chapter 13
Nouf's P.O.V
I was sobbing into his chest for at least half an hour before I calmed down a bit. His tight grasp was no longer tight as he pulled away from the hug to look at me. His eyes met mine and he inhaled deeply. 'How bad did they treat you?' He asked softly.
'Who?' I asked, trying to act confused.
'The people who kidnapped you.'
I licked my lower lip. 'I honestly wanted to die Turki.' Yes, I did say his first name. Sue me. 'I couldn't stand it, it was like... I can't even explain it.' I shook my head.
'They did quite some damage.' Faisal said getting up from his seat and looking me up and down.
'Nouf.' Turki started. 'Do you know who they were?'
I shook my head. 'They always had their faces masked up.'
'And how did you get back here?'
'They dropped me off in the middle of nowhere and they said I wouldn't survive, but I walked for ages and reached here.'
I felt Turki's eyes looking me up and down and then gasping. 'They did all this?' He asked softly whilst gently picking up my left arm and inspecting all the cuts and bruises that lay on it.
I nodded slowly. 'They beat me regularly and they hardly ever fed me.'
'Nouf... did you ever try to...?' He trailed off.
I nodded again. 'Many times, but the room hardly had any furniture in it. I was hoping that I would die soon because I thought I would never see you guys again.' My eyes slowly filled up with my tears.
'Oh Nouf.' Turki hugged me again.
'Being with them made me realise how lucky I was to get kidnapped by you.' I sobbed again.
'Look, I-I'm s-sorry about the way I t-treated you.' He stuttered. THE Turki Al Fulany is apologizing to me? Aww! I love how he stutters it's so cute.
I smiled weakly. 'Turki, it's okay.'
'It's not okay though.' He got frustrated with himself. 'I hurt you and it's not right, I know I kill and hurt people all the time but you... you're... different.'
'Oh...' I don't really know how to respond to that.
'Different is good.' He reassured me.
For the rest of the day, Turki got me cleaned up and gave me some new clothes to change into as I haven't had a change of clothing in a week. I sat at the kitchen table and Turki came and sat opposite me. He placed his hand on top of mine and I swear I felt a jolt of electricity go through me, as cheesy at it is, it's true. I looked up and saw Turki with the same face that I had on. 'You felt that too?' I whispered.
He ignored my question and moved the subject to something else. 'I know you know who took you.'
'I don't know who kidnapped me Turki.' I insisted.
'You're lying.'
'I'm not.'
He interlocked his fingers with mine and looked me in the eyes. 'Did they tell you not to tell anyone?'
I nodded. 'They said they would kill me if I told anyone.' I whispered.
'So you do know.'
'Yes Turki. Of course I know.' I rolled my eyes.
'Then tell me.' He leaned closer to me so that his face was inches away from mine.
I looked down and shook my head. 'I'm not allowed.'
'Nouf, this is serious.' He lifted up my chin. 'It was The Stoners wasn't it?'
I shook my head. 'No.' My voice cracked when I said it. Great, I just gave it away.
He slammed his fist down on the table which caused me to jump. 'I KNEW IT!!' He then saw me and immediately calmed down. 'I'm sorry Nouf, for that.' He hugged me.
'It's alright. I'm just scared y-you'll-'
'No, no, no, I'll never ever EVER hit you again.' He rubbed my back.
I nodded. 'Look, if you go and try and kill The Stoners, they'll know that I'm your weakness. That means they'll try and harm me more.'
'Nouf, trust me.' He looked in my eyes. 'I'll make sure they'll never get in your way again.'
'How?'
'I'm going to kill them.' He said and went up to a storage cupboard, unlocked it and took out a few guns.
'TURKI!' I shouted. 'ARE YOU STUPID?'
'Maybe, but I know when to get revenge and when not to.'
'Then you'll see that now isn't the time to get revenge!'
'Nouf.' He turned to me and kissed my cheeks and as cheesy as this sounds , it felt amazing!. It was enough to make me get lost in rainbow land. He pulled away from me too soon and looked me in my eyes. 'I promise I'll be back in one piece.'
'You can't promise that though.' My voice was shaky.
'I can and I am.' He smiled.
'You're not going alone are you?' I questioned.
'No, I'll be with Faisal of course.'
'So I'll be home alone?'
It was silent for a few seconds until he spoke again, 'good point, I'll get a friend round.' He pulled out his iPhone and dialled a number and speaking into it. 'Hey, Nayef... yeah I'm good man, listen I have a job for you... no, no, it's not like that... just looking after someone for me whilst I'm out on a mission... nothing serious, just getting revenge... yeah, I'll fill you in fully when you get here. Thanks man, I owe you big time. See ya.' He hung up and smiled at me. 'We've got someone coming round in an hour.'
'Who?'
'You'll see.' He smirked.
About an hour later, there was a knock at the door and Turki opened it and followed it with a hey etc. The man's voice was familiar so I walked to the door and saw the man who trained me... this is Nayef? I see....
'Nouf! Good to see you again.' He smiled and gave me a friendly hug.
'You too Nayef.' I smiled back.
'Right, Faisal and I will be back in 3 hours at the MOST.' Turki said whilst loading his last gun.
I went up to Turki and hugged him. 'Be careful.' I whispered in his ear.
'I will, don't worry.' He whispered back. He talked to Nayef for like 10 minutes before he decided it was time to go. 'Right come on Faisal.' He called.
'Lets do this.' I heard Faisal say whilst walking down the stairs.
'Bye baby.' Turki whispered to me as we passed each other.
'Bye.' I whispered.
After they were gone, Nayef sat on the couch and so did I. 'So... I heard what happened.' He picked THAT conversation? Really?
I sighed. 'Yeah...'
'Turki sure kept cool. I thought he would have gone on a rampage.'
'I thought he would come and find me.'
'They would have been expecting him.'
'I suffered so much.' Tears filled my eyes.
'The good thing is that you came back.' He reassured me.
I shook my head. 'They told me not to tell ANYONE it was them who kidnapped me... but I told Turki and now they're probably gonna kill Turki and I.'
'He really cares for you... he'll make sure they won't do that.'
'I'm so messed up!' I suddenly exclaimed.
'Why?' He asked confused.
'TURKI AL FULANY KIDNAPPED ME!! And now I'm hugging him and falling for him! I can't! I just can't! HE TOOK ME AWAY FROM MY FAMILY!!!!'
'Hey calm down.' He said trying to calm me down.
'No, I need to get out of here.' I said and ran out the front door with Nayef chasing me.
'You can't do this! You won't get far!' He called from behind me.
'I can only try!' I yelled as I ran faster down the dusty round. I can already taste freedom.
So this is chapter 13 , hope you liked it , ohh and I want to ask about something , do you think it's inappropriate that they hug or not cause a girl suggested that I add kissing but i felt that's way too inappropriate , anyways enjoy :*
