and smiled. He looked me deap in the eyes and kissed me passionately but hard. It was better than all those little kisses he’d been giving me over the time we’d known each other. This time he proper full on snogged me. I pulled away…
“hold it there nath…”
“sorry. I’ll save it for the weekend?”
He gave me a wink and I couldn’t help but giggle like I was high. Now I was really excited for the weekend. Just me and him. Who knows what we’ll get up to!

*Meg’s P.O.V.*

I just got out the shower Siva was downstairs making us breakfast because he is the sweetest. I was singing to myself whilst I got changed and did my make up and hair. I was singing Your Song by Ellie Goulding. I love that song. I walked into the bedroom, past the bed to the double doors leading out to the balcony that was shared with the spare room. I looked at the view of the park then the cathedral and in the horizon you could just see the centre of London as I sang and closed my eyes, feeling the song. Then I felt these warm arms wrap around my waist. I felt a weight on my head. I opened my eyes to see Siva’s defined cheekbones resting on my head in the reflection off of the glass.
“you can sing.”
“nope”
I said ignoring him.
“don’t deny it.”
He said determined.
“you can sing. You are great. And you know it.”
“thank you.”
“that’s ok. You needed to hear the truth.”
I slowly turned around still with Siva’s arms around me so we were face to face. He looked at me deeply and kissed me. It was beautiful. We pulled out of the kiss and Siva took my hand and whispered “shut you eyes” in my ear and I shut them. He lead me downstairs into a room, I’m guessing the kitchen because A. we went right B. he had just made me breakfast. I smelt a full English. He said I could look and I opened my eyes to see a beautifully laid out table with roses and a napkin in the shape of a swan.
“it’s amazing. Thank you.”
“it’s ok. Anything for you.”
He said kissing me softly. We sat down and ate. Afterwards we were both stuffed and it tasted so good. I couldn’t thank him enough.

———————————

*My P.O.V.*

It was a perfect day. I got to explore the whole of London. And now it was time to go home. We strolled out of the mall and it started to tip it down with rain. Jay grabbed my hand and pulled me to the empty streets we ran to our bus stop getting soaked. It was so much fun and spontaneous. I wasn’t really a spontaneous person. But that just had to be done. We slumped on the bus stop seat…
“what now?”
I said.
“I guess we just wait.”
“wait…” I sighed “everything you ever do in life you have to wait for.”
“mmm…let’s not wait then.”
Jay said on a positive note. He was going to make me forget about David and everything down in my life. I know I’m going to be happy if I’m with Jay.

Jay turned to me and put his hand in front of me. I took it. We jumped up at the same time and ran into the pouring ran. We were absolutely soaked. We ran most of the way but eventually we just started strolling hand in hand with the warm rain droplets touching us as we went.

Suddenly Jay stopped and so did I. He turned to my and took my other hand. We were now face to face. I was looking up to him and he was looking down to me intensely. I didn’t quite know what we were doing. I started thinking. Thinking about David and how I just got rid of him and why I didn’t do it sooner. Thinking about how much Jay has helped and cared. Thinking that without him I’d be living on the streets or still stuck back at home with David and his beating. My eyes started to water but I tried so hard to not cry. Jay bent down and gave me a little kiss on my cheek. I blinked and a tear rolled down the other cheek. I whispered in his ear…
“thank you for everything”

I truly meant it without him I’d be dead.

Feedback welcome. I hope it was good. Sorry it was a bit long. Xxx

Part 11 - hopefully

*My P.O.V.*

Everyone had just left. The nurse walked up to the blood bag that was attached to me, and she tapped it. I don’t know why, then she mumbled to herself and wrote some stuff down. She looked at the heart rate monitor and wrote some more stuff down. It was all very boring.
“ok. After your stitches you may be able to go home but the police will want to talk and look round your house.”
“ok.”
I smiled but inside I felt guilty and worried. If they took David away he would break out and come after me. I wasn’t safe.

