Riley POV

I'm not at the track where I once was. The room is different. It's all one color and spotless. I felt rocking. I'm not tied up which is a relief. I walked to the door. Locked. The windows. Locked. I looked out the window and saw blue and a speck of land afar. I'm on a boat. The land looks light years away. The process is starting all over again. Getting kidnapped and being far away from everyone.

"Do you like the view?"

"It's spectacular but I prefer to look at it from land."

"Hmph you're funny. At least Harry can't run over you here. How is our Harry doing anyways Riley?"

"I don't know. He was with someone else last."

"Really? And how does that make you feel?"

I gave him a weird look. "You're not my therapist here."

"No but I just want to catch up."

Jake got up and circled around me. Like a Voltaire getting ready to dive into it's prey.

"Seems like I left a pretty good mark on you." He tilted my head to the side showing off the burn on my neck.

"What are you going to do to me this time?"

"What do you mean?"

"You raped me last time we were together. What now?"

"Nothing. I'm doing nothing with you. If you try to escape I will hurt you though. You have the freedom to roam the ship so enjoy!"

He clapped his hands and left my room leaving the door open. I walked to the dresser and closet to find fresh clothes to wear but they were empty. I noticed an outfit sitting for me in the bathroom. It was nothing I was hoping for. Does he think I'm going to treat him to a good strip tease?

---

I walked out the stairs onto the patio where most of Jake's gang were, smoking, drinking and tanning.

"I'm glad we picked that outfit mates. Shows off your ass just right."

"Shut up Jake that's my cousin you're talking about!"

"Like you really give a shit about her Eric!" They all laughed to that comment, including Eric.

This just makes me uneasy. I got out of their site so I could be by myself and just look at the scenery. Is Harry really going to come back for me again? He made a pinky promise but is he going to break it because of Mindy? I do want him to save me. Jeez, I want anyone to save me.

Harry POV

"It's not my fault she ran away!"

"Yes it is Harry! If you hadn't gone off and stuck your dick in that nasty girls vagina everything would be okay. But no. You just had to do it!"

"Juliet calm down! Mindy put something in the drink.I couldn't control myself!"

"You know she won't be at the dirt tracks this time. It would be too easy to find her. So what do you suggest we do?"

"Wait "we" do?"

"Yeah Liam. We do."

"Hell no! You girls aren't tagging along and helping us! I know you all love Riley to death but I don't want you and the other girls getting into any dangerous situations. I don't want you to get hurt like Riley. I don't want to visit you in the hospital."

"But Liam."

"No buts Juliet!"

I've never heard Liam yell that loud to Juliet. I can tell by the look on her face that she is now scared of Liam. His face began to soften. He took a step towards Juliet but she stepped back. Liam tried to get closer and closer but Juliet proceeded to take steps away from him. Her back was pushed against the wall. Liam had her trapped.

"Juiet just listen to me. Please?"

"No. I. I have to clean my room."

She ran up the stairs and slammed her bedroom door shut.

"She'll come to terms Liam don't worry. You're doing the right thing. Eleanor will be safe."

"So will Perrie."

"And so will Riley."

The boys looked at me. Riley of course isn't safe right now but she will be soon.

"Harry we don't even know where she is. We have no leads."

"So what are we suppose to do Niall? Wait for another video of her being taken advantage!?"

Silence.

"I can't do that! We have to figure this out before my head explodes!" I had tears brimming my eyes. The boys noticed and hang their heads low. They would act this way too if it were their girls. Niall walked towards me. He hugged me. None of the guys have ever hugged me like this.

"Harry I don't how you feel but we are going to find her as soon as possible. She won't be hurt I promise you that."

"And how do you know that?"

"I don't know. But I know God will keep her safe."

"God?"

Niall release me and smiled at me.

"I've been praying too."

---

We've been going from place to place where Jake has worked at but nothing. No trace of him, his gang, or Riley. It's' been a week and I'm so anxious. It's been hard to sleep. I need to have her right next to me. I need her to be right by my side, where I can fall asleep to her essence, and our legs intwined.

Someone knocked on my door but I didn't bother getting up or saying for them to come in. I'm too sad and alone to do anything. "Fine mate. I'm storming in then." Zayn kicked the door down.

"What the hell Zayn!?"

"I know you're too upset to do anything but you needed a wake up call! I'm sure the noise made you more awake. Now, this came in for you."

He threw a letter at me.

To Harry from Jake.

At least this is a letter and not a video.

"Harry,
I am so surprised you haven't tried harder to find your little princess. Must be because this so called girl Mindy took Riley's place. Don't worry I haven't laid a hand on her so no need to be mad at me. If you even care about little Riley anymore. If you don't I'll keep her in good hands. I have a propitiation for you. But you have to find Riley and I first. Here's a hint for you first if you'd like Riley back.

It's not the waves you catch,How hard or how strong.
It's the wind in your hair
The oceans song.

Knowing you can't,
Almost certain you can.
Endless blue,
With a bare sight of land.

Getting to know the oceans,
Dolphins and fish your friends.
Too many mistakes,
That you need now not mend.

The loss of all worries,
The bad, the worst.
Nothing is practiced,
Nothing is rehearsed.

The surfer's only knowledge,
Of what's going on,
Is the coming of waves,
In the wake of the dawn.

One of Riley's favorite places to go. Have a nice day Harry."

