"But I also believe," 

-

Third Person POV.

A year ago...

THE NIGHT...

Everyone was so struck by the very Bang that shook the neighbourhood.

Other neighbors stood outside their homes.

Watching the red and blue light shine by the Michaels home.

Ambulances.

Police cars.

Kids screaming on the driveway.

All adults being checked by paramedics.

One body caught everyone's eyes.

A bloody teenage girl on a stretcher, struggling to breathe.

Her parents crying for the girl, who is on the edge of living.

Louisa only screamed at herself for what she had said to Jackie.

Louisa knew the bullet was supposed to hit her.

But Jackie threw her out of the way.

No matter how much screaming Louisa said to Jackie, Jackie saved her.

Benny was dumbfounded.

She was right. My family only creates problems.

We caused the fight between Jackie and her siblings.

My brother is a psycho who has tried to shoot them all down, twice.

My sister is tempered bitch.

My mother likes to have sex with almost every man in this town.

And my dad is a deadbeat who ran away with another woman.

One thing we all have in common.

We all stole from the Michaels.

I stole her safety.

She was fine with her family.

With Wendy.

But I had to wreck the life she had, by being so in love with her.

I wanted to be with her.

I wanted to laugh with her.

Talk with her.

But I guess...

You just don't get those sort of things.

Love has consequences.
