I woke up and rolled over seeing Ross gone. I hoped he was still here, I didn't want to be alone today... not after what happened yesterday. I got up and walked to my bathroom, I jumped in the shower then got dressed. I left my hair down to air dry and brushed on some make up. I walked out and walked dwn to the kitchen, Ross was gone but there was a small note left on my counter.
Hey baby girl,
Sorry I left so early.
Riker called and told me we have to rehearse.
Call me if you need anything, I'll see you soon.
Love you!!
-Ross! <3
P.S. don't be scared.
I smiled then sighed. How was I not supposed to be scared... Dallas has teamed up with Ev, there both out to kill me, who knows where Will is... and they all know where I live... but Ross didn't know any of this...
I ate some breakfast and slipped my coat and boots on. I grabbed my bag and keys then left. I didn't bother taking the elevator, I didn't want to see Jesse right now... I walked to my car and saw a man with a black hoodie on across the parking lot. He stood there watching me with his arms crossed. I opened my car door and looked at him again, he tilted his head slightly. I could just barely see his face but... he looked like Will... The man took a step and started heading over to me. My hands started shaking, I knew this couldn't be good... I quickly got into my car and started it. The man ran over and banged on my window, I looked up to see Will looking at me through the window. I locked the doors just as he tried opening my door.
"Skylar open up. I just want to talk sweetheart, come on open up." he winked at me, I flipped him off and put my car in reverse. "you'll pay for this! you'll pay hard! I promise you I will get you one way or another, I will have you!! Do you hear me! YOU'RE MINE!" he screamed and punched my window, glass broke everywhere on me. some cut my arm slightly, before he could he could try to grab me I pulled out and drove away. As I was driving I tried brushing the glass off of me but that only resulted in cutting my hand open. My entire body was shaking, I didn't want to call Ross and ruin there rehearsal... and I didn't want him worrying about me. I couldn't go home, I couldn't go to Ross',I needed to clean up before I went grocery shopping which was my original plan. I saw a small coffee shop so I pulled in, I quickly got out and walked in. people looked at me funny, I walked to the bathroom and washed my hand and arm out, after I picked out all the small pieces of glass from my hair. I looked at my arm my sleeve was ripped showing the cut, my hand was still bleeding and I didn't have anything to wrap around it. I pulled my sleeve down and covered my hand then walked out, I stopped and looked at the woman at the cash register.
"can I help you?" she asked. She had long, red, strait hair that flowed past her shoulders and stopped on her lower back. She look up at me with bright green eyes. The girl wore a bright green shirt with a black skirt, a coffee apron was draped over them. her shoes were shiny black high heels, to high for me to walk in. I could barely walk with high heels on...
"um yeah... can I get a moca coffee?" I smiled and told her my order.
"of course!" she chuckled and went in back to get it ready. A little while later she came back and handed it to me. "it'll be three dollars." I handed her the money and she saw my hand. "oh my... are you okay?" she asked.
"oh... yeah" I slid my hand away.
"what happened?" she questioned looking at my arm.
"oh... um nothing... I slipped this morning." I chuckled trying to hide the fear in me.
"are you sure?" she eyed me the reached forward pulling a piece of glass from my hair. I looked down at my coffee. "JIM! I'll be back." the girl yelled and walked around the counter. "come." she insisted, she pulled me in the back room to the shop. "are you in danger?" she wondered.
"uh... no..." I lied.
"then why is your window to your car shattered everywhere?" I looked out the window at my car then my hand.
"uh... I uh..." I didn't know what to say to her... how did she know? why would she care?
"listen... I'm Misty, if you need anything just call. got it?" she said as she wrote something on a piece of paper and handed it to me.
"Sklyar' I introduced myself. 'and thank you." I said taking the paper.
"you sure you're okay?" she looked into my eyes.
"yeah I'm fine." I smiled, she nodded and hugged me. "I- uh got to go but thank you!" I smiled again and left. I drove over to the park and walked to the spot, I sat down on the large log and sighed. I looked at my hand then at the sky. "why does this have to always happen to me?" I asked, there was only one person I was talking to right now... that was God. "every time everything starts going good... someone has to screw it up... I know it's not your fault... I just wish I knew what will happen to me... what's gong to happen to Ross? and his family? Please don't let Ross get hurt... that would kill me." I mumbled.
"special." a voice echoed through my head, I jumped to my feet and looked around me.
"hello?' I paused. 'anyone there?" no one answered.
"one." the voice said again.
