The Kidnapper

When I walked into the small living room as quite as possible, my eyes met with my father who was sitting in his chair opposite from the door.

His eyebrows were frowned and he was drinking a cup of coffee with his reading glasses on top of his head from the afternoon paper that arrived today.

"Where have you been young lady?"
My father asks

"Out"
Apparently that was my response for everything and to me it was a way of leaving the room without explaining anything.
Quite simple actually.

But if my mom was in the room, she would make me explain..let's just say it would take me about 5 paragraphs to just mention the things that have happened this year. No wait a minute, make that 6 pages. But my parents would be the last people on earth that I would tell.

I quickly ran upstairs, since my mother was not in the room and I wasn't going to wait for her.
The door shut from behind me and I flopped on my stomach onto my fluffy bed. I missed the soft sheets so bad. And i'm never going to take it for granted ever again. That's a promise.

I grabbed my pillow and buried my face in it. I honestly felt the tears coming so I closed my eyes. But when I finally get comfortable, there's a sudden sharp feeling against the bottom of my spine. I reach down and I realize that the object was the small hand gun. I put it back into my pocket again.

My breathing slowed and as the sun set, it disappeared from behind the mountains. I fell asleep.
About 2 hours later I suddenly hear a knock at my door and my mom spoke.

"Catherine, there's someone here to see you."
I groaned, still half asleep and I grabbed the pillow from under my head to throw it at the door after my mother closed it. But instead it just hit a stack of books that tumbled to the ground.

"Shit"
I whispered to myself before I heard footsteps coming up the stairs and they came closer with every passing moment.

I sat up straight and a loud yawn escapes my mouth. As soon as my legs touch the floor, I collapse. And end up falling forward onto my hands and knees.

"Shit!"
I yell on accident..oops and I slowly get up to make my way over to the door.
It opened just a few inches and I saw a face that i hadn't seen in a long time.
Brianna
She used to be my bestfriend, but than she moved away to Virginia. After a while the communication stopped and we faded away. It's been 3 years since we last saw each other.

"Brianna!"
I screamed and opened the door wider, than brought her into a huge bear hug.

"Catherine!"
She screamed back and we pulled away from the hug, I invited her in to check out my new remodeled room and we talked for hours, just updating each other about our lives.

"It's been too long, I thought you forgot about me"
She said and we both started to laugh.
The last time we saw each other, she had short black hair down to her shoulders, and now her hair is almost past her elbows, she's taller than me and a great sense in fashion.

"I meant to ask you,"
she began,

"Please tell me what happened with Harry Styles."
I gave her a look that made it clear I was not telling her anything, but her expression revealed the complete opposite.

"He was just an asshole that kidnapped me because he thought I was pretty, he tried to seduce me, and I escaped."
I didn't want her asking about him to other people, she might end up knowing things that she's not meant to know.
So I explained it simply to her. All in one sentence.

"Oh, come on..I want the juicy details, he had to be sexy and hot."
I smiled at her and her eyes grew big,

"Am i right?"
I worded the words 'no' and shook my head. Brianna just gave my a sad face. She wanted to know more, but the less she knows, the safer she will be.
There was a moment of silence and suddenly her phone rang.
It was her mother texting her that if Brianna wasn't at the hotal that they're staying at for the next 2 days than she would be grounded.

"I'm so happy I could see you again, I wish you could stay longer""
I said to her and she smiled. I saw her eyes get a bit watery

"I'm going to miss you"
She said and pulled me into another big hug.
I opened the door and we walked down stairs and into the kitchen where my mom made her a batch of chocolate chip cookies to take home for her family.

We looked at each other for one last time and I smiled.

"Fare well"
She said and walked into the driveway.
The door closed behind her. I was honestly so happy to see my bestfriend again and I can't wait til we see each other again.

After her car drove off, I suddenly saw specks of snow falling from the sky.
Winter is here.
