CHAPTER THIRTEEN

CHAPTER THIRTEEN
Laura Paley’s POV
The sound of Chris Brown’s voice woke me up from my slumber , what happened ?
I remember talking to Zoey minutes ago and suddenly everything was black , I held my head in pain as a merciless headache attacked my head .
I tried to move my leg but it was stuck , I tried my arms too but I got same result , I opened my eyes and saw that I was in a really dark room , I could hardly see anything around .
I looked down and saw that my legs and arms had been tied together , I tried to shout but my screams were muffled , a tape duct had been placed on my mouth .
I looked around to Access the whole situation but couldn’t decipher where I was , it was totally different from the former room I was kept in , this room had the vibe of a basement .
I struggled to break free but it was to no avail , after tugging at the ropes for what seemed like forever without a positive response I decided to sing along with the Song blasting off the speaker .
Cause baby
Everything that I have is yours
You will never go cold nor hungry
I’ll be there when you’re insecure
Tell me babe that you’ll always want me girl
Cause you’re , the only thing that I’ve got right now
One day when the sun is shining
I’ll be standing right –
The music was suddenly stopped and I heard footsteps coming closer .
“ I see you’re enjoying yourself “ Annie said coming into my view .
“ You like the song ?” she asked and I gave her a WTF look
“ Oh sorry “ she said removing the tape in my mouth roughly .
Awwwww , that hurts
“ Why are you keeping me here ? I didn’t do nothing wrong “ I said
“ ahhhh poor Laura , you still think you did nothing wrong don’t you?”
“ I told you Mr Harlow and I are not in any sort of relationship , I’m just an ordinary secretary and I swear Annie I don’t see him in that light at all “ I said and she smiled at me
“ It’s been three hours , why is he not here yet ?” she asked
“I told you I’m not his girlfriend and It’s not like I’m special to him or anything “I said
“ Do you even – “
Her words were cut short as her right hand man aka the dude that smashed my car walked in and whispered something in her hear .
“ whoa ! Great timing “ she clapped
Great timing ?
“ Guess who’s here ” she said
Oh my God he’s here ?
Mr Harlow is here ?
I never thought he would come , good job Zoey .
“ Thank God he’s here , can you let me go now ? I’m sure you two got a lot to discuss , I don’t wanna disturb you or something “ I said
“ You’re right , we do have a lot to discuss but my dear I’m not done with you yet “ she said sending shivers down my spine.
“ Untie her “ she said to the man who quickly swung into action and started untying me .
After loosing all the knots , he grabbed my arm and started dragging me to God knows where .
“ Hey you’re hurting me “ I said but he didn’t stop or even look at me , after a while he opened the door to an huge room and threw me inside .
I landed painfully on my butt .
Does he have a wife ? Or even kids? If so I hope he’s not abusing them or something …
I stood up from the floor and saw Annie seated in a cushion , opposite her was Mr Harlow looking untouchable in his Black suit .
“ Have your seat “ she said pointing at the seat beside Nick , I quickly obeyed her and sat my ass down .
“ Miss Paley are you ok ?” Nick asked
“ Yes … I am “ I replied then he directed his gaze to Annie
“ Annie really ? You had to do this?” he asked
“ oh please Nick don’t act like you didn’t see this coming “ she replied
“ Why ? Why would you do it ? You kidnapped someone … why ?”
“ It’s because of you Nick all because of you “
This seems like a lovers quarrel , why the hell am I still here ?
“ Me ?” he asked
“ Yes , I’ve loved you since I was little , every day of my life I thought about you , you were always on my mind “ She said
Awwwwnnn that’s so cute .
“ Annie you’re like a younger sister to me “ he said
Whoa ! I kind of saw that coming
“ Younger sister ? Nick you don’t fuck a younger sister “ she yelled
Oh shit !
“ That was a mistake , I was drunk and so were you “ he said
“ No , I wasn’t drunk , I remember everything that happened that night and I cherished it dearly … Nick I love you “ she said
Wow , what a confession
“ Why is Miss Paley here ?” he asked changing the topic
Finally ! Somebody acknowledges My presence
“ Miss Paley is here because of you “ she said
“ I told you Annie , Mr Harlow and I are not in a relationship , we’re not even friends “ I half yelled
“ I don’t care if you’re you both are in a relationship or not … Harold “ She said calling her right hand man .
So his name is Harold … he better fix my car , once I get out of here I’m getting his ass arrested .
Then suddenly I felt a hard objects on my head and immediately Nick panicked
“ Don’t do this “ Nick said
Don’t do what ? What is he putting on my head ?
“ Here’s the plan Nick , I’ll tell you what to do and you do it , failure to do so … your girlfriend’s brain will be scattered on the ground “ she said
Wait what ? His girlfriend’s brain ? Wait my brain ? Scattered ? Please tell me Mr Harold is not holding a gun to my head .
“ Annie you don’t have to do this , tell him to put down the gun and I’ll do whatever you want me to “ Nick said
“ You don’t tell me what to do , I have the upper hand here , One wrong word from you and Laura will die “ she yelled
My God !
“ Laura is not involved in this , it’s just you and me … I’m the one you want right ?”