—————————-

She had done my stitches and the police were outside waiting for the doctors to say they could come in. The doctor opened my door and the police men came through.
“hello”
One of the officers said.
“hello”
I replied.
“we just want to talk about what happened and get this situation cleared up.”
“Ok”
“right was there any witnesses there?”
“ummm I don’t think so. But my friends called the ambulance I think.”
“ok”
He said writing stuff down.
“where are these friends?”
“outside…waiting.”
I replied.
“ok. I’ll stay here and my partner will speak to them whilst I do so. Is that ok?”
“yes!”
“good. We want at least three stories to get a clear picture. We will be recording all ok?”
“yep.”
“right. How did this happen to you?”
“well…my “boyfriend” stabbed me and well I fainted.”
“ok. Can we have some background?”
The officer asked. I went on to tell him everything. It took a while before I heard the next question.
“thank you. Where is he now?”
“umm…I don’t know. Sorry he slammed the door on me and then I phone Jay one of my friends before fainting.”
“ok. We need a clear description of him or a photo or drawing?”
“errr…I could find a photo for you back at my flat?”
“sure. Where is this flat?”
I tolled him everything about the flat and about David and where he usually goes after beating me. All the way through he nodded and wrote stuff. It must of taken ages before we finished. Once we had finished I heard something I didn’t quite understand from the officer.
“right…we know Jay’s situation so we need to clear that up before we make any moves.”
“jays situation?”
I asked…I was confused. What situation?
“outside.”
He said as if it was obvious. I opened the curtain to see hundreds of photographers. Why were they here? Was it about me?
“I don’t understand.”
I said confused.
“um…we will bring Jay in fir a chat.”
Then as the officers were walking out my room to fetch Jay I heard one mumble “she doesn’t know.” what? I don’t know…know what? I was hoping Jay could clear up this mess.

Jay walked in. All happy and cheery until he saw my face and his smile turned into a ‘oh’ face, like had just realised something.
“so what’s going on outside?”
I asked.
“ahh…”
His face dropped and he looked at the floor.
“about that…yeah…I umm..humm…”
He rubbed the back of his neck while he thought of words to say.
“how can I put this?…I’m kind of a little…I’m in a band.”
Ok that shouldn’t of been hard to say that.
“and…?”
I said wanting to know more. Jay didn’t answer so asked a different question.
“fine…what’s the name of this band?”
Surely he could answer that.
“The Wanted.”
He smiled.
“great…where do you play? In uni?bars?”
I said still not sure what was going on.
“bars? Uni? No…no we play at festivals, gigs.”
He smiled again expecting me to know something.
“right…what music do you cover?”
I asked still not sure what Jay was in this ‘band’ for.
“cover? We don’t cover…well sometimes we do but mostly we write our own songs.”
“do people buy these songs?”
I said a little less confused but still confused.
“yeah…we’ve had 2 number 1’s and we’ve had an album and we’ve got a new one coming out soon.”
“oh…”
I think He was now confused and I wasn’t so much.
“so your like famous?”
“yeah. Did you not know?”
“no…David never let me socialise so I didn’t have friends or keep up to date with anything. The only time I would be informed of the outside world would be at Christmas and we would go to my mums house and spend it with her and watch TV and news. It would be the only time David wouldn’t beat me.”
I sobbed. Jay had a look of shock on his face.
“I’m sorry he did that to you.”
I put his hand on my shoulder and kissed my forehead.
“those photographers are for me and the boys.”
“so the boys in your house are the boys in your band!”
“yep. Soon we will all get our own flat it’s not very private sharing a house.”
I looked up at Jay and thought I should get out of his life. He doesn’t want some girl causing trouble. He doesn’t want me in the way of his fame.

Then the officers came back and tolled us the car park was cleared of photographers and we can go back to my flat so the police can find evidence to support my case and so they can find David and put him on trial.

————-

Me and Jay walked out the hospital. Jay had his arm around me, he was like a little bodyguard. Behind us was Tom and Iona holding hands. And next to them was Max and Amber. Max had his arm around Ambers waist. Amber was looking into Max’s eyes. They looked adorable together. Tyler was skipping along side me all happy.

The police drove me Iona and Jay back to my flat and Tom took his car with Tyler in and Max and Amber took his car. We got to my flat and I opened to door to a pool of blood. My blood. It was disgusting. The police walked in and tolled us not to touch anything because it may ruin evidence against him. They bagged up the knife and various objects around the house. The said I could take some clothes but I couldn’t stay here.
“do you have a place to sleep?”
The officer said. I looked at Jay and Iona.
“she can stay at ours.”
Jay said. I was going to stay there anyway.
“right we need to barricade this off from public. This floor can’t be used.”
“what?”
Iona said.
“I’m sorry miss but you will have to sleep somewhere else too.”
Iona looked at me and I nodded.
“she can stay with Tom.”
“thank you.”
Iona smiled.
“we will put barriers round the door so people can go on the stairs just not down the hall way.”
“ok”
I replied. They tolled us a little plan to arrest David when he got home. I packed up somethings and so did Iona. We headed out the building, we had to walk Tom had taken the car back to their house. Finally everything would start getting better, hopefully.

