Falling For You — Chapter 40

Lydia's POV

It has been 9 months and mine and Blake's relationship has been stronger than ever.

"Baby, i am leaving early. I need to get this done." I told Blake on the phone. "Why, Lydia? You can wait for an hour more. Please." He begged and i rolled my eyes.

"We'll meet tonight. Now, go and focus on your football, Blake. Bye."

"Dont you date hang up o-" I hung up before he could finish and smiled. I knew i was in for trouble but its been a while since i have irritated Blake.

I pulled up in the shop. I was going to get a hair spa, get my nails done and have a body wax. There was a charity ball tonight and our family and the Parker's were invited.

Julia and Alessa were already present. We got started directly.

It was almost 7 when we were done. Of course we were getting late so we called Blake to get our dresses and purses. We had the make up as soon as we wore our dresses and we were done.

Our finals had ended last week. Atlast we were free now.

"You look beautiful." Blake said when he saw me. I gave him a cheeky smile. "You don't look that bad either." I told him. Blake has been growning hotter as time passes by.

He had developed more muscle and looked even hotter then before. I feel so blessed to have a boyfriend like him.

Yes, we have had our own little fights but our bond grew stronger with time. I loved him so much. I loved him more than anything in this world.

There had been many people trying to break our relationship but we never let them effect our relationship.

We four sat in the SUV waiting. Of course, Nate's and River's families were also invited but they'd meet us directly at the all.

I intertwined my fingers with Blake. For some unknown reason, he looked tense as fuck. I rubbed his arms. "Are you alright? You look tensed." I asked him.

He looked at me and gave me a smile. I noticed that it didn't reach his eyes though. "Yes, baby. I am fine. Don't worry." He said and leaned down to peck me on my lips.

When we reached to the ball, Blake leaned down and whispered, "do not leave my side. Okay?" He asked and I nodded.

Weird.

Blake got out first and then offered me his hand. I thanked him and got out of the car. "Welcome sir, ma'am." The security guard greeted us. "Can I have your pass, please?"

Blake handed the guy the passes and we entered the huge room.

It was decorated beautifully. We spotted our families along with River's and Nate's and went to them. We all greeted eachother and complimented eachother and then sat down when we were asked to.

After a while, I decided to use the restroom to check on my make up. "Hey, excuse me for a while. I'll go and check on my makeup." I said.

Blake seemed less tense than before. He looked happy and carefree. He nodded at me and I walked to the washroom.

It was empty, of course. As I checked up on my makeup, the door opened and in came a man.

He looked weird and gave me weird vibes. Nonetheless, I put on a smile. "Sir, this washroom is for ladies. I think you took the wrong door."

"Oh no, Lydia. I know I am at the right place. Exactly where I wanted to meet you." He said and creepily smiled at me.

I backed away a little when he moved closer to me. My heartbeat fastened and my palms grew sweaty.

"Who are you? How the fuck do you know my name?" I asked him as I reached into my bag to look for my phone.

Obviously, I forgot it on the table.

FML.

"I am Davis. Emily's brother. I am sure Blake must have told you about her." He said and my blood ran cold. Literally.

"You seem a little pale, sweetheart." He said and let out a chuckle. He looked like a fucking psychopath right now. I have never ever been so scared in my life.

"What do you want from me?" I asked him, trying to act strong but I knew I had failed miserably because my hands were shaking and Davis had a menacing smile on his face.

"Well, he took my sister away from me. She was my everything. Now, I would take his everything away." He said and my mouth dropped open.

I was going to die. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD. OH MY GOD.

Never had I ever imagined dying due to a murder. I had imagined a happy life. I had imagined myself old, with my grandchildrens and children's around me. It was a peaceful death situation.

"Oh no, honey. I will not kill you nor will I kill him. I'll break you both emotionally. I have a perfect plan for it." He said.

"What do you want from me?" I asked as he stepped closer to me. I knew I had started shaking. I was about to cry because I was terrified. But, no tears fell from my eyes.

"I think it's your 10 month anniversary this weekend? I want you to make it seem like you're cheating on him. Then, I want you to leave. I want you to make him feel like you are leaving him with me. I want him to feel what it feels like when someone you love leaves you." He said.

My heart broke internally. My Blake has gone through so much already. I'll never do this to him.

"No. Blake hasn't done anything. None of this was his fault. Please don't do this!" I begged him and a couple of tears fell from my eyes.

Davis grabbed me by my throat. "If you don't do it, I'll kill each and every member of yours and your friend's family." He threatened.

Oh god, please no!

"I am not joking Lydia. I am smarter than you are. I have been planning this since you and Blake got together. I have many connections and they'd not hesitate to do this. All of your loved ones would die and Noone would even know." He said in a cold voice.

Goosebumps rose on my body.

Davis's hold tightened on my neck. "Will you do it or do you want everyone to die?" He asked me.

"I'll do it. I'll do it. Please don't hurt anyone!" I begged. Davis gave me a smile which got me terrified. "Good. Now I'll let you know what to do. You say a word to anyone and your loved ones die." He warned to which I nodded.

He fixed himself a little and was out of the bathroom in seconds.

I am totally fucked up.
