My body froze and my feet stuck to my spot. I've never witness a person dying, let alone three at the same time, right beside me.
My body shook as my wavering eyes searched for the person that was responsible for the gun shots. Something broke inside me when my eyes laid upon steel gray ones, he was fixing his pistol back into his waistband, looking so.. nonchalant. Like he didn't just kill three innocent people.
My body still refused to move as I watched him approach me. He grabbed me by my arm and pulled me out of the scene and out of the house. It was only when he roughly pushed me inside his car that I finally came to my senses. My eyes snapped to him as he came in and started driving.
"What was that about?!" I yelled, not really knowing how to confront him for killing three literal men.
"Are you insane, you're going to jail! You can't just kill people and get away with it!" I couldn't believe this was happening and we were having this conversation right now, well, one sided conversation for now since he decided to ignore me. Maybe this was too selfish of me to think, but a wishful part of me was glad, maybe this was my chance to finally be free from his grasp, he won't just get away with murder right? He's going to be thrown in prison, and I'll be... free.
The silence was killing me. It would've been better if he was yelling at me in my face right now, his silence was scaring me. I didn't want to know what he'd do to me for going against his words. Wait, is he going to kill me too? He just killed three men without remorse, who knows that he wouldn't do the same thing to me! I started hyperventilating, I didn't want to die yet. I have so much I haven't done yet! ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod.
I was lost in my thoughts I didn't realize we were in front of a large, tall building. He opened the door and pulled me out, "Please, don't kill me!" I shrieked. For a second, confusion covered his face and he pushed me against the car.
"How dare you think you can leave me by dying. But what? Me killing you? Where the fuck did you get that idea?" He said seriously, staring into my eyes. I relaxed a little, hearing those words. Maybe he won't, but you never know with Xavier. He then grabbed me by the wrist again, entering the building front doors and you see there were quite a few people in the lobby, it was like a hotel. The receptionists bowed when they saw him but he didn't spare them a glance and kept walking, we got in the elevator and as soon as the doors close shut, he turned around and pinned me against the elevator wall with his hands on either sides of my head, each holding my wrists.