Feedback welcome. Its a bit long sorry. I hope it was ok? xxxx

Part 10 - Why?

*Jays’ P.O.V.*

Connie had just left so I ran upstairs to tidy my room it was a tip, I couldn’t have Connie sleep in a bomb site. I Threw my phone on the bed and started to fold clothes. I heard my phone buzz and then it started to play Glad You Came my phone showed ‘Connie’ on it. I answered. I was so happy she was going to be staying.
“Hello!”
I said cheerily but she didn’t answer all I heard was this…well…a struggling to breath noise as if it was the phone was breaking up. It was strange and I was confused then I was about to ask her what’s going on and then I heard a very quite and whispered “help” then a thud and it was silent.
“Connie?”
“What happened? CONNIE?”
I shouted I panicked. What happened? Where was she? Was she ok? All these questions were running through my head. I took the phone and ran downstairs. I ran into the living room before stumbling over the bottom step.
“IONA?!”
I shouted. With a tear down my face fearing the worst.
“what? What is it Jay?”
She said calmly but caring.
“it’s…it’s…Connie!”
I said struggling to get my words out.
“huh?”
“Connie…she’s…well..i don’t know.”
“then what are you worrying about?”
“well on the phone she said ‘help’ and I don’t know what to do.”
Iona jumped up and Tom followed I ran straight behind her. We ran to our car and drove as fast as we could to Connie’s flat, Iona giving directions. Iona let us in the building then we spirited up then three flights of stairs. Iona pointed to Connie’s door. It was shut.
“I’ve got a spare key.”
Iona ran across the hall into her flat when she quickly emerged with a key. She hurriedly opened Connie’s door. What I saw made me angry, upset, confused and very shocked. I couldn’t believe my eyes. How could someone have the physical and mental strength to do that to a person. It made me sick.

I ran to her side. She had a lot of blood pouring out of her. Iona grabbed her phone and called an ambulance. Tom sat behind me and stroked my back repeatedly saying “she’ll be ok, everything will be fine.” but would it? Really? I shot up and grabbed a kitchen towel I put it over where the blood was coming from. Almost immediately the towel was blood stained red. I threw the towel across the room in anger. I stood up and stormed into the bedroom. I was mad! I started throwing things around the room. Why? Why do this to an innocent girl? I was f*ck*ng livid with David! I calmed down and walked back to Iona, Tom and Connie. I heard sirens.
“that must be the ambulance.”
Iona said. Then out of the corner of my eye I saw Connie’s hand move. I knelt down. She opened her eyes.
“what’s going on?”
She said. I was so shocked.
“come on we need to get her to the ambulance.”
Iona said taking one arm and me the other with tom behind shutting the door.

*My P.O.V.*

Jay took one arm and Iona on the other together they lifted me off the ground and shifted me out the door. I knew I was heavy, I saw the look on jays face as he struggled to carry me, I would of helped but I couldn’t feel my legs so they were a bit useless. My stomach was killing and I felt very light headed. Then I felt even heavier as I felt Iona and Jays hands slide off my arms. I fell. Everything was black.

*Iona’s P.O.V.*

Connie collapsed I a heap on the floor between me and Jay. I think she had fainted. I wasn’t quite sure. It was horrible the way David treated her. I couldn’t believe she hadn’t tolled me sooner. I looked at Tom while me and Jay tried to pick her up again. Tom was looking very confused i mouthed ‘I’ll tell you later.’ to him. He had no idea what happened to Connie and what monster had done this.

We heard shouting from the stairs as me and Jay were trying to pick Connie up off the floor. It was the Paramedics they pushed me and Jay aside and gently shifted Connie onto a stretcher. They slowly moved her downstairs. Were they popped her in the back of the ambulance. I tolled Jay he could go so Tom didn’t upset Jay by asking what was going on in the car.

*Jay’s P.O.V.*

Iona let me go in the ambulance. But they said no because it’s only family allowed. They closed the ambulance doors and drive off. I started crying I was angry and just wanted her to be ok. Then we heard some snapping noises and turned around to see a small group of Paps. Great I wonder what they are going to spread now. I sniffled and and we got in the car and drove to the hospital. On the way I rang Siva who had taken Meg out, I tolled them not to come because I didn’t want a scene or to interrupt their fun. I also called Nath who was with Joana I told them the same. I then rang home. Max picked up and was confused as to why we had ran out the house. I said I’d tell then when I was or Connie was ready to. Max said they would come down now for support. Max was a great person and was lucky to have found Amber, she was caring and sweet just like max.

