Chapter 13: Runner

Jack POV

I run forward towards Y/N and scoop her up into my arms, she was coughing quietly and I could tell that she was in extreme pain because she wasn't talking. I began to run out of the basement as fast as I could with the rest of the boys trailing behind me. Zach leans forward and grabs the door and pulls it open for me and we then proceeded to run out into the foyer of the mansion. I turn the corner and stand still, noticing the heavily armed group of police stood at the door, 2 were handcuffing David, but the others had their guns pointing at us.
"Please, don't shoot us, we're her friends, she's dying, please just let us take her to the hospital" Daniel pleaded.
The police still had their guns pointed at us, we all had one pointing at us each.
"Do you have any proof of being their adopters?" The police questions. I look around to see if Officer Davies was in the group, but he wasn't. These police were unaware that we had adopted her beforehand.
"Not on us, no.." I say quietly.
"Hand over the girl"
"Wait.. what? No!" We had only just found her, now they want to take Y/N away from us, there is no chance we are letting her go now.
"Hand her over or you'll be going to prison with this guy" the police officer says leaning their head towards David.

I had no choice, I had to give her in. I walked towards the policeman with no guns in their hands and passed Y/N over, gently resting her in his arms then kissing her forehead. "Stay safe Y/N" I said to her, despite not knowing if she could hear us or not. As I walked back over to the boys, they look at me in disbelief, but we didn't exchange any words. The group of police then proceeded to walk out of the door with David following behind in cuffs, they then escorted him into the back of a police car and the policeman that had Y/N went into a separate car. I found it hard to believe that she was going to be safe with the police after we let her go on her own to her uncles, and look where that ended up. If they let her die, I'll never be able to forgive myself.

"We came all this way, for the police to take her. The point of coming here is that we could make sure that she was safe, and if she wasn't then we could take her home, now look at what's happened." Zach said with a frustrated undertone. I didn't bother to defend myself because I knew that it would just make him feel worse, and I didn't want that.

Y/Ns POV

I woke up in the back of a police car driving across a highway, what happened to me? I was in excruciating pain, so bad that I couldn't even move a single limb. I'm surprised I'm not dead yet, I could see the blood coming out of the gashes in my arms, the police had to place me on top of a towel to stop it from getting over the car. Frankly, I'm surprised they didn't send an ambulance for me just in case. I recognise these roads, we are going to the hospital I think.. I hope. I just wanted to go home, I miss the days where I would laugh until I cried because of Corbyns hyper behaviour, I miss the days where I would talk to Jack and Zach for hours on end about the craziest of topics, I miss the days when Daniel serenaded me with his guitar and I missed the days when Jonah would wake me up with the biggest of hugs. This wasn't how I imagined my life to be, I don't want it to be like this. It needs to be fixed, because I can't live the rest of my life in agony. Because we were in a police car, we could over take the other cars, there was a sudden jolt on a sharp corner that caused me to move up my chair and hit my head on the door violently. I had been knocked out yet again.

Corbyns POV

We were stood in the mansion foyer still, watching the police car with Y/N in the back drive away quickly. My phone rung in my pocket, so I picked it up.
"Hello?" I said with a sigh at the end.
"What happened??" our manager asked, obviously upset about our behaviour.
"You don't understand! Y/N was about to be ki...."
"I'm sick and tired of this whole Y/N crap Corbyn. You're letting it get to your head. If you really need someone to talk to then talk to Aspen, she's on tour for gods sake."
"So you're telling me that you want Y/N to die"
"No Corbyn, I'm not telling you that, I'm telling you that she is nothing but a distraction and in one way or another, she is going to jeopardise your career, possibly end it. Just recall what you did earlier Corbyn, you all ran off of the stage and cancelled the show, paying fans are demanding refunds because they didn't get to meet you after the show, and because the show didn't even get a chance to finish!"
"This is my personal life we are talking about.." I snap.
"Where is she now?"
"We think that she is going to the hospital, we found her on the brink of death so if we didn't run off of stage, it would be classed as murder because we are the adopters of her, and we let her die. So in one way or another, we would be in a difficult situation, her dying would've been the bigger situation"
"The bus is leaving soon, so you better be here and leave her behind, or you don't come and you lose all of the money you would've earned from this tour, you can give up the chance to grow bigger if you really want to."
"L..let us think about what we want to do"
"I expect a call back" he said before hanging up the phone suddenly.

I look up at the boys, trying to stop myself from breaking down in anger or sadness. After a large sigh, I ask.

"So what are we gonna do, leave her and carry on with tour or get dropped from our record label?"
