Love is for the Lucky Ones

Chapter 17

{Narrator's POV}

Mae and Tami walk into the college building, Mae was falling behind because of her casts. Tami was a couple paces ahead, but was just far enough that when she turned the corner Mae could no longer see her.

Mae walks past the silent hallway corner, only hearing the 'thud' of her casts when she walks across the floor.

A hand from just around the corner flies over Mae's mouth. She jumps backward in fear and feels a hand holding her back. Mae was beginning to get scared. She could see Tami up ahead but she was too far away to hear.

Mae makes a muffled scream and Tami turns around to see Mae being dragged into an unfamiliar room.

"Mae!" She screeches as her voice echoes down the eerie hallway.

Mae is pulled into the room and thrown to her knees. She coughs and turns around. "What the he---, Cain!" What are you doing?" Mae yells angry at Cain.

Before Cain can answer Tami burst through the door. Cain turns around and their eyes meet. "Cain? What on earth are you doing. Mae clearly doesn't want to talk to you after what she had to find out about you." Tami screams at Cain.

Cain chuckles and looks amused. "You guys are so stupid sometimes." He walks behind Tami and locks the door.

Mae stands up and brushes off her jeans. Cain walks to her and pushes her back down to her knees, her knee caps colliding with the floor.

She winces in pain.

"What the heck Cain!" Tami says.

"Aww! How cute! Sticking up for your friends." Cain says in his best girly voice impression.

Mae stands up again and, again, brushes dirt off of her jeans.

Cain grunts and pushes her to her knees once again where she stays put. "Wish I could have some of those friends, but more importantly, so does she."

Mae and Tami give Cain puzzled looks as he walks to the end of the room where another door was.

The room was painted an off-white/yellow color. The floor was tiled and there was nothing in the room but the entrance door and another door that Cain stood in front of.

He pushed down the metal handle slowly and pulled open the door. Inside lay a body and with further inspection revealed that it was Brody's.

"What the actually hell! Why do you have his body?" Mae screams at Cain. Tami says pushed against the wall in the corner.

"I bet you would like to know wouldn't you." Cain says grasping Mae's arm and digging his choppy nails into her left arm.

I defeated cry leaves Mae's body as she again collides with the floor.

"I have his body so I can dispose of all if them at once." Cain says smirking and cackling.

"You mean there is more?" Tami says surprised.

"Oh yes, lots." Cain smiles evilly. "After you two comes, Cassie and then your beloved Gina."

"Wh-why? Why are you doing this. I thought you loved me. I thought we were all friends." Mae screams at him cradling her arm while she was still on the floor.

"Well, I guess you and your precious little friends, thought wrong. After what I saw you in earlier on, Mae, I decided that I couldn't be with someone that was so freakin' irresponsible and always needing someone to cradle them." Cain spits out leaning close to Mae's face. "And, I will NEVER love you again."

Tears spill out of Mae's eyes. "I guess this is how we meet and how we leave." Cain states referring to the first time Mae and Cain saw each other in the hallways at the school.

Mae gives him a puzzled look. "Leave?"

Tami then replies for Cain, "Yes leave."

Tami pulls something out of her pockets and reveals it. A gun.

She bends down and presses the barrel to Mae's head.

Mae screams in shock wondering how this is even possible. "What?!"

Tami presses her finger down pulling the trigger back. Mae squirms, for her life is on the line.

Tami chuckles and Cain joins in and Tami mindlessly lets go of the trigger.

"Oops!" She says smiling as a bullet soars into Mae's skull. The crunch of the bone brought blood with it, dripping down the side of her head.

He body falls over limp as the life seems to fade from her body.

"Job well done." Cain says and nods in approval with Tami.

In that moment Gina shot up in a cold sweat.