We got to the hospital. We walked up to the reception and asked what room Connie was in. She said “245” and we walked of to find it. By the time we got there Connie was awake. We walked in slowly, she looked very pale and out of it. She opened her eyes wider to see us.
“hi”
She said In a weak voice.
“hello”
We all said together and quietly.
“how are you?”
I asked.
“ok…I suppose. Where he stabbed me has to have stitches.”
I saw toms face blow up. He was new to this information. Iona stood on her tiptoes and whispered in his ear. His face calmed.
“so should I tell Tom and the rest yet?”
Iona spoke to Connie. Connie nodded and said when I’m stable and can go home I’ll sit everyone down and I’ll tell them now. Is that ok Tom?”
She asked.
“up to you. I’m just a little confused.”
Connie nodded. Then a nurse came through the door.
“hello mrs Summerfield.”
“hi”
Connie said weakly. It was horrible to see her in this state.
“ok I’m going to ask your friends to leave for a while. Is that ok?”
The nurse said to us. We nodded and walked outside and sat in the waiting room.

Feedback welcome. Its a bit long sorry. I hope it was ok? xxxx

Part 9 - how?

*2 hours later*

*Nath’s P.O.V.*

The film had finished and I got up and tidied my room. Joana would be here in half an hour. I was going to take Joana for a tea in town and catch up. I was really excited! Jay ran upstairs to tidy upstairs and Connie followed. Max and Siva cleared the mess in the kitchen whist Tom and Iona cleared up from last night. Amber and Meg were tidying in the living room. Before I knew it everything was done.

There was knock at the door and I went to answer it.
“Hello!”
“Hey!”
I gave Joana a hug and let her in. She looked amazing. She walked into the living room where everyone was, I followed her. I sat down while the boys in turn gave her a hug and a hello. I introduced all the girls. I didn’t know each of their relationships with each member but I knew mine. As I introduced Tyler, I held her hand and Joana smiled. I turned to Tyler and said…
“you don’t mind me going out for a couple of hours?”
“no”
She smiled and I got up and said me and Joana should be off now because I wanted to be back before 5 so we can all go out and eat. Today was going to be perfect.

I gave a hug and a kiss to Tyler before leaving her in the capable hands of the boys.

*My P.O.V.*

Nathan and Joana had gone out, Jay had just asked me to stay the night. I was happy to but I said I needed to get somethings from the flat. He said we would all go out and eat at some posh restaurant tonight but when I got back we were going to watch his favourite movie. Avatar, I’ve never heard of it because of David, I never did much and wasn’t that up to date. I walked into the living room to see Iona sat on Toms belly.
“what are you doing?”
I asked.
“He’s proving a point.”
“okayyyy…what point?”
“whether I can lift her off the ground using my abs.”
Tom said but by the sound of his voice he didn’t seem to be under that much pressure. I walked up to Iona and carried on with what I cane to do…
“can I have the car keys?”
“sure! Why?”
“Jay asked if I could stay the night so I was just going to pick up a few things.”
“cool!”
Iona said cheerily. I took the keys and walked out the door shouting
“I’ll be back in 5!”
Getting a huge ok from the house. I got in the car and drove.

—————————————

I got to the block. I ran up the three flights of stairs to my flat to see my door was wide open. Did someone brake in? I slowly jogged in the door and stopped dead in my tracks. It was my worst nightmare come true.
“HELLO!”
he said.
“how?”
Was all I could say.
“shut the door.”
He growled. I gulped. I had the worst feeling in my stomach.
“surprise.”
He said with no emotion what so ever.
“you know I hate surprises.”
“I guess that’s why I did it then.”
“how?”
“Oh, it was easy. I just went to your mum and asked if I could surprise you by popping down to your flat, she happily gave me the address. What a stupid stupid woman.”
I looked at the floor.
“well? Aren’t you going to give me a hug?”
He was twisted like that. He walked toasted me with his arms apart. He quickly dropped one arm and slapped me with the other.
“oops. Didn’t hurt did it?”
“no”
I said I was pretty used to it by now.
“oh well I guess I’ll have to hit you harder!”
He spat in my face and punched me in the eye. That hurt.
“I moved your things out of the bedroom and by the sofa because I’m nice like that.”
He smiled. All I gave him was a blank look and said…
“your staying?”
He nodded. That was great. He wasn’t ever going to let me out again. He gave me a blank look
“cheer up little girl.”
He said.
“no.”
I put it straight. I was finally going to tell him that he’s not welcome.
“what did you say?”
“I said no! And your not in control of me anymore and your not welcome here!”
I shouted at him. Then he grabbed my hair and dragged my to the counter, I couldn’t see what he grabbed but he stabbed it in my stomach and then threw it on the floor. I hugged my stomach in pain. He threw me on the floor and kicked me. He paused before kicking me again in the ribs. I was covered in blood. He put his foot on the side of my head and squished my face, making my nose bleed. He stepped over me and walked out the door, he slammed it behind him.

