Luke's POV

Arriving at the hotel, Ashton and I had to help Malum up to their room; they could barely walk in a straight line and we couldn't expect them to rely on each other to get up into their room.

Getting in the lift, I let Calum lean on me as Michael leaned on Ashton as we waited for it to arrive at our floor. When it did, we carefully helped Malum walk towards their room, Ashton opening the door; we let them basically flop down on the bed provided for them.

"Why don't you go to our room whilst I help these 2?" Ashton suggested to me.

"Are you sure you don't want help with them?" I asked, feeling bad on just leaving him.

"I'm sure so go on." Ashton smiled as he handed me the key to the room.

"Ok." I mumbled and then walked down the hall to mine and Ashton's room for tonight. Apparently the hotel couldn't give us rooms next to each other so having them on the same floor was the best we could get, that seemed better than nothing.

Walking over to the bed, I opened my bag that Ashton had brought up earlier and took out my phone charger. I plugged the phone in and didn't have any intention in checking for messages until I noticed a text from my brother, Jack.

Going to my messages, I noticed the multitude that I actually had from my family and I grew concerned and confused with the latest ones asking if I was ok.

Opening Jack's messages, I read through them and all of them appeared to be along the lines of me calling him or one of our parents. However, one stood out for a mile and that one read 'Mr Bates is out so please tell me you're ok.'

Confusion hit me as well as fear, the thought of Mr Bates walking free sent panic straight through my body and I wasn't quite sure what to do about it. However, deciding I wanted to be with Ashton right now and that I also needed to tell him, I turned around to leave and go to Malum's room but I stopped in my tracks when I saw Mr Bates stood in front of the door.

"I've missed you, Luke." Mr Bates spoke and my mouth kind of fell open, both in horror and shock.

He started walking towards me and I backed up, not wanting him to be anywhere near me.

"You've been all I've thought about for 2 years, Luke." He said as he approached me further.

Shaking my head, I kept repeating 'No.' to him as he kept walking closer to me. "Please leave me alone." I already begged him.

"I came all this way for you, you can't deny me this now." He said as he cornered me. I was now trapped by the walls of the hotel room as Mr Bates approached, the fear still coursing through me. "I've been out 5 days and I've been watching you, do you know how hard it's been to not be able to get my hands on you?"

I suppose that was when I truly panicked, well panicked enough for me to try and get out of this situation in a more effective way.

"Help!" I shouted, "Someone help!" I tried bolting for the door but Mr Bates secured his arms around me so I was pulled against his body and trapped there. "Ash-" I tried to shout but my attempt was cut off by his hand sealing over my mouth.

"Shush Lukey, shush." Mr Bates spoke quietly into my ear, trying to stop my muffled screaming.

"Let me go!" I shouted from behind his hand but it was incoherent.

"Calm down, Lukey. I don't want Ashton to hear you." He said before laughing, knowing he was taunting me because Ashton wasn't helping me.

"Now, you're going to leave with me quietly and I won't hurt Ashton. Do you understand?" He asked and I nodded my head, not sure whether I should be worried about him hurting Ashton but not wanting to risk him hurting me since I'm the one here.

Mr Bates then started to move to towards the door but that was when I bit his hand, he immediately let go of me and yelped. Pulling myself away from him, I rushed towards the door and Mr Bates started to follow me.

"Luke, come back!" He shouted but I was already out of the door and rushing down the corridor to reach Malum's room.

Mr Bates raced after me and he managed to catch my arm and pull me backwards. The force of being pulled backwards and then Mr Bates running into me caused me to tumble backwards and I landed on the floor, Mr Bates soon following suit.

I landed on the floor with a loud thud, Mr Bates ended up landing on top of me.

"Someone help me!" I shouted, hoping to gain someone on the floors attention. "Ashton!" I then shouted but Mr Bates sealed a hand over my mouth again, trying to stop me from gaining attention. However, we both know he was too late when someone opened a door; and that someone just so happened to be Ashton.
