I am dreading this day and it's already noon. I just have 2 to 3 hours left for the party. I don't know why but iam feeling like something is going to happen and these past few days are my best days. I have been living in a shell for the last year but here in New York with lilly and Zay, it feels like there had been nothing bad that happened in the past. I have been miserable for the past year and this one month in New York with lilly and Zay shows me I can be happy again, I can laugh wholeheartedly again. I can survive a a day without a panic attack and I can breathe without feeling like someone is judging me.

It took 2 hours to get ready. Zayreen gave me a red dress which comes to my knees and has thin straps on my shoulders and it fits like a glove. She did my hair and makeup which consists of smokey eyes and curls.zay added some volume to my brown hair by curling. My grey eyes are looking alive with smokey color and at last with a Scarlett red lipstick.
She is wearing a black dress which reached above her knees and her red hair is straightened and she is looking gorgeous with her red hair and black dress.

Lilly is wearing a silver-colored mini dress and her blonde hair is curled too. With the silver color dress and blonde hair, she is looking like an angel.

" okay girls let's go. our uber just arrived," Lilly yelled from the living room.
"Yeah wait a minute " yelled zay from her room and came running out strapping her heel.

" Okay okay let's go girls our uber is here. We don't want to get late, come" Lilly said grabbing her purse from the dining table.
My thoughts are everywhere. I feel like my nerves are gonna explode. Why? Why do I have to be like this? Why can't I be normal like others?

I just want to enjoy this party with my friends without getting panicked or getting cold feet. I just have to be calm.
We reached our destination in 30 minutes thanks to the no traffic.

“ Oooooh the music is pretty loud and it is pumping me up for the start,” Zay said adjusting her dress and hair.

“I feel like my eardrums are gonna break” lilly whined and tried to close her ears with her hands but Zay jumped on her and removed her hands scolding her “ seriously! What are you 50? Don’t be a party pooper lilly. Without music, there will be no fun in partying. So chill babe” Zay said pushing lilly towards the entrance.

I know I have pep talked myself but now seeing people and my surroundings I feel like i am going to faint.

After calming myself down I joined lilly and Zay who are still arguing about the party " guys will you please stop arguing like a married couple who argues for every single thing. Can we please join the crowd” I asked them folding my hands?

“ Sorry,” they both said in unison.

“ Come let’s go,” I said and we entered the party.

Party House is pretty much big and dark with disco lights and the kitchen in the corner.

People are dancing and pretty much grinding on each other. “Don’t call me up by Mabel is playing and people are dancing with new energy to this song.

“ Yayyyyy this is my favorite song come on guys let’s dance” Zay pulled us towards the dance floor and stared dancing.

We danced to two more songs and went to the kitchen for a drink.

I don't drink so I took a fruit punch. Lilly and Zay ordered alcoholic punch.

So far the party is going fine and smoothly and I am enjoying it. I thought that I am gonna get bored out of my mind but no surprisingly am enjoying it.

Lilly and Zay is on the dance floor dancing to Selena Gomez's taki taki and they wanted me to join them but I am having a good time watching people from afar. Zay pouted when I told her to dance without me and like a child she stomped away.

It's been three hours since we are here and now I wanted to pee very badly.

I searched for Zay and lilly on the dance floor and they are both dancing with guys so I don't want to interrupt. So I went alone searching the washroom.

There is a big line in front of the washroom and I needed to relieve myself pretty bad.

“ Excuse me! Is this the only bathroom here? I asked a girl who is standing in the line.
“ Umm no there are bathrooms on the first floor they are attached with rooms. This is the common bathroom” she said.

I can’t wait for another minute if I wait I am gonna explode.

I went upstairs and opened the first door" Ahhhhhhh who the hell are you? Close the door" someone yelled from the room and I closed my eyes from the scene which is happening in the room.

" Sorry sorry carry-on" I yelled back banging the door hard. I scolded myself for the embarrassment.

I opened the last door in the corner while peeking inside with one eye open because I don't want to witness anything.

Thank God there is no one in the room.
I relieved myself and started washing my hands.

I adjusted my dress and wiped my mascara which is a little bit out of line.

Suddenly I got the feeling like someone is watching me. I got goosebumps all over my body and it's the bad kind of feeling.

I turned around and looked at the door where a guy is standing precisely leaning on the door. How he entered the bathroom I don't know but he is giving me creeps.

I stopped doing what I am doing and started making my way to the door." Um excuse me" I said giving him a hint that I want to go out.
He moved to the side and allowed me to leave the bathroom.

I dashed to the door hurriedly because I am not feeling good about this guy. His stare is like a predator and he is looking at me like I am his prey for the night.

Before I even got to the door he closed it and clicked the lock.

“What are you doing? Let me go “ I said moving forward to the door.

“ Ummm not that easy. If you want to leave you have to do something for me” he said smirking and assessing with his eyes from my head to toe lingering his gaze on certain places where I don’t feel comfortable.

" I am not going to do anything so let me leave," I said with a strong voice and confidence but inside I am freaking out.

“ No darling you are not leaving here until I say so,” he said while coming my way slowly with his annoying smirk.

“ If you take one more step I am gonna yell and people will come,” I said confidently.

He got that sinister grin on his face which is giving me chills down my spine “ you see darling this is the last room in the house and no one is going to hear your voice with the loud music so be a darling ” his words are making me want to throw up.

" Leave me " I am struggling but he is way stronger than me and his body weight is crushing me.

"Stop struggling and yelling no one is going to save you," he said laughing out loud.

I didn't stop struggling and yelling. He is all over me. Touching me with his dirty hands.

Tears are streaming down my face and it is hard to breathe." I am not gonna let him win. iam going to fight back.”

I started yelling loud this time gathering my all strength.

" No somebody help please help" I started yelling loudly and thrashing violently in his arms.

He started slapping me and trying to close my mouth with his hand but I bite hhis hand and immediately he removed it " b**** you are gonna pay for this" he yelled angrily and pulled my hair hard and started pulling me towards the bed.

He dumped me on the bed and crushing me with his weight and started choking me. I think this is my last moment of life. I feel like I am gonna die today. it is becoming hard to breathe and I am seeing black dots in my vision.

Suddenly the bodyweight which is crushing me is gone. I took a large gulp of air.
I was immediately surrounded by my two best friends. they both hugged me and started crying. I hugged them back.

" Sh scar calm down we are here nothing happened don't cry everything is okay." lilly said rubbing my back and wiping my tears.
If they would have not found me I don't know what would have happened.

" Yes, scar don't cry. breath see we are here and my brother is handling him so don't worry he is not going to come near you again," she said while looking towards the side of the room where the bad guy is beaten by someone who is tall and has a man bun but I am having difficulty seeing clearly with tears and my breathing.

" Omer stop you are going to kill him .let the cops handle him" Zay yelled from here. The guy stopped beating and the bad guy collapsed on the ground.

" What the hell are you doing at this party zayreen? You would have asked me first before coming here" the guy looked pissed.

" You are not dad omer so stop ordering me what to do and not to do" Zay replied angrily.

I gasped aloud and the guy looked my way we made eye contact. he has chocolate brown eyes. He is tall muscular with light subtle on his jaw sharp jaw and a man bun. His eyes are cold but mysterious it feels like he is reading me through his eyes. I feel naked in front of him.

I feel like he has the power to destroy someone and build them back.
He is my knight in shining armor. if not for him I don't know what had happened. I fell in to the darkness before seeing brown concern eyes.
