Chapter 12

    I gulp as I slowly turn around to look at my worst nightmare. Nicholas stands there staring right into my soul. His blue eyes are slightly dark and he's angry. I look down at his outfit and I'm grateful he has a shirt on. I take deep breaths as my heart beats against my chest rapidly. Nicholas has a gun and his finger is on the trigger.

My hand is still on the doorknob, as I decipher on whether to stand there like a coward or go for it. 

    Without even thinking about the consequences, I push the door wide and proceed to run out, but Nicholas shoots right at me. I scream on top of my voice and cower in fear.
