Emotional

Chp 27.

Recap

I closed my eyes but they instantly shot back open at an angry yell coming from the house.

"YOU WHORE!"
----------------------------------
Emo turned and ran as fast as he could into the house. He could hear multiple people fighting upstairs but then...

BANG! BANG! BANG!

He stopped at the foot of the stairs. It was completely silent.
Emo slowly walked up the stairs prepared to react if need be. He walked down the hall to find a room with a wide open door. In the room there was a man on the ground only in boxers and has 3 bullet holes in his chest. There was a woman sitting on the bed wrapped in blankets and shaking with fear. He recognized her as the woman in the picture Hunter had in his wallet. His wife. Speaking of Hunter, he was stood in the middle of the room with a gun in his hand and his back to Emo.
"H-Hunter?" Emo said quietly.
He didn't even flinch. Emo slowly walked up behind him.
"Hunter give me the gun." He said slowly. This time Hunter whipped around and faced Emo.
"I-I didn't mean to.... he came at me.....I." He tried to say. He just stopped and dropped his head. He slowly pulled the gun to his temple.
"No! Don't!" I yelled.
He lifted his head and looked at me with teary eyes.
"I just killed a man. My wife cheated on me. Where can I go from there?" He said letting out a light chuckle at the end.
"I can help you. Just come back to the house with me. We'll figure something out."
"NO!" He shouted suddenly causing Emo to flinch.
"No." he said softer.
"Your hurt, heartbroken, scared and you don't know what to do. I know what that's like. That's how I spent most my life. But it doesn't have to be like that." Emo said.
Hunter broke down. The gun fell from his grip and Emo swept his hand and the gun disappeared before it even hit the floor. Hunter fell forward and wrapped his arms around Emo. Emo stiffened for a second before hugging back tightly. Hunter cried into the younger mans shoulder for a little before releasing him and stepping back. The younger gave him a kind smile before his eyes widened and he shoved Hunter to the side. Hunter had only seconds so he didn't register what happened but understood instantly.

BANG!

He whipped around and saw his wife holding a gun in her shaking fingers and Emo sinking to his knees while gripping his stomach.
"Emo!"
Hunter scrabbled to his friend and put his head in his lap as he helped try to stop the bleeding.
"H-hunter." Emo said before coughing and being met with the familiar flavor of metal in his mouth.
"You h-have to promise me s-something."
Hunter nodded and bit back tears.
"Whatever h-happens get me to the house. Orion w-will know what to do."
Hunter nodded.
Emo stared into the older mans eyes. Silver stared into hazel.

'Wait? Hazel?' Emo thought

He broke his thoughts as he felt himself being lifted. Hunter had picked him up bridal style and was walking towards his wife. He set Emo down on the bed and ripped the gun from his now ex-wife's hands.
He glared at her and picked Emo back up and walked to the door but stopped to turn and shoot the woman between the eyes and throw his wedding ring on the ground before walking out.
"Whore." he hissed under his breath.
He then made his way down the stairs and ran as fast as he could from his house towards Emo's.
----------------------------
Miles.

He has run miles. Yet he hasn't even broken a sweat.
Hunter looked down at the silver eyed man who was slowly fading away in his arms. He pushed himself and ran even faster. He finally made it to the house and kicked his way through the door.
"ORION!" He yelled. The boy ran out of what looked like the kitchen and stared wide eyed and the man holding his brother.
"Follow me!" he yelled as he ran up the stairs. Hunter followed quickly. Orion opened the door to Emo's room and pointed to the bed.
"Put him there."
Hunter did as told and stepped back. Emo smiled at him before his eyes slowly fluttered closed. Hunter felt panic slowly rise in his chest.
"Come on." Orion told the man as he grabbed his wrist and dragged him out of the room.
"But he-"
"He'll be fine." Orion said with a light smile. They walked down the stairs and the boy disappeared into the kitchen once again.
"Make yourself at home. Dinners almost ready." The boy called.
Hunter walked into the living room and sat down on the couch. He heard a child giggle next to him and he flipped out. He whipped his head around and say a little boy sitting cross legged on the seat next to him.

'I thought Emo only had 1 brother'

"Uh hey there buddy." Hunter said.
The little boy's smile faded and his head slowly turned from the black TV screen towards Hunter. He looked directly into the mans eyes.
Hunter shuddered.
"Hi mister." the boy said while smiling.
"What's your name?"
"I'm Alex."
"Well in Hunter."
"Dinners ready!" Orion yelled from the kitchen.
"Can you take me?" the boy asked.
"Sure buddy." Hunter said as he scooped up the boy and carried him towards the dining room.
