Autumns POV *FLASHBACK* I sat down in the cafe booth,surrounded by my friends,Elliot ,Tiff,Amber and Tom, We'd just been bowling and I was sure as hell hungry. "Hello,my name's Isabelle,I'll be your hostess for tonight, can I get you some drinks first of all?" A young brunette introduced herself,she had dark rings around her eyes,a withdrawn look planted firmly behind the facade she painted on,Her face a tinge of yellow and white making her hazel eyes shine in the light.She was Very skinny and looked terribly unhealthy ,like she hadn't eaten in weeks and she'd had no sleep either.I wondered what her story was. I offered her a kind smile which she returned."Hi Isabelle , Can we have a round of large cokes please?" My friends nodded,We always ordered coke so it wasn't a hard guess. "Sure I'll be right back" she smiled before it fell once she reached the counter. "Oh my god did you see the bags on that girl" amber commented. "Amber!" I looked at her shocked. "What?,it's true,girl needs to know how to use make up" I poked her "Don't make fun of her,you don't know her story,maybe she can't afford make up ,did you think of that?" She sighed "You're right I guess" Isabelle soon returned with our drinks ,her hands shaky as she laid them on the table."Are you ready for food order?" She asked politely I nodded.After all,I was starving."I'll have the Double Cheeseburger and fries with bacon and cheese but no salad please." My friends gave me a look. "What?,I'm hungry!" I shrugged as they laughed,making their own orders. Later after we'd eaten she returned with the bill,we split the bill and paid it and got up to leave.I hesitated looking at the girl. "Hey autumn you coming?'' ,Tom asked . "Uh I'll make my own way tonight,I'm meeting someone later" I lied,He nodded and shouted a quick bye before heading out. I headed toward the girl,Isabelle looked at me with a blank expression."Sorry do you mind helping me in the bathroom ,I knocked something over" I lied. ,She quickly told her male manager who looked suspicious and followed me into the toilets. She looked around"Sorry miss,I don't see a mess" I nodded ,Offering her my birthday money.It was £150,Not much but I new it was a big tip to give.Her eyes widened."I..I..can't accept that" she whispered. "I don't know what your story is but somehow I know this might help a little" I spoke with authority."and if you ever wanted to confide in me ,here's my number,address and email" I grabbed the napkin I had written on and gave it to her,writing the name autumn at the top. Tears slipped from her eyes."Thank you so much,you have no idea how much this means to me" ,Somehow I knew exactly what it meant to her,like I could feel her emotions swirling inside of me.I gave her a hug and settled her down quickly. "Now ,I would put the money in your bra if I were you, Because no one will notice it and you won't have to split it,I'm giving it directly to you.Maybe we could hang out some point next week?" She bit her lip "I'm off half a day on Thursday" I nodded"What time should I meet you at the park?" "3Pm" ,I nodded "see you then" I walked out of the door feeling a little brighter than I had before and started to walk home. *** (3 weeks later) Isabelle was doing well now,she and I had slowly become good friends ,she had told me how she had been caught up in her boyfriends gang and when she dumped him,They wanted money,For months she scraped by with 4 tin of beans a week,just to pay it off.Once she explained this,I donated the rest of the money to her from my savings,I was helping someone have a better life after all. Since then she had looked alot healthier, Her curls bounced around her shoulders and her skin was now a pale tan colour,her hazel eyes actually looking happy rather than souless.her figure was slowly becoming more full and I was grateful I had given someone a chance at life. "We're here" she gestured to the block of flats Infront of me. It was a small apartment with two bedrooms ,a little dark but it looked alot better than I had expected. She flopped down onto the sofa and I did the same."So this is your place huh?" I smiled "Mostly,my brother lives with me but that's about it" she shrugged. Just then a door creaked and a man stepped out from the room across the hall,Just in joggers,his chest of full display ,his eyes a tainted grey and his black shaggy hair falling to his neck.His eyes landed on me and frowned. "Oh sorry didn't realise you had company belle" "Put a t-shirt on will you" she groaned. he laughed but did as she said,pulling a t-shirt over his chest.My heart was beating erratically at the way he was looking at me.I had a bad feeling all of a sudden like something was warning me to stay away from him. He offered his hand "Hi I'm Regan,Reagan Williams,Isabelle's Hot brother" he smirked ,I shook his hand,Blushing deeply. "I'm autumn White" Isabelle looked between us rolling her eyes then let out a breath taking smile "She better be your mate Reagan" ,this made Reagan laugh. "Yeah we can be mates