Xavier’s POV
Its been 15 minutes since Bella went to washroom. I was starting to get worried. The place doesn’t seems to be crowded either.
“Emma can you go and check and see if Bella is ok?” I asked Emma worriedly. She nodded her head and went towards the bathroom, while the rest of us waited outside.
After few minutes, Emma came rushing outside. “S-She is not inside.” She said panting. I got scared and called he phone.
I heard her phone ring somewhere along the corridor. We went towards the sound and realised her phone was on the floor. I quickly picked up the phone. The phone had a crack on it.
I started to get really scared. “No, no. Where is she?” I asked panicking. I looked around to see if she is playing hide and seek or whatever.
But I couldn’t find her. “Xavier calm down. She must be somewhere here.” Andrew said trying to calm me down. But I can’t calm down till I see her.
Dean also seemed to be worked up. The both of us started to get worried and scared of where she could be.
The 5 of us went around searching for her around the theatre but we couldn’t find her. We also checked the nearby alley but we came up with nothing.
We called out for but no sound came. We came back to the front of the theatre. “I couldn’t find her.” Andrew said.
“Neither could I. Damn it.” Dean said frustrated. Emma and Ava started to tear up not knowing what happen to Bella. I looked around and saw there was a note in car.
I quickly ran to my car as the rest of them followed. I picked up the note and saw someone has written in it.
You will never be seeing her again. She has always been mine. Since the beginning. And she became mine finally. My sunshine.
The moment I read that note, saw red. Who the F*ck does he think he is? I was breathing heavily unable to control myself.
“Liam.” Both Dean and Andrew breathe out at the same time. The three of our head turn to them at the same time.
“Who is he?” I asked confused. The both of the were cussing in anger. Even Andrew, who is always calm and collected seemed to be in rage.
“WHO IS HE!” I demanded. The both of them tried to calm themselves. “Remember I told you about the guy who dated and abused Bella? That’s him.” Dean said still in anger.
” How do you know?” I asked not wanting believe it. If he was right, then Bella is in so much trouble. “He always called Bella sunshine.” Andrew said pinching the bridge of his nose.
This made me shiver in disgust. No one I allowed to call her like that except for me. “We need to find her brother, before something happens to her.” Emma said still tearing up.
This made me tensed. I will not let anything happen to her. I will lose my mind if something happens to her.
“I wont let anything happen to her. I promise.” I said as I picked up my phone. “Rocco, I need you to do something for me.”
Bella’s POV
I groaned as I tried to open my eyes. My head seemed to hurt a lot. As I open my eyes, I felt sun rays hit my eyes, as I quickly close my eyes.
After adjusting to the light, I finally flutter open my eyes. I got up from my sleeping position and looked around.
The moment I did, I started to panic. I was in an unfamiliar room. The bed I was lying in was quite hard. The room was painted blue and so was the bed.
I tried to remember what happen and suddenly everything hit me like a brick. Liam. It was him. I know for sure.
I started to panic. I can’t believe he’s back. I never thought I would ever see him again. God no. Please get me out of here. I start to tear up when I heard the door open.
The moment I looked there, I froze. All the colors drained. It was him. He was standing there smirking at me. He closed the door as he start walking towards me.
But I couldn’t register any of it. My mind was yelling at me to move, but my body was just frozen and wouldn’t move.
He took a seat in the bed, “Good morning sunshine.” the moment I heard his, my body unfroze and start to move back till I hit the bed board.
He laughed at my attempt. I started to cry as he came closer. He came close enough until his breathe was touching my face.
“I got you back, sunshine.” he said as he took a strand of my hair and start to twirl it around. I started to cry even harder as all the memories start flooding in.
“P-Please l-let me g-go.” I begged him. But he wasn’t having any of it. “I w-want to g-go b-back t-to Xavier.” I said wanting Xavier’s arms around me making me safe.
This got him angry as he grabbed a chunk of my hair and pulled them. “YOU ARE MINE. MINE!” he yelled at me.
I shook my head profusely refusing it. This got him more angry. He quickly unbuckle his belt, and pulled it. He twisted it around his.
I knew what he was going to do. “Please, please don’t do it.” I cried out. “You need to know who you belong to sunshine.” he said with a sinister smile.
I know there is nothing to change his mind. I tried to get up and run. I got the other side of the bed and run around from the opposite side. I ran to the door wishing it isn’t locked.
But before I could reach, he grabbed me by my hair, and pushed me into the bed. “No running from me sunshine. How many times do I have to tell you?” he asked shaking his head in disapproval.
I was begging him, but he wont listen. Soon the first hit land on me. I tried not to cry out loud, not wanting to give him the satisfaction. He continue to hit me
as I squirm around trying to make him stop. But he kept hitting me, until his anger vanished. He dropped the belt and walked out locking the door,
I dropped to the floor as I cried my eyes out. Hoping Xavier will find me soon and get me out of here. I prayed hoping Xavier would be here with me.
