Tequila's Pov.
I'm hiding behind some sort of cart..no it's a fruit stand, it looks really old, two of the four wheels are gone, the wooden stand has chips craved into it, the metal poles are all rusty and bent. In the distance was just fog nothing but fog and puddles on the floor. There's a shadowy figure walking my way, I can't make out who it is or what it wants.
"YOU CAN'T RUN AWAY FOREVER, I'M GOING TO FIND YOU AND WHEN I DO I'M GOING TO MAKE YOU REGRET YOUR DECISION" a loud voice shouted, trashing everything to find me.
"Leave me alone, go away" I whispered to myself.
I could hear the dark figure messing with a gun, I'm sure of it.
I turned my head around the cart and was expecting to see the figure but nothing was there, I was still really scared I don't know who it is, or why it's after me, I turned back to how I was before, my knees bent into my chest with arms around them, my head facing in front of me when there it was.
"TOLD YOU!" it shouted holding the gun to my face.
ARHHHHHHHH" I screamed but nothing come out.
Nathan's Pov.
I was going up the stairs when I heard screaming, my eyes snapped open, my heart beating out of my chest, I knew that scream I knew the voice, it was Tequila, I ran even faster to her room to see her gasping for breath, griping her sheets to find something to hold onto, sweating profusely.
"TEQUILA? TEQUILA? WAKE UP ANSWER ME!" I demanded running up to her, pulling her up from her bed.
Her eyes shot open, looking around the room as if she had seen a ghost, her hand on her head the other over her mouth, her hands were shaking constantly.
"What's wrong? why were you screaming" I asked, pulling her into a hug, she pulled herself away and put her hand out in front of her to stop me getting any closer.
"Tequila..it's me..Nathan" I spoke, trying to hold her hand.
"Get away from me NOW!" she screamed, pulling her hand away from mine.
"I'm trying to help, please let me"
"GET OUT! DON'T TOUCH ME!" She screamed even louder.
"Okay, okay, I'm going look calm down" I backed out of the room with both of my hands in front of me to tell her 'I'm innocent'.
'What have I just witnessed?' I thought to myself.
I stood outside her bedroom door I wasn't leaving my spot until I knew what was wrong with her.
I had been stood here for 30 minutes so I decided I need to rest my legs and went to go and get my pillows and blanket from my room and bring them back here, but when I got them of my bed I tripped on my blanket and fell on the floor, I was so tired and comfortable I rested my eyes for a bit and fell asleep without knowing.
3 days later.
Tequila hadn't come out of her room in days, and when she did she'd only do it to go to the bathroom, she would walk past us and not say a word, not even a glance it's like we wasn't there, and when we spoke to her she'd look at us and run away and lock her bedroom door. She hadn't eaten either if she didn't eat soon she will become really ill, Jay had a mental break down, he was over Max's for a few nights he didn't want to be around me and Tom or Tequila because none of us told him about Liam, Tom and myself are sorting things out, we thought we needed to get along for Tequila's sake.
I made some tea with 2 sugars in for her and some soggy toast with the butter melted in just the way she likes it.
"I'm just running this up to Tequila" I told Tom.
"Alright, tell me how she's doing yeah?"
"Sure"
I didn't have to tell him about what she did every night, he heard himself last night.
Last night.
Tom's Pov.
There I was sound asleep dreaming about..well you don't need to know, my blanket wrapped around my legs, my legs were half way of the bed when I was woken up by a terrible, loud, harsh, high pitched scream that caused a sensation of panic and fear to those who heard it, it sounded like an alarm and need of help, I rolled off the edge of my bed with a big thud.
"What on earth is that?" I asked myself.
I heard loud footsteps running up or down stairs, I got up of the floor picking up a baseball bat and walked slowly following the scream, when I saw Nathan running upstairs.
"Oi, what's going on?" I shouted, still half asleep.
"It's Tequila..again" he got quieter near the end of his sentence.
