Veronica's POV
I woke up screaming. Not because of Jacob. I had a bad dream involving my parents and cousin. I felt them all over me. My aunt and Jacob ran into my room. I started shaking.
"What do we do Kim?!"
"I-I have to go make a few phone calls."
Jacob ran over to me. He started holding me. I burrowed my face into his chest and started crying. I was holding his shirt so tight I swore I was gonna rip it. He started singing something.
That's his song!
The one I heard on the radio!
When he was done I looked up at him. He looked down at me.
"P-please don't let them get me."
He moved my hair out of my face.
"Nobody's gonna get you. Okay? Does your dad really have a gun?"
"Sadly."
He wiped my tears away then kissed my forehead.
"It'll be okay."
"They're gonna kill me!"
"No. No they won't. My friends and I have your back."
I heard a car horn so I got up and looked out the window. I saw a car I unfortunately knew. I shut the blind and curtains. I shut the door and locked it. I ran into the closet.
"What's wrong?"
"I-I think they're outside!"
Jacob walked into the closet and shut the door. We sat on the floor.
"are you sure it's them?"
"i'm terrified to know if it is."
"Where is she?!"
I covered my mouth with my hands.
Fuck!
That's dad!
"Gerald she isn't here. I don't know where she must've went."
I saw Jacob take his phone out of his pocket. He started calling someone.
"aunt christy? i need help."
He explained to his aunt what was going on.
"we're in her room hiding in the closet. see you in five."
He put his phone back in his pocket. Jacob held his arms out.
"come here."
I went over to him and he started hugging me.
"Kimberly where is she?"
"I don't know!"
Jake started rubbing my back.
"you're okay."
"VERIONICA!"
I started shaking.
No no no!
That's mom!
I heard sirens and started to relax a bit. I heard footsteps getting closer and started to panic again. There was a knock on the door.
"Jacob? It's Christy."
He got up and went to the door. He opened it and I held my breath.
"We good?"
"We're good."
"You can come out now V."
I walked over to the door. I saw a tall woman with blond hair.
