Fawns In Thorns

Sweet Like Sugar, Sticky Like Honey

"Yoongi.." I choke out as I put the phone to my ear.

"Lucy?" Yoongi answers sleepily, I must have woke him.

"I-I need you, please-" I sob, sitting up and hugging my knees.

"Lucy?" He says again more worried. "What's wrong? Where are you? What's happened? Are you okay?"

"I'm- I am at home, please come here." I cry louder as I look to the door. "He's going to come and get me."

"Shit, hold on." He growls, I hear a door slam.

"What's the matter?" I hear Namjoon.

"It's Lucy, she's in trouble."

"Well, aren't you going to tell Hoseok or Jungkook?"

"She called me!" Yoongi suddenly snaps. "Get lost if you're not going to help me!"

"Fine, I'll go get the car." Namjoon mumbles.

"Lucy?" Yoongi's voice turns soft. "Are you there?"

"Hm." I whine, shuffling away from the door.

"Who is trying to get you?" Yoongi asks cautiously. "Who are they?"

"My father," I crawl to the sofa and curl up in a ball in the corner. "He-he is going to get me."

"Your dad?" He asks, he seems like he's running. "Why would your dad get you?"

"He-he's going to hurt me." My sobs become painful as my throats turns hoarse. "He's got my mother and he's coming for me, and when he does he's going to beat me..or kill me."

"Where are you in the house?" Another door slams. "Have you locked the door?"

"What-"

"Shut up, Namjoon and start driving already!"

"I-I am on the sofa." I forget his second question. "Are you coming?"

"Yes, we'll be there soon, honey." Yoongi says gently. "Are you okay?"

"..no," I whisper. "I'm scared, Yoongi, I'm really scared. Please, come quickly."

"We're going as fast as we-Namjoon, faster-can," Yoongi snaps at Namjoon. "Namjoon, for crying out loud! Put your foot on it!"

"We'll die before we get there if we go any faster." I hear Namjoon grumble.

"P-please hurry."

"I'll be there soon, honey."

"I'm scared."

"Honey, I know."

"He's going to get me."

"No, not on my watch."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I have never been more sure."

"He will get me eventually."

"I will never let him hurt you."

"He's got my mother."

"We'll get her back."

"How can you be sure?"

"I promise to keep you safe."
