The Safe House

11 - Home

A/N:

Look at this! We meet again.

I'm SO SO SOORY i havent updated. I have had major writers block. I also moved house and lost my storyboard. so I had to re-write it. -.- annoying.

ANYWAY I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY OH MY GOD! I have reached over 400 reads despite my lack of updating! YAY

AANNNDDD the holidays are cominggggg so I promise there will most likely be more updates. You are in for a bump ride to the end of the rollercoaster.

NOW. I'm re-writing this. So, if you get confused, its because i have reread somethings and things are coming back to me and... its just confusning. I also added a bit of a surprise in this chapter which I had DEFINITELY planned. Psh, of course i planned it.... So I have to change somethings in the other chapters because I personally think it makes the story more interesting....

When i change to a different persons point of view thingy, i usually write * _____ p.o.v *. now it is just their name in bold. Just, so for all you people that dont pick it up, thats what it is. :) ANYWAY! On with the very overdue part:

Home…

Ivy, you’re coming home…

“W-what?”

“We’re taking you home. Oh, darling. We’ve been so worried about you!” The sarcasm was dripping from her voice; yet the man didn’t seem to notice.

“I don’t want to go, though.” I knew I didn’t want to go home. Heck, I didn’t want to be anywhere near my family.

“Yes, you do darling.” She said, glaring when the man wasn’t looking.

“Oh, home! I thought you said dome. I was a bit confused because I hadn’t been there in a while and surely-,”

“Ha-ha, oh Ivy, silly girl. C’mon. Lets get you dressed!” I rise up and out of the bed, hesitantly at first, afraid of the alarm. But when the man assured me that they turned it off, I left the bed. “Here, I brought you clothes.” She pulls out jeans and a shirt and hands them to me. “The lady at the front desk said she had your shoes and all that other stuff.” She waves at me to go into the bathroom. “Go! I’ll be waiting out here.” I smile a closed mouth smile and hurry off to the bathroom.

I rolled over, my arm throbbing with pain. My head ached so much I swear I could see stars. I push myself up off the ground and look around. The other three must have left me here, probably thinking I was dead, or that I would die.

The bullet had missed me when I jumped out of the way, but I didn’t realize the play equipment was so close and before I knew it, I blacked out. Struggling, I finally stand up and take in my surroundings. It was still dark, which means it must be just past midnight.

Where is Ivy? She couldn’t just runaway and then disappear. She would go somewhere and tell me. I think.

I start to walk around, getting the feeling back into my legs, thinking about my next move. I could go to Ivy’s house and ask again? But then I would probably get beat up by her mum. Rubbing my arm, I start to walk towards the road and start to head back to the Safe House. Hopefully, Ivy will be back and acting like she just went to the shops to get some milk and all these stories were rumors.

But how could they, when Matt was telling me the same things?

I change my mind and walk back towards her house.
