"Dude?" Jack shook me, waking me from my daydream. He must have been talking at me.

"Sorry, what you say?" I ask him, flicking my eyes back over to Rina. She was stood pretty much alone at the bar. Matt wasn’t far from her, but his attention was taken by some blue haired chick shamelessly hitting on him. I felt the need to go talk to her, she shouldn’t be all alone.

"I said I……. Your not even listening to me now! What is up with you?" He turns to see what I had been staring at. He turns back to look at me with a smirk.

"Oh...Rina" He grins at me, wiggling his eyebrows. I punch him in the arm which just makes him laugh.

"You don’t know what your talking about" I told him, reluctantly pulling my gaze from her.

"Bullshit. Go talk to her dude!" I considered it for a moment, thinking about what I would say. I picked up my drink and was about to walk over when a man appeared behind her. I really didn’t like the look of him. The way he stood so close to her, speaking into her ear. It was obvious what he was after. Jack patted my back.

"You'll get another chance. There are some hot girls dancing over there, wanna join me?"

"Nah dude, you go" He briefly nodded before disappearing into the dancing crowd. I really didn’t feel like being there. I ordered another drink from the bar, slowly sipping it and feeling sorry for myself. I had nearly finished it when someone tapped my shoulder. It was Matt.

"Have you seen Rina?" He asked. He was trying to hide his panic. I looked over to the bar. She was gone, and so was the mystery guy.

"She was at the bar with some dude" I frowned, trying to think where they could of gone. Probably to fuck. Although Rina didn’t seem like that kinda girl to me. Matt looked through the crowd with a worried expression.

"We should look for her. I didn’t get a good vibe from the guy she was with" Matt nodded.

"I'll look around in here, you look outside" He ordered. I nodded and made my way to the exit. I was trying to stop myself from thinking the worst. I asked the bouncers on the door if they had seen her. The directed me to the car park behind the club. It was pretty isolated, only one car was occupying the vast space. The idea of Rina being here, alone with that guy, made my skin crawl. I stood in the very corner, scanning the space in front of me. No sign of her. I ran my hand through my hair, trying to think what the hell to do next.

"Excuse me?" I heard a small voice from behind me. I turned to see a concerned looking girl stood in front of a small group. She carried on talking.

"Are you looking for a brunette girl?" My heart sped up.

"Yeah have you seen her?" I asked, hoping she'd say something that would calm me down.

"That's the thing, she was with this guy and they got in a van a while ago"

"Where'd they go?" I almost shouted, my words rushing out.

"That way" I didn’t even have time to thank her, I took off. I didn’t go back to the club. I ran to the venue car park. There were a few crew still there. I said I didn’t have time to explain but I needed the van. I must've been way over the limit but I really didn’t give a crap, this was too important. They didn’t ask any questions, just handed over a set of keys. I sped along the road the girl pointed to, not really sure what to look for. It wasn’t long before I spotted something… or someone face down in the grassy verge alongside the road.

"Oh my god…." I breathed to myself, praying she was okay. I slammed on the breaks, opening the van door before it came to a stop. I jumped out of my seat and knelt down at her side. My eyes were wide and my heart was in my mouth as I slowly turned her over, unsure on what I was going to find. Her head wasn’t hurt. I shook her shoulders gently.

"Rina" I said clearly, but she didn’t respond. If I had not been so stupid and let my idiotic jealousy get in the way, this may never had happened. I picked her up from the grass verge and laid her gently on the seat in the van, walking round and getting in the other side. I turned the van around and head towards the hospital. I pulled out my phone, dialling Matt's number. I didn’t wait for him to say anything when he picked up.

"I've got her"

"Oh thank god, is she okay? Where are you?" He sighed heavily with relief, but still sounded on edge.

"we're on the way to the hospital, she's unconscious" I was concentrating on not landing the van in a river, we needed to be at the hospital fast.

"Wh...WHAT!"

"Calm down dude, she's safe now. Meet us at the hospital"

"I'm right behind you" His breath was ragged, he was obviously running. I hung up, returning my other hand to the wheel.

"Alex…?" I heard a croaky quiet voice.

"Rina, how'd you feel?" I asked, lightly placing my hand on her thigh. She cowered away from my touch, backing herself into a corner up against the door. I frowned at her, not understanding what I had done.

"Where are we going?" She ignored my question, her eyes shooting around the van, wide with confusion. I spoke slowly.

"To the hospital, you need checking over. Your safe now, try and relax" I smiled at her weakly, trying to calm her. My eyes darted between the road ahead and her face, trying to evaluate her expression. What I said seemed to confuse her, she looked to the floor and furrowed her brows. There was definitely something really wrong.

"Do you remember anything?" I asked cautiously. I had no idea what I was going to find out.

"I… there was a van. Then I was walking… but I don’t know where" The creases in her forehead grew deeper. Pools of tears began to form in her eyes, probably from the frustration of having no clue what had happened in the last hour.

"Shh now, it's alright. Its just shock, I'm sure you'll remember" I tried to assure her in a soothing voice. I resisted the urge to touch her, I didn’t want to freak her out again. I didn’t know if she would ever remember. Whatever had happened, it was definitely something she'd want to forget.
