Isla's POV:


*a week later*

I was laid in bed, struggling to sleep. Everyone has been acting weird for a few days and i'm overthinking that i did something wrong. I know they're just busy but my brain doesn't accept that. I need to sleep... so i got out of bed and took some sleeping pills. I didn't look as the dose or side effects, i'll be fine..




"Hey Tom!" I said excitedly on face time to him.

"hi. I'm busy Isla what do you want?" He asked, clearly not busy

"oh it's ok, i'll call you later then" I said kind of bummed but understood.

"don't. I'm busy all day" he said bluntly

"oh ok" I said ending the call, tears brimming my eyes

'what did you do. you ruined it. you're too clingy' my thoughts went on.. i need Niki

I found my phone, dialling Niki's number with shaky hands it was difficult.

"Niki" I said hyperventilating

"What Isla? what do you want??" she said angrily

"I.. i can't breathe.. he- help" I tried getting out

"All you want is for other people to help you. Learn to cope yourself and stop relying on others Isla. You're being so selfish" Niki said hanging up on me..


I shot awake, gripping my bedsheets to familiarising myself with my surroundings, breathing heavily

I found my phone calling Tom, It's 2am for him so i don't know if he'll answer

"hey Isla" He said groggily

"h-hi" I got out

"are you ok??" He asked sitting up quickly "Hey look at me, ok? you're safe. Whatever happened it's ok. Can you count to ten with me?"

"i-i'll try" I said 

"ok good"

So we did that, we counted to ten and i calmed down. His voice was calming

"so what happened? If you're comfortable with telling me" He asked

"It was just a nightmare" I said, shivering at thinking about it "I don't want to go into detail but it was awful Tom"

"It's ok, do you want to talk for a bit?" He asked

"I want to sleep, but i don't feel safe. Can you stay on call?" I asked awkwardly 

"Yeah sure, cameras on or off?" 

"on, if that's ok?" 

"yeah of course, goodnight Isla"

"goodnight Tom" I said smiling into a cushion


I woke up the next morning, Tom had hung up but sent me a message 

Toms <3

Hey, i'm gonna be offline all day as i'm doing stuff with mother and father innit, i hope you're doing ok now <33

I read that message smiling... he's so great

After reading that message.. too many times i decided to get up, I got changed into just a pair of jeans and a red cropped button shirt. I didn't have much planned so i decided to put on some netflix.

I looked over at my phone seeing 7 hours had passed and it was dark

'shit i should probably get food'

I turned netflix off and went downstairs into the kitchen, i started making food, that was until...





I heard a knock at the door, i wondered who it was at this time so i turned off the stove, so i didn't burn the house down. 

I opened the door....
