CRASH
Chapter 24
Scarlett's POV
I woke
up in a room I didn't recognize. I couldn't remember
anything. A man walked in that I assumed was the doctor since
he started checking me over. Everything seemed normal until
he grabbed my throat. "Remember me?" he said as he
took of the wig he had been wearing. I instantly did. I could
never forget his cold dark eyes. The eyes of the boy who had
tried to burn me alive. "How did you find me?" I
choked out. "Your little friend Jason? We met him jail.
Turns out he was hospitilized today, too. He found out your
room number. Guess what? He's right down the hall,"
he sneered at me. I couldn't breath. I was convinced I
was going to die here and now when a thought came into my
head. "Can we go see him?" I wheezed. He looked at
me skeptically, so I continued, "You can hold my wrists
or whatever the whole time. I won't run, I promise. After
that, you can do whatever you want to me." A smirk grew
on his hideous face as he let go of my neck but grabbed my
wrists and pulled my out of bed. He took my down the hall,
and I could tell he was avoiding the waiting room. Ryker
must be there. I coughed a little to clear my throat as
best I could. I was gonna need all my strength.
"Ryker!" I started screaming. "Ryker help
me!" My attacker put his hand over my mouth, but it was
too late. I could already hear Ryker's heavy footsteps
running toward us. Next thing I knew, I was on the ground and
there were no hands on me. Ryker had saved my life again. It
seemed like only seconds, but the police were there hauling
my asailant off before I could think about what just
happened. Ryker ran over to me, kneeling down next to me and
pulling me into his arms. The tears started streaming down my
face and I wrapped my arms around him and buried my head into
his shoulder. He gently rubbed my back as I calmed myself.
"This is the fourth time. I owe you my life, you've
saved me so many times. I need to learn to take care of
myself, I shouldn't always rely on you to save me,"
I said softly. "I will never stop saving your life. If
you're in trouble, I'm gonna drop everything to
help," he told me. I tooked into his eyes. They were a
sparkling silver and I couldn't resist. I leaned in and
kissed him. My savior.
