chapter 53 blood on his hands

⚠️ the scene of suicide will appear but no specific words or actions ⚠️

conner's POV

i was working in the kitchen one reports on my clients, I am a dentist and I need to make sure my appointments are placed on the right time. I nearly had been fired about a year ago due to having placed two people at one time. it was a stupid accident but stupid accidents happen more easily so I rather just nor risk it again.

i was interrupted by knocking on the door, I went to the door, Xander was walking down the stairs too " I have it already" I said so he knew that he could go back to what he was doing since he had a cold, I mean just stay in bed.

I opened the door but Xander went into the kitchen probably to grab food.

I looked but I didn't see a person, there was no one here, I mean aren't the kids at school? and what adult does the bel thing? I was about to close the door but I saw a note on the floor with a little bit of blood on it.

I picked it up, to be honest with a little fear, why is there blood? Xander entered the hallway again " who was it " he asked me walking in my direction.

" I don't know " I said while I opened the note

what is that supposed to mean?

'liverpool'

" what are we supposed to do with that and why is there blood ? " Xander asked me like I should just know it " how am I supposed to know dickhead " I said slapping him on the back of his head.

i was confused for sure I mean what am I supposed to do with that, and how did that person leave so fast?

but my thoughts were broken off by the sound of a gun going off, it came out of the house that was not supposed to be entered, I mean no one that lives there is living there at the moment.

" call the cops " Xander said pushing past me running towards the house of one of our brothers friends. I pulled my phone out of my pocket and started running into that direction too but while calling 911.

Xander was able to slam the door open, and started running around the house trying to find where the gun went off. " 911 what's your emergency? "

" hello, we heard a gun go off at *********** please send the cops "

" we are sending help, is there any danger on the streets? please do not enter the home until help arrives. "

" too late ma'am "

" please leave the ho- "

her words didn't enter my head, due to the scream that came from Xander when he entered the living room of the house. " AMBULANCE DUDE, SHE SHOT HERSELF " he screamed in panic, I am pretty sure the woman on the end of my phone heard it because she started that she will send an ambulance, she started asking me questions about her condition but I never answered them, I ran into the living room, seeing my little brother without a shirt putting pressure on her wound.

I don't know how you miss while trying to kill yourself, but she did and maybe thats good, blood was coming from side f her neck, if the ambulance came on time she would be fine, I know she would.

" I don't know Ashton, I have been waiting here since the moment I found her and they haven't updated us at all. "

" you do understand thats my fr-friend right, I need to k-know if she is okay "

" she will be, I know she will be, Julia is on her way, you guys are on the way, and by the time you get here they should give me some kind of information "

" ba-baby she will be okay " " she b-better be, I love that bitch way too m-much " Emily and Ashton said to each other while both clearly crying, Xavier is probably even worse then they are, he is way too sensitive for this. and Ryder how will he be? I mean he clearly likes her.

" i will keep you guys updated okay? Xander just came back from getting food " I said to the both of them.

" not the time to eat " Ashton said trying to discipline me

" yes it is, and so will you when you get here " I hang up on him, there is no way they wont be eating until we get information about her, because I know it was like that when their sister disappeared. I had already contacted both Julia and my mum to tell them were everyone was heading too.

Julia sounded so upset to hear me say that, she genially cared for that girl even if Zina wouldn't believe that.

only a while later I saw Julia walk into the hospital towards where we were seated.

" anything yet? " she asked me in a concerned voice.

i shook my head no " but she will be okay " I tried to reassure her. she nodded at me with an unsure look.

" I thought she was doing okay, and then she randomly stared shutting us out last night, and this week we found her hurt on the front porch and I found out about other thing but she said she was fine " she said with tears running down her cheeks.

" this has nothing to do with you Julia, I mean her dad was ... him, I don't think she can be okay" I said to her, and that may not help her feel better but it was the truth, who wants a rapist of a father? he may not do it to her but just the idea? the sounds that came from that house were never normal and we should have done something but we didn't, we never did.

I gave Julia a hug ad started eating my food, I offered her some but she said she ate before I called. I mean I can scold the kids but not her she is older as me.

ashton, Cody, Xavier and Emily rushed into the hospital the same way Julia did, with tears on their cheeks, panic in their eyes but I mean it doesn't surprise me, it is their friend after all.

" nothing ? " I nodded at Emilys Question, Cody hugged his mum both of them seeking comfort in each others arms .

ashton and Xavier were both crying, Ashton kept hugging Emily while Xavier went to his twin brother for comfort, I know they needed it, their day must not have been easy at all.

" where is your brother ? " Julia asked Cody after everyone cooled down a bit feeling save with each other.

" he didn't want to come " Cody whispered, like he felt ashamed of his brother actions.

" what do you mean he loves he- " Julia stared saying but Ashton broke her off, not in a rude way.

" he doesn't Julia, he rather wanted to go hook up with Amy, or hang with the boys that hurt her, they may never have been together but ur son is an asshole and a cheater. he is the fucking reason she is in there " he said in anger, not towards Julia but towards her son, he didn't look her in her eyes, probably not wanting her to think he blamed her.

you may find it rude he did that but he was angry, he defend Ryder trough everything but he couldn't defend him here, he knew that would be inhuman.

" are you serious ? " she asked him in a voice covered in disbelieve, she couldn't believe her son could hurt the person he claimed to love to her in this way. Ashton didn't respond to her but Cody did " mum, I told him that she was in the hospital shot, and he literately said ' I don't care, I have Amy now ' what does that mean mum? they love each other ? why not now ? "

" because he doesn't love her " Xavier whispered in a pained voice.

" yes he does I have seen it I pr- "

" then where is he Cody?! where is your brother ? " Xavier yelled at him, I could see the frustration in his voice " I don't know okay, but I know he loves her " Cody said in a quiet voice not being used to be yelled at by his boyfriend.

" stop defending him " Xavier glared at him " he caused this, if she dies ...

then your brother killed her

he has her blood on his hands "