I could barely move. I reached to my phone that I dropped when I saw him. I quickly searched through my contacts to Jay. It rang two rings before he picked up.
“hello!”
He said really cheery. I couldn’t say much, I was in pain. The only word I managed to whisper was
“help”
I felt my eyelids get heavy and before I knew it everything went black.

Feedback welcome. sorry it’s a bit long. I hope it was ok? xxxx

Part 8 - Tantrum!

*Iona’s P.O.V.*

Straight after we got back me and Tom ran upstairs. Tom led me into his room and shut the door behind me he gently pushed me on the bed. He crawled up beside me. We were both drunk out of our minds. Tom started to stroke my cheek I looked into his beautiful eyes. Our faces got closer and closer until our noses touched. He moved his lips closer to mine and kissed me gently but with passion as if he wanted this for a long time. He pulled out of the kiss and started to leave a trail of kisses down my neck making me laugh it tickled but it was nice. He looked up to me and I kissed him on the forehead. He the rolled on top of me with a leg each side. He kissed me again with more force and heat. He pulled away for air and out of the total blue I sneezed. Making us laugh like absolute loons. But then all we could hear was a huge thud. We stopped laughing automatically. Tom rolled of me and got up to see what it was. He peeked round the door and laughed. He shut the door and came back to me saying
“Jay just fell flat on his face!”
We both laughed again, this night was hilarity.

*morning!*

I woke up next Tom who’s head was next to my shoulder. I don’t quite remember what happened last night but there was a lot of laughter. I kissed Toms head and got up I heard voices downstairs so I followed them everyone was up apart from Tom.
I walked in the living room and sat down next to Amber and watched what was on the TV. Everyone was looking at me in expectation.
“what?”
I said, and everyone had a creepy smile on their faces.
“what?!”
“did you not realise how loud you were last night?”
Connie laughed. I smiled she probably heard me and Tom laughing last night.
“haha! You heard the laughing then.”
“yeah! What was so funny?”
Connie replied and so I told them about how drunk we were and how Tom in the middle of the night, well sort of morning we went to bed that late, woke me up by falling off the bed and started to tantrum whilst getting back up and back to my side.

*Toms P.O.V.*

I woke up and my head hurt so much. I quickly ran to the bathroom and was sick. Almost automatically I felt better. I wondered down stairs to find Iona. As soon as I entered to living room everyone started laughing and pointing at me. What had I done? Iona had a cheeky smile on her face.
“what’s so funny?”
“you last night!”
Jay joked.
“oh”
I said miserably, I hated it when they took the piss. I stormed into the kitchen and made myself some tea. Then max came in and said they were only having a laugh. But I didn’t find it funny. I made my tea and forgot about it.

*Nathan’s P.O.V.*

Today Joana was coming over she was a great sister and I couldn’t wait to meet her we hadn’t seen each other in ages. I ran excitedly to Tom and Max in the kitchen and tolled the news! I was so happy. Tyler walked in and said…
“what are you so giddy about nath?”
“my sis is coming over. She’s called Joana. Your going to love her!”
I said. Hoping Tyler would get along with her. The chances were pretty high because Joana’s such a great person.
“ok!”
Tyler smiled. She was going to come at 12 and she was going to get a taxi from the station even though I offered to pick her up.

*Ambers P.O.V.*

Max came back into the living room and Iona got up so max snuggled up next to me on the sofa. I said thanks to Iona before she left the room. Jay and Connie were squished to each other on the arm chair and Siva and Meg were curled up next to each other on the corner sofa. The TV was playing finding Nemo. I love that film. I was guessing the rest of the day was going to be like this lounging around, watching films. A while later Tom and Iona came back and Tom put Iona on his lap and put himself next to Siva. The Tyler and Nath came jumping back into the room and cuddled up to each other on the giant beanbag in the middle of the floor. I rested my head on Max’s chest and felt his breathing get heavy. I then felt a gentle kiss on the top of my head. I knew Max was a great friend but would he be a great boyfriend? I thought all the times I’ve seen him with a girl he’s treated them like their royalty, that was good. And I suppose that answered my question. A smile appeared on my face.
