LIAM POV: Matt entered the room. He was a good friend of mine and also our family doctor. 'Why are you so late?' I irritatedly said. 'I left my work and came to you on the first call.' He rolled his eyes. 'Leave that. Check her immediately.' I said worriedly and pointed toward Emma. 'Who is she?' Matt said shocked because he knows how I try my best to stay away from girls. What happened in the past still haunts me and I remembered all the details of that day vividly. I didn't know what to say. 'Someone I know.' He smiled knowingly and entered his doctor mode. He started doing examinations. He gave her some injections and dressed her knee wound. 'She had a panic attack?' Matt asked. 'I don't know.' I shrugged my shoulders. 'What happened to her?' He asked in curiosity. In return got a glare from me. 'I gave her medicines. She will be fine by tomorrow.' he told me and smiled mischievously. 'You can go now.' I told him off blankly. 'Awwww How can you say this to your friend, you stone-hearted boy.' he laughed. He patted me on the shoulder, packed his doctor's bag, and went out of the room. I went to her bedside. She was sleeping peacefully. I walked to my closet and took out my trouser and shirt to wear. I made my way towards the bathroom and took a shower because my clothes were dirty from the drink that was spilled on me in the club. After finishing my business I came out of the bathroom. Emma was sleeping calmly. I should tell her friends about her so that they won't take tension. I took Emma's phone but it was out of battery. I plugged her mobile phone to charge it and then turned towards Emma. A thought crossed my mind 'It will be uneasy for her to sleep in this dress.' I again went to my closet and took out my clean shirt. 'It will not be appropriate for me to change her.' I called downstairs and told them to send Amelia. She was a middle-aged woman who is working for our house for many years. She was like a mother figure to me. Soon she came into the room. I told her to change Emma's clothes and I went out of the room to give them privacy. I went to the guest room and turned on the light ' I guess, I have to sleep in the guest room today.' I muttered. I turned off the light and switched on the side table lamp. I laid down on the bed to sleep But my mind was wandering repeatedly to the innocent girl sleeping in my room. 'Shut up' I said to the thoughts about her that were not stopping in my mind. Suddenly my phone buzzed on the side table. I looked at the caller ID and found Benjamin was calling me. I pick up my phone, held it to my ear and said 'Hello' 'Where are you? I thought you died in bathroom.' he asked over blaring music in the back ground. 'I went home.' I shortly replied. 'Why? Is everything alright? He asked worriedly. 'Yeah Yeah, everything' s fine. Just wanted to go home.' I didn't tell them about Emma. ' Okay.' ' You guys enjoy.' I said and hung up. I looked up at the ceiling and thought' How those girls can do this to her?' After some time, I turned to my right side and tried to sleep. In the morning, I woke up to the sun's rays falling on my face. I always sleep in a dark room then why there is so much light today. I sat up and look around the room. Ohh, now I know because last night I slept in the guest room. I run a hand through my hair and got up from the bed. I stretched my body a little and left the room. I went to my room to see if Emma has woken up. I knocked on the door but no one answered. I opened the door quietly and went to her bedside. Emma sleeping soundly and peacefully. She was looking like an angel while sleeping. Some strands of her long hair were falling on her face. I removed them with caution to not wake her up. She was wearing my white shirt that went down her thigh. She turned in other direction in sleep and her whole creamy legs were on full display. My mind was going crazy from thoughts. How can this girl affect me so much? I don't even know her completely. I covered her legs with a bedsheet. I was in my thoughts when my phone buzzed in my pocket. I took it out and an unknown number was calling me. I went out of the room to take the call. I don't want to disturb Emma. 'Hello.' I answered the phone. . 'Yes, Liam's speaking.' . 'What? How can this happen? I asked shocked. . 'Okay, I am coming.' I hung up the phone. I didn't know this phone call was going to change my whole life. I hurriedly went to my room and packed a small bag. As I was going out of the house, Amelia met me at the door. She became worried to see me. 'Dad has an accident.' I told her. Her face paled. She asked about her condition. 'How is he?' 'He is in a critical situation. I have to go abroad now.' She hugged me and murmured 'Take care.' I sat in my car and drove away towards the airport. This phone call was going to change my whole life. . . . EMMA POV: I woke up to slight pain in my body. I tossed around in the bed to find more comfortable position. Something is wrong with my bed. There is not 'something' but all the things are wrong with my bed. Ohh, this is not my bed. I sat up with a jerk. 'Ouch, my knee.' I looked around and came across a big and totally unfamiliar room. Everything was of dark color in this room from furniture to even curtains. I got up from the bed and there was a soft grey colored plush carpet under my bare feet. My eyes move upward from my bare feet to my bare legs and then to a white shirt that I was wearing which no doubt belongs to a man. It has a familiar musky scent which I couldn't quite place. 'What the...! Where am I? Am I kidn*pped?' but the room is too good to keep a kidn*pped person. I muttered. Suddenly, I remembered the events of the last day and the person who came to my rescue last night. I think I am at his house. I looked around to find my belongings. I found my dress neatly folded on a chair across the bed also with my purse by its side. I searched my purse for mobile phone but it was not there. I looked around the room and saw my phone on the side table plugged with a charger. 'Thank God, my phone is charged.' I took my phone and turned it on. As soon as I turned it on, it bombarded me with a bunch of messages from Alyssa and Drake. They were so tensed and asking about my whereabouts. I messaged Alyssa that 'I am fine.' I hit the press button. It was not even five seconds of sending when my phone began ringing. The screen flashed Alyssa's name. 'Hello.' i calmly sat down on the bed and prepared myself for her non-stop questioning. And Alyssa proved me right. 'Don't you Hello me. Where are you? You know I was so scared when we didn't found you. Also, your number was going off.' she started questioning me at the bullet train speed. 'Calm down, Calm down. I will tell you all the details later.' I tried to comfort her. 'Okay, I'll be waiting' she replied. 'Bye.' I smiled and hung up the phone.
