Trigger warning

Last Chapter

I all of a sudden got a text message and I opened it with hope, I looked at it and saw the contact name was.....

This chapter

Ross' POV

It was.... Max! "GUYS! I got a text from Max!" I screamed through the whole offices and they all ran to me, and I began reading out loud.

Dear.... Um everyone!
I was kidnapped by my high school friend Serra Lavender. She is keeping me captive in her basement, please help me.
She said she would only let me go if I break up with Ross and I will never do that. Get help from the police, she has some bad things on her and tell the police about her, they know where she lives.
That's all for now I can hear her coming.
Sincerly Max.

"Officer Marten! Come here, please!" Adam exclaimed and the middle aged man came up to us, "Yous have tos reads this!" Barney continued and I gave him my phone.

"We'll go tomorrow, she normally has therapy sessions at 3:45-5:15 PM so that gives us an hour and an halv to find him, sounds good?" "Yes, sir!" We all replied and got to making an update on Max.

"We'll find you, Max, I promise." I whispered out into the air and smiled hoping he heard me wherever he is out there.

Max's POV

Serra had just been walking in and out all day and was out and then I suddenly heard Ross' voice and he said, "We'll find you, Max, I promise."

I also saw all the others, and from the sounds of it, it was real, and I was watching it, asleep. Serra had obviously went in and out a couple more times but I hadn't awoken.

As the day went on I found out that they were coming to save me tomorrow and I was super excited, Serra had not once let go of my arms and they were super sore.

My legs were numb, I couldn't even feel them! I just knew that they were there! It felt super weird! I just hope they find me

I'm so hungry...

Next day

Still Max's POV

I was practically starving at this point, the day I got there, she had given me food, loads of it. But the last week or so she hadn't.

Luckily, Serra had put a big clock up on the wall so that I could see the time, the time is currently 3:00 PM. She's usually gone from 3:45-5:15 but she won't tell me why.

I continued to look in that 'dream' thing where I could see the guys and I overheard they were coming to rescue me today, though, I think I might be gone then.

Serra - as I've said before - has been starving me, the last three days she's also cut me, hit me, kicked me and unfortunately, kissed me.

I'm really out of it, arms sore, feet numb, starvation, cuts, bruises and probably a few broken bones, I'm sad to say that when they come, I'll probably already died.

Ross' POV

I can't fell myself, I'm numb of depression and hope. Although I know we'll be saving him today I just.... What if we come to late?

I cannot stop myself from thinking that when we get there that he'll already be dead, as much as I want to forget that thought I just can't!

I'm scared my Pumpkin will be dead, I'm scared he'll go into a coma..... I'm scared that I'll kill myself if he dies...

I can't bear this anymore...

Adam's POV

As we're getting ready to leave I see Ross' pale body running to the bathroom he and Max shares, I shrug it off and think he's just going to the toilet.

Though that was a wrong thought, after continuing to prepare for about two minutes I hear a bang and loud sobbing and I and the others immediately run to the bathroom.

When we reach and open the door Ross is on the floor in tears. His sleeves are rolled up and his forearms are full of brand new cuts, in his left hand there's a razer and there is blood everywhere.

I hear many gasps as I gasp aswell and we work together on cleaning up Ross. "Whys did yous do thats, Rots?" Barney asked and Ross shook his head.

"T-T-The v-voices.... t-they ke-kept t-telling me tha-that Max w-would a-already be d-d-d..... dead... w-when we f-f-found him..... I-I couldn't t-t-take it a-anymore!"

Ross cried, sobbed and shook rapidly, all of us were scared but Officer Marten told us we needed to leave so we did so.

Max's POV

Serra has just left and I feel drowsy, scared and slightly lifeless. The corners of my view is turning more and more blurry and black by the second, if this is how it feels to die then it really isn't that bad.

I try to keep myself awake, screaming and shouting. For what you may ask? For help, For food..... For Ross...

And as I continue to scream and shout my eye sight fades away and everything turns black.