'Again?..why haven't I heard he scream before?' I questioned my thoughts, picking up the pace in my movement running towards Tequila's room.
"DONT HURT ME! WHAT DO YOU WANT? PLEASE DONT.." Tequila screamed.
"Stay here" Nathan told me, I followed his order.
I stood by the door of Tequila's room as Nathan ran towards her sitting beside her on the bed, he put his right arm over her body to the other side of the bed, and his left arm on her head.
She woke up and believe it or not she looked shocked to see him.
"What are you doing here? go away" she muttered, trying to sit up.
"Lie down you're okay now, it was just a dream"
"What are you doing to me?"
"I'm helping you,"
"I don't need your help GET OUT!"
Nath lifted himself off the bed and walked towards me pushing me out the door.
"I'm going" he mentioned to her, I could see a tear falling from the corner of his eye.
"You alright mate?" I asked him.
"Don't talk to me, I'm still mad at you"
"We need to forget the past and be prepared for the future"
"FORGET THE PAST...YOU HIT ON MY GIRLFRIEND, YOU GOT HER BEAT UP!!"
"If we don't forget it we can't help her"
He didn't say nothing, he looked down at his feet and wiped his eyes.
"Even if you're right, she doesn't want anybody near her, I've tried so hard so many times, each night she does this and she pushes me away"
"Then we'll do it together"
"Alright, we'll talk to her tomorrow"
Back to reality
Tequila's Pov.
I was holding onto the balcony of a bridge, holding onto my life as the figured body revealed itself, short brown flat hair flowing over his forehead, his eyes starring into mine, a huge smile grew upon his face that's when I saw who he was..TOM.
"YOU SHOULD HAVE PICKED ME..NOW YOU'RE GOING TO REGRET THAT DECISION" his Bolton accent shouted.
"I didn't want you, why are you ruining my life?"
"Because we could of had a marriage, a family didn't you want that?"
"Yes, but not with you, I love Nathan not you"
"URGG BYE-BYE!"
Before I knew it I was falling from the bridge, failing with a massive splash the water filled my mouth pulling me down as I tried to swim I just kept going under even deeper.
'Why is this happening?' I questioned myself.
"HELP! SOMEBODY HELP"
"I'm here, I'm here, you're safe everything going to be alright just let me help you" a strong, caring voice whispered, I woke up to see Nathan holding me tight, his hands placed on my back , my head resting in the bend of his arm.
"GET AWAY!" I screamed without thinking.
"You've pushed me away so many times I'm not letting you do it again"
I lay on his arms without making a sound, taking every thing in he had said or was about to say.
"What?"
"You keep pushing me away,"
"No I don't"
"You do"
"When?"
"Every night for the past 4/5 nights"
"I haven't even seen you at night"
"You don't remember?"
"Remember what?"
"You've been screaming in the middle of the night, every night at 2;45 exact, every time I came in you told me to go away, get out of your room"
"I never did that"
'What was he going on about? why would I push him away?' I thought to myself.
"You seriously don't remember? even Tom heard you"
I just sat there silent before saying "the only time I have said anything like that was in my dream"
"What was it about?"
"Tom..he was in a black cloak and he pushed me off a bridge, held a gun to my head and said I should have gone out with him and not you"
"That explains a lot, well listen nobody will ever..ever hurt you again, Tom..he wouldn't do a thing like that to you"
"I know, I'm really sorry"
"Don't be, you just got to allow me to help you"
"I will"
He pulled me into a hug and didn't let me go for a while until the door slammed.
"Tom..Nath we need to talk..NOW!" a loud, angry voice yelled.
"Is that Jay?" I asked.
"Yeah, he's been with Max for a few days"
"Why?"
"Because we told him about what Liam did to you how he used to hit you every day"
"Why did you do that?" a tear fell from my eye to my cheek to my chin.
"We had to, it was for the best"
"He hates me don't he?"
"No..no, he hates me and Tom"
"It's all my fault, I've got to clear this up"
