Chapter 25 FO . My phone pings and I pull it out , glancing at the screen . My eyes scan the words and my grip on the phone tightens as I feel the anger curse through my body . The urge to break every bone in Trevor's worthless body grows stronger by the second . " Fuck . I mumble , feeling powerless . I respond back to her , my fingers tapping away at the screen quickly . The image of her trapped with him trying to kill her flashes through my mind and I let out a yell in frustration . The anger continues to build inside of me until it's impossible to contain and I lash out , needing a release . Pain flares through my knuckles but it does little to help my anger . 1 scroll through my phone , jaw tensed as I finally find what I'm looking for . I ring him , bouncing on the heels of my trainers impatiently as I wait for him to answer . " What do you need ? " " Emily Wentworth , full address . " Within a few seconds he has it for me , word for word . It's only a ten minute walk , five if I run . I end the call and pull my hood over my head . On the way images of her bruised and beaten body fills my thoughts which fuels me to run faster . She looked so vulnerable , years of abuse finally breaking her in pieces . I feel a sense of honour knowing I'm the first person she confided in . When she told me she trusts me , I was completely taken aback . Not many people trust me . I held her against me the entire night , unable to sleep a wink myself . She doesn't remember but knowing I was there to comfort her made it worth every second . Every time she stirred or mumbled in fear due to her nightmares , I held her closer . I know I'm becoming way too protective over this girl and if I'm completely honest ... It terrifies me . I never like to admit fear either . Emily's POV - I hear a soft tapping noise coming from my window . I walk towards it and open it , peering down to find Jake stood at the bottom , panting . I stand there , staring down at how attractive he looked , unable to stop myself from admiting his beauty . Beads of sweat are glistening on his forehead and his hair is a complete mess but for some reason , I like it . " Emily , don't just stand there and stare ! Get down here ! He whisper - yells , shaking his head at my lack of co - operation . I snap out of it , my eyes widening as it dawns on me what he's suggesting . " You want me to jump out of this window ? I gesture at the window and then cross my arms tightly over my chest , glaring at him . " Do you want to kill me Jake ? " I ask , my eyes narrowing at him . I notice his right hand bleeding and my eyes widen further " What happened to your hand ? " " What happened to your face ? " He shot back , signalling at the cut on my head . 1/2 9:05 Tue , Oct 14 G Chapter 25 Touche 名 零 hack . I can't jump , it's too high Jake . I swallow nervously , glancing down at the height . My stomach does a complete flip and I take a step Tight " Muffin , it's the only way you can get out . You won't fall , I'll catch you . He reassures me , holding out his arms . I groan , knowing he's I couldn't stay here with Trevor any longer , the thought alone terrified me . I drop my bag out the window first , hearing lake catch it with an oomph . " God , what have you got in here ? " He mutters up at me , his eyebrow raised slightly . " Girl stuff , I respond , sitting on the window ledge and rotating myself . I grip onto the ledge tightly , shutting my eyes . " That's it , you've got it . " Jake encourages me . " Dear God , if I fall to my death , please send me straight to heaven . " " Emily , what are you doing ? " Jake hisses , cutting me off . " Saying a prayer incase I die ! " " It's not that far ! You're tall anyway , use them legs for good use . " I scoff and lower myself down , my knuckles turning white from the strain of having to grip onto the ledge .
