Ally's POV

I panted as I rounded another corner of my high school, tears streaming down my face. I was desperately trying to reach an exit or find a room to hide in. But every door I tried was locked. I desperately fought the urge to pass out from lack of breath. I had been running for what felt like hours.

I was running from my completely demonic ex-boyfriend, Sean. He didn't used to be the way he is now. He used to be sweetest guy I knew. Then, I found out that he was cheating on me. And to think, I thought that he had loved me, and that I loved him. Hell, I'm pretty sure that I did love him. I ronically enough, I found out that he was cheating on me on Valentine's Day, when I caught him literally sucking face with another girl! A popular girl! That asshole! That Stupid Asshole!

When I found out, I thought for sure that I was gonna' die. At the very least , I was gonna' pass out. Then he saw me, the look on his face was indiscribable. One thing I knew was that it most definetly was not one of undying love! And then when I confronted him about his horrible actions he had the nerve ( the Nerve!) to deny it. He said that she came on to him! That was so not what I saw, and I told him that, too. Then he called me an insane bitch, who secretly loves to be hurt! Needless to say, thatwas the last straw, and I broke up with him right then and there.

Let's just say that Sean didn't take it very well. He screamed at me, and cussed at me, and when I turned to walk away from him, he grabbed me and backhanded me accross my face so hard that I fell to the ground and almost literally saw stars!

Sean walked away then, swearing that he would make me regret it till' my dying day. For some reason, I believed him.

I snapped back to reality, my breath catching in my throat as I heard his voice calling out to me." I'm coming for you, Ally! You and I both know that you can't run forever! And you can't hide from me either. And when I catch you I'll make you wish that you were never born! Hell, I would say that you would wish that you were dead,... but when I get done having my fun with you, You will be dead!" he cackled maliciously. But I didn't stay to hear more. I took off, faster than ever before, not even bothering to check each door to see if they were unlocked.

Again, I ran for what certainly felt like hours, but what was probably really only about fifteen minutes. Finally I knew that I could run no more, and as I collapsed to my knees, I saw Sean come strolling around the corner, barely even breathing hard, already smirking evilly.

I whimpered as he hauled me to my feet by the collar of my blue polo shirt. He slammed me up against the wall, pinning my arms above my head with one hand. Man was he strong! I put up as much of a fight as I could, but my efforts were futile. It was no use. I was weak, and for that I. WAS GOING .TO. DIE!

Desperate times call for desperate actions, I thought as I started begging, "Please let me go,please I'm sorry! Please, please, please let me go. Please don't hurt me. I'm begging you!PLEASE!" the last part ended with me shrieking as he reached for my jeans. As he unbuttoned them, I started screaming!

" SHUT UP, BITCH! You're gonna' get just what you deserve! You shouldn't have broken up with me!" With that, he unzipped my jeans, which fell to my ankles. As he started to unbutton his pants, I started screaming louder than ever! Then I heard someone yelling my name and then I felt wet all over-

My eyes snapped open, and I sighed in relief as I realized that it had only been a dream. Then, I worked on calming myself down. I was shaking all over!

" Ally, Ally it's okay, I'm here for you. It was just a dream; nobody is going to hurt you, I promise," my best friend Taylor said.

I nodded, still gasping for air. I really felt as though I had actually been running all night, even though it had only been a dream.

" I'm okay, I'm okay," I managed to croak out, levering myself up on my elbow. Only then did I realize just how wet that I was! I glared at Taylor, and sat up fully, pulling at my tee shirt, which was adhering to my skin.

" What did you spill on me? It's sticky!" I yelled, hurling my pillow at her head, and only just missing as it fell to the floor right beside her.

Taylor winced and said in a small voice,"Rasberry lemonade." She started backing away slowly, knowing what was coming, and not liking it one bit.

I calmly slid off my bed, and grabbed my pillow off of the floor. Then, I stood up and advanced slowly on Taylor. Taylor started laughing at me. "Now Ally, let's not cry over spilled milk- no I meant spilled rasberry lemonade!"

" You just made a big mistake," I said, trying to sound as threatening as possible, still advancing towards her.

" Now come on Ally, you know better than anyone, that I could totally beat your ass! But I don't want to so please don't make me!" Taylor said the last part quickly, when she saw the look on my face.

Taylor's POV

The look on Ally's face was not one of anger as one might imagine, but rather, it was a look of fear. Now, you might be wondering why that is so. That is because, three months ago Ally had been tortured and raped by her ex-boyfriend, Sean. She would never tell me all the details, nor would she tell me why he did what he did. She didn't even press any charges against him!

I had found Ally bleeding to death at the high school, after Ally had managed to dial my number on her cell phone. All she managed to say was that Sean had been there and that he had raped her and then he had stabbed her and left her for dead.

When I arrived at the school, Ally wasn't even concious, so I called 911! After she had been taken to the emergency room, the doctors told me that she was lucky to be alive! They had found multiple stab wounds and deep scarring cuts all over her body! They had concluded that Sean had tortured her and then he had finally stabbed her in multiple places in an attempt to kill her, and thinking that she was dead, he had then left.

In the six months that had passed since the attack, Ally had gone through a lot of change. She cut her once long golden blond hair really short, and started cutting herself ( which I have repeatedly tried to put a stop to I might add). She became fearful, quiet, and reserved. I hardly ever saw her smile or laugh. Her beautiful emerald green eyes didn't sparkle with happiness and mischief. No, they were now dim and almost lifeless.

But, the worst thing of all that happened was that her parents and her older sister, Lea,were killed in a horrible plane crash! They had been coming home from a vacation, when the engine faltered, sending them plummeting to their deaths. Ally hadn't gone on vacation, but had stayed with me instead, which she had prefered. When she got the news, she was absolutely devestated. For a while she wouln't even eat or older brother Steven had come home to take care of her and manage the house. I just didn't know what to do.

Over the past three months though, Ally had started to change again. For the better. She started eating and talking again. She even started laughing and smiling again! But she still hadn't regained her self-confidence, nor had that ever present look of fear ever left her eyes.

But, I was going to change that if it was the last thing she ever did! Starting with the Big Time Rush concert that was today! Wish me luck! Cause' I'm certainly gonna' need it!