“ Nick you’re starting to waste my time , you know I don’t have that much patience right ?”
“ Annie you’re sick “ Nick said angrily and I suddenly heard a gunshot fire .
I quickly held my head in fear as I wondered where the bullet had gone .
“ Wrong word Nick… wrong word , that was a warning shot , next one goes straight to her head “ She said
“ ok I’ll do whatever you say , whatever you want just don’t shoot “Nick said
“ Good “ she said
She clapped her hands and a maid came out with a box , she gave the box to Nick .
“ open it “ she said
Nick opened the box and saw a ring .
“ What is this ?” he asked
“ You’re going to ask me to marry you “ she said smiling
“ what the … no fucking way “ He said
“ You’re going to fucking propose to me or I’ll blow her brains off “ she yelled
Oh my God ! What kind of a sick person is this ?
“ Annie wait , I c-cant propose to you , I mean I don’t like you “ he said
“ You don’t need to like me Nick , my love is enough for the both of us “
Wow ! One love is enough for two people
How funny is this bitch ?
“ Listen –“
“ no you listen , I’ve watched you date tons of girls for years now and I’ve always watched from the corner , I was crazily obsessed with you but you would never look at me . There’s no going back now , There’s a camera there that’s going to record how you’ll propose to me , I want my fans to see it “ she said
Wow , this girl never fails to surprise me.
“ Annie I can’t do it , you want me to propose to you live . Hell no I can’t “ he said
What ? Does he want me to die ? So much for thinking he came to save me .
“ Mr Harlow you have to do this , there’s a freaking Gun in my head , I don’t wanna die “ I pleaded
“ Smart girl , I think you should listen to your girlfriend “ She said
“ She’s not my girlfriend “ Nick said
Finally !
“ I don’t care , just do what I told you to do “
“ I’m sorry I can’t , I can’t do it “
“ Wrong answer Nick , Harold do it “ she said
“ What ? No no no Harold don’t “ I said
“ You can’t do it , Annie listen up you- “
“ Harold I said do it “ She said again
Oh my God , Mr Harlow it’s just one damn proposal , I don’t wanna die .
I felt the gun pressed into my forehead .
Ok here we go , it’s my final goodbye . Tears were Falling down my eyes as I awaited my death , I’ll miss you Zoey and you too –
“ Ok I’ll do it , put the gun down “ Nick said
Whoa ! That was close , I burst into tears as I couldn’t control myself anymore , death seemed so near.
“ ok then Harold , drop the gun “ she said
Phew !
“Now can we proceed Nick ?” she asked and immediately I heard a loud sound behind me .
What happened ?
I looked behind me and saw Zoey holding a bat , she had knocked Harold down With it , she was now holding the gun , pointing it at Annie .
“ oh my God Zoey , you came ?” I asked with tears running down my face , then she pulled me into her embrace .
“ It’s ok Laura , I’m here now “
“ Guess who’s got the gun now bitch “ She said pointing the gun at Annie , I quickly moved to her side to allow her aim well .
“ And you are ?” Annie asked
“ Zoey Miller the girl who is going to Put a bullet in you if you don’t shut your mouth “ Zoey said
“ Well well well , Laura I guess I underestimated you a bit , I don’t know how you did it but you’re pretty good “ she said which made me scoffed
“ Girl I didn’t know you was a bitch I mean I literally had a crush on you in Destination II “ Zoey said
“ What took you so long Miss Miller ?” Nick asked
“ The security was tighter than I expected , I had to create a massive distraction “ she said
I wonder what these two had planned , who knew they could make a nice team .
“ I don’t care what you all think but Nick is mine and mine alone , I won’t share him with anyone “ Annie yelled and in the twinkle of an eye she brought out a gun and pointed it at me .
Oh no ! Not again.
“ Do something stupid and I’m pulling the trigger “ Zoey said
“ Awwwn You’re cute , too bad that gun is empty “ She said and immediately Zoey looked at me in panic .
“ ok Annie you have to surrender now , the cops have surrounded by this building “ Nick said
“ What ? You called the cops ? Now I’m definitely going to kill her “ She said pointing the gun at me properly
Oh dear …
“ Wow Mr Harlow , how nice … I done told you not to call the cops but you just had to , didn’t you ?” Zoey said
“ That’s not the point now Miss Miller , let’s focus on saving Miss Paley “ he said
Ok even if I die here at least I died seeing two beautiful actors …
“ Annie don’t do it , I’ll do whatever you want me to do “ Nick said
“ It’s too late now Nick , I don’t care if the cops are outside , I don’t have anything to loose , if I can’t have you … then you can’t have her too “ She said setting the gun
“ No I don’t want her , I swear I don’t “
“ I don’t care anymore “ she said placing her hand on the trigger
“ Don’t do this Annie “
“ Annie please you can’t do this “
I closed my eyes to welcome the bullet and in a flash I felt something push me back .
*Gunshot sound*
My mind was heavy as I heard the gunshot sound , I had just been shot . I placed my hands on my stomach but I felt no pain , there was no blood either .
What is happening ?
I felt a pressure on my shoulder and I looked up and saw Mr Harlow standing in front of me with blood on his body .
He had just been shot .
He collected the bullet for me …
