I Broke Her

Bridie

"How are you feeling?" "I'm fine" "can I sit?" "Sure".
Andrei looked at me then at donny then back to me and put his head slightly down.
"You aren't sore?" "Yes I am sore but I'm hungry" "so nothing has changed" "a lot has changed donny". Pulling the gun from my shoe, I took the safety off and aimed at his manhood.
"Bridie we need to work this out. we are family" "tell me what does family do donny?" "We look out for each other. I tried to help you when you had rosa. Why the fuck did you aim a gun at me?. I understand the adrenaline was pumping but I'm not the traitor" "donny I don't think you should go there" I looked at andrei then at donny. "No not a traitor. I'd say a selfish prick and a fucking coward" "Bridie" I looked to my right to see dannon then back at donny still aiming the gun at him.
"What the fuck have I done?" "donny" "shut it andrei" "fine" andrei put his hands up at donny. "Bridie don't do it" "it's not what you fucking did its what you fucking didn't do donny. if you hadn't been such a fucking selfish prick and a coward and tell dannon the truth, I wouldn't of had to go through what I did" "you are angry because I didn't speak up?" "BRIDIE" looking at apollo, he was on the other side of me about three metres away. "I wouldn't do that apollo". "I'm beyond fucking angry donny" "it was a mistake Bridie" "a mistake?" I just shook my head "a mistake donny? Family looks out for each other. when were you looking out for anyone else but yourself in this situation?" "I know I should've spoke up sooner" "like that day as soon as you spoke with jamee would've been the better option" "what does it matter, you have dannon back and you are alive" "BRIDIE" ignoring the calls, I kept my eyes on donny "you want me to tell you?" "Yes I want to know what your fucking problem is. I know I fucked up, I had already copped it from dannon" "alright. If you had of spoke up earlier it could've saved me from being thrown around in a fucking boot, it could've saved me from being dragged across the dirt leaving scars all over my back" "BRIDIE DON'T" "it could've saved me from being tied up receiving this scar on my face, the scar on my chest and.." "BRIDIE DON'T DO IT" "on my lower stomach. it could've saved me from being hit and damn well could've saved me from not being able to have kids in the future. Not only can I not have fucking kids donny I was FUCKING PREGNANT. If you had of spoke up, you could've saved my fucking child, I would've been able to have kids. That's my fucking problem with you, maybe I should just even it up" "BRIDIE" shooting the ground donny looked at me in shock as I stood up. "Bridie Im sorry okay there's nothing I can do to change it, if I could, I would" putting the safety back on I threw the gun at donny "just a fucking reminder".
"What the hell?" Not paying attention to anyone that had come out, I Walked away from the table, dannon went to grab me but I hit his hand away and walked inside.

Dannon

I knew she had the gun in her hand and it didn't matter how many times apollo and I warned her not to do it she kept the gun aimed at donny. My heart was racing. I didn't know if she was actually going to do it or not. None of us could go near her. she had already warned apollo and I wasn't sure what would happen if we did.
Hearing the shot hit the ground a breath of relief escaped my mouth. Seeing her stand up and put the safety on she kept her eyes on donny then threw the gun at him "just a fucking reminder" then walked away. I went to pull her to me but she hit my hand away. Fuck.
"Dannon I'm sorry, I didn't fucking know" "I know donny" "she could've fucking shot me. I didn't even know she had a gun aimed at me" "we did" donny looked at me then apollo "that's why you kept warning her?" "Yes" donny shook his head running his hand through his hair. Hearing the car out the front take off, I looked straight at apollo "fuck" "Bridie?" I nodded "what the hell happened out here?" "Bridie let her anger out on donny" "did she shoot you?" "No" "we heard a shot" "she let a bullet go but only at the ground my guess is to show me that she could've anytime" "hand it here" donny passed me the gun and I put it in my pocket.
"Not going to find her?" "Apollo can track her" "she's beyond angry and driving that's not a good mix dannon" "I know but what the hell am i supposed to do. Nothing is going to calm her right now" "you can" "no, not this time".
"I need a god damn drink" walking inside, I headed straight to the kitchen pouring myself a drink. "You think that's a smart idea?" "It's not going to do anything valen".
Dropping the drink down, I put my glass on the bench. "I need to let her get her anger out" "not if she hurts herself in the process".
Fuck I don't know what to do. She driving, she's angry and she was only injured earlier today. It's starting to get dark out. I need to go find her. "Get apollo".

"Dannon" "track her" apollo walked out, I'm guessing to go grab the tracker from the car.
I need to get another car, the civic isn't fixed, she just took my car and the truck isn't going catch her. "Andrei".

"What is it?" "I need your car" "I'll drive" "fine just waiting on apollo" "I'm here".
Apollo opened his tracker "your car?" "Yeah.." waiting for a couple of minutes felt like an eternity.
"Do you like to race?" "What?" "She's at the speedway" "it's fucking dark. andrei let's go. Keep me updated apollo" "I will".

"The fucking speedway" "she knows how to drive dannon, why do you think she always takes the fast cars?" "it's dark andrei" "have trust in her" "I do but anything can bloody happen" "she could be on the streets" I nodded.
Driving past the fence of the speed way I could see her hitting two corners side ways.
"Do you treasure that car?" "No" "I'm glad because she is thrashing it" "I can Always get a new one".
Andrei turned into the speedway entrance then through the gates to the track. "What do you want me to do?" Just looking at her hit every corner side ways, I looked at the track. "Next corner flash your lights" "alright". It won't blind her but it will let her know we are here. Watching her get to the next corner, andrei flashed his lights. It didn't seem like she was stopping only picked up speed. "what the hell is she doing?" "I don't know" hitting the next corner instead of taking it sideways she must've pulled the hand brake sending her into a spin then she stopped. She knew she wasn't going to hit anything and I could see it. "Drive up to the car and park in front of her" andrei slowly drove across the speed way and parked in front of her. Hearing the engine rev, andrei looked at me "what are you going to do?" "I'm going to get out".
Opening the door, I looked straight at the windscreen as I got out. I couldn't see her because of the lights. Walking around the front of andrei's car then in between them both to the other side, I got a glimpse of her. She had her hands and her head on the steering wheel.
Moving to the car door, I opened it up.
"Bridie" "I can't do this dannon I just.. I can't do this anymore" "what can't you do?" "Stay strong. I look at you and what I could've had and now I can't have it. You deserve someone who can give you all that and I'm not her, I can't.." "do not say that Bridie" "dannon its the truth. open.." "no Bridie. Look at me" Bridie just shook her head "I can't I need to.." "NO that is not happening. I will chase you anywhere. What matters to me Is you, having you by my side always. I just got you back I'm not letting you go" Bridie just sat there silent but I could hear her break. Leaning through the car, I undid her seatbelt then pulled her towards me holding her tight "you told me when you got shot that you love me. What did I say?" "I can tell you later" "say it" "dannon" "say it Bridie" "I love you" "and I love you that's what matters. you are all that i need".
