David’s P.O.V. (At the same time when Kyle was playing his match)

“Did you replace her?” I asked Rein anxiously while panting heavily. He shook his head furiously while catching his breath. He put his hands on either side of his waist. “We didn’t replace her. Where she has gone?” he told me while asking about Violet in a worried tone. I looked at him helplessly and saw others coming to us while running. I looked around at everyone, and the worry on their faces was enough to tell that no one found her. “Where can she go? We have searched almost the whole school, and other areas,” Matthew from the volleyball team yelled in panic. He was not in today’s match, and that is why he was with us searching for Violet. “Boys,” Axel yelled, pulling his phone from his pocket.

“What?” I asked him in confusion. “Check your phones. See if she has left any messages for anyone, and Matthew asks anyone there to check their phones too. It may be possible that she has called or messaged any of us during the match,” he instructed all of us, and everyone fished out their phones from their pockets. “Why will she message us if she is in any kind of problem? She will call or message Kyle or Ethan first,” Dean said in confusion while looking at his phone. “She is a scary cat, Dean. She will not see whom she has called or messaged if she is scared out of her wits,” Axel immediately replied to him. I completely agree with him on this matter. “No,” I don’t have any message from her,” Rein was first to tell. Almost everyone said the same thing. I was about to say the same thing when I accidentally opened the sent message box. I was in such a hurry that I hit the wrong icon. My eyes narrowed when I saw the top message. My heart skipped so many beats in a row that I felt I would get a heart attack.

“Guys,” I yelled and looked at them in horror. “What happened?” Rein asked me immediately. “S… so.. someone text her… f.. from my phone,” I stuttered hard while telling them what I saw in a panicked tone. Their eyes almost popped out of their sockets in horror. Without wasting a second, I started running towards the court, where they were playing their match right now. Violet was missing after our match. She was supposed to go back to the court where they were having their match fifteen minutes after our match. I got a call from Kyle when we were on our way to the court to watch their match. He told me that Violet didn’t reach there, and she wasn’t even picking up the call. All of us had been searching for her since then. I should have checked my phone earlier.

“Kyle,” I yelled his name while running towards him. He was standing with Mr. Stammers and a few other people. I stopped right in front of him. “What is it? Did you replace her?” he asked me immediately in a hurried tone. I was out of breath right now. I immediately held my phone up to him, trying to explain what had happened. “S… someone …….. messaged her,” I uttered while panting heavily. Kyle immediately took my phone from my hand and opened the message. “You want to say that someone used your phone to message her?” Mr. Stammers asked me in a panicked tone, and I immediately nodded. “I.. just saw the message,” I told him and gulped hard while looking at Kyle.

“Let’s go… she still must be there,” he said, and without wasting another second, we all started running out of the court. “That place is really creepy, David,” Rein whispered to me while running towards there beside me. I looked at him worriedly and increased my pace. Violet was scared of the creepy, and isolated places. I knew this, and that was why I was now sick worried for her. “She must have asked me before going to that place when she received that message. How can she be so stupid?” I muttered angrily while running. Kyle glanced at me, and I could tell that he had the same thought. “I am gonna kill her if anything…. Anything happens to her. How can she be so stupid?” Ethan muttered angrily.

I couldn’t say what I should think. I was also pissed at her. We were together for ten minutes after the match, and she should have asked me about the message. I didn’t know what she was thinking, believing a random message like this. If… If I had to talk with her, I could talk with her anywhere. I didn’t need a place like that to talk with someone, let alone Violet. Someone used my phone to make me the culprit here. All the worried lines on my forehead straightened up when I realized who that person could be. I was so stupid. I should have changed the password on my phone, but I didn’t. Now Violet was again the one who was paying for my stupidity. “Who the hell called her here?” Mr. Stammers almost roared in anger when we reached the old building. Mr. Smith, from the organizers, was also running with us here.

