He was going to kiss me, I just know it, then those jerks had to ruin it. 4 boys with guns aimed, burst into the room, staring us down. I realized I have never felt true fear before. Of the past few days living hour by hour, I had never exprienced fear. The terror that twists your gut. The horror that sends your soul plummeting.
Watching Ryan bleed, seeing those parents cry, staring David in the eyes. "Eric, go find David. Tell him we found the love-birds." One of the boys leaves, Ryan and I still have 3 guns trained on us. "And don't try anything. You're lucky I haven't shot Romeo yet. But I will if I have to."
It takes 4 minutes. 4 minutes of standing, staring down Death before eric comes back with David. "Good job, Joshua. Lovely capture." David's cold eyes lock on me the moment he enters the room. "You three, leave. Joshua, give me your gun, then follow them." Eric and the two others do as their told, Joshua tailing behind them.
It was just us now, but Ryan and I were together. That's the most important thing. "Now, Ally, I know you have a gun, might as well pull it out." I reach and pull my gun out of the waistband of my pants. "Good, now let's not do anything rash." Anger boils my blood as I nearly scream, "Rash?! Are we really talking like this? You've got some nerve talking to me like I'm the pyscho bad guy. So, you might wanna look in the mirror."
David chuckles. It was a nice sound. ButI flash back to Thinking he was beautiful. A pretty face could never disguise a monstruous soul. "Now, now, Ally, let's not get testy." He smiles and I can't find an ounce of beauty. The monster inside of him was being revealed and no movie star good looks was going to hide that.
"Remember, you can't make it out of here alive. There's no escaping. You're too smart to think that. If, IF, you make it out of this room, you still have no chance. My followers will shoot him. He will die. Lover boy will bleed out in front of your eyes-"
"STOP!"