I ran out of the room into the living rooming where all the guys are.

"The ocean it's the ocean! The poem talks about surfing and the waves. One of Riley's favorite places to go! They're on a boat somewhere we have to go mates!"

Juliet, Eleanor, and Perrie came into the room hearing all the excitement.

Perrie POV

"What's going on? You lads are hurting our ears. Zayn what's happening babe?"

"We know where she is! We have to leave as soon as possible. Listen Perrie I don't know how long I'll be away. It's like what happened last time. I need you to be safe here."

"All of you," Liam said.

"But Zayn you have to be careful because…"

"Perrie I really have to go!"

"I'm trying to tell you something!"

"Trust me I'll be as cautious as I can. I want to come back to you and I will."

"But Zayn last time you ended up in the hospital! I don't want that to happen again because…"

"Perrie we're in a hurry!"

"Zayn come on we're leaving!" Gosh Harry I need to tell him just let me have a minute with my boyfriend!

"Bye Perrie."

The boys ran out the door slamming the door behind them. I followed them out. The girls tried stopping me but that's not happening. Zayn needs more encouragement for this fucking war.

Zayn got in the car and was closing the door but I pulled it out. "Perrie what are you doing?"

"I don't want to lose you so be safe."

"I'll be safe now let go!"

"I'm pregnant. I don't want to go through this alone. So just be attentive."

His eyes didn't show any emotion. I couldn't tell if he was scared, happy, upset. His face didn't give me any sign of anything.

I closed the door for him and the boys were on their way. Some day this is.

I sat down on the sidewalk and starting heaving. I was heaving because I finally told him and because I don't know how he feels.

Juliet and Eleanor sat side by side of me. "You're pregnant?"

"When did you figure out?'

"You two are so nosey. And I'm a few weeks in."

"Are you going to keep the baby?"

"I want to have the baby El but, I don't know if I should keep it. I mean I don't think I would make the best mom. I mean look at me! You both know me and Zayn, Zayn is in a gang! Some spectacular parents we would make."

I sobbed in my hands and the girls tried soothing me by rubbing their hands on my back and squeezing my thighs.

"Perrie. Don't think badly about yourself. You are an amazing person. And you would make an amazing mother as well. Zayn protects you all the time and he would protect your little girl or boy. This can change a lot. It can change for the good or bad but I have a feeling it's going to be for the good."

"You really think that Juliet?"

"Plus you have us! Juliet, Riley, and I would be by your side. And the guys need to know how to handle kids so they can be on diaper duty! I always wanted to be an aunt I can't wait to meet the baby."

"You both really think that Zayn and I can do this?"

"We know." they said in unison.

"Why do you both talk in unison?" I laughed.

"You do it too!" they said simultaneously.

I wrapped my arms around them both and thanked them for being the greatest friends I have ever had.

"But don't get moody at us, get moody at the boys when your hormones star kicking in."

I laughed, "I'll try my best!"

Riley POV

"So what's the proposition Jake?"

"Is that any of your business?"

"Does it matter?"

"Fine. You're feisty. I like feisty girls."

I scoffed at him. I don't need crude comments. I'm here for information.

"Well I just want Harry to get beat up as badly as he beat me up in the alley. Well maybe kill him I'm not quite sure yet. If I do you will be here to see it. Or it may be the other way around."

"I'll just close my eyes."

"You're not scared that you may get hurt?"

I am scared. I just have to put on a poker face for Jake.

"Anyways. You didn't answer my question properly."

"Fine fine. Harry has to take me to his lair or whatever it is. He gets more money that anyone else there is on the streets. So many gangs have tried to get into there and steal as much as they could. No one has succeeded. No one has even gotten a penny! I want it. I want it all. If he doesn't give it to me, well. You'll get hurt."

Jake is stroking my cheeks. He thinks he has all the power in the world. Well Harry is the most powerful leader out there. He can find a loophole around this, I hope.

I started thinking about all the possible ways this could all end and I gulped. The images were gory. Hurting my head.

"Then he has to fled town if he actually hands over the money."

"He can beat you you know."

"What makes you think that little girl?"

"Well as I recollect he beat the living shit out of you and stole me from you. He can most definitely do it again."

"You sound so confident. What happens if he does win? Will he want you back? Or will he go running to Mindy?"

I turned around to stare out into the horizon, not wanting him to see the tears that would soon be escaping my eyes.

"Thought so."

I heard his footsteps getting softer and softer. I groaned in frustration. "At least this isn't as bad as last time right mom?" I started picking my nails. A bad habit it I did when I was younger. My parent's hated it but I just could never stop until they past. I wanted them to be proud of me so I tried my hardest to impress them since they have been gone.

I wonder how Harry and everyone will come get me or even if they want to rescue me. I am a complete mess. Who would want me in their life? I've been kidnapped, I work with a disabled kid, I don't drink or smoke which is a turnoff for some, my parent's died and there is so much more. No one has every been my friend except Juliet. Until I met Perrie, Eleanor, Ashley, and Elle. Why am I so antisocial. I just feel like I really don't belong.

People say suicide isn't the answer and that it is selfish. But I have no one who would really miss me. And I would be with my parent's. I miss them and I want to see their faces. So would suicide be the answer for me? Should I try and give it a shot? I just don't want to get in more situations like these. I mean, I'm probably going to die anyways here.

Notes

Comment what you think Riley will you do
