Chapter 7: nothing

Ricky POV

I looked one last time at Vijay. I loved him so much. I felt a sharp pain in the side of my head. I heard the bang.

Nothing.

Vijays POV

"NOOOOO!!!!" I screamed. It was to late. He had gone. My world was nothing now without Ricky. I felt as if the woman had shot me too. Right in the heart.

I had to get away from here. Otherwise I would be dead too. I raced down the stairs and out of the front door. I ran all the way to Simon's house.

I got to Simon's house and knocked on the door. He opened it. Thank god he was in! "Hey Vijay! Are you ok? I haven't seen you for a while! Were is Rick-" he was cut off. The woman from the house was running down the street with the gun pointed at us. "Get in!" I shouted at simon. We quickly slammed the door and locked it.

"Are all of the windows closed?" I gushed. "Yes. Who is she?" Simon asked. "She murdered Ricky." I sobbed. "What???!!!" Simon questioned. "Ricky is dead." I said.

Peanut and whitey walked into the hallway. "Did you just say that Ricky is dead??!!" Peanut asked. "Yes. He is." I was crying now.

How can I live. I saw my true love die. Now he was gone. In the blink of an eye. The reality hit me. I was nothing without Ricky. Nothing.

Simon's POV

Ricky was dead. I have known him since I was three years old. Now he has gone. And there is a murderer just on the other side of this door.

What are we going to do? Ricky would know what to do.