“Don’t worry, Kevin. This place is not in use, but the cameras are still working. I will personally investigate the whole matter. This is, after all, the matter of the reputation of my school,” Mr. Smith told Mr. Stammers, and I took a breath of relief. “There,” suddenly Matthew yelled and we all looked in the direction now he was running. My breath hitched when I saw that prick again having Violet in his embrace in bridal style. “Violet,” Ethan yelled at the top of his lungs in horror, and we all started running in their direction.

Augustus P.O.V. (Continued from the last chapter)

We pushed the door quite a few times, and suddenly it opened with an annoying rattling sound. “Wait… don’t push harder,” I stopped Hunter once again when he was about to push the door again. My heart was now pounding hard in fear. She should be alright, or I would be doomed to death. We slowly opened the door wide enough for us to enter. My breath got stuck in my throat when I saw her lying unconscious on the floor. “Violet,” I yelled her name in panic and immediately fell down near her on my knees. “O My… what have you done, Augustus,” Hunter yelled in panic behind me, but I didn’t pay attention to him. My heart was about to come out of my mouth at any time.

I immediately took her into my embrace and pressed her face hard against my chest. She was cold, and her breath was also shallow. I wanted to embrace her, but not like this. This was Her face was completely white, as if someone had drained her entire b***d supply. “Hurry up, we need to get her out now,” Hunter urged. I pulled her immediately into my embrace in bridal style, and stood up. She was so light that I barely felt her weight. We both ran out of the room, but I stopped in my tracks outside the room. Hunter also stopped and looked at me in confusion. “We can’t go out with her. We will be in great trouble,” I said to him in a panicked tone when I realized what it could bring to me if I was seen with her in this state. Hunter g*****d angrily and raised his fist, but resisted his anger when his gaze fell on Violet. “You stupid, moron… do you think that no one will come to know what happened here, huh? The whole school is under a strict security system. We are already in trouble. What more trouble can it possibly cause us now? We will be in more trouble if something happens to her because you were the last person getting out of this place after she came here,” he almost yelled at me while trembling hard in anger.

I gulped and looked around. My eyes widened in horror when I saw a camera installed in a corner. I was already doomed. I looked back at Violet in my embrace. “I am sorry, princess… I didn’t mean to put your life in danger… I must have stopped and taken you out on time,” I murmured an apology to her and then looked at Hunter. “Let’s go… I need to save her for my own sanity,” I said to him, and he scoffed angrily. We both started running out of the corridor. She must survive, or else I wouldn’t forgive myself for the rest of my life. “Just hold down a little longer, princess…just a little longer, please,” I almost pleaded to her internally while running out of the building. “Here they are,” Hunter suddenly yelled and I looked in the direction where he was running now.

“Violet,” Ethan yelled at the top of his lungs booming the whole area. I saw Kyle speeding up, and in no time, he was in front of me, stopping me in my tracks, and he almost snatched Violet from my embrace and held her tightly against his chest. “What happened to her?” he yelled when he saw him unconscious. “She… has been out cold for a long time in a locked room… she needs a doctor,” I panickedly replied. “How long?” his teacher demanded angrily. I gulped hard and looked at Hunter. He immediately shrugged his shoulders, and I looked back at their teacher. “I…. I think… more than 4…40 minutes,” I replied to him while stuttering hard in fear.

“You, a****le,” Ethan yelled and almost lunged at me when his teammates held him away from me. “We have to take her to the hospital first,” his teacher urged him again in a worried tone. “I will deal with you later,” Kyle threatened me in a cold tone, and we all started running towards the main building. “You guys… go back to the court and finish the match,” suddenly his teacher stopped all of us and instructed us. “No.. we are not going, Mr. Stammers. Nothing is more important than her,” Ethan immediately yelled, and everyone around him hummed while nodding their heads. “We… we have to finish the match,” Hunter said quietly to me.

