Lance�s Point of View
I stood up, looking at Sara�s sleeping form, and sighed deeply. It was too bad. I almost had feelings for her. But, oh well. A guy�s gotta do what a guy�s gotta do, I guess.
I silently crossed the room in one swift motion and pulled open the door, then soundlessly closed it. I hurried down the silent hall and pushed open the side door leading outside. Pulling my jacket closer to my body, I walked out into the darkness.
�I�ve been waiting for you.� A cold voice said.
I turned around to see Josh standing there.
�Hey, man.� I said.
�Did it go as planned?� He asked.
�Yeah.� I replied, sighing deeply. �I proposed, and she said yes. But Josh...�
�What?�
�I�m having second thoughts about this. When I told Sara that I loved her, I-I really meant it. She means the world to me. And... I don�t think I can lie like this anymore. I love her too much.�
A sharp blow to the head made me gasp. I tasted blood, and my nose felt strange. �You WILL cooperate, Lance.� Josh ordered. �You WILL go through with this plan.� He pushed me to the ground and kicked me. �Don�t make me do anything I�ll regret.� He added. �We�ll talk tomorrow.�
I lay there on the cold ground, listening to the steady sound of his fading footsteps.
I was suddenly scared, so scared. I didn�t want to hurt Sara. She was amazing, and I loved her. I was complete with her.
I wearily climbed to my feet and stumbled back into the warm hotel. I walked back to the room, and entered it, leaving the door open.
�Sara, wake up!� I said.
�Lance? Wha-what�s wrong?� She asked groggily, sitting up in bed.
�Sara, we need to pack. Now.�
�What? Where are we going?�
�It�s Josh. I�ll-I�ll explain it all to you in the car.�
Sara stared at me, her eyes wide. �Where are we going?�
�I have no idea, but we�re getting the hell away from Josh while we still can.�
Precious�s Point of View
I knocked softly on Amanda�s door. She pulled it open right away, and I could tell that she had been crying. �Precious? What-�
I entered the room, putting a finger to my lips, and shut the door behind me, locking it securely.
�Amanda, Josh has gone insane.�
�What? He already is insane!� She replied.
�No, I mean really insane. Like, insane enough to kill somebody. So hurry up, pack quickly. I already have.� I informed her, holding up my bags. �Josh left, but he could be back at any second. And we need to be gone by then.�
Amanda finished gathering her things and followed me out the door. �Lance? Sara? What are you guys doing here?� I asked the two, who were waiting for the elevator. Their bags were also packed.
�We�re leaving. Josh is crazy. I take it you�ve found that out?�
I nodded. �We�re leaving too.�
�You can come with us, then.� Lance said.
Amanda and I nodded in agreement and followed them onto the elevator. This was going to be one long night.
Josh�s Point of View
Where the hell was everybody?! I tore through my hotel room in a rage.
Amanda, Sara, and Lance�s things were all gone, as were Precious�s. Then I found a note.
Josh,
I�m leaving. I have had enough of you and your sick mind. Don�t look for me because I will be going someplace far, far away from you. But even though you�ve hurt me, I still love you and I always will.
~Precious~
I screamed in frustration and stomped out of the hotel room. I then entered Justin�s, where he and Vanessa were watching television.
�EVERYBODY LEFT!� I screamed like a madman. �MY PLAN IS RUINED!�
Justin stood up and walked over to me slowly.
�Josh, it�s ok. Why don�t you calm down and we�ll talk about it.� He told me.
�No.�
�Josh-�
�NO.
�Josh, I-�
�NO!� I grabbed a knife that was in their mini kitchen. �We are not talking about it.�
�Josh, please put the knife down.� Justin said cautiously. �We don�t have to talk about it. Just please put the knife down.�
�Shut up, Justin.� I snarled.
�Please, Josh.� Vanessa begged. �Listen to Justin.�
�You really shouldn�t try to tell me what to do.� I warned them.
�Josh...� Justin mumbled. �What are you-�
Holding the sharp knife high above my head, I advanced upon them.