"who's there?" I said terrified, you could tell I was frightened just from my voice. once again no one answered me... I couldn't stay there any longer... I flt like someone was watching me now... was I just imagining the voice... no that was too real... I grabbed my coffee and ran back to my car. I got inside and dove down the road. I tried calling Ross but he didn't pick up... I felt like someone was following me... a car came around the corner and pulled up behind me, I began making my way down the road unsure of where I'd go when I realized the car was following me. I stopped and the car pulled up to my side. there was no need to roll my window down considering it was totally shattered.
"hey sweetheart." Will laughed from inside the other vehicle. I looked in seeing Ev was the driver. My eyes widened in fear as my body started trembling again. Ev smirked and looked at me. Will opened his door and stepped out, I quickly pressed the gas pedal and drove away. I was freaking out inside, I gripped the steering wheel tight. It was getting dark and I had only two choices. go home and most likely get kidnapped from Will and Ev or go to Ross' and risk putting his family in danger. I couldn't do that... My phone started ringing so I quickly answered.
"babe?" Ross' voice echoed through the phone.
"Ross!" I said kinda happily.
"are you alright?"
"yeah... I'm fine..." I lied.
"okay good, I want you to come over." he told me, I gulped.
"I-I uh can't."
"why not?" he questioned
"because... I-I gotta go home..." I was still shaking.
"babe... what's going on? you sound terrified." I could tell Ross was getting worried.
"I-I'm fine." I tried not to cry.
"baby? where are you?"
"in my car... I was just heading back from the park..." I said pulling off to the side of the road. before Ross could say anything the passenger side window was smashed. Glass sprayed me again. I screamed as the guy yelled as he smashed the window.
"Babe!! Skylar??" Ross yelled in the phone.
I looked over and saw Will peek his head in and grip the side of my car.
"did you miss me?" he laughed. I slammed my foot down on the gas and quickly drove down the road.
"Skylar?" Ross sounded like he was panicking. I was breathing deeply.
"yeah Ross... I'm here." I held back my sobs.
"what's happening? why'd you scream?" I had to tell him.
"Will..."
"Will? oh shit!! the guy who attacked you last week?"
"yes." I cried.
"what happened?"
"he smashed my window, their following me!" I wiped my eyes.
"drive here now!" he ordered me.
"no Ross no. I can't risk you guys getting hurt." I sobbed.
"Skylar I don't care. get here as fast as you can don't stop!" he told me. I drove over and parked outside. I quickly got out seeing Ev's car coming around the corner.
"there!" Ev yelled and pointed at me. I ran to the door and banged, someone opened it and I fell inside. I heard them shut the door and lock it.
"Baby!" Ross gasped and pulled me into his arms.
"their outside!" I cried in total fear. Ross brushed the glass off of me and looked at my arm. There was a loud bang on the door making both Ross and I jump.
"RIKER!! ROCKY!! RYLAND! EL!! GUYS!!!" Ross screamed up the stairs.
"Skylar open up! we know your in there!" Ev laughed.
"what's going on?" Riker asked as everyone ran into th room. Another loud bang filled the room.
"Ev's out there with the guy who attacked Sky last week. they chased her here." he told them.
"SKYLAR!!" Will shouted making me jump, tears flooded my eyes. Riker went to the door and peeked out the curtains on the door. He pulled away and looked at me with frightened eyes.
"he's big..." he mumbled, I gulped. Ross held me tighter against him. Rydel came around the corner.
"will someone answer the-"
"Skylar!!!!" Ev screamed cutting Rydel off.
"never mind..." Rydel murmured. "what's going on?" she asked us.
"Ev's outside with Will, the guy who attacked Skylar last week... there trying to get to her." Ross told them.
"what are we going to d-" Rydel was cut off again by the door being kicked in. I gasped as Ross moved himself in front of me. The guys moved beside me along with Rydel behind Rocky.
"there you are sweetheart!" Will smiled at me. Ross scowled at him.
"Hello Ross!" Ev grinned holding a knife beside her. My breathing increased as I gripped tighter onto Ross' arm.
"get out!" Riker growled. Will walked forward towards Riker, I grabbed his arm and pulled him back towards me. Will looked me dead in the eye and turned around quickly. I watched as He punched Rocky across the face, I gasped. Riker's hands bawled into fists along with the rest of the guys. Rocky rolled over on his back gripping his jaw, he moaned in pain. Rydel knelled down and grabbed Rocky's shoulder.
"Rocky are you okay?" She moved his hair out of his face.
"y-yeah... I think I'm good." he said and stood up. He looked at Will then me then Ross. He walked over with Rydel and stood beside us.
"Skylar!" Will said angrily, I looked up meeting his cold dark eyes. "you know what will happen..." he grinned... he's right I do know what will happen if I don't give myself up to them... he- they'll hurt Ross and his family... I told myself before...
I won't let that happen...
