Words Never Said

Chapter 5: The fight.

-CHAPTER 5-

My friend finally speaks up "That's Chris, and his gang, remember? The one that where after us, well you in middle school"

At that moment I froze and I felt the coldest chill go down my spine. I didn't know what to do.

If we stay here they will eventually see us and if we try to run they'll catch up to us because they are much faster than us, especially me since I’m so small.

The reason why they were after me was because I knew too much about them, which is sort of true but why would I say anything to anybody, I know better than to mess with bloods they might come after me or worse, my family and I couldn’t have that.

Another reason was that Chris was supposedly in love with me and wanted to have sex with me but of course I wasn’t ready to lose my virginity and I sure didn’t want to lose it to him.

As I look around for a way to get away from them I noticed two guys coming out of one of the stores, "why are they here-?" I stopped in the middle of my sentence because I knew who they were.

Oh no! Its Jonathan and Caleb. 

They’re brothers and only a few years apart, two to be exact; everyone thinks they're twins but I didn’t I could see the differences in their physical appearances and they're personalities were very different from each other.

I dated Caleb for about 6 months. But I’ve known him for 3 years. We were really close friends and he was always there when I needed him, he was a little too arrogant at times but never the less he always knew how to make me smile but of course everything changed when we broke up even though we said we would stay friends and all that bullshit.

I'll save you the sob story.

"Yo! You Aprils ex?!" yelled Chris from a distance, those words made me wince, I didn’t like the sound of that my ‘ex’, but whatever. I ignored the thought and concentrated on what they were saying, I was far away so couldn’t really hear them. Caleb stared at Chris and took a while to answer. Normally it would be like taking a bullet to the heart if he said no and pretended he didn’t know about my existence but right now I’m hoping and praying on everything I believe in that he says that he is not.

With a confused look Caleb says "yeah, why?"

Damnn, why couldn't just say no I thought while putting my head down. Even though I have my head down resting on my arms I can feel my friend's intense stare and I know she knows what I’m thinking about.

Even though I’m still laying down with my head down not being able to see what exactly is going on I can hear Chris and His gang run. I didn’t know in which direction they were running to, but I was hoping it was towards me and not them. But just because I was hoping that was happening didn’t mean I knew what was really happening, they were running towards Jonathan and Caleb.

Trying not to cry I look up and I see that they caught both of them but they are holding Jonathan back but Caleb, they're hitting him, punching him, and kicking him and with every hit it feels like someone is jabbing a stake deeper and deeper into my heart, the pain was too much, I didn’t want to see this I shouldn’t have to see this.

I can see blood dripping from his face onto his t-shirt. He's all bloody and bruised; if they continue nobody will be able to recognize him or even worse they’ll kill him.

I couldn't take anymore. At this point my eyes were watery and as much as I tried holding back the tears I couldn’t anymore and they rushed down my cheeks and hit my arms that were crossed in front of me, I cried like I’ve never cried before. It hurts so much. I just want to run in front of him and protect him, how I was going to protect him exactly I didn’t know. All I knew was that I couldn’t just lay here watching the injure him but I couldn’t move my friend was pinning me down to the floor restricting me from doing anything.

All of a sudden they stopped and everyone backed away. I felt relieved but looking at Caleb spit out blood and gags in pain still hurt.

My vision was foggy from how watery my eyes were but I could somewhat see Chris reach for something in the back of his pants.

A gun! No! They're going to kill him! 

I can’t just lay here watching them as they kill him!

I try to get my friend to let go of me but she won't. In desperation I squirm and kick and try to get up to get away from her strong grip.

Why did she have to be so strong, why did I have to be so weak, why did I have to come to this stupid party. Why did Caleb and Jonathan have to come to this store!
