Captured

Liam’s P.O.V
I haven’t seen Sam or her bandmates in ages today. It was strange normally they are already for show time a few hours early. We have six hours till show time and I can’t find anyone. I find Lou in the green room cleaning up the green room. I couldn’t help but notice all the broken glass and blood.

“Lou is that your blood or is that someone else? Are you ok? Who is hurt?” I shot off the questions so fast that Louis had to tell me to shut up and breath.

“The blood isn’t mine. I am ok and well don’t tell Niall but it’s Sam who is hurt. I don’t know what happened at all. The only thing I know is someone came out of here and I found her.”

“You mean to tell me that someone injured Sam intentionally. She is sweet to everyone, who would want to hurt her?”

“Yeah. I know mate it’s hard to believe, and as for who I have no clue. She is with the medical staff right now. Niall doesn’t know and neither does the rest of the lads, please don’t tell them.”

I nod my head in agreement, they will find out soon enough though. I find Sam with the medical staff just like Lou said she would be her band mates are there as well. When I get there I am shocked by what I see. Sam has huge gashes on one of her arms, side, forehead, which I assumed were from the broken glass. She had so many cuts that the room seemed to have little blood compared to the wounds.
She and her mates are talking in hushed tones when I walk closer to her. I hear a few words that don’t make any sense, like double agent, working for the other side, missions, things that are normally not said in our line of work. They don’t notice that I’m there right away. I clear my throat letting them know I was there.

“How are you doing or rather how bad is it?” I hesitate to ask from the looks of her arms and side it was pretty bad.

“Doing alright just a bit scratched up nothing too bad.”

She says something in a foreign language then Rachel and Kate walk away. Since when did she speak a different language? Last time I checked none of them them spoke a different language. Then again I never did ask.

Sam’s P.O.V

I wake up with the security team and some medics people from the medical staff in a room I don’t know. Fucking lovely I don’t know where in the freakin arena I am. My head hurts like hell, so does my left side and arm. That’s right I got a freakin pistol whipped across the head and stabbed, and thrown on a glass table. I sit up slowly taking check of what still hurts what might be broken, and how much damage there really is. Ok not as much as I thought for how much I got tossed around. The medics have finally realized I was awake, took them long enough.

“Hey Sam I’m from the school your boss told me to stick close and to make sure you and your friends don’t end up in the hospital. If you need any medical help just let me know.”

My first thought after double checking the guys credentials, was how I was going to hide the cuts from Niall with making everything appear to be normal, meaning me in short sleeves and nothing to cover my arms. When I found my only answer to what I was thinking was makeup I groaned knowing that I would be needing Kate or Rachel to get me some since I don’t have any of my own. I hate make up and they always hounded me for not wearing any or having any. They were going to give me a hard time for this. Reluctantly I pulled out my phone which survived the fight nicely, and I called Rachel.

“Hello?” she answered on the first ring

“Hey Rachel don’t get too excited by I need you to get me some concealer and makeup don’t ask why just do it please.” I hang up before I get a response knowing that she would get what I needed.

Couple minutes later Rachel calls asking where in the arena I am and I figured we were by where the buses were. So it doesn’t take long for Rachel to reach me, and of course Kate is with her.

“Are you really going to wear makeup tonight!? Since when do you wear makeup?”

“Hush Kate! It’s to conceal the cuts from Niall and the rest of the lads that don’t know I got knocked out. I asked the medics who brought me in, they say Louis did so he knows that I got scraped up bad. I don’t know if he told the other lads though. Just in case I am going to conceal the cuts with makeup. Any other questions Kate. No, good. What sucks is I lost my knife and my pistol. Not to mention my now ex is working for the other side, he was a double agent for the guy we are looking for.”

I hear someone clear their throat, looking up I notice it was Liam. “How are you doing or rather how bad is it?” He asked.

“Doing alright just a bit scratched up nothing too bad.” I hope he bought the half lie. Turning to Kate and Rachel, I tell them “Go and get ready for the show, but be cautious, and please go find my knife it was my favorite.”