right?" He chuckled again ,asking me. I was confused. "Yeah?" It came out more of a question. "Good." His low Voice echoed in my ears as his eyes trailed over my body,licking his lips in the process. "How old are you?" "16,but I turn 17 in a couple months." I smiled and he frowned. "I'm 20 ,nearly 21." I gasped inwardly,I should not be having these feelings for a guy that's 4 years older than me!!!!! I nodded politely. *** (2 months later) "Stop Reagan we're going to get caught" I giggled softly as he kissed trails down my neck ,we were down an alley currently,I tried to leave but he pulled me back,taking my lips in his before pulling away. "Maybe I don't care" he teased,snaking his arm around my lower back,his hand resting on my ass. I sighed "Well I do" Before he could speak he was cut off. "WELL WELL WELL ,WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE" A voice boomed down the alley ,He froze in place,His eyes now filling with anger. He turned,placing me behind him. "What do you want Derek?" He said with confidence,Staring at the guy in a fighting position He knew this guy? The guy laughed "come now,let's not be hasty shall we,or your little girlfriend gets it." Reagan froze ,turning back to me "if I tell you to run,you run,do you hear me?" I nodded as fear filled my gut. 20mins later I was standing beside Reagan shell shocked.He had a gun in his hand,the guy who tried to attack us got shot by Reagan.He's dead.But that was self defence..right? "We need to leave baby" he looked at me as I said nothing,staring at the body infront of me horrified. "Autumn!" He shook me,I broke from my trance,starting to cry.he sighed. "We need to go,now!" And with that ,he dragged me away ,running and soon enough I ran with him. Once we reached the apartment I sat on the sofa,wallowing in tears,Isabelle came in and looked between us "what happened?,Reagan!,what happened!?" She said quickly,rushing to me and cuddling me. "He killed someone" I whispered. She rounded on him."you said it wouldn't let it happen again Reagan!,you told me it was over!" He looked beyond angry. Punching a wall beside her head. "Well now she knows too much."he said looking at me in distaste.she gasped."No...No we can't..Reagan...please..no.." she welled up with tears. Something inside me told me to run.Out of fear I stood up,warily backing away.my back was pressed to the door as my hand grasped around the door handle. Then he was Infront of me.He held a knife to my throat as Isabelle screamed behind him.tears streamed down my face,mascara making me look like I was in a horror movie. It sure felt like one. Isabelle took a vase and hit him around the head,smashing it.He looked a little dazed and I took this opportunity to get away from him and the knife,Heading towards the kitchen for something to use back. I picked up a clever warily.Holding it out Infront of me at him as he stalked nearer.Isabelle was nursing her own wounds,it had seemed he had pushed her to the floor in anger onto the broken vase,giving her a few cuts.She got up,Stalking towards him again.Thus time holding the gun he'd dropped. "Stop" she said shakily.The gun quivering in her hand. "Please" she pleaded as he carried on. "Reagan,Please" she choked out.I heard a click which made Reagan turn around,She had one final move,the trigger.Reagan looked at her murderously and She backed off slightly but still held the gun in her hands. "I'll shoot" she whispered. "No you wouldn't" he Said smugly. ,This made her pull back the trigger slightly and everything I saw from then,moved in slow motion.She pulled the trigger,I moved to one side as the bang sounded,Reagan,Moved quickly tackling her to the ground and missing the bullet,Then what he did next horrified me. "You shouldn't have done that" She looked at me and mouthed 'Run' ,I headed for the door quickly but something made me pause.I looked back to see him plunge a knife through her,He was stabbing her over and over again.Pain errupted inside me,And I ran,not looking back until I saw the police station Infront of me,I still had the clever in my hand and I was letting out strangled sobs as I entered. "HELP ME" I yelled as I entered and several police officers looked at me warily,eyeing the meat clever. "MA'AM PLEASE PUT THE WEAPON ON THE FLOOR AND YOUR HANDS ON YOUR HEAD" The cop leveled his gun at me,I did as he said and broke down crying as I put my hands on my head,He picked up the meat clever with gloved fingers and put it behind the desk. He dropped his gun and came towards me slowly. "Please help" I sobbed "he's going to kill me" "Who is Ma'am?" He looked at me softly. "Reagan,Reagan Williams" *** (1 month later) *news broadcast* 'The suspect in a murder trial ,Reagan Williams,Was arrested after evading the police for 2 weeks,The Suspect later pleaded Not guilty and was sentenced to 25 years in prison' The news sounded in my ears,Alex slung an arm over my shoulder."Hey it's all okay now" I nodded,There was no chance I'd ever see him again.It was finally over.
