[Sierra's P.O.V.]
I was a little scared honestly but I tried not to show it.
"Now you can either come with me the easy way or the hard way," he said. I shuttered, recalling the first time I was kidnapped.
*FLASHBACK*
I screamed but they pulled me out of the fire exit.
"Who are you?" I tried to ask but it was muffled by their hand over my mouth. They were joined by two hooded figures who tied me up. I was thrown into the back of a truck that reeked of heavy drugs and bad air freshener. My mouth wasn't covered.
"Who the fuck are you people?" I asked. No one responded.
"Hello? Do not fucking ignore me!" I shouted.
"Figures...I get kidnapped by a psycho bitch who apparently can't fucking talk!" I shouted.
"Why didn't you drug her?" she asked someone.
"Sorry." they muttered. I was joined in the back seat. He put his hands on my face.
"Don't touch me you sick mother fucker!" I said. He punched me in the stomach and put something in my mouth. He rubbed my throat so I would swallow it and I passed out.
*END FLASHBACK*
I felt tears in my eyes. Why do bad things always happen to me? I know I sound very pathetic but I dont have the heart to feel any better about myself. No ones going to care enough to save me anyway. I dont mean anything to anyone so its time that I faced that. Well there is one person, Aiden, but thats it. Hed have Nick as a father and a lot of people from my family to raise him so hell be okay. I shouldnt be so...selfish. Aiden needs me. Even if no one else does. His expression softened and he was staring at me intently. He grumbled and stalked off. I didn't move and I pulled my knees to my chest. Why do I feel so insecure and worthless? I sighed and I saw a hand in front of my face. I could see his ring and guitar calloused hands. Nick. I looked up at him and he looked terrible. There was a sheen of sweat on his forehead and he looked pained. I pushed his hand away and lightly touched his forehead.
"Do you have a fever?" I asked.
"Probably," he sighed.
"Huh..." I muttered. He said something to me but I was too wrapped up in my own thoughts:
*FLASHBACK*
"I'm going on tour," he said. No biggie, right? We're engaged. I'm sure we can survive a few months apart.
"How long?" I asked, trying to be happy for him.
"All summer," he said. Ouch.
"Um, okay...well..." I stammered.
"I...think we should break off the engagement," he said.
"So you propose to me; only to suggest we break it off? What? Was it some sick joke?"
"Better yet, why?" I continued. A possible reason popped into my head.
"Do you not trust me?" I asked, struggling to keep my voice even.
"It's not that, it's just gonna be so hard to talk and communicate and I don't wanna hurt you," he said.
"There's more isn't there?" I asked.
"Yeah...I'm moving... And I have no choice..." he said.
"To?" I asked, feeling tears in my eyes.
"Dallas," he said quietly.
"So let me get this straight, you are going to be gone all summer and you're moving to Dallas?" I asked.
"Pretty much," he said.
"When's your last day?" I asked.
"Tomorrow," he said
"How long have you known you were leaving?" I asked.
"Since January," he said.
"So lemme guess, it just slipped your mind?" I asked.
"Uh...yeah..." he sighed.
"Guess that shows how much I mean to you," I said. I felt a raindrop hit my face as the tears started to fall.
"Why are you making this so hard?" he asked, his voice cracking.
"I'm not making it hard! How else am I supposed to take this?" I asked, more tears falling.
"I don't know..." he said.
"So that's it? You're leaving and there's nothing you can do?" I asked. He nodded and I shoved the ring in his palm and closed his hand over it.
"I'll see you tomorrow!" I called over my shoulder. I didn't even wait until I reached my room to let the sobs escape. I looked out the window and saw him standing there, staring at his palm, as the rain came crashing down on him. For some odd reason, I couldn't feel an inkling of compassion. Not now; not when I could feel my heart beginning to break and it was all his fault.
*END FLASHBACK*