They leave and I can see that Liam has a confused look on his face.

“If you are wondering what language that was it was Russian. At the school we attended we had to learn a few languages as part of our curriculum. Russian was just one of them. And as for your follow up questions we can speak 7 different languages fluently. Yes we did learn them all at our school it was a private school. Very selective, and very academically rigorous. Now my question to you is does Harry, Zayn, or Niall know I got tossed around like a rag doll and ended up here or is it just you and Louis that know?”

“It’s just me and Louis that know. Louis didn’t want to tell the others just in case they would tell Niall. You know he really does like you a lot? Just do me a favor, if and when you two get together don’t break his heart.” And with that Liam was walking out the doors.

What the hell just happened? What did he mean by if and when? I know Niall has a massive crush on me. But how could I have a crush on Niall. Looking back now Liam was right, I was falling for Niall. And the worst part he was falling for me. I wish we could be together but after what just happened with my now ex I couldn’t dream of it. Not only that but he still has no idea who I really am. Damn it oh well the time to think about that isn’t now. Right now I have to get dressed and ready for the show and hope that the concealer stays on through the show and Niall doesn’t find out that I got tossed around.
At the show that night I got a strange look from Louis who just pointed to his arm about where my injuries would be. I tell him I used makeup to conceal them so Niall doesn’t have to worry about it. Well tonight I did decide to go all out and actually wear a little bit of makeup. And Niall took notice.

Niall’s P.O.V
Tonight Sam looked amazing. I was shocked when I saw that her hair was down, and she had makeup on. I almost didn’t recognize her, the only way I recognized her was by her eyes. The eyes that held secrets and dared anyone to try and open those secrets. Secrets that will never be revealed to the world. I want to ask her out but I know that she will need some time to forget about the last guy she was with. I heard rumors what he did to her. I was disgusted by what he did to her.
We were backstage and I heard her say that she was going to play a new song that she wrote. I didn’t hear much of the song but part of the song stuck with me. The song was amazing. But now it is our turn to go on stage. I want to spend time with Sam and let her know that I would never leave her. I wanted to tell her how I felt about her but I couldn’t. Not now anyway. I was about to say something to her but silenced myself when I saw that she had tears in her eyes. But what silenced me the most was I saw blood on her arm.

“Wait Sam what happened to your arm? Are you ok? Sam stop walking.”
I called out to Sam who is practically running toward the green room. It’s after the show and I want to ask her what happened but she just continues to walk away. I grab her arm as she is walking away

“Niall I’m fine. It’s just a scratch don’t worry. It happened when I fell on the glass table. It’s nothing to worry about, if it was I would tell you. I didn’t want you to worry.”

“I’m not as breakable as people might think you know. Just promise me that you will tell the truth to me, about anything. Did whats his name do this to you? You don’t realize that I want to protect you because I really like you ok. I just wanted to let you know that. You have no idea how you make me feel. Every night I think that I could have the courage to ask you out. I would get close to I would make it to your hotel door but lose my courage right before I could knock. I couldn’t help myself, even though I knew you had a boyfriend, but now you aren’t with him. I would love it if I could be the one to take his place. I love you.”

I can’t help but notice that she is fighting back tears in her eyes. I have never seen her with a tear in her eyes ever. Even when she was doing combat training just for fun and she got slammed into the ground and then hit hard with a freaking wooden sword. I didn’t even see them when she found out that her now ex cheated on her, and told her that he never loved her Louis told me what he heard from the argument. I let her go and watch as she runs off toward whatever it was that had grasped her attention. I was hurt by her words but at least I got a name from her. I can’t believe she would defend him like that. I saw the look in her eyes not just tears but a truth that wanted to break free, but was held back. I wanted to know the secret that was about to break free. It was hurting me to see that she was in pain. Not just physically even if it was just a scratch, but a battle was raging behind her eyes. I want to know what was she debating about inside, and if she really did love me back. I wanted to help her return to the way she was before the break up, before today. Ugh why can’t life be simple as a guy asks a girl out, girl says yes. Then they live happily ever after.