“Try to understand, guys… I am taking her to the hospital, and you guys will come after finishing the game. This is also important for us. “The match is only on hold for a few minutes, and then they’ll declare them the winner if you guys don’t show up there in a few minutes,” he explained what would happen to our match. Realization hit me hard, and I felt like a pathetic a****le who messed up everything for almost everyone. I wanted to win my last match against them, but this kind of win was not what I was expecting. “But,” Ethan protested, but Kyle stopped him immediately. “I am going with her. Win this match and come back later. I will inform you as soon as we reach there,” Kyle said to him, almost commanding them like a captain.

Kyle looked back at me with hatred filling his eyes. “Win this match for her,” he said to Ethan again while throwing daggers at me through his eyes. “Let’s go,” he then looked back at Mr. Stammers and they started running again. Suddenly Ethan lunged at me again and held me by my neck. “She is like a sister to me, Graham…. If.. if something.. anything happens to her…. You are doomed to death,” Ethan threatened me in a very cold tone while looking straight into my eyes. The anger and hatred had made his eyes bloodshot. “I.. I am really sorry, Ethan. I left her there alone when I should have taken her out,” I apologized to him while lowering my eyes in guilt.

He pushed me so hard that I almost fell down, but Hunter grabbed me from behind, saving the fall. “Let’s go guys!” Ethan yelled, but I didn’t look up. Sia played a game with me, and now Violet was paying for her dirty game. I looked up when I saw someone standing in front of me. It was their football team captain. “She is with you in this, right?” he asked me in an accusing tone. I gulped again but nodded. “She asked you to lock her there?” he asked me in a low tone, but anger was now evident in his voice. “No… she just arranged that meeting. I …I… that was my fault. I didn’t see behind me if she was coming or not, and when I should have,” I immediately apologized to him while telling him the truth about the incident.

He scoffed and then racked his fingers through his hair. “Let’s go, David… we have to cheer for our team. They are already downed due to some a****le,” one of his friends said to him in a bitter tone while looking at me angrily. I knew that they wanted to kill me this time, but they were resisting themselves hard. “Let’s go… the coach is calling us,” Hunter told me in a pissed tone. “I … I should go with them,” I replied to him but he held me by my arm. “Don’t make things difficult for us more than they are already, Augustus,” he yelled at me angrily and I looked at him helplessly. “I don’t know what disciplinary action they will take on you for putting her life in danger like this. No one… no one will believe that you just left that place angrily, and that you didn’t know that the door was stuck behind you. Let’s finish this match first and wait for her to wake up if,” before he could finish what he was going to say, I glared hard at him, making him stop. He sighed and then shook his head.

“Let’s go… we also have to finish this match,” he spoke again. I clenched my fists tightly while closing my eyes. Her pale, almost lifeless face came in front of me, making me scared once again for her life. I didn’t mean to put her life in danger, yet I couldn’t deny that it was my fault. About the match, I knew that I had lost that match already because there was no way that Ethan Parker would let me win that match. I almost dragged my body towards the court with Hunter. All I wanted right now was to run to her and ask her to forgive me. “What the hell have you done, Augustus?” my coach almost roared at me as soon as I reached the court, and I just kept my head low. “You… you,” he spoke angrily but sighed aloud.

“Finish this match, and let me see what I can do here,” he instructed us and I just nodded without looking at him. When I saw Sia laughing with other girls, I turned around and almost dug my nails into my palm. Now I understood why she chose that place. She was sure that I would do something out of rage, that would put her life in danger. She knew everything about her and played her cards well with me. I gritted my teeth while running toward the playing area while glaring at her. She would pay for what he did to her, and I would make sure that she would not escape from this. She looked at me and smirked, which raised my anger inside my chest. She knew all this time, but still, she didn’t help her. I underestimated this girl, but it didn’t matter now. I scoffed and a nasty smirk appeared on my lips. She raised her brows but I moved my gaze from her to the team in front of me now. All the boys from their team were now shooting daggers at me through their eyes. I was so doomed.
